NEWS: Mattel Cancels Retro-Action DC Line


Mattel has announced the cancellation of their Retro-Action DC superheroes line.

The 8'' dolls - Mattel's homage to the classic Mego 8'' figures of the 70s - were axed due to ''customer interest [not being] high enough to keep [the toys] going either at retail or online past the 2011 offerings,'' according to a spokesperson speaking as part of the Mattel Q&A, as reported at Infinite Hollywood.

Whilst I'm personally not a fan of these 8'' retro-figures, it is a shame to see yet another toy line being withdrawn.
