Too much wishful thinking imho. Mattel didn't go through all the effort to design these new bucks only to make them dissapear again after they released the movie figures. Pretty sure the wording was s...

Gotta give it to Mattel, they did a good job with the Cartoon collection so far. And nice pictures @andyhazarduk

Not a hardcore collector by any means, but stuff kind of piled up over the past few years. Almost out of space though, need to think about whether it's time to stop or buy yet another display case 😉 ...

It's probably difficult to know if its Mattel not delivering the number of figures promised, or Walmart accepting pre-orders beyond the number of guaranteed figures. Maybe they simply assume that a fr...

Well, I finally pulled the trigger on NE Moss Man; had to order Blast Attack anyway, and that way I could at least save on shipping. Still bummed they didn't flock him, but the sculpt looks awesome at...

Well, I wish they would consider running polls every few months with maybe 3-4 characters to be re-released. I suspect we all have gaps in our collections, and people that joined late even more so.

Not a bad idea, really - I mean to sprinkle in the occasional re-release. Whether I would have chosen that He-man, well...

@onlyoneskeletor Honestly, Mattel has created so many aborted (sub-) lines at this point, I don't think adding another would matter one bit. Actually, it would be kinda funny tbh.

I mean, the Revelations Spikor wasn't too far off, right? Scare Glow is a good point tho, forgot about him. The Revelations release was terrible, just terrible.

  I mean, at this point these are digital scans so you don't need to be too impressed. I don't think there was an actual human sculptor involved apart from maybe cleaning up the scans and simplif...

So, *if* Masterverse is really ending in 2027 - what would be your 5 figures Mattel really has to release to give the line a proper send-off?   For me, I suppose it would have to be New Eternia v...

I really do feel for the designers. They got a ton of shit when they tried to give He-man a new face in Origins and Masterverse. And when they later back-paddled and tried to scale up the vintage fac...

Someone made the point on Youtube that Mattel might be trying to reconcile their figure lines in this 6" scale to streamline their workflow with the new DC figures also set to be released in that same...

@ornclown Pretty sure they will just re-release all the usual suspects under the Chronicles umbrella, once they are done with the main movie figures. The annoying thing is, that it will probably work ...

@asterstar Then I will officially admit defeat, pat the internet on the back with a "well played, well played" and switch off my computer forever ^^

10 bucks, if true, seems like pretty aggressive pricing. Even origins was, what, 14.99 at launch? But me thinks they may be pulling the trigger a tad to fast if these are already hitting shelves. The ...

  I mean, Mattel (or rather the former MOTU brand manager) is on record promising that they would complete the vintage Origins line. Which they are getting close to. But that was in no way a spri...

It's also terribly nonomittal and sounds more like they are keeping the door open for now, just in case. But realistically, if Chronicles is really planned to be their next collectors line, the produc...

Well, never saw them, but it's been a while, so maybe I was just very good at dodging them

  As a European Origins collector, I'll have you know that (afaik) we never got Snout Spout or Leech over here! At least I never saw them anywhere 😀 So it goes both ways.  

So, after some time to digest this, I think it's somewhat understandable that Mattel wants to try and capitalize on the top-20 greatest hits one more time (i.e. release another line with the most popu...

Looking at my shelves/display cases, I see: - Vintage Motu (many, not all) - MOTUC (a few) - Club Grayskull (a few) - Super7 Neo Vintage (almost all) - Origins (almost all) - Cartoon Collection (wave ...

If I wanted to give Mattel the benefit of the doubt, I'd say that Masterverse didn't lend itself to doing this movie line since the overall proportions were always a little off to beging with. Not unn...

@sketchysekeltor I am in the same boat; mostly lost interest in MOTU - in no small part because of the sheningangs surrounding the availability. I can honestly not be bothered to keep track of all the...

@OnlyOneSkeletor right, partly my mistake for not realizing that they put him behind their silly little pay wall, which added 10€ to the overall price. I mean, I hated the idea of CG from the get go,...
