DC General Discussion

I don't know what else TH can do to keep their customers informed. They have announcements on their social media, a newsletter, and have a presence on this forum. Also, people immediately post on the forum any info that pops up so there are ample sources to go to in order to keep up to date.

The knee-jerk "sky is falling" reaction from people in this hobby is unreal. Every little thing that doesn't happen the way they want/expect apparently means lines are cancelled, businesses are going under, or whatever other nonsense they can think of in their frantic race to be the first to post everything they "know" for some imaginary internet points.

At least there was no promise to sell the whole collection this time.

It looks like TH, for all practical purposes, has dropped its DC superhero line. I don't blame them--if you can't get product shipped and when shipped it doesn't sell, a company doesn't have much choice. But with so many MOTU pieces announced (not a property I care for) and no activity on superheroes, I guess it's over except for Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Yes, I know we're getting Flash and a very cool John Stewart. But I had such high hopes to get all the cool heroes they announced (and others they hadn't but I'm sure would have been made ... ). But with no new announcements and prices skyrocketing out of control, we're back to no new product to get excited about. To lose Deathstroke but get a MOTU Mermaid Man or whatever ... I wish them the best, but it is disappointing.

OH MY. you must know something I don't.

After seeing their impressive MOTU villains, I think TH could pull off an awesome Atrocitus. Even include Dex-Starr to match B'dg. That is all.

When it comes to TH, I want a Hal Jordan 2.0, lots of Batman variants and cool Batman villains. Speaking of which, I hope they deliver on that Deathstroke which is supposed to be shown this year.

With transparency I wonder if TH can comment on nature of amount of statues that are possible. Does the company have a limit of say, 8, statues a year. If multiple lines exist should we expect that 4 MotU pieces means 4 pieces max of all others? Or are lines held back independently via licensors and factories?

I'm so curious about the process and appreciate any information can speak to as to how it works to better understand and set expectations.

That's what what someone from TH said a little over a year ago. That was before they kind of restructured though. I'm hoping they still do him.

I'll buy it at a high price.
