...

In other words, more scare tactics.

1) That came from Pixel Dan, and was backed up by the horsemen. NOT TG. Scott said something to the effect of " Well.. we'd want to get those out i we can. Con excsluves, quarterly etc" It came across as damage controll. He's being AMAZINGLY positive about the whole thing.


2) Considering the OTHER characters they've "confirmed" in the podcast ( Squeeze, Extendar, blade, Tung lasher, Scorpia, and Rio-blast as well as some others )

3) they explaned the Biglots thing. Makes PERFECT sense now.

4) The Unnamed one info. and the stuff talked by the horsemen.

 

[lerath666]

you know... kinda shocked NO 30th figures ended up at Biglots.


Still kinda want Spector.... and REALLY starting to want LAser-lot

Thanks for the run-down. I'm at work and I'm not sure I'd have the time to listen back home either.

Got anything to trade for 'em?

No they are not! Did you listen? It doesn't sound like you listened.
If ya listened ya probably wouldn't come to that conclusion.

Definitely not scare tactics. I gotta agree with Eamon. The stuff about superboy was also cool.

I've not got any trade fodder... unless you want an adam/orko two-pack.

 

[Eamon]

Adam/Orko for Spector = bargain!

 

[lerath666]

depends if he wants it or not.

[teemu]

listening now.

Ok, so.... unless I'm misunderstanding, they're Not gonna do twoBad and the others, unles the sub goes through.

They MIGHT get released as SDCC exclusives, but odds are, NOT Enough subs, he and the others, tooled or not, are NOT getting released.

typical Toyguru double speak...

he said twice that if the sub doesn't go through we would get at least the first 4 figures

 

[dedguy]

I really just need to ignore this thread until they stop beating the drum and yelling that the sky is falling.

Yeah, WTF is up with that....???

 

[Eamon]

This whole toyline depends on the sub. While questionable tactics have been employed before, that's not the case here.

We don't get enough subs, we are done.

Anybody who has been to SDCC will see the massive Star War, Lord Of the Rings and Transformers displays.

MOTU has no entertainment at all, nothing cept for a not so great comic and yet look at the display at SDCC2013??
I think that's pretty impressive.

then toyguru needs to STFU!

here are his quotes-

"If we don't hit the minimum we will likely release the first four figures at day of prices quarterly and release Goatman at Sdcc. That will wrap it up."

and

2:If the meter is not hit, what will likely happen is the 4 figures that are already tool'd (the ones revealed at SDCC) will be released quarterly and perhapes an item at SDCC. After that, that will be it. End of story

No, he said that if we don't get a sub, he will TRY to find a way to get us those 4 figures.

He never promised we would.

 

[lerath666]

Likely is not a promise. Likely is a Maybe, or a possible.

He WANTS to get tehm out there, but ultimately, the decision lies with Mattel.

read the quotes I posted....he announced what would happen if the sub falls through

DOUBLE SPEAK!!!!

 

[teemu]

likely implies it's pretty sure that is what will happen...he needs to STFU then!

 

[Zodach]

I think you're grasping at straws here teemu. "Likely" is not a certainty, but I really wouldn't be too worried about it. I'm sure Mattel will want to recoup some of the development costs and they know Two Bad and Modulok would sell out as singles and Glimmer and Hydron would probably do just fine on their own even if the subscription doesn't go through. They kept JLU going for several years after the line ended even though sales were never that good, so I'm sure we would still see some of these figures get released as long as they sell out. It's just that nothing would be guaranteed since the plan right now is for a full 2014 subscription lineup.

 

[Eamon]

Either way if we want the have more figures we need a sub.

But hey, lets argue over semantics as that's not what we complain about other forums doing at all!

I want my Rio Blast, I want my Extendar and the rest! I would like the Dark Wizard and Fang-Or.
I don't want 'ifs' or 'maybes'. I like certainty so I will buy a sub to help avoid that!

I bought my two subs...every year..since the very beginning

by that,I will complain when Scott implies something and then quick changes his tone.No wonder why fans are getting tired of it at times.

If you say something of intent that you're going to do something,then you do it!
