Jitsu and Fighting Foe Men are must haves for me but Ram Man, King He-Man and Netossa arent bad either. Pass on the other two...they are kinda lame.

So suddenly they are now talking of scrapping the whole line altogether if there are not enough subs?

So making the subscriptions more affordable will basically NEVER be an option. And we'll STILL be doing business with Digital River...

What i see are some great figures! Fangman looks great! Ramman looks awesome! Even the Fighting Foe Men look cool! Horde troops!

i see tons of posts about negatives surrounding the subscription and i gotta say i would rather subscribe and know i'm getting my figures than hunt for them. 25 a figure isn't that much.. it is affordable if you budget your money.

There is alot of talk of the line not moving forward but i believe it will. take a look at the he-man boards and you will see tons of people that have subscribed.

If you dislike the figures (FFM or Fangman) trade them or sell them. There are plenty of people again on He-man boards that are willing to take them.

only complaint i have over DR is they are slooooowwwww to ship.

but as the old addege says "you can't please everyone all the time" some people like to complain... "some men just want to see the world burn. They can't be reasoned with"

oh yeah ....buy a sub so i get my figures

Really like the Fighting Foe Men, they've got a cool vibe. Jitsu is also extremely well done.

I've never been a fan of that sword King He-man has, but his armor is really impressive.

You want dissatisfied customers to put up with the same ol' s*** just so YOU can get your figures?

Good luck with that...

to each his own. if you are so dissatisfied then you would have posted that once and moved on instead i see your posts constantly complaining(don't believe me go check your latest posts. most are complaints)... makes me think that you like to complain...or you like attention..

either way let's agree to disagree and call it a day

i'm looking forward to next year

You're forgetting the world is going to end this year haha. I'm with you on the can't wait for next year and if I could afford it I would defintely subscribe...sadly..even with cautionary budgeting I can't. I just have to hope someone out there doesn't want their Jitsu ram man and fighting foe men.

Just last week they said the subs were at about 46% now he's saying 65-70% and there's only 5 days left to purchase a sub? That doesn't sound like reason to be positive to me. Unless they've reached the minimum already are are just trying to push it even more.

Also, I agree that too many people just like to piss n moan. I haven't had any issues with DR and I don't care about the $5 price hike. Sure I'd like them for less. But it still beats hunting for a decent deal online. Which are few & far between. If you love this line, stfu and buy a sub. If not, don't but still stfu! lmao

For me growing up the vehicles were a big part of the fun as well as Castle Greyskull. I would rather see some of these off the wall figure choices ditched and have at least one vehicle. Im sure there bean counters would say other wise. Also Im not a big fan of being told I need to buy something I dont want. I cant afford alot now so this really sticks with me.

Who aims for the minimum anyway?!?!? LOL A big thing in retail is beating your LY....I know they say this line is for the fans...Great...but having worked in sales for a number of years and being an expert bullshit artist....I can smell BS a mile away...I'm not complaining...I got all three subs this year and I want this to go through. I wish they had a counter that auto updated every time a subscription was purchased so we all could see how well the line is doing.
I really should keep my mouth shut...please ignore all posts by me and SUBSCRIBE TO MOTUC / DCU / WatchmenBF!!!

A real-time counter is a great idea. They really should implement this across all subs. I have no doubt the MOTUC sub will go through. This year, they proceeded with the DC sub even though the buy-in was well below the minimum, and all the DC figs sell out every month. Can't imaging they won't do the same for MOTUC, which seems like the pride and glory of all the matty lines.

I can't wait for Ram-Man. Netossa is good, but I would have rathered had Glimmer or Angella first. Still, a vagina is a vagina in the MOTU world.

It's what I do... and it helps pass the time. Plus it's kinda sad that things have remained constantly disappointing enough that the complaints are still relevant even today.

Good day sir!

Must get Ram-man! Maybe King He-man. I wonder what his bio is. If he's king, what is up with Adam?

As for the subscription thing, I just can't see myself getting one. Can't afford it and I only want certain figures.

Tempted by Jitsu and Ram-Man.

Would anyone know how to get hold of the Orb to go with the stand that comes with the White Sorceress?

I know they're releasing a white Falcon in a weapons pack, but wouldn't it also make sense to have the orb in the pack too? Having an accessory with one figure that is effectively useless without another previously released (and very hard to get) figure, isn't just a little illogical, it seems downright stupid!

I guess maybe a marble will have to do!

Their reasoning is that it would reward collector's who have been there for the whole line, or more incentive to buy every figure they produce. King Grayskull was the first MOTUC figure they produced and he was a comic con exclusive. The Temple of Darkness sorceress is also a con exclusive (not SDCC). The casual fan is not going to be that interested in either figure, most likely.

But, yeah, like you said. A marble will work just fine.
