Didn't Fisto ride that thing? Yeah I hope that scalpers on not on board with this line since it's gotten smoking hot, Skeletor did sell out much quicker than He-Man or Beast Man.

Aside from the fact that Skeletor is really popular, obviously, I think think the reason he sold out so fast is that HM and BM were available until RIGHT before Skells went on sale and then they disappeared. I think it caused a chain reaction of poopy pants in the community and everybody ordered up.
Of course that was when I had decided not to follow through on these guys so I missed him. Thanks to some excellent Freaks and some extra Fakers I should have him this week, though!

"poopy pants"

"poopy pants"

When He-Man Sold out the online Terror Level was officially raised to Brownish.

there was only one dissapointment I heard from the Matty Panel....there were looking into making a type (card board???) display for Castle Greyskull and not an actual playset

I really want a Castle playset for this line...whats He-man without his Castle??

Highlights-Zodac,Hordak,Man at Arms,Tri-klops,Teela, and Battle cat and Panthor coming!!

 

[Kuzeh]

I think they already did that for King Grayskull...
so no, I strongly believe if they do it, it would be plastic,
but without all the bells and whistles of a Playset (no sounds, no traps, no interiors actually...) Maybe just a facade of the Castle?...

 

[Darth Waller]

Well, after seeing the NYCC pictures, I couldn't take it any more. I just purchased the first 3 in a Buy It Now auction. Still wish I would've gotten in on this line sooner, but oh well. At least now I'll be ready for each month's order and will get to enjoy some fine toys from a great 80s cartoon.

that might be cool.....I guess.....I dont want any electronic stuff...just a updated remake of the Original....I know they can make it without being super expensive....I'd pay easily pay $200 for a Castle

Well they did need some of the remaining He-Man and Beastman stock
for the NYCC so that is pretty much why they were abruptly discontinued
on Matty.

You must have paid some serious cash because all the buy it nows on ebay
with the first 3 are over 100 dollars. You probably could have saved alot
more money had you waited it out. Mattel stated that they would re-release
the first figs 8 months after their initial release.

But not the same ones, re-paints, different decos, accessories, etc...

Unfortunately, patience is not one of my virtues.

I would prolly do the same thing, because I would want the first runs of these guys. If they came out with the same figure and different versions, like nothing changes but a small change on the package. That would bother me.

So I don't blame u. DO WHAT MUST BE DONE!!!!

 

[bagelsncheesey]

Thanks, I guess it's not crazy like $100+ but still it's almost double or triple the price of cost.

Mattel will be re-releasing a second wave of the figures that are currently sold out. They underestimated the demand for them, so no worries... you'll get yours.

 

[Darth Waller]

Yep, repaints wouldn't be good enough for me. The life of a collector.

whoops, just read that you posted that after my post

oh well, the more info the merrier!

I believe Skeletor was going to be the same as his first release and it
was a possibility that the original He-man could also see the same treatment
only with a different box.

patience is my virtue, yay!

 

[galactiboy]

I'm fighting the completest bug on this line... I passed on Beastman (never a real favorite) but the rest of the line is looking great. I think out of the announcements the only ones I'm iffy on are Zodak and Stratos.
