The safety of this brand from the taking away of its January slot by another emerging and so-called 'super cool' new Motu toyline is confirmed (lol).

Seems more and more likely that we'll see all of Axel's original characters get released in Origins. Someone at Mattel must love that guy!

The Great Black Wizard is more of a description than a name. I am curious what his backstory will be and his real name.

I have wanted Bandwidth as a figure since the Classics days. I've got my fingers crossed!

Imma be real, while I have the previous three, He-Ro, Sharella and Red Shadow are really figures I felt like buying rather than wanting them and if there was a Mattel Creations sale.

I think Powers of Grayskull is basically a line of Glup Shittos based on a toyline that never happened yet has some real lore.

i really think they should’ve stopped at 3. I do not care about POG and like many I’d rather have new MC exclusive figures of characters we actually want.

also the fact that it’s been more than half a year since they brought back Club Grayskull and they are the only exclusives aside from one I think. Was it Dragstor or Sting-Or?

I mean for this subscription service that offers exclusive figures, don’t y’all think there should be more variety?

@slycooperastroboy51 all of the CG figures have been and will continue to be POG.

Looks like a cool figure. Maybe when its available outside of the membership and the cash flow allows it.

I'd like them to continue having Powers of Grayskull/Classics Exclusive figures on Mattel Creations and release the remaining Vintage characters to retail (or at least online retailers) but, ya know...

I don't think any of the other CG figures have been made available to non-members. I don't think this will be any different.

Nothing I'd loose sleep over. I got lucky I guess that I got Sharella on a fan to fan reseller stall in a regional convention a few months back for like 25 bucks. If I stumble over that guy for similar: Neat. If not; well; then not 🙂

The only other time I was interested in these was with the Fright Zone but that got into regular shops so I kinda assumed these might as well.

@slycooperastroboy51 I think they said that at SDCC, or maybe some other event last year. Also context clues.

GBW appears on the UK site, but not US? That's what I'm finding, anybody else?
