Wave 18 sounds great; wave 17.. ah well. Not interested in TC Skeletor, but I'll take the other two for sure. I wish they would consider re-releasing Webstor, still stings that he is missing on my shelf. But that guy was impossible to get. But hey, yet another Beast Man, good job Mattel o_O
@abaddon Not sure completing a faction is the goal for a brand like Masterverse, to be honest.
@Lasastard Webstor, Deluxe M.A.A (Revelation) & Stratos, three names I'll remember for their inaccessibility when I boarded the Masterverse train last spring.
@lasastard I'm of the same thought regarding wave 17. Wave 18, Teela and Kobra Khan are definite for me. It would be fantastic to see a reissue of Webstor and Stratos. Here's hoping!
@onlyoneskeletor It might not be the goal of the line (and yeah, I completely agree on that), but I'm hoping they somehow accidentally finish it! 😆 But you're right: It ain't no Classics. I've given up on Masks of Power Demons, Prince Dakon or Melaktha ever showing up in the Masterverse. They're gonna keep the A-List variants coming ... prove me wrong, Mattel.
WANTED IN MASTERVERSE:
Masks of Power Demons, Prince Dakon, Kobolds, Demons (The Terror of Tri-Klops!), Lodar, New Eternia Ninjor, New Eternia Dragon Blaster Skeletor, Lizorr, Hoove, '87 Movie Man-At-Arms, '87 Movie Skeletor Trooper.

I expect a Masterverse Amazon movie line next. Finishing the line is something meant for the direct market like the vintage origins figures. As long as Mattel's goal is to keep putting Masterverse in retal stores I don't think low interest characters is ever going to be their mission.
@mighty-thanos Unless, of course, they decide to pump them out periodically via their online store, as they do for some of their Origins figures (Demo-Man, Geldor...).
@onlyoneskeletor That is what I meant by direct market. If Masterverse became mostly a direct market line maybe we can see them complete something? Right now their main mission seems to be big chain retailers and I don't see that stopping not with this movie coming.
Oh how I'd love for Masterverse to become a direct market line. Maybe AFTER the movie is done and dusted.
The one figure in Masterverse that has given me hope we might see more "low interest characters" is the Skelcon figure, but who knows?

@mighty-thanos My mistake. Returning to the subject of Masterverse selections, for collectors like myself and @abaddon, there is indeed not much to get our teeth into; except perhaps their reinvented subline (New Eternia). It remains to be seen how far they'll go in refreshing their Motu line, but I have an idea where the stop sign might be...
I absolutely HATE how Mattel adds just a couple figures to a line, usually the 2 leaders, and then drops it.
Masterverse got Sun-Man & Pig-Head. Where are the rest? I wanted to see how the other 8 characters would've looked in Masterverse.
It got NA He-Man, Skeletor & Slush-Head, where are the rest? And why did they feel that out of all the characters, Slush-Head deserved a figure? I personally would have gone with Optikk. The only character I like from NA is Optikk.
Mattel stuck the CGI show's He-Man & Skeletor in the line. Only God knows why? Those 2 figures wasted 2 spaces that could have been New Eternia or some Snakemen.
Masterverse got some of the 87 movie figures but they'll probably never make them all. The only character I liked from that movie is Saurod (and they immediately killed him off, just like Motherboard, HOW TYPICAL!). I have the Classics version & would love to see him in Masterverse.
They made She-Ra, Catra & Frosta. I'm still waiting/hoping for the rest of the POP girls.
But they just keep releasing the same characters over & over again like Man-At-Arms, Beast-Man, Mer-Man & Evil-Lyn. And more freakin Skeletors than we could ever want or need.
So Turtles Of Grayskull is a big HELL NO! for me. I really want them to finish all the POP girls. I have all of them from Classics, I'm getting all the Origins & I really want to get them all in Masterverse.
Focus dammit, FOCUS! Finish what you start Mattel.

With Mattel's reveal event coming in 13 days, what are you hoping for?
I really hope they reveal:
1. More POP girls in Masterverse.
2. SNAKEMAN!!! Cobra Khan is supposed to be coming according to Toy Habits but I really want King Hiss & Lady Slither. My MOST WANTED is Masterverse Necro Conda but I doubt we'll ever get that one. I guess you'd call it a "pipedream".
3. Vintage style SCARE GLOW with a proper glow in the dark body. But if they made that I predict it would be the hardest Masterverse figure to get. If it's only available through Walmart FORGET IT.
4. SWIFT WIND. We're getting a 2nd She-Ra (I think) now we NEED Swift Wind.
5. Mantenna. But hopefully he'll look closer the original toy & not the goofy Disney/Filmation version that totally ruined the character IMO. New Eternia please!
6. Saurod. The only 87 movie figure I would buy.
7. More Rulers Of The Sun. That ship has probably sailed but I would like to finish the set, especially Hypno, Bolt-Man, Kikto & Duplico.
8. Vintage Collection Buzz-Off. Probably my #1 favorite MOTU character. Always want more of him. I always say Spikor is my favorite but I always try to army build Andreenids so I buy Buzz-Off the most. I have 5 Origins, 7 Masterverse, I don't collect Cartoon Collection (except for the females) but I'm definitely getting at least 4 Buzz-Offs and I want a new one for Masterverse.
NO MORE SKELETOR, BEAST-MAN or MAN-AT-ARMS!!! Those guys need a vacation. lol HE-MAN too! But we all know Mattel can't stop making him.
