As many people have already heard Mattel has stated the 2015 version of the MOTU Minis will not Move Forward. The Club Barely reached 50% of the Goal

It's almost comical to watch Matty stagger from failure to failure, and a marvel that they stay afloat. They really should be worshipping at the altar of Monster High every day for being the primary, if not sole reason that the company is still in business.
I do feel sorry for the fans though, no one deserves to be shat on so badly. |

F*** a bunch of MOTU Minis. MOTU fans don't care about that. We need MOTUC Twiggets and Widgets, dammit.

What were the Minis? Like... chibi style figures, or like 3.75 figures? I'd buy 3.75 He-Man figures.

you know those Star Wars, Marvel, and DC Figures that are like LIttle People by Fisher Price. They sell them for like 5 - 10$ at Target, Wal Mart, TRU, Kmarts and Many other stores Mattel has done these for MOTU but the 2015 version failed

The fact that Mattel even thought people wanted them, let alone to be sub worthy, is laughable.

I only ever bought 1 of the Mini MOTU packs, the one with Scareglow. He is one of my favorite characters ( Hordak is my No.1).

I still do not get why they think the Subscription system works. 1 sucess v. 9 failures does not mean it works

I kind of thought they were cool. And did want to buy them at one point, but they would always sell out before I could get them. Yet they made them available again as catch up packs/bundles. But at that point I was turned off...

these were very Nichy. Mostly only those that wanted them bought them. The money for these really could have been spent on researching Joint Improvements. I don't know about MOTU figures but the Recent DC have had very Loose or overly tight Joints. I know DC is done in a week but still you shouldn't just Halfass something.

No they haven't. I had a lot of figures with loose ankles be it Adam, Battle Armor He-Man, Skeletor, MAA, Stratos, and many others.

Kain, how about you read the message in context? I was responding directly to CMIII's comment about not knowing about MOTUC, but the recent DC figures having poorly executed joints. I responded by saying that the MOTUC figures have been flawless. I didn't say that they were all that way, just responding to his remark about recent figures. All the figures you mentioned having issues with came early in the line. And yes, there have been plenty of figures with issues, BUT THE RECENT ONES HAVE BEEN GREAT!
Here, I'll copy the previous posts for you, since you couldn't bring yourself to scroll up a little. Quote:
