Sounds like DCIH will be completely revamped for next year, which is good because the competition's figures are superior.

Ask Matty Dec 1 Answers for Toyark.com
2. You recently posted on your Face Book page that you have gotten early samples in for the MOTUC Mossman figure. While you said the flocking was not quite the right color, what about the application itself? Did the partial flocking work out well so he is still “mossy” but his articulation is not inhibited?
Yes, he still has Moss covering 80-90% of his body. The areas we could not flock include the shoulders, knees and elbow joints.
4. I think it is safe to say that the reaction to Adora’s skirt/bodysuit piece (the portion below the belt, covering the hips) has been mixed. Many fans feel it is too fat and clunky, as you looking at ways to make it look more streamlined and feminine for future figures like Glimmer?
We went right to the Four Horsemen for this one:
“We will definitely try and push things in that direction. The biggest issue at this point is that if the bodysuit is cut too much higher, the unsightly (yet functional) articulation will show through. When we designed the female base figure we had to make something that would work on as many characters as possible. The design as is may fit some characters a little better than others. In the future if there is room for additional tooling things may change, but until then we will try and address this issue as best we can.”
4) Which MOTU/POP and DC Comics character, which has not yet appeared, is especially popular in your company? Whom would you like to see as a figure?
Buzz Off, Man-E-Face and Spikor are pretty popular around here. In the POP world, Frosta, Catra and the Star Sisters would be great. For DCU, Legion of Superheroes, WWII characters and Kamandi are personal favorites of Toy Guru!At the end of the day, tooling availability, spreading out A list characters and licensor approvals all come into play with character selection. Just because our design team likes a figure, does not guarantee it makes it into the line. We also look A LOT at fan requests online for inspiration!
BZZURKK – We don’t currently have a Masters of the Universe comic to wet are comic reading appetites. Why not have a short (5-10) page comic with each figure?
Mattel - Oh, I hear you on fan demand for this. Unfortunately comics are just not something in the cards right now.
1) Any idea if there is going to be a completely new sculpt for the release of MOTUC Prince Adam (different build and features) like the 200x series, or will it be a modified MOTUC He-Man base model?
In time we are looking to do both.
2) On facebook you said that you had a packaged Battlecat but the package was damaged, when will we see him in his package?
Once we get a correct package in!
3) With the success of the MOTU Art book, will there be another one at any stage?
Not as this time. This was a one time offer.
4) Any possibility of a 3 3/4" set of MOTU figures and playsets at some point?
Very cool suggestion but nothing is planned right now.
5) We understand we probably won't get any castles unless a movie comes out, but is there any chance of vehicles like the Battle Ram, Attack Track, or Wind Raider?
We’ll have to see how Battle Cat performs before committing to anything larger or more tooling intensive like a vehicle. Vehicles are also tough since they can only be used once vs. Battle Cat which can also be reissued as Panthor and Clawdeen.
2. Mr. Rant asks: I’m content with the Wonder Twins Eagle standing in for Zoar and Screech, but is there any chance of the birds getting their harnesses anytime soon?
Yes, we do have plans for the perch and harness for the MOTU birds in all the needed colors! Stay tuned.
3. Manekochan asks: Thanks for the Plastic Man answers. I think he’s the announced figure I’m most excited about (unannounced is Ambush Bug! You gotta make him!). What unreleased figure, across any of the lines you cover, are you most looking forward to seeing hit the toy aisles?
BattleCat from MOTU Classics is a huge favorite around here as are finishing the rest of the Ghostbuster crew. In the DC world, our Retro Action vintage cloth figures (starting with Green Arrow, available Dec 15th only on Mattycollector.com) is going to be great!
Q1: After the re-releases of He-Man and Skeletor, which other figures will be getting re-released? Will we get another chance to pick up Man-at-Arms and Beast Man from Matty or is the only way to get these off of the secondary market?
A1: Yes, we do plan to get to more re-releases in time. Not every figure will be re-released, but the main A list characters like He-Man and Skeletor will.
1) Now that Evil Lyn has been confirmed as the Club Eternia April figure, will she include tons of packed in accessories like Teela and will she have interchangeable heads as well?
Quote:That remains to be announced!
2) Aside from the Evil Lyn announcement, will Matty be revealing any other Club Eternia 2010 figure before Toy Fair?
Quote:Likely yes, but we can’t confirm quite yet.
3) Is there any chance that next year’s MOTUC release schedule may include a Snakeman or two?
Quote:We need to wait to see how the bonus figures do before announcing any more 2010 figures, but we are eager to get to the Snake Men!
4) The MOTUC King Randor figure looks great but it has absolutely no 200X influence in it’s design. Is there a possibility we may get a 200X-styled Randor in the near future?
Quote:Yes, we could get to a 200X version of Randor in time (in the classics style mind you).
5) Will the Bonus Wun-Dar figure come in the traditional blister card package as the rest of the line and will the Eternia map be inserted in the toy package as well?
Quote:Wun-Dar will come on a traditional card with bio and cross sell to fit perfectly in your mint on card collection. The poster will be packed out separately but shipped together.
1.) Tom-Tom asks: How expensive would it be in the short run to switch to an alternative-source plastic like Thermoplastic starch biodegradable plastics? That way, there’d be lower production costs and lower MSRPs in the long run.
A cool suggestion but not something logistically we can switch to.
2.) Mark asks: Why are you giving your new WWE figures great cloth capes and coats, etc., but continuing with plastic capes on MOTUC and DCUC?
This is an aesthetic choice made by each brand.
3.) Dayraven asks: With the majority of MOTUC figures so far requiring only minor new tooling with each new figure, what will happen when the line exhausts these characters and all that’s left to produce are characters that will need completely unique tooling (like Ram-Man or Two-Bad)?
We have a long term plan in place to spread the fully tool’d figures out mixed with low tool figures each year. This helps make the line economical for Mattel while still getting all the characters out for fans. In 2009, Teela was a fully tool’d figure after all!
Matty answered my question regarding the Princess Of Power figures!
Ah, too bad about Clayface. I wonder if mine will hold up years from now. I understand why Mattel went for bendy arms but the bad thing is that they attract dust and can get dirty very easily because they are sticky.
Heck yeah on She-Ra figures, AND DOUBLE HECK YES ON THE DCIH ANSWERS!
I can't wait to see what they churn out now!
=D

That last answer really sucked. That is not even what was asked!
Ask Matty Jan 15 Answers for Toyark.com
Excited about the bigger figures from DCSH who might be revisited as C&C figures. I'm guessing this possibly means a bigger Mongol, bigger Doomsday(a lot of fans complained about his size), and possibly a bigger Bane. I WANT THEM ALL!
As for DCIH and new articulation, I take it this referred to the Martian Manhunter wave. Eh, they're alright, basically the same upgraded articulation from the Public Enemies sets.
Ask Matty March 1st Answers for Toyark.com
Meh the DCIH [email protected] Toy Fair doesn't count for new articulation.
I can see why they didn't want to answer the license question.
*Fingers crossed for a Harley Quinn reissue*
Good to hear that they are planning on getting back out some of the bad guys from other waves
