New York Comic Con 2011 – Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics Panel (Updated)
Mattel hosted its Masters of the Universe panel earlier today. Because the room was deep in the bowels of the Javits Center, there was no cell phone coverage and consequently no signal for the live broadcast. The upload following the panel also got corrupted, so my apologies if you have been trying to watch the the video. I uploaded the video again, and it’s all better now!

New York Comic Con 2011 – Mattel DC Universe Classics
At San Diego Comic-Con, Mattel announced the start of the Club Infinite Earths subscription for DC Universe Classics and a shift back to more mainstream character mixes for their retail line. A lot of you took this as a harbinger of the demise of DC Universe Classics at retail. The subscription failing to hit the sales target originally set by the Mattel team, was yet another signal of impending doom.
Mattel hopes to set the record straight, showing off new figures for Club Infinite Earths, the retail line, and some more retailer exclusive 2-packs. And, yes, the “last” DC Universe Classics wave in production form, the Nekron Collect and Connect wave. Is it enough to put the collector community at ease? You tell me.

New York Comic-Con 2011 – Diamond Select Toys Minimates Giveaways
With The Walking Dead set to return to AMC this Sunday, and Halloween around the corner, it looks like zombies are going to have a strong showing at New York Comic Con. Diamond Select Toys is on that bandwagon with a Maximum Zombies Minimates 2-pack and a Zombie civilian Minimates giveaway.

DST is also giving away a very limited number of Minimates from their MAX line – just more victims for the zombie horde, I’m afraid.
