MV feels done to me. These 3 new reveals are so lame.

It makes me wonder if Mattel is considering a crossover with another property..?

DCU x MOTU? (Mattel is reacquiring the DC license soon...)

Yep, that She-Ra is supposed to be her vintage toy look.  I can see it better with this pic...

I totally see what Mattel is going for... but, the execution isn't quite working for me.

@durendal this is the worst wave since wave 1. Shame bc they’ve come along way

@depp76 they all say that.

It might get the Hordak, just because... I snoozed on the PoP MV Hordak, so I still need one that isn't the weird one from Revelations/Revolutions. But She-Ra... not feeling it. And TC Skeletor looks flat our terrible, good lord 😀

Mattels MOTU team seems a little rudderless at the moment. Opening one sub line after the other, with very inconsistent quality (design-wise) and distribution. 

@lasastard  They are all over the place.  Let's face it, no use having all these sublines if you're not going to do anything with it.  I stick to NE in the hope that yes, we will get a full contingent of snake men and the Horde.  And perhaps a few first time figures too.

I must be the only one who actually likes TC Skeletor, I think it looks neat.

Still want DB Skeletor, though. 

@ornclown Yeah she looks a bit off to me, but I will wait to see the final product before deciding on purchasing her.

Hordak is awesome. I love the original gray Hordak.

She-Ra should've been one of the other POP girls. I want Mermista, Castaspella, Netossa, Sweet Bee & Entrapta. 

And another Skeletor??? I just got Skeletor with the throne, BA Skeletor & Skeletek. I'm getting burnt out on Skeletor. 

3 more figures we already have. Doesn't tooling & the molds cost a fortune? I'd rather Mattel put all that money into Mantenna, Mosquitor or King Hiss.

@sci-fitsunami That's why Masterverse is so boring now. It doesn't offer nearly the dynamic character selection that Origins has. I'm seriously considering jumping off, and up to now I've been an all-in collector. 

Work harder to retain my interest (ie. MONEY) Mattel - I can tell you it's definitely not variants of the same boring characters ad nauseum.

I received Panthor today, and it's far better than in the pictures... Perhaps there is still hope...

And now the waves have been cut down to 3 figures. Not counting the Vintage Collection.

Wouldn't it be nice if we had some way to let Mattel know that it is now BORING? I dunno, maybe it's just me, but completely cutting off all communication & feedback from your customers might not be the best or smartest strategy.  

You think Mattel will ever notice that the stores are drowning in Flying Fists He-Man? lol

@sci-fitsunami Maybe the newly launched Club Grayskull will provide that opportunity. I'd like to think that their exclusive, members-only fan forum will be something they ought to pay particular attention to. I know I for one will be giving them an earful on there since they like to pretend that forums like this one don't exist.

That's always a good idea... especially with Mattel's penchant for terrible toy photography.

It is going to be hard to follow that last Evil-Lyn figure though... she is just gorgeous. She set a high bar for any future MV female figures.

Fantastic idea! 

I have to agree these latest reveals are pretty disappointing, and share the view that Mattel tends to shoot itself in the foot with repeat (dull) releases of the same d***d figures over and over again. That's what killed the 200x line and here we are again. 

That said, our latest Evil Lyn is drop dead gorgeous. Then my Panthor arrived on Monday, and I have to say he is jaw-droppingly good. He is better than Classics, and I have both. So I guess I'm saying there's some good stuff too...

I have 2 Horde Troopers, Panthor & wave 11 Trap-Jaw coming from Mattel Creations. Due Saturday but with Fedex who the hell knows? lol From the pictures, I don't like the shiny metallic Panthor but I'll have to see it in person.

Well, only 21 more hours to go until Mattel reveals 100 more Skeletors, Man-At-Arms & Beast-Mans.

I REALLY hope they reveal a proper glow-in-the-dark Scare Glow. But just like Sci-Fi in GI Joe Classified, if I want it, we won't get it.  

@sci-fitsunami I thought the same thing about Panthor but he definitely looks better in person.

That happens to me a lot.  Meh! online but HOLY S**T! in person.  Happened recently with Origins Modulok. 

@sci-fitsunami Yes, definitely wait and see. Tell us what you think!

One thing I already do know is that I prefer the Classics helmet with the big horns on top. Not a fan of the new one. How is Panthor supposed to bite anything with those tusks blocking his mouth like that?  Seems like a dumb design to me. It's a cat not an elephant. WTF?   

@sci-fitsunami Yep, I agree, if the helmeted look is important to you. For me the helmet has never been part of Panthor's look - as cool as the Classics rendition was (and it WAS cool) ; the evil cat has always appeared in my collection bareheaded. But I take your point: this new helmet wouldn't allow for much biting. 

@ornclown oh yeah she was fantastic!

I'm surprised nobody is talking about Mattel's big reveal day. What a crock of s***!  The big "reveal" was an Origins figure we already saw. lol  And Blade?  I hate that character but the figure looks really good. I think that body would look great with a different, less goofy-looking head.

So when will we be seeing all the new stuff actually revealed? Like the oversized Moss-Man they were talking about? SDCC?

I just watched a new Mad Hatter video and he was talking about the crazy prices some Masterverse figures are going for. He said he missed out on BA Skeletor and NE Mer-Man. It was weird because Youtubers always seem to have everything & never miss out.
