Mattel Reveals DC Theme for 2010 and DC Universe Classics Wave 12 Packaged Pics

I’ve gotta hand it to Mattel – they know how to make dynamic packaging. I like the theme (congrats to many who guessed it would be DC’s 75th anniversary) and the new layout is clear and vibrant. Wave 12 is looking sweet. Mary Batson will be a 50/50 variant and the glow-in-the-dark Spectre will be a chase figure.

2010 is DC Comics 75th!

Hey DC toy fans!

As we get close to 2010 we wanted to reveal the all new look for DC Universe toys from Mattel! Every DC Universe Classic and Infinite Hero figure in 2010 will be in an all new package which will include a DC 75th collector button featuring vintage DC art!

You’ll be able to start your 75th collection with Wave 12 of Classics, on sale in early Spring 2010. Enjoy the pictures below and happy holidays!

AFP Ask Matty Round-Up for 12/16/9 – Redux

Toy Guru was kind enough to resend answers that were lost in the cloud – well, at least 4 out of 5 of them! 😀

1. We were glad to hear that sales of the DC Universe Classics Color of Fear 2-pack were strong. Were they strong enough for you to consider additional multi-packs via MattyCollector.com? If not, what are you thinking about for exclusive DCUC product on MattyCollector.com?

Unfortunately none of the DCUC 2 packs performed well enough to keep the assortment going in 2010. We are looking at other ways of bringing DCUC figures to Mattycollector.com, but there will not be any additional 2 packs at this time.

Last Toys R Us Free Shipping Promotion of the Year – 12/17 Only

Just got an email – Toys R Us is having their last free shipping promotion of the year, today, 12/17 only.

I took a quick look, and there’s a big mix of stuff that you might want to pick up if you skipped it earlier. For example, they have the Sue and Johnny Storm Marvel Legends 2-pack, the Giants of Justice Flash (also on sale), and a bunch of Joes and Marvel Universe figures in the action figure section their free shipping store. Some of the stuff is already out of stock, like the UFC figures, so you might want to check this out early.

The free shipping store goes away at the end of today. Happy Shopping!

AFP Ask Matty Round-Up for 12/16/9

It looks as though the answers to our questions for this round may have been lost in the cloud, so if my colleagues will indulge me, I’ll pick five of the best questions and answers from around the internet toy community.

The first answer may not have been that informative, but it had Jitsu. 😀

1. Figures.com – The Four Horsemen did a fantastic job with the Jitsu 200X staction. Is this character on tap for the near future or do fans have a long wait ahead of them?

NECA Masters of the Universe Jitsu Staction

We can’t comment on unannounced figures, sorry! Jitsu is a favorite around here too.

DC Universe Classics Wave 13 Retailer Pics

These pictures come from BigBadToyStore, where they have just listed pre-orders for individual figures from DC Universe Classics Wave 13 mostly for $16.99 each. Based on how these are priced, I consider this another confirmation that the unbandaged variant of Negative Man will be a chase figure (he’s the only one listed for more at $19.99), and that the classic and modern Cheetah variants will be packed 50/50. Fans of the modern Cheetah, unfortunately she’s already pre-sold out.

BBTS also has several sets available for pre-order, and Enchanted Toy Chest has a set of 8 up for pre-order.
