Toy Fans,
Okay, gang, 2012 is right around the corner and there's no doubt it's going to be our biggest year ever. MOTUC Club Eternia® continues into its fourth year, and we welcome the all-new DC Universe Club Infinite Earths, Voltron® Club Lion Force and the MOTUC 30th Anniversary Series subscriptions! Along with the new Voltron® line, we've also got the WWE® Legends line joining Matty. There's a lot happening, so read on for all the details!

January Subscription Key Dates
Because there are so many subs and no separate "combo" this year, we won't be posting a summary of the costs, but here are the key dates for January 2012: Your card will be charged 5 calendar days before the on-sale date, so plan to have funds available before Thursday, January 12, 2012. Subscription orders will begin shipping 2 business days before the on-sale date, which is Friday, January 13, 2011.
2012 Price Increase
Please remember, prices are going up in 2012 for non-subscription items. As we told you when the subs were originally on sale, we are going to hold our prices at the 2008 levels for all subscription holders, but in 2012 they will go up for items purchased during the regular monthly sales. This applies to both subscription holders and those without subscriptions: if you purchase products during our regular monthly sales, prices will be higher in 2012. The pricing for basic figures will be $22 each, beasts will be $33 each, and large items like the Star Sisters™ set will be $66 (prices, as always, are subject to change). This only applies to non-subscription purchases -- pricing for items purchased through subscriptions will remain as previously stated.
So remember, the first sale of 2012 kicks off Tuesday, January 17th at 9 a.m. PT (12 noon ET). As always, I’ll send email reminders (click here to register) and post reminders on Facebook, Twitter and in our Fan Forums.
Thanks for a fantastic 2011 and from our family to yours, have a great holiday season!
–Matty
