  1. I will be there tomorrow. Hell yeahhhhhhh :-D
  2. I havent seen anything and i am there a lot but not every minute, lol. I doubt it because again, why now? It makes no sense. The subs are on sale and he needs to deliver. Think of toyguru what you want but i dont see him insulting people. Corporate lies come with the buisness and other companies arent better with that. He is 4? 5? Years in and knows what comes ahead after sdcc. So why should he snap now?
  3. Thats really not losing it. I am even amazed how cool he is with all the negativity around him. Funny thing i noticed just as last year that a lot of forum members who barly post anything show up to talk things down. Even on matty suddenly 10guys with barely 20-30posts show up and talk trash. The thing is why just at that moment when the subs are on sale?
  4. When ur paying $42 after shipping and tax that is a lot of money for a toy that u might not like, want, or are able to sell and the price increases a lot for collectors overseas. That is why the motuc sub and dc sub have not been doing well til the deadline after a few extensionslast year and possibly this year. Throw in the fighting foe men 3pack that a lot of people hated and I still cannot sell without losing money on and then combine it this year with extra figures showing up at big lots for a third of what I paid. And u have some pissed collectors who are tired of mattel, mattycollector.com, toyguru and digital river. Reasons i can understand but that doesnt make a figure suck or look stupid. I had my troubles with DR over the years but i grow over this bs and move on. I always got my figures in the end. Of course a lot just post complaints but if problems are resolved then no one comes back to post about it. If someone is so fixed on toyguru that he cant buy any figures then it must be love, lol. I dont know but i give nothing about toyguru. Do i believe what he says? To a degree yes. I am in the figure buisness for a little while and he has some points. I learned a lot of the last 3-4years and making figures isnt that easy. Even reused bodies cost a lot. Hasbro barely gets anything new on the shelf. Gijoe sub figures cost 30usd. By this logic alone motuc should sell around 60usd then? Still i dont see as much complaints For gijoe. Motuc gets the heat, dont know why. To me all that counts is my collection. What happens around, before, after, i dont care and will be forgotten once this line is done. If money is the issue then one should not subscribe. If you are just into vintage, na, pop or whatever then forget the sub too. Those are issues i can accept and understand but these figures really dont suck. for me its the lies & the insults just cause I don't buy everything ... I also saw the direct they were going in when the subs first came out I just hoped it wasn't going to be true ... I get what you are saying about insulting the figures they are all built the same as the rest how ever I got the feeling that even if tommy just said "I don't like them" he would still be getting ragged on lots of butthurt from people over anything even remotely negative said about motu these days Not from me. I respect it when someone doesnt like a character or a figure. I mean everyone is different and has different likes and dislikes. Things i totally respect. I know a lot are overprotective when it comes to a franchise but also overreacting. For example I hate that hasbro does some Ultimate figures instead of classic characters but they look good i must say. Most are really happy with them so i let it be. I doubt i will get them though. I overreacted too when i read that the new motuc figures looked lame and stupid. I meant no harm. I just love these figures to much for them not to happen. This is the best motu line ever to me and i really dont care what loki ehhhh toyguru says, i just want these figs :-) i guess toyguru still hates the day he picked up the word cherry pickers on the net, lol.

  6. Where would bulldozer fit? If they stop with marvel legends then he will never see the light of day.
  7. Still just because one doesnt like a figure doesnt make it stupid or lame. People should respect other collectors who do like them. A lot around here are just looking for what they had as a child and arent that big into the motu universe wich is fine but saying that a figure sucks just because one just looks at himself is not nice to other collectors who enjoy these figures.
  8. Well why not? I mean they always hinted at figures who turned out to be the figure it comes with. I doubt with all the all star year talk that matty would do something totally different with it. Scorpias tail was also hinted at. I doubt it will be a brand new character called scorpio in the end, lol.
  9. Mattel can make the movie figures that had a figure back in the day so gwildor, blade, saurod have no problem to come to the line. By the way blade is allready hinted at. They showed his sword the last day at sdcc.
  10. I dont know why neca cant continue, i mean they are doing comic based figures while playmates just keeps it on animation. The way i see it, classics will be dead allready because of all these turtles. New animated, classics, vintage ones also make a return and now 90's movie. How manny versions can retail take before they call it over? We all know not much.
  11. The thing is where does this go? These characters loose themself and in time no one even knows what ultron is all about. They change these stories every damn time that its hard to focus on them. Oh now ultron is created by iron man. Back in the day it was pym. In 5 years it will be thor and then he is a clone of apocalypse. 20years later he will be rewritten for ultimate now. It really is a shame how these characters get rewritten and makes them less interesting the more they go on with it.
  12. yes a lot of boxes have these names and if i am not mistaken most figures turn up after a year or so.
  13. Got my subs the first day it went online. Since marvel is kind of dead to me now and neca hasnt much to offer until next year and tmnt classics has nothing really to offer either, i am thinking about getting a dc sub again.
  14. What he means is that the figure doesnt land in the cell. Personally i love the castle now because the jawbridge was fixed otherwise i dont know what i would have done. Now i cant wait to get it. By the way i dont even need a jail in castle grayskull since no one is suppose to enter the castle so why keep prisoners in it? I doubt i will even put it in.
  15. Blades sword is teased. Cant wait to see him. He was high on my wish list. Yes finally.
  16. Age of ultron was so lame. Terminator with superheroes. One of the reasons i didnt went with infinity. They just use the title thats all. Pretty sure the story will go that ultron turns himself into a pizza oven and tries to poison the avengers.
  17. I love them all. Not a fan of the troopers heads but i will get a lot. Who knows maybe one day i get other heads for them. Standor is a waste to me. Dont need celebs in motuc just as i dont need them in my wwe collection. I will do something else with the figure. King of a bummer that goat man is a con exclusive. Hydron is my favorite reveal. He looks amazing.
  18. Hate soft goods. Looks always weird in a few years. Cant really clean it either. Hope that wont be a trend for every figure. Obi wan doesnt looks that good though. The arms look weird and whats with his face sculpt? I need better pics.
  19. Bet that gotham will not survive it. Lol
  20. Ultimate green goblin? Who in this world wants that? Bet that ultimate hobgoblin will be in wave 2. at least black cat looks awesome. Here is hoping she makes it out. I guess the time has come for me to do my own figures. Hasbro just sucks at spiderman villains. I have waited long enough and now i have to deal with movie/ ultimate/ comics mix of waves. No thanks.
  21. Horde Troopers are something that Mattel could put in their store full time and they would sell. Constantly. This just proves the fact that Mattel has no interest in this line actually succeeding. Where does it say that horde troopers will be sub exclusive? Havent heard anything about that. It would make no sense either since its an army builder set.
  22. The new line looks weirds. Reminds me of the latest batman line.
  23. soon you will turn into toyguru's stalker if you continue like that @loll@ i barely noticed toyguru is in that video with all the awesome figures around. I was looking at something else... @hmmm@ I have no idea what you mean. Lol
  24. soon you will turn into toyguru's stalker if you continue like that @loll@ i barely noticed toyguru is in that video with all the awesome figures around.
