As part of their 5th anniversary, ActionFigureInsider sat down with Mattel’s Scott Neitlich (AKA Toy Guru) to talk about the current state of the Justice League Unlimited line.

Here is an excerpt from the first part of the interview…

AFi: Was there one of the 4 packs that sold better/quicker than the others (without getting specific into numbers?

TG;  Not really. The four packs all sold about the same, which is good in the sense that it told us what the “baseline” is for JLU fans. However, this baseline number is also much lower than the minimum number we need to keep the line going.

AFi: Have you seen the threads on Afi that show new JLU characters that can be made using all existing parts, that wouldn’t need any new pieces, just a new paint job?  Does that sort of information help you?

TG: It does and it doesn’t help. While there are characters that fans may say, “Only need a new paint job,” that doesn’t always work for DC Comics and Warner Bros. who may request some new parts before they agree to us releasing a certain figure and do not always want their characters released as repaints only.
