@mrhootiedean I kinda fell like they really overdid the whole Snakemen thing. All these Hero-variants with Snakeskin painted on, I could have lived without. Actually, I do, because I skipped them 😀 S...

Filmation Mer-Man is my most wanted out of the entire origins line, vintage and CC combined. There is just something about that character... 😀 Even bought the CG Mer-man of off Ebay, sure as hell mad...

Well, "only" is relative - at maybe 4 figures a year (?), it'll take well over four years to get through that. Makes me wonder if they either decide to skip some more obscure figures, or shorten their...

I vaguely recall an interview from when the idea to move Vintage Origins to MC was just announced and some Mattel rep assured people that of course everyone who wanted those figures would be able to g...

Mission accomplished, two plastic rock dudes in the bag. This was kinda fun (hung out on the GDL live stream) and surprisingly painless. Still, the thought of having to go through this little exercise...

Luckily, I am in one of those territories (Germany), so I remain hopeful 😉 But I suppose we'll know soon enough... So far the site still complains about me being in the wrong country (I do not disagr...

Well, Rokkon counter ticking down, again! At the moment it is still listed as "this product cannot be shipped to your country". Let's hope they have figured out the reason and have a fix ready to go.

Over here there are still a bunch of figures available via various online stores, including Amazon. Actually, I haven't been to a brick and mortar toy store in a good while. Just too far out of my way...

That I could live with... but the entire rollout of the remainig "Vintage" Origins line is going to be such a pain (one at a time, online, duringvery specific pre-order windows, international shipping...

Well, not sure that this is really a shipping issue and not rather something related to them not being abble to recieve incoming international payments and/or a bug related to calculating final price...

If that turns out to be true I would be very, very, very pissed. He is one of my favorite characters from the line. And main line characters are, imho , an absolute no-go for such a limited release.

Well, that's a bummer, was looking forward to getting my pre-order in. Now I have to do it at work next week... people will surely understand, I just have to explain to them that I need that little ro...

(should probably go into the Action Figures sub forum). Anyway, yes, I think that is a real possibility. Will they do it soon? Hm, not sure. But the "Revelations" Scare Glow is so unredeemably terrib...

I am hopeful that the line still has some life in it. But I am not sure that the direct-to-consumer model is necessarily the way to go. On the plus side, Mattel has control over every step of that pro...

I mean, the discussion of MINT versus loose collecting is as old as the mountains, I suppose. I do prefer unboxing stuff for sure, bit even I keep the occasional carded figure in the collection. But i...

Aww man that sucks, sorry to hear.... as you said, I somehow don't expect Mattel to really do much about it tho either. Unless of course this is an issue with each and every Eternia and some kind of i...

Well, let's hope this is not a common issue... because if it is, Mattel really needs to come up with some kind of apology + partial refund or whatever (well, in this one case they also should figure o...

Glad to see at least two items on that list I absolutely need to have in my collection (Rio-Blast, Bashasaurus). Slimepit He-man...yea, I guess. Unless they make it a stand-alone release - the shippin...

Congrats on the Eternia delivery you guys, I expect many a picture! I will admit, I have had a bit of not-buyers remorse over the past year. It is such an iconic piece... but in the end, it's just to...

At this point I just have to think of this But man, that guy is bitter... that's really not a good way to live.
