well since there is no comments on it yet I guess we will have to see what will happen. I wonder if all projects that have been announced and on order will still go forth and then the line will be discontinued or if they are stopping everything now.

I read that everything already in production will get finished because they all ready paid the factories, but that is all.

well if DC statues are going to be outsourced (like the CoverGirls line and the Batman Black and White line) hopefully whoever will be producing them will keep them in scale with what is currently produced.

Just read this.

That is awful news. DC Direct/Collectibles was affordable because there was no licensing cost and employed a ton of people.

I love their stuff especially they do Sandman and the Endless; there are lots of good memories and statues from their company. This is a sad news.

I still want that Artgem Catwoman in BTAS costume in Designer Series to be partnered with my Harley BTAS... they haven't done Poison Ivy also in that cartoonish stylistics.
