Well not really. They do that all the time. The fact that they don't have a single accessory is the only thing preventing me to get these. Would kill them to pit some extra hands? They have the molds ready. Just a matter of repaint them. They could fix the fact that WW has such small hands for instance and Hawkgirl with no mace? Doesn't make sense at all.

Right? The prototypes they showed off at San Diego Comic Con last year had different hands, some of them, so alternate hands are possible, and it's clear from one of the hands she got that Hawkgirl was supposed to have a mace. It's weird that they would pare them all down so much.

It's not surprising they are re-releasing the JL figures to the general public now but I do wish they would have included some accessories with them. I guess that would be salt to the wound for those who got the streaming service versions though.

Hey, I'll buy 'em. With Mattel out of the picture, and Spin Masters and McFarlane not exactly forthcoming with plans, I gotta get my DC fix somehow.

Also glad to see the Justice Leaguers coming for us who didn't subscribe to their streaming. Batman and Superman, come to me!

I seem to recall Todd telling someone on youtube that he'd be keeping everything under wraps until after Mattel's licensing agreement expired at the end of the year.

Perhaps a change of plans or the date was only tentative, my guess is that we might see the first wave being released on the first quarter. Even so, it seems that DCC doesnt want to invest much more in its figures, much less to develop a new collection of figures, it is mostly focusing on statues or niche high end stuff.

I dont think we will see any McFarlane DC until after Toy Fair in Feb. March or April would be my guess for the earliest. Keep in mind that is just a guess but being weve seen or heard nothing from them so far on the DC front that seems the most likely scenario. Debut at Toy Fair, then solicit and then release.

Glad I paid for that crappy subscription to get these. Thing is they never really sold there so now they have to try to get them sold somewhere

Ah, my guess is that they are trying to make some money with little to new tooling and giving Macfarlane a free path and for its Dc stuff, yeah just my guess, but I don't think it's smart idea for two companies to make figures with similar characteristics, especially for DCC.

With the seeming delay of the McFarlane stuff which was original hoped to be out in early January and now seems more likely mid-year at earliest, these zombie figures felt to me like something cheap and easy DCC came up with to fill that void of no DC figures during the beginning of the year.

I am glad they rereleasing Justice League figures, hopefully theres more to come maybe ? Zombie heroes looks surprisingly good considering theres only new headsculptsand paint . I think some new parts would do good but I guess Dcc doesnt have budget for that anymore.
