- Again 6" figures totally aren't disappearing from retail but from the sound of it the more obscure characters will be sold online through MattyCollector and their new DCUC subscription service however things are still being ironed out so nothing is really set in stone at this point other than the figures announced today for the subscription service will only be available online.
- Oversize figures will be offered in the DC subscription service like with MOTU and the ones sold this year will be $30 figures.
- No Batmobile planned for the Legacy Line right now.
