Mattel never could seem to get Origins to stores well, and one wave glutted the market for a year. It could be that Turtles of Grayskull and the cartoon collection keep Origins format going so at least the remaining vintage toy style stuff can be released online. It sucks and I don't understand how "Fan Favorites" reissues can ship in cases with Cartoon Collection, then why not new figs like Rokkon, but...

They expect Mutated He-Ma'am to sell better than Origins? ???? that's hilarious.

Will be getting this, hopefully. Will be getting most of the TMNT x MOTU stuff now too. Just got Shred and the He-man. They are incredible. Was disappointed about the translucent change but I’m over it. Shred looks good but in hand, whoa whoa whoa.

Moving the Rokkon preorder date this close to the original time. Is Mattel a psychic vampire that feeds on fan ire?

Maybe they want to wait so they can make sure no one can use paypal or something. Oh, yeah, we want as few payment options as possible when doing these.

I work late so waking up like that is tough. I’ll give them a pass because this hasn’t happened before. It’s says they are unable to ship international orders at this time and they a fixing it so that’s probably the reason.

Rokkon is gone. Sold out. Did you comet to buying one or let it rock slide? I prefer something meteor for my money, but...

How long was your meeting? He was available for about an hour and a half.

Although, I think for some countries where shipping was unavailable, it just said sold out.

[Sean C]

People need to network more and say "Can you order me one if I can't?"
and deny some of the scalper market.

Of course, Mattel needs to make these made to order with open order window for days.
But then we gotta wait for months and months.
Maybe do both with Grizzlor. Opening day in stock, next days made to order for another run. They supposed got a lot of orders for Grizzlor, but have not used that model again.

Much to my father's amusement I've dived headfirst into the Masterverse line and am currently kicking myself for missing New Adventures He-Man on Target because jesus those ebay prices.

Because he's a minor character from the tail end of the original line?

Motherboard and Dark-Lyn were exclusives despite having larger roles in the series.

Rumor on some he-man sites was he was originally a deluxe target exclusive but they passed.

Side note….any idea why on my iPad, the creations site won’t let me check out? This happened last month as well, I put my card info in and then a message pops up that there was an error and to try again later? Yet I sign in on my iPhone….same account and use the same card and the order goes right through.

So basically same as the COIE wave from Mcfarlane only Mattel isn't charging a surcharge for no reason.

Snout Spout is still available, either MOTU Origins is more popular or more scalped.

Origins is definitely more popular and more scalped. Tough shit for the scalpers who hoarded all of the Tri-Klops and Grey Stratos Origins, now we have the Cartoon Collection and rereleased figures. I bet they're crying abour hoarding the McFarlane 89 Batman set since it was made readily available , I hope they hoarded the platinum classic Wonder Woman too, nobody wants that shit.

[Comedian]

Well, that was a fast sell out at Walmart this morning. I did preorder all 4 figures.

[Sean C]

Mattel and Walmart can go to a bunch of places I can't write here.

Less than 4 minutes, before I could check out, OUT OF STOCK.
