I only grabbed one, but I just hope that it doesn't arrive damaged.

Oops!

Somehow I got 2 order confirmations!

I hope I can cancel!

MegaPrime33 · 06-15-2009, 10:01 AM

Was it of the same order number or different? And yeah, that pretty much sucks if they put in another order for you. I wonder if that's done on purpose to sell more and then they just blame the site for it, in hopes people will just accept it and pay for the extra.

The order numbers are different.

What's weird is that I only went to the "order confirmation" page once!

.....You might be right!

Da_Last_2_Walk · 06-15-2009, 10:08 AM

.....And Hordak is sold out after 1 hour!

I'm curious how large the run was for Hordak, especially since Matty stated they were going to up the production numbers to try to keep them in stock for at least a week.

ludovicotek · 06-15-2009, 12:09 PM

I want one

Snowflakian · 06-15-2009, 06:25 PM

You'd think after this now with Hordak, and all the previous, they may reconsider stores with them.

I'd buy Hordak or King Grey Skull in a heartbeat if they were on shelves. But dammit 2k3 was over before then, and they just kept pumping out he-man variation after he-man variation instead of the awesome characters.

Now they are doing it right, covering each character in perfection once, but they are making it a pain in the butt to even attempt to order em!

MegaPrime33 · 06-17-2009, 03:59 AM

Got my shipping confirmation email.

Da_Last_2_Walk · 06-22-2009, 09:54 AM

I just got my 4 Hordaks today!

MegaPrime33 · 06-22-2009, 09:57 AM

Mine is out for delivery. Won't get it till I get home today.

Only 1 out of 4 arrived undamaged!

I hope you get lucky!

MegaPrime33 · 06-22-2009, 01:02 PM

Yeah me too, definitely. Tracking places it already outside my door. Hopefully it's someplace safe and out of the rain.

Gorgeous. Just gorgeous. I am utterly jealous of you that have this guy.

MegaPrime33 · 07-04-2009, 08:02 PM

Decided to sell my figure, put it up on ebay, and lost money on it. I'm really surprised it didn't even break even. The market seems to be dropping out on this line.

trebleshot · 07-06-2009, 09:41 AM

I wonder if it might be because the only ones who can really afford them are collectors and they are having a hard time getting them all (i.e. completionists need not apply, unless you're DL2W

).

On the other hand, it might be because the ones who really wanted it got it when it first came out and the ones who were either lukewarm to the idea or missed out due to low production numbers figured they wouldn't have a shot in the aftermarket.

MegaPrime33 · 07-06-2009, 09:48 AM

It basically looks like the 2 main characters, He-Man and Skeletor are the ones making the money. He-Man is going for like 80 on avg. But all other characters are going for less than what matty was selling them for. I figured Hordak would have been the exception, but nope.

Basically if you want to collect this line, hit ebay as there is a good chance you could get them all for less than cost.

trebleshot · 07-06-2009, 10:16 AM

Ironic, considering one of the big complaints about 2002 MOTU was the lack of characters other than He-Man and Skeletor (and their associated variants).

MegaPrime33 · 07-06-2009, 10:39 AM

Agreed. In fact that is my biggest complaint for that line. It was impossible to collect it. I don't want or need 10 different He-Men/Skeletors.

ludovicotek · 07-06-2009, 12:55 PM

That sucks man. Sorry you lost money on Hordak. Rough times I tell ya.
