Ask Matty Q&A for 10/15 (a Few Days Late)

Totally my fault this time. Toy Guru got our answers back to us on the 15th (all of them, this time!) but I was distracted winding down after New York Comic Con. My bad!

1) The new Masters of the Universe comics from DC have provided some new design twists for existing characters. What kind of collaboration is there between the Mattel design team and the comic book creative team? Do you consider the new designs on the table for MOTUC in 2014 / 2015?

It’s Preview Night at San Diego Comic-Con, and although I’m exhausted from the sheer excitement of it all, I couldn’t go to sleep without posting our first look at Masters of the Universe Classics.

San Diego Comic-Con’s Preview Night seems to be just as crowded as a weekend at the Con, but we took time to admire the DC Universe Classics figures on display. The showcase was a diorama of the Hall of Justice, with the heroes on the right and the villains on the left.
