It was cool, however, It still bugs Me how Mattel handled all of these series from DCUC to MOTUC among others, IMO it could have been better :roll:

I sadly agree...their choices were often skeptical for me (especially towards the end) and their whole deal with Digital River was the nail in the coffin for Matty.

Overal I thoroughly loved collecting this line; which gave me the same collecting feels as digging through boxes of Super Powers and Star Wars as a kid, straight off the pallet at ShopKo. So much fun there!

I was sad to see Mattel lose the license because they could’ve continued to work give us more (classic and modern) figures. McFarlane is doing a very good job nowadays, besides the larger scale; they’ve definitely upped their design game. Still, I’ll only ever get a few here or there of his line.
I am one of the 63%....
