Nice to get the Egon , but to little to late. AND Egon is not even the right color of suit, look it up.

Also , I really do not see them doing a Snake Mountain playset. As much as I might love one, Castle Greyskull sold rather poorly and they have said many times that SM is not likely to happen.

I expect them to announce the new Point Dread and the Talon Fighter at SDCC along with the Filmation Teela they showed in the last reveal video. They had it off to the side and turned around like they were trying to hide it but not really.

I'm sure Castle Grayskull sold just fine. The only reason why they have hundreds left over is because during the initial pre-order sales drive, they pulled a bait and switch, so bad to the point where legally they had to amend the rules, and customers were now allowed to cancel their pre-orders. It went from "No Cancellations" to a window of time where customers COULD cancel the pre-order. Reason is because of false advertising, not fulfilling the agreement regardless of all the fine print mumbo jumbo that was in their pre-order rules. we were promised one thing, and they didn't deliver... and Neitlich (being the brand manager at the time) probably figured he could get away with it. At any rate, the 4H even hinted to a Snake Mountain, and it's supposedly going to be very tall (once assembled).
I wouldn't rule it out just yet. Also... Mattel probably figures Point Dread will help sell off the remaining Castle Grayskulls. There's a reason for everything Mattel does, but it's all based on coercion, not actually giving a crap about what customers really want. Apparently Mattel plans to go ahead with the SOHM nonsense that Neitlich started. Naturally Mattel is OK with this because the overall plan involves virtually no new tooling and MUCH reuse of existing tooling. Anything that looks good on paper, where it saves them money they love... but they really don't consider if fans actually want any of that SOHM crap. They just figure they can MAKE fans want them. It's all about marketing head games... no pride in the actual MOTU property.

Did they just take the DC body and put Egon's head on it?

I have mixed feelings about this Egon figure, but will probably buy it for the accessories.
