Justice League Direct

Next spring Airmax Animated teams with DC Direct to bring you a line of Justice League Unlimited figures that you will only be able to find at your local comic store. We caught up with Airmax to discuss the upcoming line and here's what he had to say:

"Well, first off, this line is in scale with the current Mattel JLU line. That was one of the things that really attracted me to this project in the first place."

That's not all, the other benefit of this direct market line is that it opens the door for several character who other wise wouldn't, or couldn't be made for this line to appear in figure form:

"Yeah man, isn't that great?! That was the other aspect of this project that really made this deal irresistible to me. The chance work on characters like the Question, who is so important to the cartoon, but who previously had been off limits was just too much for me to resist."

And the list of names doesn't stop at Charlton characters either - apparently every character under the DC banner is free game. That includes Charlton characters, Wildstorm characters and every character that has appeared in the Animated DCU thus far (including characters from the Batman Animated series, Superman the Animated Series, Batman Beyond and Static).

The future looks bright for JLU fans - so bright in fact that we suggested including a free pair of sunglasses with every figure:

"Um! no! that's just dumb. Really, really dumb." Airmax responded before wandering off muttering something about new sneakers he had to buy and projects he still had to procrastinate on.
