Same here.

And it says this on the Order Details page:

Track Shipment: Puerto Ric:

Followed by a number, which I'm assuming is the tracking number. What does Puerto Rico mean? That's not where my package is going, is it? I will be freakin pissed if it is.

[trebleshot]

It's probably being shipped from that holding center. Are these being shipped via UPS or USPS?

[brodieman2k]

Mine says the same thing about Puerto Rico with a number after it that doesn't work. I really am not sweating it........maybe I will start sweating it in another week.

[brodieman2k]

Mine justed showed up today. packaging seemed OK. Cards are slightly curved around the top edges. No huge deal though.

[Da_Last_2_Walk]

I ordered another He-Man & Beast-Man today.

[MegaPrime33]

I'm shocked no one has posted pics.

I just checked the website......

Skeletor comes out January 15TH, next Thursday!

The site has also updated these release dates:
Stratos - February 15TH
Faker - March 15TH
Mer-Man - April 15TH

King Grayskull's status has been changed to "No Longer Available"

I missed King Grayskull!

I'd like to have all 3 versions of King Grayskull.

All 3? Regular, Bronze and Spirit?

Yup!

If anybody has these 3 for sale, hit me up!

They must be in MINT condition.

[Chosen]

Good luck! Me, I wouldn't have the gall, not to mention the moolah, to even try hunting down a $3400 figure. But it does look pretty neat.

Thanks!

The $3400 isn't a problem, it's the fact that there are only 2 "Spirit of Grayskulls".

Do you know who owns one?

Didn't want anyone to forget that the MattyCollector.com Exclusive MOTUC Skeletor is to be available for order tomorrow (1/15/09) at 12:00 PM EST, right here:

MattyCollector.com Online Store - Masters of the Universe® Classics Skeletor® Action Figure

[Ktulu]

Cool. I might actually splurge for Skeletor. Maybe.

BTW - I hate the way they crouched He-Man in his package. Constipated disco dancing.

I hate the way Matty Collector crammed my He-Man & Beast-Man figures into the shipping box.

I'm going to order 2 Skeletors, but I'm going to order the 2nd figure after I get the 1st figure in the mail.

Sucks.

Was it as bad as Hasbro Toy Shop? Their packing has been a nightmare for me, I always get damaged toys - and often get the wrong toys

I've never ordered from Hasbro Toy Shop. All my MOSC toys must be in mint condition. I only buy modern toys that I can hand pick myself.

Hasbro Toy Shop has started to sell AFA Joes, so I'll probably order something soon.

[MegaPrime33]

I love this toy line, but the price tag is killing me. I can buy 2 classic Ninja Turtles for one of these and still have change left over for Taco Bell.

[Ktulu]

Price is killing me too. If I had decent income, naturally I wouldn't mind, but I'm almost always freakin broke. Toy collecting is about the worst hobby I could possibly be into. Coming to this site every day, constantly seeing more stuff I want sure isn't helping Glutton for punishment, ahoy!

I do the same for the most part. There've been exceptions (such as last year's SDCC exclusives, or the ML Sunfire) where my only reasonable option was HTS however.

Anyway, I didn't intend to derail the discussion from He-Man. It was just interesting to hear Mattel just threw the toys in a box with no care. Sounds a lot like HTS. It seems these companies would understand that collectors want their items to arrive as pristine as possible and do their best to allow for that. I certainly don't think we should have to splurge for AFA graded ones to get that treatment either.

BUT - Oh well! I suppose toy packaging isn't really worth getting too upset over in the grand scheme.

I know, the other sites I go to concentrate on one line of toys.....this site has all the toy lines!

If I can't find a specific toy MOSC, I normally go to ebay to find an AFA graded one.

Last time I ordered 4 figures at once. I assumed that Mattel would pack the items with care. I understand that most collectors don't care about damaged packaging because they are going to open it anyways....but some of us high end collectors want high end toys!

That's why I'm only going to order 1 Skeletor at a time. Maybe that will work?

[Da_Last_2_Walk]

Damn, these new He-Man Classics are commanding high prices on ebay!

[Da_Last_2_Walk]

I just ordered Stratos!

I hope he arrives undamaged!

[Da_Last_2_Walk]

Damn!

Stratos sold out in 3 days!
