I think that Matty is allergic to elbows on female figures.

appreciate the updates, Goldbug. glad to know the line is still growing.

I think they're allergic to selling toys, too. Would be cool to actually find the ones I'm looking for.

5) Since you are not receiving any vendor orders for the Infinite Heroes line, does this mean that the line is over?

The name is going away, but the scale will continue in 2011 under a new name.

I SAY

I am very glad about the continuing of the Scale of the Infinite Heroes in whatever form or name they choose because I believe in the potential of the line, BUT I will not get EXCITED till they tell us they will be using great sculpts and new type of articulation. By they I want articulation but I don't want basketballs for hip joints. They have alluded to this line continuing with a green lantern theme . this would be a great transition. But they will have to be better in every way than say the Superman/Batman Public Enemies figures.

I thought the Superman/Batman PE figures were ok.

I never got to see the PE figures so I wouldn't know, the one good thing is I bet those sets become very affordable in the second hand market

At SDCC, you mentioned that the Infinite Heroes line would feature Green Lantern this year. Is there any new information on what we'll see in that line? Will we be seeing single-carded figures, multi-packs, or store exclusives?
Sorry, it is still too soon to comment on the Green Lantern movie line. Look for more info in early 2011!

Is there any chance that you'll re-release some of the most hard to find Infinite Heroes figures like the Question (trenchcoat version) and Superman Prime?
Not at this time. While we know a lot of fans look for older figures, we've found they tend to be louder than numerous and we have a hard time selling enough units of a reissued figure to meet our minimum production needs.

Collectors are anxiously awaiting new Infinite Heroes figures. When will we be able to get our hands on the Wizard Shazam and Captain Atom (red and gold WildStorm version)?
That is up to retailers to place orders. If you are not seeing the latest Infinite Heroes figures at your favorite retailer, be sure to let them know you want more! Retailers need to place orders before we can go into production.

KI - With DC Universe Online gaining more and more popularity, could we see a new line of figures based on the gaming property?
Matty - If you look closely at our Infinite Heroes line we already did this already!

KI - We didn't see any DC Infinite Heroes figures at New York Comic-Con, is the line dead or was nothing ready to show at the con?
Matty - There has not been enough retailer interest to keep IH going at this time. The scale however will continue in the Green Lantern movie line in 2011!

OK that not enough retailer interest line is BS! Over the past month Walmart & Meijer have renewed their interest by ordering the newest waves of figures!
I'm even trading for a gold Captain Atom from someone who got it at a Walmart.

Got a gold Capt. Atom in a trade...

[Regardless]

Any word or news about the Infinite Heroes/Green Lantern/whatever the 3.75" line is now being called? I loved this line, not necessarily because of the quality but because of the size of the figures.

We are all just waiting for Toy Fair in New York. That is where Mattel will announce something on it.

Any updates or pictures?

Well it's been a long time.
I saw TJ Maxx had a few of the gold Capt. Atoms.
I got 2 for trade. The only ones I am missing are the Heatwave/Trickster/Flash set, helmeted Luthor Corps trooper & Killer Croc.
I suppose I wouldn't say no to a Hush just to have another villain. Those were plenty here but I never cared for that Batman villain. It's a shame we never got a Penguin or Harley Quinn or Poison Ivy.

Now they've got those 4.25 inch junior Justice League happy meal toys.
I would like the Hall of Justice façade but they split it up in way too many parts for it to look any good when assembled.
