And I don’t think DC interest can sustain the type of glut of products that UD has done with Marvel recently (I’d even argue that collector interest in Marvel can’t even sustain the glut of Marvel products that UD has popped out in the last year).”

You can say that isn’t underestimating but I personally don’t believe they need to lower print runs so that’s where I suppose we’d disagree on whether people are underestimating the license
Oh.. when you mentioned “Skybox” in your hot take “People are underestimating the DC license and Skybox and new sets centered on it are gonna be very popular” I thought you were saying people would be underestimating a DC Metal set being popular. Which had me scratching my head because in a hobby with a lot of disagreements, I think pretty much everyone agrees Metal is printing money. At any rate, if we are in agreement … no need to go back and forth. DC Metal will do well… the other stuff… not so much (or at least not at Marvel levels).
