I’ve never ordered Super 7 figures before and thinking about these. Is this the only chance to get them or will they be available later? Do they charge at the time of order or when they ship?

They might be available on Big Bad Toy Store. Super 7 charges right away and they are made to order. Buying on the secondary market sucks

It sounds like Super 7's shipping is a little bit cheaper this time around and with BBTS now charging sales tax for my state, I think I might be better off ordering through Super 7 and paying it all upfront. |

If you buy elsewhere you're going to be paying more FYI. I think they're $35 each on the Super 7 site and then get to about $50 each on BBTS.

I've only bought a few of the special releases so far from Super 7 (Laughing Adam & Holiday He-man) but these all look nice. Also, I love the idea of Conan in with my MotU collection, but what's with that face sculpt?

The Skeletor looks amazing, but it's a shame I have to buy the entire lot to get him.

May be an unpopular opinion, but as someone who grew up with MOTU, I absolutely hate the movie. Like, bone-shaking loathing. So, while these look really good, it's a pretty easy pass for me and my wallet.

I would encourage everyone to lodge a complaint with Mattel (who provides the He-Man licence for Super 7). This can be done on the customer service page of Mattel's corporate website. Google "Mattel complaint". Forcing passionate fans to buy all 4 figures (for $140) to get the one they want is pure profiteering. I've contacted Super 7 about this and they exhibited zero concern towards customer satisfaction in this regard. Exploiting a passionate population of collectors for the soul purpose of profiteering is despicable. I won't be buying any of their product now or in the future.

You are joking right? You know Mattel had an all in subscription of 12 figures and deluxe items you had to buy in order to obtain everything. You can buy them single on Bbts,which with their flat shipping you may make out better any way. I can’t tell if you are joking or not,but this is the way the world works. Companies make something we want. We buy or don’t. You know like an economy. Again,I assume you are joking.

However, yes, in the long run, the movie is pretty bad, but god damn is Skeletor awesome in it. My favorite Skeletor design.

I don't think he is. Like you said, BBTS will have them for like around 50$ each if someone just wants 1 of them. Super 7 have said since they are not Mattel they don't have the backing money that Matty does so when they make these figures they have to go with full sets to justify the production cost.
But it is a real easy choice , buy them or not. if the price is too high , then don't. I stopped the GI Joe Club because I could not justify the cost for a 3.75 inch figure being so high. With all the new tooling and everything, except Karg, but his tooling was part of the last series cost, I can justify the price for me at least. |

I do love Langella's Skeletor, but for me it was all Meg Foster as Evil-Lyn. When I met her last year, I choose this photo for her to sign. She was a super nice woman to meet. And her eyes are still just a amazing in person.

I made an attempt to preorder Conan and saw shipping to me was going to be 14 so that comes out to just under 50. BBTS is going to be 50 with shipping and sales tax at 8. So i guess I'll just wait for the BBTS pre order to go up.
I feel like I'm one of the few to genuinely like the movie. For all its faults, I feel like it's still a step up from the Filmation cartoon, which I like too in doses. |

How much are they selling Conan for?
EDIT: HOLY SHIT!! You're right. I had no idea Conan was going to be $35 before shipping despite not having any double jointed elbows and knees with such little accessories. That's outrageous.

"Dear Mattel, the guys you gave the He-Man license are only releasing their figures in a way that will insure that they make money. Somebody needs to stop them!" |
