Have you seen the prices for Battle Armor Skeletor on eBay? 

What the hell is Mattel doing?  I can't believe a Skeletor variant is super ultra rare. There are so many Skeletors in this line how could this happen to any of them? And at the same time, my Walmart is jam packed with Flying Fists He-Man.

Masterverse is always super easy to get. But then crap like Webstor, Buzz-Off & BA Skeletor happens. It always happens to my favorite characters. I wish somebody from Mattel would communicate with us. Are they producing less of certain characters?   

You can pre-order that Battle Armor Skeletor at Books a Million for $21.99.  That's what I did.

I saw that too but I don't think it's legit. Underneath it says Alliance Entertainment is selling it not Books A Million and they probably didn't update their listing. They also sell stuff through other big companies like Walmart.

The problem could be the demand is extra high because that BA Skeletor is hot! Look at Man-Of-War. He was also part of that wave and you can get him on eBay for 16 bucks.

Yeah, I jumped on Sy-Clone thinking he'd be hard to get.  Still love the figure, though. 

I am still surprised that figure wasn't a juggernaut sales-wise!

Same story is with New Eternia Stratos...I think there is only 1 on Ebay and the price is about 150 $...

I think it's about time Mattel released a Masterverse version of the Fan Favorite line.

You can still pre order him

@brasco I have considered that but the exchange rate is pretty crap right now.  I've decided to hang back til he becomes available locally and cross my fingers.

Do any of you have experience with Books A Million pre-orders?  Do they actually get the items in? I want to pre-order a couple items but they've been sitting there for a long time & never seem to come in stock. I read that when Entertainment Earth lists something as BACKORDER they never get the item. I had BA Skeletor pre-ordered on EE and they eventually canceled it. I get the feeling it's the same with BAM. Anybody know for sure? 

Battle Armor are my favorite variants of He-Man & Skeletor. BA Skeletor was the one I was clamoring for so there was no way I was going to miss him.

I don't know how to imbed an image on here. I only see the attchment option. 

I have no experience with that particular store, but I would be very sceptical of a store that has no real track record in toys and such to be able to deliver a figure that is evidently out of stock everywhere else (globally!). Most likely the status of that item just wasn't updated correctly and you'll end up waiting forever until some intern realizes their mistake ^^

Yeah people who don't normally collect motu bought that figure because it's so fire.

BAM isn't selling it. It's a different seller. Big companies like Amazon and Walmart let others sellers sell their product through their site for a cut or the money. BAM does it too.

I am glad I bought one when I did. I love his breather mask. It looks like something an airforce pilot would use.
