Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

That is epic. I can't afford it, nor do I have room in my place for it, but if I could get it, I would keep the figures inside the casings. They look awesome like that.

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

That's a great looking set, but probably too pricey for me. Would really like that Karate Kid though.

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

Two small DCUC announcements have just hit my inbox, so I figured I'd pass them on to everyone....

. As reported on the main page of the site, it appears Winners is stocking DCUC figures at $7.99 according to AFN members lars573 and pandaprime. Currently, the sitings were made at Winners in BC and Nova Scotia and seem to consist of figures from waves 11 (Kilowog), 13 (Trigon) & 15 (Validus).

. According to the Matty Collector forums, it seems Mattel is trying to move the DCUC Infinate Earth's Club subscription forward.

Said Toy Guru on the sites forum:

The final tally was around 60-62% (I’ll need to ask the DC team for an exact number). We are literally reviewing the numbers to see if their is anyway to go forward now that we are under 100%. It may take another week or so before we will know an answer. Fans have been so passionate, but in the end it comes down to whether their are enough of them to move forward with this program!

Thanks to Mattel for the update!

Wave 15 is Validus, wave 14 is Ultra Humanite. I've got a alien monster leg not a albino ape's leg.

Re: Up-And-Coming DC Universe Classics!

Two small DCUC updates have once again entered my mailbox this morning...

. Here is the latest update from Toy Guru regarding what's going on with the DCUC Club Infinite Earth's at this point:

New from Toy guru:
"If the sub goes through it will be at the advertised price.

However, we are exploring the possibilty of higher prices for non sub holders who buy product day of (i.e. cherry pickers). This is similar to how magazines cost more at a news stand vs. having a subscription. This is only one of many options we are exploring based on the subscription numbers we got (less then the needed... 100%) and is not at all the direction we are for sure going in. Right now we are just exploring many options to see if anything is possible to keep the sub alive based on the lower then expected sub interest.

But for those who bought a sub, if the sub goes forward you are locked in to the advertised prices even if maybe possibly day of prices goes up slightly (1 or 2 dollars).

If the sub is canceled, yes of course full refunds will be given for any charges!


. TRU Canada has gotten in touch with me and has said that Canadian fan's will want to check their local TRU and online for the next batch of Batman Legacy figures (Wave 2) around early to mid September as they should be showing up at Canadian retailers around that time.

Thanks to MattyCollector and TRU Canada for today's updates!

Catman and Batgirl yes. Seems like Batman though will come on his own as the version that includes Batmite is a K-Mart exclusive and won't be available in Canada.
