It’s that time again for Ask Mattel. If you’d like to ask Mattel a question about any of its brands, leave them as comments to this post. I’ll pick five out of the bunch to be answered on September 17th, 2012. All questions need to be submitted by 11:59 PM CST on August 31st.

I should have posted this yesterday, but I didn’t receive the answers until late in the evening, so I decided to save them for today. Anyway, these are the answers for the August 15th session of Ask Mattel. We’ve got a wide range of questions this time, so let’s just jump right in, shall we?

If the Superboy and Miss Martian 2 packs sell well enough, could we possibly see more 6″ Young Justice 2 packs in the future? Maybe some characters from the second season, Invasion? Wonder Girl, Beast Boy, Lagoon Boy, Nightwing, Tim Drake Robin perhaps?

No. The only reason we can offer these  is because the sculpts were done. We don’t have the resources for additional sculpting. This last set is a “gift” for fans (if we get the min order).

Will the Watchmen figures come with character appropriate accessories? I noticed at SDCC that Dr. Manhattan was posed with no accessories and that Rorschach came with a grapple gun, but will he also come with a gas gun? Perhaps including Bubastis with Ozymandias? Some cool gadgets to go with Owl Man? Will Comedian come with his guns, and maybe a second head with the S&M mask?

During SDCC, the Ask Matty schedule got a little crazy, but everything is back to normal. If you’d like to ask Mattel a question about any of its brands, leave them as comments to this post. I’ll pick five out of the bunch to be answered on September 1st, 2012. All questions need to be submitted by 11:59 PM CST on August 14th.
