@durendal I think it would be interesting but not very popular.

@asterstar That's my point though - how would you guys feel about characters like Stinkor in Filmation style figure form even though they never appeared in the show? I think doing stuff like that would be really interesting.
I like this idea. This was my hope for Revelation when I first heard they were making a sequel to the classic cartoon. To see the original animation models expanded with a larger roster in a similar style.
Effing Facebook...
So there is a post on tiktok from a toy convention that confirms The Eterinos Palace, Queen Marleena,Female Eternian guards. And multiple family members of Orko. All in origins.
wow, if this turns out to be true it would be awesome!

@daavid it would be awesome, especially since we never got a vintage Marlena figure. That's a gaping oversight that Mattel absolutely needs to correct in Origins. Personally I'd like to see the 200X inspired armoured Marlena that got teased last year on card art in the VC, and the green dress Marlena in the CC.
It would also be nice to get another shot at figures of Orko's main relatives like Uncle Montork and Dree Elle, since the Super7 versions are prohibitively expensive...
And finally an Eternos Palace playset, after 40 goddamn years? Sign me up.
@durendal completely agree.
As much as i love the Eternia playset, it always baffled me that after spending years establishing the world of Eternia in the cartoon, why they never gave kids Eternia, (i.e. the Palace) to play with. And then they put the name Eternia on something none of us recognised. Just odd decision making.

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.

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
I'm so glad I'm not a MOC collector.

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.
