Thundercats would be a nice complimentary line to MOTUC... I was never a big fan but I can't deny the coolness factor. It's too bad Mattel couldn't pick up the license...
Looks like I finally picked up a Bronze King Grayskull today!!! Paid out my butt for it though... but not as much as some were asking, so I guess that's alright.
That makes every figure for me, except for the later SDCC He-Ro (the one with the SDCC logo under his armour - not sure I care about that one, but maybe) and translucent Orko (definitely need to pick this one up at some point).

going to go with more of a 200x Panthor as his own character personaly. As awesome as his armor looks, it's staying in the accessory box.

Did you get the green, red and purple gems?

and that should be good enough for Iron Man
That's how Ski did it, that's how America does it, and it's worked out pretty well so far.

Nah, I didn't really care about those. In fact, I can't even remember which version I've got...
I'm contemplating getting ONE more He-Ro just to have the SDCC version, but I don't need two more besides that!

Mattel took the money out for Roboto. I'm glad I don't have to visit the Matty site this month.

I had the same feeling. The helm is cool, but I love the classic look for Panthor (with his face exposed).

Oh crap November is gonna suck...I wants all of it. And Venkman too.
Well guys, keep an eye out for the correct and incorrect shoulder Roboto Variant...the corrected shoulders will be hot
He-Fans,
So I did see all the posts on the "Roboto issue" reversed shoulders. Sorry to start an all new thread, but I figure it is easiest to get an answer this way without wandering through tons of posts.
I discussed the shoulders today with Bill Benecke our lead designer on MOTUC. It is an interesting case because we never actually received early PR samples for Roboto (unlike most figures, for some reason our product request for samples on this one was never fulfilled by our vendor, this does happen sometimes and is a bit annoying on all fronts).
The "sample" we sent to Pixel Dan for a video review was an early package sample I "borrowed" from Bill (Bill I owe you one Roboto!). It was that or nothing, and I know how much you all love the video reviews! This is why no other sites received Roboto samples. We just didn't have them. Arg.
The loose samples we have at Mattel both have the correct and incorrect shoulders. Hopefully the vendor did follow our instructions months back to correct the shoulder in the final run. We honestly don't know if the sample sent to Dan was final or not.
If the shoulders were incorrect on the full run, of course we'll look into fixing this if we get around to a second release. But for this first release, the production is complete and we won't be able to make changes now.
We'll all know more in a few days once product starts shipping. Until then, good journey!
