woot! got my castle grayskullman and john constantine.

Optimus Vader · 11-15-2012, 10:10 AM

Nice ^^

I backed out on Constantine at the last minute. I was on the fence with him. I did get myself an Uncle Sam though... and Filmation Randor and the Great Unrest Weapon Pack.

..and for the first time in about six months I didn't forget to change my shipping method to UPS.

Honestly I have no idea. I keep my figs MOC. I just had to have a box of each because I want to have 1 of every MOTUC product they put out. I'm a MOTU whore like that lol. It's to the point now where I'm going to have to shell out the cash for the expensive figs. E.g. Shadow Weaver, Wun-Dar, all 3 SDCC King Grayskulls, etc... FML & my wallet.

I highly recommend the Grayskull stands. I have a bunch of those, but haven't bought any SM stands.

thanks for the tip. i'm slightly worried that if i don't pick up a few, they'll find a way to incorporate these into castle grayskull itself and then magically they will be harder to find/purchase.

That's an interesting thought. I could definitely see that happening... good thinking.

Tiberius · 11-15-2012, 06:04 PM

Got Dekker and Constantine. Missed on GM but no big deal. Buy bulk from China lol.

KITT · 11-19-2012, 07:08 PM

Missed out on Grayskullman... It's probably for the best... Just wasn't meant to be.

Well if you really want him, there is e-bay or BBTS (which has him for pre-order). You may also find him in the future in a dealer's room at conventions (I know I have seen MOTUC being sold by dealers at conventions I have gone to in Texas).

BAD MOON · 11-20-2012, 12:31 AM

got my grayskullman in today. he's pretty badass. solid figure. really dig the two swords.

Tiberius · 11-20-2012, 12:40 AM

I missed out on him as well, not meant to be as well. Did get Dekker though, stoked on that!

soundwavempl · 11-20-2012, 07:29 AM

I got my subscription Dekker and King Randor in yesterday. They are not my favorites but they still ain't bad. I am still waiting to receive my Castle Grayskullman, who is my favorite MOTUC release this month.

Also, I wanted to make everyone aware that I have 2 MOTU figure checklists out there.

Here is one for the vintage MOTU line:

Masters of the Universe Vintage Visual Figure Checklist

And here is one for the MOTUC line, which I try to update once a month:

Masters of the Universe Classics from Vintage Figure Checklist

Enjoy!

Love the checklist! I like how you broke them into the years of their vintage version's release.

Heads up everyone. Matty is starting their Black Friday sale a little early this year. They posted the following:

Toy Fans,
Black Friday is great, but why stop at just one day? This year we’re starting our Black Friday sale a little bit early and we’re extending it a little bit longer. Be here at 9:00 a.m. PT on Wednesday morning November 21st and we’ll have items from some of your favorite lines at savings up to 30% off! The sale continues for six days, ending at 9:00 a.m. PT on Tuesday morning, November 27th. And be sure you check in often on Monday November 26th because flash sales and special pricing will come and go* and you never know what you might find!

This may be your last chance to snag some essential 2012 figures you missed that very likely won’t be back again. It’s also a great time to pick up a few gifts for friends or family, or just treat yourself to something (especially since you’ve been so good all year). Want to know what will be on sale? Come back to MattyCollector.com on Wednesday morning 11/21! Although I can’t tell you now which products you’ll find, we’re sure the sale will be a roaring success and we’re doing our best to conjure up some great deals that do justice to all our great lines

Remember, the sale starts Wednesday, November 21st at 9 a.m. PT (12 noon ET). Want an email reminder? Click here to register. Or, join me on Facebook, Twitter and in our Fan Forums and you’ll get reminders there, too.

–Matty

Yeah, I'm going to keep looking on ebay until I see him for a decent price. Right now they all look like they are marked up too high... they usually go down after a few months.
This is the first figure that I am actually on the fence about. I want him, but don't need him. It's weird. I would like to have 2 standing as guards inside Castle Grayskull but it's not an absolute necessity.

soundwavempl · 11-21-2012, 09:27 AM

Thanks everyone for the comments on my MOTU visual checklists.

KITT, I noticed MattyCollector has Castle Grayskullman listed as Coming Soon. So maybe you might be lucky they will offer more today during their sale.

soundwavempl · 11-21-2012, 10:03 AM

UPDATE: CastleGrayskullman is available on Matty again!

Optimus Vader · 11-21-2012, 10:09 AM

There's some good shit out there. I got a few back figures I needed like Snout Spout and Faker for $15.40 and then a full price Sorceress.

ludovicotek · 11-21-2012, 10:10 AM

Black Friday sale has officially started over at Mattycollector, and as soundwavempl said, Castle Grayskullman is available!

soundwavempl · 11-21-2012, 10:11 AM

I just got TOD Sorceress off Matty! Yay!
