@yen1893 I don’t think Wun-Dar is released anywhere, neither US nor elsewhere?Haven’t heard anything. I monitor things in Germany through friends, he’s not there either. They to have Evil-Lyn over there, though. I see people finding her in stores. She’s…   Read more»

@yen1893 I think it’s really bad that Creations doesn’t deliver everywhere. They used to, at first! Mattel has fans everywhere but some don’t matter…? It would be different if these items were not exclusive to Creations, but they literally tell…   Read more»

@yen1893 At first, I think every other vintage release was tough to get, but now it’s just every single figure. Granted, Mer Man was in stock again at WM.com for regular price, I think MAA, too. Don’t know for how…   Read more»

@yen1893 That’s great. Mine was like $48 with shipping AND tax.
Haven’t been able to spot her on eBay for a good price. You just never know…

@yen1893 Good! I was fortunate enough to be able to catch her as soon as she appeared on the bay. In light of the previous experiences of Zodac and Mer-Man in our country, I feel it would be prudent to…   Read more»

@yen1893 Well, let’s see if the latest scoop (revealed by Kevin Smith) actually comes to fruition, if so, it may have a very positive impact over Masterverse which was born from a certain Motu cartoon. 😉

@yen1893 King Hiss would be sick

@yen1893 That Chronicles Scare Glow seems to have been the beginning of that road they’re going on with Chronicles. He looks a bit more classic, but also can stand next to these newer reinterpretations. I’m also not sure about Clawful…   Read more»

@yen1893 pretty sure Amazon took the majority of the losses from the movie. Not that it makes it any better

@yen1893 Personally, I’m applauding these reimagined characters. While I haven’t been too interested until now, their Sky Sleds are another story … so incredibly dynamic!

@yen1893 And guess what? Wun-Dar is another touchy subject for me. As if we French fans haven’t dealt with enough political restrictions keeping the movie out of our theaters, I’ve now found out that eBay has a rule preventing anyone…   Read more»

@yen1893 Not yet. I think Mattel’s strategy has exhausted me and left me with no appetite for more, since ‘more’ means exclusively variants or, at best, repaints. They could make it so much more fun for their customers — really!…   Read more»

@yen1893 “The Whole Shebang” toy store (UK) had Mer-Man available for preorder this month, but they’ve recently delayed it to May, which doesn’t look promising for its availability. I’ve been through this before with the Masterverse Vintage Collection Zodac. Good…   Read more»

@yen1893 So in other words, you have no idea what kind of voice would be suitable 😆

Well something approaching the 200x voice would work to my mind? Slightly theatrical but still retaining menace.

It’s the best voice I’ve ever heard for Skeletor. An honourable mention goes to the one used in the NA cartoon, though (so sneaky!).

Well something approaching the 200x voice would work to my mind? Slightly theatrical but still retaining menace. I saw a suggestion elsewhere, and I think it’s genius, Kurtwood Smith AKA Clarence Bodicker. Imagine if they’d announced him as the voice, people would have been much happier than immediately cringing at Jared Leto. And realistically…Read more

@yen1893 Would you prefer a deep south accent? 🤣 
What voice would “fit” the character? A cheesy Oppenheimer impression?

@yen1893 the initial panic. Prices will drop. If people want to spend $100 to be one of the first to have him then….

@yen1893 Wouldn’t that be something. 😊

@yen1893 The Mer-Man situation was bearable. I could handle playing the waiting game until he became available on the wider market in April. But adding Beast Man to that already painful process…

@yen1893 If I had a “burning desire” to acquire it, I happen to know an ideal French online store where most of them are available for $20 less. As a final option, be patient and wait at least another month,…   Read more»

Agreed.
Plus, Saurod is one of the best MOTUC figures in the line! He is awesome!
(As a matter of fact, the William Stout collection are the best figures Super7 has ever made.)

@yen1893 I can guarantee that the MOTUC and MV figures on my shelves harmonize very well with each other!

@yen1893 Fed up of this bullshit polluting the entire web.

@yen1893 I would have preferred the movie figures to be a line within the Masterverse line but I guess Mattel didn’t want to go that way. I want to know what’s different. Chronicles sounds exactly like Masterverse, just said differently.

@yen1893 Spikor looks good – he has a purplish tinge mixed with brown, like a cross between the vintage figure and the sketchbook series one 😆

@yen1893  I’m not sure what to think about these rumors at this point. Mattel clearly planned these MV figures, so why didn’t they introduce Wun-Dar and Evil-Lyn when they were renewing their catalog last October? Every MV figure that was…   Read more»

@yen1893 This is a tipping point for any collector of this brand. There’s no need to speculate further if not even one figure is included in the roster of reveals, in my opinion.

@yen1893 Except that, last October, Mattel showed nothing new regarding Masterverse when they released more Origins figures, including the Sketchbook Series Mekanech. I mean, skepticism is more than allowed in such a context, you know?

@yen1893 If another roster of a few dozen Masterverse figures is unveiled by them, any possible doom and gloom will be lifted off me. Until then, though…

@yen1893 May Heaven hear you! The sooner, the better. Especially in these uncertain times ahead.

@yen1893 To be continued… Wave 20 is now available to pre-order on BBTS. I added it to my basket while browsing the Masterverse section, just minutes before it was officially added to the site’s banner.

@yen1893 it’s probably just a rebranding of the line so retailers think it’s a new product.
