2 rehashs DC ladies and a Batman PF ?
We even didn't see the Catwoman one so basically just the Batman from Begins and the Huntress PF ?
WOW, that's so lame... By far the worst brand of the Con.

Yep, they should just give the 1/4 license over to Tweeterhead at this point. You know Chad would actually take some chances.

It's probably the Tweeterhead you're talking about. She'll be coming soon.

I'll take banners if they're of new characters.

I don't mind revists because I know they sell well for newer collectors but hopefully they got the revisits out of their system with this show.

I say that knowing full well I'm buying at least one of the revisits from this con and I'm swaying towards two.

Look, I get the need for rehashes. I honestly do. The characters are popular. They’ll sell. But when for your major licenses you ONLY have rehashes? That’s f$@king embarrassing. Full stop. You’re not a company for the fans anymore. Be honest. You want new customers to hit that bottom line. I get it, COVID. But this is where the company was headed before COVID. They become less like that maverick collectible company and more like a behemoth unwilling to take a risk anymore for fear of a bad balance sheet. Either lean in to being true Mavericks like you were even 10 years ago or go full soulless corporate. Don’t try to sell me the veneer of being a company for the fans.

That’s why I’m annoyed.

Honestly, I don't even mind a rehash BUT the ratio should be at least 3 new for every 1 rehash. SSC is giving us the exact opposite which is why I'm frustrated.
