@daavid I really thought we'd get a crowdfunding item for 2023 bro. First it was like YEA ETERNIA'S CHOICE and then it just kinda fizzled out and feels like they'll get to it when the get to it. Wasn't the Eternia playset super successful? Ever hear of striking when the iron is hot Mattel? Idunno

It sure is quiet around these here parts lol. Â
We need some new Origins announcements!
Â
Â
Given the move to the cartoon collection I am not really excited about the upcoming figures personally.
Â
I ponder how Mattel believes these figures will be appealing to collectors who already own the Classics cartoon line.
Â
Â
I could have been more into it if they were doing what Super7 did in doing figures that are a cross between Filmation and vintage but more articulated. My main gripe with these figures are the cartoony heads and that they don't even fit in scale wise with the other Origins figures.Â
Â
@he-dad I know, they are really leaving us wondering what is going on. I hope they give us something to get excited about before year end.

@daavid my guess is that we won’t have any new announcements until after the Holidays

I did find it peculiar that Mattel abandoned their 40th Anniversary 4-Pack design.

That's a good point bro. Everyone seemed happy with that filmation figure. Maybe cuz those things still haven't sold out. Idunno.

They showed us Sy-Klone and Extendar in July, and since then...nothing. So annoying to leave us hanging like that.Â

With the cartoon and the turtle figures the vintage line feels dead.Â
@kraken it feels very strange when all I have pre ordered from BBTS is the 3 cartoon figsÂ
Duplico is available on Mattel Creations at the moment.
Here's the link for Duplico pre-orders shipping in May.

@smitty-81 I know it's not dead. I only said it feels dead right now with the cartoon collection and tmnt waves taking the entire spotlight. I know we will get more vintage in 2024 on Mattel Creations but it won't be like it was. We won't have more vintage waves to look forward to. At least Eternia will finally ship next year.
