AFP Ask Matty Round-Up for 3/15/10

Here’s the latest Ask Matty Q&A. Thanks to Toy Guru and Mattel!

1. With Guy Gardner coming soon in the Green Lantern 5-pack, it dawned on me – we’re pretty darned close to having the core team members from the JLI. I won’t ask about our favorite Oreo-craving Martian, but will it be more difficult to get Fire and Ice in a regular Collect and Connect assortment because they’re female and not that active in today’s comics? And since Black Canary has seen a more classic release recently, is her JLI look off the table for the foreseeable future?

We’d love to get to all the figures and in the deco you mentioned. All are possible candidates but we can’t comment on unannounced figures!

Reminder: Masters of the Universe Classics Moss Man, Stratos and More On Sale 3/15

Monday is the MattyCollector.com sale date for March, and Mattel has been warning that while they’re working on the issues with Digital River, we’re likely to see the same kind of performance this month. For more details see this post on Facebook about Moss Man’s production, this post about 3/15 sales info and this post about the Club Eternia subscription process on the MattyCollector.com forums. The net – fixing the production numbers and ordering issues will take some time.
