Mattel Reveals DC Universe All-Stars Action Figures For 2012


First Wave for DC Universe All-Stars
With news on the rise we got today all over the toysites, as you might know currently Mattel's DC Universe Classics line will wrap with its 20th wave, But luckyly enough, it has not ended, this line and is probabbly still worth getting for its 6 Inch size, as you know, Marvel stop all 6"inch figure line up, and went 3.5"Inch just like Star Wars line. 

This is a positive sign from DC Comics, with more of the toymaker's 6" superhero figures being released through the DC Comics All-Stars line in 2012. Found this on BBTS,  on MattyCollector, the first retail mix of figures from this new line will include Larfleeze, Superboy Prime in Anti-Monitor, an evil Flashpoint Plastic Man and Batman Beyond.

The All-Stars line gives collectors their first non DC Direct Larfleeze, Flashpoint Plastic Man and Superboy Prime. Batman Beyond is a re-release from the 4th DC Universe Classics wave, which also included an unmasked variant of the character.

Though the Batman Beyond figure seems to come with a batarang (But its exactly the same as the Universe Line) and Larfleeze has his Orange Central Power Battery, accessories seem sparse on the other two figures. This might change by the time the toys arrive at retail, but compared to the DCUC SDCC 2010 exclusive Plastic Man's numerous rubbery attachments, this Flashpoint All-Star definitely comes up short in the accessory department.

Available at BTTS for pre-order and will be available next year.
