On Mattycollector.com today I found a secret figure, Spirit of Hordak, I bought him at the first sight, then there was a purchase link i found which said
Congratulations! By magic or by luck, you’ve found a secret figure! Now you see him… but this master of manipulation can disappear at any moment so act quickly! This all-clear figure features painted red eyes, chest emblem and removable armband, and comes with a fan-demanded Hordak® cross bow in vintage white. Trust us, this visitor from the dark dimension is up to no good… but you’ll have to get the figure to see his complete bio. Straight from the 2013 mini-comic, “The Secret Origin of Skeletor,” this highly collectable figure is not available with Club Eternia® subscriptions or even during regular monthly sales, so make sure you check back often to try to catch him the next time he decides to project onto this page! Then I revisited the page and it said, You're Too Late, Hordak Is Back in Hiding |

Well I closed the page to buy Hordak, and went to the recently closed, and clicked it, and it was gone, and to buy it, it was on the MOTUC sale page

Saw this on facebook this afternoon, went over to Matty and purchased one, I was hesitant because of a second shipping and handling charge this month and because it said he'll reappear in the future...either way I picked one up, def keeping him MOC.

I get the rarity aspect of the figure, but it looks hideous to me, and Hordak is my favorite mold/figure from that line.

Damn another Matty Collector figure that I have absolutely no chance in getting. Thanks guys. Stunts like, this is what makes people hate a brand. Totally annoying. I am going to make a bunch of really cool toys and make it impossible for Scott to get them. Ha just kidding I am so glad I have a smart phone though. Hey make a Matty Collector Iphone app!!

No other info yet? Was it just a one day sale? This is truly frustrating as a customer. First Strobo and now this?

I'm sure Spirit Hordak will be up again multiple times. They wouldn't waste $ only making a limited # of these. It's just a stunt to generate buzz in-between monthly sales. I happen to be home at the time and got a heads up from He-man.org so I bought one. I don't expect it to be as rare as a sub exclusive figures. Don't give in to secondary market prices until you know they are gone. If I hear about it again I will certainly post something here. I'm actually surprised it has not popped up again so far.

I am a Horde Whore, I always liked Hordak better than Skeletor. The figure is kind of strange to me, but I need 2 (one to open and one MOC) I would love to see them make Adora from the new He-Man comic from DC in her Hordak style armor. New Hordak from the comic reminds me of the newer Brainiac from Superman.

I think this is a really good marketing idea for MOTU. I hope we see more of this in the future.

Up again right now:
Spirit of Hordak And now back in hiding. I don't know how long they are up at any given time, but I was only able to see it available for about five minutes. Last edited by iam12fear; 06-20-2013 at 04:16 PM.. Reason: didn't want to double post. |
