So I just got back from work and saw Batzarro is in the Matty "news" as a 2014 figure. Sorry if anyone is already talking about this, but is this because he was swapped out in favor of something else in December 2013 or is he just delayed?

The pessimist in me thinks its just a case of whoever posted it not realizing he's 2013 unlike the 2014 He-man figs above him.

Yeah, a typo like that would be delicious. Like they just can't get enough kicking DC fans when they are hurting.

The Saint Walker in me wants to hope it means they swapped him out for Ice or Superboy. The realist in me knows it's just a typo, as has been said.

It's Occam's Razor. If my two options are Mattel doing something most fans seemingly would cheer or someone at Mattel not knowing what year it is, seems like the latter is the simpler explanation. But I'd love to be proven wrong.

That's a wonderful way of putting it. I kind of want to know why Ra's isn't mentioned if it is just about figures we already know about that aren't out yet.

This would upset me... if I lived in Bizarro World. I'd be so happy if Ice was the December figure (like she should've been) but I assume this is just a typo.

I assume it's just a typo as well. But, hey, optimistically...doesn't MOTUC swap out figures occasionally? So maybe they flipped the schedule around just to get Ice in there, and they'll offer Batzarro Day-Of on the site as opposed to forcing him on subscribers. I mean, we know they're aware of the fan consensus, since figures like Doomsday popped up, Mirror Master got interchageable gun-heads, and Flashpoint Plas never reared his head. So maybe we'll be getting Ice officially in the sub, instead of having to worry about EA sellouts?

Hey, we can dream, right?

Confirmed typo... ah well.

Now that I've got Ocean Master and Ras, I wish there was a way to cancel my subscription so I wouldn't have to waste my time trying to sell Batzarro on eBay. I just know he'll be impossible to get my money back on just like Red Dud and Phantom Stranger.
