Can you tell us approximately how many months in the remainder of this year will feature a bonus figure for MOTUC?

There will be three to four "quarterly" basic-size figures in 2010. Sometimes, these are figures we prepare as a backup in case a planned monthly figure slips in the schedule. If, and when, that happens the bonus figure will simply ship as a monthly figure in its place.

Aside from what has been revealed at Toy Fair, will there be any additional reveals of upcoming MattyCollector.com figures before Comic-Con?

Possibly, but nothing to announce yet.

Based on the acid vial accessory that was shown at the Masters of The Universe 'Under the Influence Art Show', it is obvious that a Keldor figure is coming. Since you have already stated that King Grayskull will be re-releleased later this year and they are both heavily influenced by the 200X cartoon it would make a lot sense to release both figures in the same month. Is that Mattel's plan?

Keldor is tentitivly a quarterly bonus figure for late summer, but that may change is another monthly figure slips schedule.

Out of the remaining months in 2010, approximatelly how many MOTUC, POP, 200X and New Adventures figures do you plan to release in 2010?

We can't really answer something like this because if a figure slips schedule we will sub in a bonus figure in its place, which would "throw off" any count we provide.

Are there any plans to release a core Justice League box set for the DC Universe 6" line?

Not at this time but don’t count it out.
