What is your favorite MOTU figure so far?

I think mine would be between Skeletor and Trap-Jaw...
But all of them look awesome!!!

 

[DPrime]

Hard pressed to pick a favourite... I don't think any made the impression the original He-Man did, and with Battle Cat, he's even better!

I would PROBABLY say Mer-Man, at least at the moment, and not having my figures with me. The sculpt was just awesome, and the extra head looked especially nice.

 

[piccolodaimaoh]

I agree, I think Mer-Man is probably the best looking figure so far, love that Squiddish Rex. I think Trap Jaw is my favorite so far. He comes with enough equipment to make a whole other figure in Kronis. It would be like if Skeletor came with enough extra accessories to turn him into Keldor.

I love Mer-Man both heads, but I have the 200X on mine! So I got my Cyber Monday shipping confirmation on Friday... Has anyone received their's or better yet their order? I was to see some new Battle-Cat pictures!

Here is some more pictures of my Custom "He-Man Face" King Grayskull!

 

[piccolodaimaoh]

That looks incredible! It really makes the difference. I even like the techno sword if Grayskull is wielding it.
The 200x head sculpt is wear it's at for Mer-Man. I believe the Four Horsemen said they wanted to make him look like the box art from the original 1983 version. The box art was great but the Mer-Man figure looked nothing like the Mer-Man on the package. Trust 4H for fixing that mistake.

I LOVE that they did that, even at 5 years old, lil Ski was like WTF that doesn't look like Mer-Man from the card art.

These are listed, but not in stock yet.

Woops! I just noticed that some folks mentioned these sold out. That was quick, since the He-man/Superman and Skeletor/Lex Luthor packs had been available for months.

 

[DPrime]

Have they even hit retail yet though?

 

[Badvermin]

Yes, they are showing up now.

 

[meanstreak]

Got He-Man and Skeletor today from Matty.

 

[Fluoride Drinker]

Got He-Man today!!! The only two figures that I need to catch up are Keldor and King Grayskull.

 

[The Craw]

no buzz-off review yet? i'm getting anxious.

 

[Boba Ben]

Ah, the last month of enjoying the sub and then I will be stuck looking at the Matty refresh screen once a month for the next year.

Well Castle Grayskull is truely DEAD


Doing a "connect and collect" Castle Grayskull would make a difficult project that much more difficult. If we ever did a Castle it would be as one toy (we are really not interested in doing a "front" only either) and would have to wait for a movie year or new entertainment in order to gain enough customers. Even if we could sell a Castle to every current Club Eternia member that is not even close to enough customers to justify the tooling and logistics it would take to do this!

We know there is a lot of demand for a Castle, I'd personally love one too, but there is a reason large playsets are not out for even mainline retail lines these days. They are simply too expensive to tool and do not sell as well. It is on my personal wish list, but to manage expectations, Castle Grayskull in Classics scale is a long way off and not in any plans anytime soon.

Since Mattel can commit to using tooling to making Barbie's house/tower playsets and make more excuses why they can't tool a Grayskull playset...I guess I wont commit anymore to their Subscriptions buying everything they make.Seems like they dont really want to make this playset unless a movie comes out (which is nothing more than talk) and its a looong way off! I know some of you dont care either way, its just disappointing not getting at least Castle Grayskull in the Classics line

 

[Boba Ben]

It is a disappointment, but I will be okay with it I suppose. If they're that sure that the castle isn't coming without a movie than I don't suppose it's worth getting our hopes up about it anymore.

Hasbro still makes the giant ships and vehicles for their Star Wars lines pretty consistently, but I don't run a toy company so I can't really speculate all the factors behind the decision.

 

[teemu]

Well Toyguru needs to shut the heck up about "anything is possible" then...because the Castle is not possible unless we get a movie which is dead too (a studio has to fund the picture and nobody wants to for real,and sony is full of _____)
