  1. The 24 pack cases of Man-E-Faces is wild! Is that crazy to see or what!!
  2. Wondering what happened to some of the stock that didn't make it to Big Lots? Check out this link to Toynk.com http://www.toynk.com/results.cgis?catalog=COMMON&keywords=masters+universe&x=0&y=0 They have all of the common Big Lots finds, they are really pricey though. As a fan of this topic I thought you all might enjoy it as much as I did. I guess Big Lots wasn't the only ones that helped Matty clean out his warehouse.
  3. In NC today finally found Orko, They had 4 Megators, 3 Adoras, 3 Mossmans, 3 Icarius, 2 Molars, 2 Orkos. Still really want TP He-man, Leech, Grizzlor and Snout. Keep looking though to all of you worried about them drying up. I asked an associate about them 2 weeks ago and he looked at a schedule and told me a truck was coming a week and a half later with several MOTU's on the list. I was counting the days, but waited and went on the day he said and he was right on the money, so just because your store has nothing now it may have the goods a week and a half later. I love when you can find helpful associates, they are truly rare creatures in my retail neck of the woods. Also, to agree with LJ, the excitement of this has really got me leaning towards a sub. Would be my first.
  4. Thursday July 26, in Mount Airy, NC found the following all in white mailer boxes: 1 - Mossman 1 - Man-E-Faces 1 - Sy-Klone 1 - Chief Carnivus 1 - Icarius 1 - Adora 1 - Count Marzo 1 - Clawful 1 - Faceless One 1 - Ghostbusters Ray/Egon Friday July 27, In Elkin, NC found the following, salesperson says they received all without mailer boxes: 1 - Catra (amazing!) 2 - Sy-Klone 2 - Chief Carnivus 2 - Count Marzo 3 - Faceless One 1 - Skeletor/Molar (awesome set! never saw in person before, $10 is a steal) I know this can be looked at as a bad move from Matty, but honestly for people like me that have passed on all but about 7 in the line due to the high cost, this is a great way for me to actually get these figures that I otherwise would have passed on. Plus, they are all 2nd printings. The real collector's items are the rare 1st runs, so it doesn't really hurt the collector's market in my opinion. Plus, if Matty would have put these up on their site for $10 Scalpor would have bought all of these and charged his usual high prices. This is bringing back the excitement for me, I am loving it. I know everyone is hating on Molar but I think he is so cool. I could totally see a figure like this in the vintage line. He has some cool weapons and Skeletor's dark green face really sells the set for me. On the bad side, when looking at some of these figures in person, I see why I quit paying $30 bucks for them in the first place. Adora's eyebrow was smeared and at first thought her butt was on the front, haha, also her insert was bent badly. This was the main one I wanted so I will deal with it. When I took Icarius out of the mailer, his hand was twisted around backwards and his arm armor looked very awkward. Faceless One had a bad paint job. Kind of made me think that a bunch of these were customer returns to Matty, but the others were flawless. Best by far have been Man-E, Clawful, Catra, and I wasn't expecting how good Count and Sy-Klone would look in person.
  5. I guess it is all just a matter of opinion. When it comes to DCUC's I have only collected the DCUC Batman related figures since series 1, I have never had the urge to buy a non-batman related character. The contained version of Doomsday however about made me fall out of my chair. This is a figure I have waited for FOREVER!!!!! I love both and want both badly, but the first one is a dream come true. I prefer it 10-1 over the tier 2 version (even though Mattel's version looks like perfection) so I guess it just depends on the person. If they make a beaten and bloody Superman though my preference would probably even out at 50/50. You would have to have a tier 2 version to wail on 'ol Supes.
