This is a total load... I'm sorry but why is it being extended. The whole Idea of a time limit means that thats it when it expires thats it.. As it was said 12 months ago "the time for support has passed"

This needs to happen. I have not spent a fortune over the last 6 years getting every figure for this to fail now. I need Rio Blast and Dragstor and Multi-Bot and Gwildor.

Rio Blast and Gwildor are coming this year, regardless of what happens with the 2015 sub.

Yup. He said regardless of the sub, all Q1 figures will be released, just nothing further.
Did we make it? - Topic Quote:
We either hit the min and move forward or we don't and the q1 figures will become quarterly releases and Oolar will be a Sdcc item.

This is utter nonsense. The sub did not reach its goal, it should not be extended. It should not pass GO! It should not collect $200!
As I said before, they're probably going to end Matty Collector after next year as their contract with Digital River probably ends and they need something to justify having to pay DR for another year of service.

I hope enough people subscribe this weekend to get the 10% needed. I really want to see a 4 Horseman sculpted Saurod. Glad they are re-opening the sub!

POP, technically. The Etheria sub went through even though it didn't reach the quota. It was not actually given an extension though. Mattel said it was close enough they were able to work it out by reducing the number of extras they made for non-subscriber sales.
Nobody else was ever that close to going through by the original deadline. They met the quota easily, or failed by a large margin.

I got the damned subscription just because I am tired of fighting the hoarders...oh I mean scalpers...whoops I meant the really dedicated fans who buy up to 500 of the same figure so they can sell them for a mark up on ebay and/or flea markets. Bless their hearts.
Oh and also subbed for Oo-lar...I have been waiting for that figure for years I tells ya. YEARS! I can't cherry pick Oo-lar, and really don't want to pay top dollar for this on the ol 'bay. A bare footed barbarian in a loin cloth. Yup. That's what does it for me. Okay, to be honest, there are a bunch of MOTUCs that I want this year, not just Oo-lar, but what worries me is that I will not be able to resell these figures, even if I sold them at the same price Matty would be selling them for. |

I love this line, but it really needs to end. The dilution of the line with POP and NA figures, is probably what caused the line to decline.
