Mattel 2014 Subs Info
 

I am still hoping Mattel will announce a Captain Power Classics subscription at SDCC.

If they do, then that will be the first Matty sub I jump on.

I'm sorry...but they expect us to blindly subscribe without seeing 1 single figure? dont get me wrong, I'm prepared to subscribe, and intend too, but I'm a little miffed that they would offer a subscription without showing atleast the first figure. or giving us a name

Wow, they actually are trying something new! You can choose to ship your figures quarterly. . .kinda like a Pile 'o Loot!

And they're also trying something old. Raising the prices. $20 per DC figure for subscribers/$23 for non-subscribers. It was $18 & $20 this year, right? (I didn't subscribe. . .too rich for my blood.)

Why can't they do Pile-O-Loot NOW? I'm fed-up with paying $38 for a single figure mailed to me. And why can't they take an order for DC figures to be shipped with the MOTUC sub figure? I've grown to absolutely despise this company over the last 3 years.

Their blah blah blah in the details of how it will work next year is a bit fuzzy, but I read it as saying that after the first quarter (why the first quarter has to work this way, I don't know) that your whole Pile can ship together, across subscriptions.

But I don't know how day-of sales would work, I assume they would ship separately.

Because that would steal Mattypalooza's thunder. Basides, it's not like you have to subscribe before SDCC. You can still wait until after the Con before pulling the trigger. What's Matty going to do, tell you "No, we don't want your money anymore"?

I totally agree that a teaser would've been great, but from a business standpoint I can see why they wouldn't want to do that.
