I heard back today, and the price is supposed to be $59.95. I've updated the news item just now, but wanted to mention it in case you were interested and didn't want to keep checking that page over and over.
Thats about $58.59 dollars more than it should be. I am a HUGE die-hard DKR fan,and even I have to admit those figure were a rare misfire from DC Direct. The sculpts and articulation were just poor,and now they're re-releasing them with LESS accessories and crappy paint-jobs? Just...no. Especially considering Mattel is releasing a DKR Batman in the upcoming Legacy line that looks amazing. I am honestly worried about the future of DC Direct (or DCC or whatever the hell they're calling it these days). Whomever approved this set should be ashamed.
Along those lines, how on earth have they never made the Mutant Leader? That always seemed like a no-brainer to me, especially when they released several series of Elseworlds characters. That just seems like a figure that would sell and sell well.
