Hm makes me wonder how this is gonna work tho. Do we think that the Palace will be part of the CC and find its way onto store shelves? Or will this be part of "vintage" Origins? Not exactly excited at the prospect of having to deal with yet another Creations pre-order (it just sucks for international fans having to deal with the added shipping costs, which will undoubtedly be substantial for something like a play set). 

In any case, great to hear that they are still committed enough to consider releasing more play sets and vehicles! Still waiting for a vintage-inspired Fright Zone, especially after they snuck it into Revolutions.

@lasastard not to mention that as we head into March,  MC still is not accepting international orders from most countries. 

I imagine there will be another VC release in March and many of us don't know how or if we will be able to get it. It sucks.

Just got email from bbts that 2 comic man e faces have been canceled.  Its the only figure i have missing to have complete collections. Got screwed by amazon the first time around with this figure. I knew bbts would never be able to fulfill this item.

Dang.  BBTS just pulled a Target move and cancelled my mini-comic Man-E-Faces that I've had on pre-order since last August.  Seems Mattel sold out before they could fill their orders for him.  So I just now jumped over to Amazon and ordered him again, which is where I initially ordered him in the first place before Amazon cancelled that order, which is when I then ordered him from BBTS.  And now BBTS cancelled.  Geez. 🙄

But that's referencing the upside down dimension lol.  I think it's pretty cool how they did it.

@brasco Like @deep76 said it's a reference to the "upside-down" in the show, it's also how the Stranger Thangs x TMNT figures were packed.

 

Here's the link to Toyhabits https://toyhabits.com/skeletor-and-demogorgon-target-exclusive-motu-stranger-things-crossover-in-box-image/

Well since Amazon canceled last year and bbts canceled this week, i bought 2 comic man e faces off an amazon reseller for 40 a pop. Just came today, both cards are crap. I was hoping that one would be good, since the other is to be played with. But both crap. I love how a reseller has so many of these from amazon, but seems like the collectors all got canceled. Done ranting. 🤐

@banthafett well I did that with scare glow from Walmart a while back but I went a little overboard. I ordered 6 hoping to get a good card but they were all crap. Luckily BBTS had the collector grades back in stock a few months later

It's honestly kind of annoying to me the huge number of people on Facebook who are posting that they are wanting the Eternia set now and willing to pay astronomical prices for it.  If they had just backed it in the first place they would have saved alot of money, but more importantly we could have had more tiers unlocked.  I mean I assumed this would happen, but it's still annoying lol.

@depp76 personally, i didn't have the cash to back it within the timetable they gave. Well, I did but with Christmas in the horizon at the time and having 5 kids, I wouldn't have been a very popular father if I had gone for it 🙄

Fast forward a year and a bit and I have the money available. I think Mattel could have left a bigger window tbh.

@depp76 everyday life comes first and  these people probably couldn’t afford it. Second, the non payment plan shunned people away. (Wasn’t available for the whole crowdfund?) I can’t remember

Yeah I totally understand and get what both of you are saying.  The time of year they did the crowdfund right before Christmas was not ideal, plus yeah all the issues that came about with the payment plan didn't help the situation.  I guess I'm just seeing all these mad posts from people saying that now they have no choice but to go to eBay and pay outrageous prices and how it's stupid that it's not being sold in brick and mortar stores and stuff like that.  That's what annoys me I guess lol.

Hope the people getting those awful turtle figures can slow down the traffic for us who want those awful snake figures.

Hmmm...

Well I thought Lord Gr'Asp was supposed to be a Walmart exclusive, but this certainly changes things up a bit...

@depp76 Interesting. Generally I have found figures at Target easier to find than Walmart. Hopefully this gives people more of a chance to get him!
