    i think they announced this pack last year. at the time i was ready to buy it. since then i've had to scale back on my action figure purchases so i wont be able to get this. and that's a shame cause they'd look great on my shelf.

    As bad as it sounds I don't think Digital River has the logistics and understanding to be able to cancel the sub.

    Think about it if you had 50-75% subbed in to cancel all those is going to take one hell of an effort for a company that can hardly ship the items you buy from their own bundle page on any given day.

    i'm not saying they will cancel it, but it IS an option. going by their current stance, that is what we should expect...

    ...of course we know better and it wouldn't be the first time matty faked left and went right.

    So why does Mattel cancel this line?

    Is it because the new Reboot?

    I'm confused...

    Would have been nice to have an actual Invisible Kid figure rather than a empty space...

    It's DC, not Mattel. DC wants to push endless Superman and Batman variants, with some other major characters thrown in. DCUC is the only way fans of DCUC will get obscure characters and finish up teams.

    Am I right, that DC's decisions with the Reboot and DCUC are not very popular?

    I hope they go through with the sub regardless. If retail is going to suck for diversity, I think the "cherry pickers" will still help sell out the day-of sale stuff.

    I can say for 100% certain I will buy Atrocitus, Starman and Poison Ivy from Matty. I can't buy the sub though.

    Ok so this isn't about the figures exactly.

    I got my subscription order today and inside was a coupon for $5 off a DCU 6 inch figure. However, when I flipped it over I see that the coupon expires TODAY. I got my box at 8:30 PM, most stores around me that sell DCU are open til 10 PM, so in essence this coupon is only good for an hour and a half. This is really lame of Mattel, what about all those people who haven't gotten their orders yet? They will be getting expired coupons.

    This is an important announcement. This is flight 121 to Los Angeles. If your travel plans today do not include Los Angeles, now would be a perfect time to disembark.

    Scored the Mad Love 2-pack at TRU tonight. Can't believe that outside of the "nude" modern Cheetah, the Un-Men & The Crime Syndicate 5-pack, that I'm 100% caught up with DCUC again...

    Check your local ToysRus, DUCU single figs are on sale for $9.99. Add that coupon and you got a good deal. I went in last week and got 4 figs for $20 (give or take)...

    Am I the only one that thinks the Mad love pack is a waist of money? I mean, we have a Joker with the red hood colors on, but does not include his helmet and cape, and a Harley that is from Wave 2, and for what, $33?

    I guess it's for anyone who was a fan of the comic and wants the new Joker or who missed out on Harley...

    Depends, I never saw Harley and many wanted one with a better face paint.

    Add to that technically I haven't gotten any of the figures for Classics that I had already gotten in Superheroes or Batman so technically it's a new joker for me.

    To me the Captain Marvel and Black Adam is more of a waste of money but apparently people had trouble finding Black Adam. Oddly enough I had the exact opposite problem with those two.

    I don't live near a Toys R Us but I just had a chance to swing by one. All They had were 2 Eclipses (which I can still get cheaper at TJ Maxx and Tuesday Morning if I actually wanted him) and 1 Nightwing variant. I missed out on the 1st Nightwing so for $10 I figured I'd pick up the variant one. He actually had his own sku and wasn't part of the sale despite him hanging on the pegs with the other figures. I asked the clerk about it and she had a manager check it out. Since I had found him among the other figures (they apparently took down his specific peg) and he was the last one left, the manager let me have have him for the sale price. I didn't have to haggle with him or anything. He was a pretty nice dude.
