@disneyboy Sometimes it helps to ask them to speak to their manager / supervisor. The low end employees usually have no power to really help anyone. 🫤 I secured my Blast Attack. And, be Ayse if the 20% off sale,…   Read more»

@disneyboy most major business have customer “service” centers out side the US running call centers. None of them can offer any real help.

@disneyboy  I’m sure they’ll still make She-Ra CC figures, it’s just that with CC Randor and Marlena, their making them have 2024 He-Man specific cardbacks because they were prominent characters in that show. I’m betting if they’re gonna do Glimmer,…   Read more»

@disneyboy Well, there is the Masterverse Adora coming out soon, but yes, I agree, we need a full lineup of POP in CC Origins, and it’s incredibly annoying that Mattel has gotten distracted with suddenly putting out all that 200X…   Read more»

@disneyboy Well they’re trying to give us a bit of upgrade or at least differences to the regular CC She-Ra release. Even if yeah, some of them are a bit unusual. We can still use the regular She-Ra, too. Maybe…   Read more»

I wish they were more specific. If Mattel showed off some more Filmation figures with the 200x ones I would feel better about it.
 

@disneyboy that even with 200X coming there will be more Filmation PoP figures.

@disneyboy I don’t think its a matter of them getting as much as they can, but profit margins and production cost and MOQ… it’s all very complicated.

@disneyboy Mattel is a business. Making money is the whole point.

@disneyboy yeah it does look bad…
 
Packaging turn around for Sting-Or.
 

@disneyboy I’m not saying that the nail has been put in the coffin for the rest of the Great Rebellion, but it certainly doesn’t bode well for the near future. If the ratio of figures produced was so low for…   Read more»

@disneyboy Why?

@disneyboy You see, SDCC is Mattel’s last chance to establish a significant presence with a wide range of these characters, as they did with the mini-subscription in 2014. After that, we can only hope that they will occasionally produce characters…   Read more»

@disneyboy Very well worded and I absolutely 💯% agree.  Thank you for saying that. 👍

@disneyboy They might include She-Ra in the MOTU panel. She-Ra is a part of MOTU.

@disneyboy no She-Ra panel? Damn. I was hoping they would at least have some acknowledge the 2018 series’ existence I know I know Dreamworks but they’re acting as if only the Filmation toon is the only She-Ra thing in existence…   Read more»

@disneyboy I’m keeping my fingers crossed, but that unresolved frustration feels very familiar. After waiting so long for the salutary concept of mini-subs to occur back in 2012, we were finally able to complete the whole POP team two years…   Read more»

@disneyboy right now my display has mostly VC figures. The only CC figures are She-Ra, Catra and Two-Bad. They all look fine together.

@disneyboy by what?

@disneyboy She is easily one of my favorite MV figures!

😍 😍 😍 😍 

@disneyboy And when they get it wrong, they get it WRONG. (New Etheria She-Ra) 😉

@disneyboy  Stay tough DB… Mattel is running out of vintage options from the MOTU waves, so PoP (hopefully) is their next stop. It sounds silly, but I’d actually like the crossover lines to continue with the PoP brand… maybe a…   Read more»

@disneyboy no because thos was mostly for MC and CG stuff. If there’s no more POP CC stuff at SDCC then you can worry.

@disneyboy regular origins

@disneyboy on the mc site

@disneyboy Agreed, it’s totally fucking boring, just like the vintage one was. Unbelievable how many people crave this junk.

@disneyboy Agreed, I don’t understand what the rest of you are raving about. If the figure actually looked like the She-Ra on the card art, then we’d have something to celebrate.

She looks gorgeous! 😍  @disneyboy Does She-Ra look any better to you now up close?

@disneyboy You are really that upset with how she looks? I think She-Ra looks good. She looks more like Filmation She-Ra to me than CC He-Man looks like Filmation He-Man.

@disneyboy It’s because the source of the pics is a Instagram video where the packaging is spun in a stupid circle. These cc releases only have a front and a back. Why waste everyone’s time spinning it?

@disneyboy Nothing has changed with Crita. You can buy a NRFB Crita for $35. She’s nostalgia proof and inflation proof.

@disneyboy Still not convinced that this is final. Remember plenty of figures are still being sold using their prototype (Mutated He-Man with no translucency, Scare Glow was also a painted prototype,…) The photos with a black background are usually done…   Read more»

@disneyboy She-Ra used the Castle Grayskull background for her transformation in the cartoon so that would make sense, but the PoP toys had that typical 80’s girls like pink packaging and they might want to hit that nostalgia too.  Right…   Read more»
