Mattel has had some issues in the past with their Comic Con information leaking out before their reveals at the con… and it may be happening again. EntertainmentEarth.com has a listing for a new line called “Batman Unlimited” that sounds like the successor to the Batman: Legacy line. It also sounds like this is how we might get that “Super Powers” deco Penguin we were shown, but has never had a home. They call them both 6″ and 7″ scale figures in the text below, but the $17.99 price point per individual figure sounds more like 6″.
Batman Unlimited Wave 1 Action Figure Case
- Batman and his greatest foes and allies through the ages!
- The legacy of the Dark Knight and his allies and foes are all captured in exquisite detail in this Batman Unlimited action figure line!
- Articulated and detailed figures with display stand!
This Wave 1 case contains 6 individually packaged 6-inch scale action figures (subject to change):
- Batgirl New 52
- Penguin (classic comic)
- Batman New 52 Redeco
Assortment breakdown not determined at this time. These 7-inch scale action figures draw inspiration from the editorial heritage of the brand (comic style). Each figure is highly detailed and articulated for Batman fans!

Sometimes these sorts of listings mean nothing and it’s just a matter of retailers jumping the gun, like with the Mattel/DCUC Reign of the Supermen line that was taken from a sheet of names just used to gauge retailer interest. But more often than not they pop up as legit.
Which will this one be? I bet we’ll find out next week.
UPDATE-
Looks like fans have found a second listing for a new “DC Unlimited” figure line also on EntertainmentEarth.com. This new line looks to replace the canceled “DC All-Stars” line that was to replace DCUC at retail. This new line is rooted in DC Entertainment’s “New 52″ relaunch.
