Miss Martian and Superboy 2-Pack Preview
 

I am NOT subscribing to a club just to get that Superboy figure!!! That's f***** up, Matty!

you don't need to subscribe. Just pre-order. If they get enough, your card gets charged (hopefully) and you get the 2-pack

Ahem... I'm not paying that much for it OR dealing with Digital River, either.

Neat idea really, here's hoping they can pull it off for the YJ fans.

i seriously doubt this will happen...the meter is so low still and there's only a couple days left... :(

for 50 bucks, I am not surprised. I honestly am curious as to the process Mattel goes through to make a final decision to do something.

I don't collect these, but this is what I heard.

Ok guys we will help youi interested in these products and not tell you the number of pre-orders we need but man it's such a specific number but we can't say.

But we will take your $50 and send it Digital River and we might not charge you but there might be some kind of issue and we will draft the amount and hold it up randomly.

No harm no foul is like matty code for the worst possible case scenario.

Sorry, YJ fans. I don't think you're getting these figures.

I cannot justify paying for figures in advanced when I have figures coming out now I need to pay for.

anybody know what there going to do about the 4 young justice figures they had planned (like red arrow, capt marvel, and the batman redeco) before ending the line?
there was a 4 inch yj red arrow figure on ebay that went for like $100 a few months ago so the figures are "out there" somewhere.

They've extended it through the 31st.

... so lemme get this straight... NONE of these are going to hit retailers... AT ALL. I thought subscriptions would get, in addition to exclusives, first dibs. But now if I'm understanding this correctly, it's either subscription or nothing.

All I want is a black T Shirt Superboy. but I don't want one so bad, I'm willing to bend over and let Digital River and Matty have their way with me.

i really hope this makes it with the extension!

The Miss Martian figure is one I would actually like to get, but I have absolutely no interest in the Superboy figure. I'm also very putt-off by the very high price for them. Considering only one of them comes with any accessories, and that's just MM's alternate head, twenty-five bucks per figure before shipping is outrageous. Though it's not at all surprising. This is Mattel after-all...

The recently announced GI Joe supscription figures are priced at about $25 a figure as well. So it is about the right price point for the limited size run and figure size. Although...the Joe figures do come with a few accessories each so these two could be condidered a bit high in price but not by much.

I don't collect these so I could be wrong but I thought these were pre-orders and not part of any subscription. You still would have to risk getting effed in the a by DR though.

Good for them, but I'm still not going to preorder when it is actually paying for the toys in advanced.

The Young Justice 2pack -- Superboy and Miss Martian -- is through mattycollector.com only (will not be at retail, unless they change their minds and issue these in some line down the road), and will be available only by preordering them through mattycollector. This has nothing to do with a subscription. The subscription (Club Infinite Earths) contains entirely different products. Club Infinite Earths subscribers will not get this 2pack. Buying this 2pack will not get you the products from Club Infinite Earths.

On top of that -- if you preorder this 2pack, you may not get the 2pack. They say they will only make it if they get enough preorders. If they do not get enough preorders, they will not make this 2pack. If you preorder this 2pack and they do not make the 2pack, they will (hopefully) refund all of your money.

If they do not make this 2pack, they will still be making the products for Club Infinite Earths subscriptions. If they do make the 2pack, they will still be making the products for Club Infinite Earths.

I suppose there is the possibility that IF they do make the 2pack, and they make extra beyond the number of preorders they receive, that subscribers would get first dibs at those extra sets because of the Early Access benefit that comes with subscribing. But again that's only IF they receive enough preorders to make the 2pack.

Hopefully all that will clear this up for everyone.

Amazing that extending the presale 2 weeks pushes production back 3 months.

So let me get this straight, they take your money before it is even MADE?!


...THE FUCK?

No. Based upon the experience of those who have ordered already they require a CC at the time of the order. The CC will be charged some small amount to ensure it is an active card, then the money is refunded. The full cost isn't due until the items are prepped for shipment. I am looking for the post in the Ask Matty forums on Matty Collector to find it straight from the horse's mouth, so don't take my word for it. :o

I will repost when/if I find the specific response from ToyGuru.

Oh ok, makes things less bad :P.

Found it! It will not be charged until shipment.
