For awhile it was known that Mattel was going to have a booth at c2e2 this weekend in Chicago. There wasn't going to be anything new, but they would have the displays from the previous shows, such as Toyfair.
Well it looks like things have changed according to Matty's facebook: "Just a reminder that Chicago Comic Expo C2E2 starts 4/16! We won't have Mattel reps or a booth but limited quantities of Ray Stanz and Tri-Klops will be on sale at the Convention Sales Desk." Login | Facebook I know it's not a big deal, but it seems kind of lame that they were announced for weeks and instead of saying something like "We apologize but we won't be able to make it as planned." They end up sounding like "Hey, have a fun time at the convention this weekend, we planned to have a booth but said **** it!, but we'll gladly take your money!"

Yeah, why would a website oriented sub-division of a toy company dedicated to the fans want to attend a toy/comic show dedicated to the fans? If you ask me it makes perfect sense.

If there isn't going to be a reveal, then who cares? There's nothing worse than going to a booth at a con with nothing new to see. They might as well not be there at all, which is what Mattel is doing.
