Masters of the Universe Classics Castle Grayskull Is Getting Made

[Enigma2K2]

Suuuuuuure... suddenly at the last minute, everyone decided that they wanted one...

[Joe Moore]

Actually, I think places, other than Mattel, that were taking pre-orders (like BBTS) submitted their orders on Monday. So they had to account for them as well.

Most of us always wait til the last minute.

I wish Hasbro would do this for certain Star Wars items fans want or even maybe a X-Men Danger Room.

[Tiberius]

Rather just be able to buy this at my local toystore and not have to pay a dumb amount of money on shipping and duties...

[Robogeek28]

Good news for those that want it.

[Yobuster]

Yeah for sure but man time to wait the whole long year. Got to remember to save up that much money for it.

So still doesn't mean that a lot of people want this thing... just that a couple of guys ordered a big amount of them.
I still wonder if there is a real market interest on this guy.
I think I could like it, but definitely not for this price, goes too way out of my budget (be aware just in case of future discussions, I am not saying it is expensive or not, just that I cannot afford it)

I got a whole year to save up for this, cause if they do a Snake Mountain, I will need that too.

Are you serious? It's a Classics Castle Grayskull.

[Joe Moore]

I doubt this was just a couple of guys pre-ordering these. The meter was already at 75% or so on the Friday before hand. And I can't imagine BBTS, and the few other retailers who put up their own pre-order pages, simply over ordering on a product as expensive as this. Could there be a few guys who ordered more than 1? Sure. But I can't believe people were mass ordering just to get this made. There's too big a risk to be stuck with oversized and expensive product for an extended amount of time.
