@chrisa Agreed! Though I would find it difficult to envisage them transitioning from a 'what would have been a MOTUC design' to an Origins mould. No, at this stage I would prefer to switch to the Mast...

There is an uncanny quality to the figure, which appears remarkably lifelike and... alluring!

@kraken Even stranger is the timing they chose for this sale, which coincided with the Snake Lair crowdfunding campaign. Could Mattel have rushed this offer to cover some of the costs of the crowdfund...

@he-fellow They all have a strong claim to the podium, but Mantenna has the strongest claim of all, thanks to his appearance and bizarre physique. I'm thrilled that they decided to reimagine Mosquitor...

The 19th wave has finally arrived! My shelves are about to burst with imagination and epicness!

@sketchyskeletor I was thrilled at first, thinking it was an Origins vehicle, but then...

@slycooperastroboy51 I totally get the reasoning here, but having succumbed to the siren's song, I'm kind of relieved they've decided to opt for such a compromise, most notably because of the stratosp...

Goodness gracious! Freddie has done it again! No offence, but can't we just see what's going on? We're in a bind because it looks like he's going to stick around for the long haul. Leaving his marks p...

Assuming we're on the same page and are actually discussing Mondo here, then yes, we saw the digital renders of both Teela with Orko (the latter presented as a bonus accessory) and Mer-Man during thei...

Overall, I'd give the figure 10/10. The alternate head (long hair) is what I would designate a triumphant and contemporary reinterpretation of the Motuc figure, which was also realised with great exac...

Hmmm... There's an unfortunate reminder to be made here: we had enough of Despara as a drawn character back in the 2010s (thanks to DC Comics). Having her in motion is one thing, but having her in act...

@sketchyskeletor Yes, strangely enough, the current selection coincides with Mondo's. They presented Mer-Man, Teela and Orko at the NYCC. However, Roboto is the last character I would reserve the 'ove...

@smokinya Of course, we'll just have to wait and see, but the only reason I opted for an enlarged selection in the process was because of the hint that Emiliano Santalucia shared on social networks a ...

@cosmic I have heard that many times, and I have experienced it too. The starting of my collection back in 2011: a time of sweaty chases after specific Motuc figures. The rightfulness of this chase: d...

@cosmic Haha! Don't fret, in my universe, decelerating is barely noticeable. 🤣 I must be a descendant of Rio Blast. I sincerely rejoice at the unexpected delight you experienced today. By the ...

@cosmic One thing is for sure: I'm going to slow down in my quest for this 20th wave, which might be the last after a long while — if it happens at all — before returning to the current context, which...

@yen1893 It is a reference to his redesigned outfit. This was from the multiverse (comics).

The Halloween-themed edits here and there made the experience even more entertaining.

She's my girl, literally! I've had so much fun with her, and still do. Of course, her heavy hair presents certain challenges, but when you're skilled enough to defy the laws of gravity... Anyway, I'll...

It looks like Battle Cat-Man has returned (lol). Jokes aside, it works fine anyway!

She looks cool! I like the little nod to her white spacesuit, which reminds me of how well the interchangeability of the MOTUC figure was achieved (even though green was the dominant colour used to bl...

@cosmic At this point, all I'm asking for is the chance to replace most of my MOTUC figures that lack posing dynamics. If Mattel could renew 75% of the vintage catalogue, I'd be happy (no matter which...

@yen The 20th wave hasn't been made available for pre-order yet. That's the last bone they're throwing us for a while. @cosmic The imminent release of movie figures, most likely via the (rebranded??) ...

@dgsimo Well, on a positive note, that's money saved for Mondo 200X figures, for example. Unless Mattel goes crazy with this line and offers some cool vehicles and creatures unexpectedly, but I won't ...

@dgsimo All I'm asking is that they'll be Origins figures and not Masterverse ones. We have far fewer slots allocated for the latter; I don't want the situation to get any worse. However, I'm confiden...
