Welcome to the Analysis. Hope all is well with everyone.

This weekend is Toy Fair, the second biggest toy news information event of the year, second only to San Diego Comic Con. Early news is that DC Collectibles is making 6" DC action figures. These are very similar to the DC Classics we all know and love. All the information can be found here, including some great pictures:

I have to say these are nice, however I am not going to dive into these. The cost ($25 each) is prohibitive for me, and if it is not going to be on the pegs at Target/Wal-Mart/Toys-R-Us I am probably not going to find them. I can see maybe getting figures that weren't made in the 6" form in DC Classics (Mera I am looking for you to be made) but I am not going to spend $25 to purchase another Batman/Superman/Flash that is quite similar to the one I already have. But.... these do look cool.

DC announces post Convergence titles - the end of the New 52. It is not bringing back the pre 52 universe, however they are 'overhauling' the line. They are keeping some titles, changing a few other titles, and adding a few others. Here is the link to the story, and below that is a list of the titles:
