Mattel DC Figures

It is. From what I see from there basic figures, with what I like about the articulation of the MOTU Scareglow figure, I think its gonna be hard for me to resist. The only thing that will give me pause is the Era's they choose to lean into and how easy it is to stand them next to my exisitng DC universe classics. I still have those and most of the MCfarlane stuff which I liked, but mostly bought cause I collect. My son who is now 22 really liked the MCF stuff when it started and buying them was something that got us through the pandemic as crazy as that may sound. Now though I have 2 DC collections and probably about to start a 3rd LOL!
 
Could it be to help differentiate between the two line, the basics will lean a bit more to "modern" looks while the collector line will lean more towards "classic"?
 
The non-action feature Core Superman is classic, I’m sure they are spreading the “looks” around.
 
I don't expect to buy too many DC "core" figures from the kids' line, but might get that armored Batman. That looks pretty good!

I do hope that they get to do a bunch of civilian figure at this $12 price point though. Most of my remaining most desired figures in this scale are civvies or unmade LOSH characters with a random Jesse Quick, Weather Wizard, Congorilla or Johnny Thunder thrown in there.

There have been solicits for upcoming books provided by DC that at the end of DCKO starting around July some of the heroes will be going back to the well and wearing their New 52 and Rebirth outfits. Not sure why. But I specifically remember seeing a pic of Batman fighting Bruce Wayne (An homage to the cover of Web of Spider-Man #117) and Batman is wearing his rebirth suit.
