  1. 1. What item(s) have you bought or tried to buy from Mattel/MattyCollector.com MOTU, He-Man, Mer Man Skeletor, Beast Man and Tried for Hordak but could not log into your site and therefore failed. 2. Are you in the United States or a International customer United States 3. What overall grade do you give Mattel/Mattycollector.com in regards to your experience with them; A, B, C, D or F. Overall Grade: D Product is an A no doubt but I'd rate the experience an F so therefore I'll settle on D because overall I am very unhappy. Granted I got most of what I wanted but I was on 10 mins before Hordak was listed and refreshed the site for over an HOUR clicking every few mins or even seconds sometimes trying to log onto the overjammed server and could not even once. So therefore I had to pay a scalper double the price for Hordak only MINS after it was listed as sold out. It was not because I was not on time but because I could not log onto the site after we were told what happened with Mer Man would NEVER happen again server wise. This is unforgivable in my book and I will enjoy Hordak a lot less now I can tell you that and also tell you that I am really turned off of this line now.
  2. The Last Man Standing match was crazy, just nuts! One of the top 3 I think special (i.e non regular fall) match I've ever seen. I respect both of those guys for being able to put on a match like that but I have to say I am damn glad the outcome. It is kind of funny to think that Edge became the camp 9 times and may never have won it in a clean or non totally flukey way once as far as I can remember. I was pissed I had to buy that as WWE cut all the live streams off the net but that PPV mainly because of the last match alone was worth more than the entire WM25 I think.
  3. While I don't LIKE to see him go I still say that he still doesn't have what it takes to e a top star in the business. Yes I know he reached the highest point he can get in 2008 but his red hot streak didn't live up to his ho hum championship reign. He is a great entertainer, a vet, seems like he's on the right track personally. I never loved him, I like Matt a lot better but I do wish there were many others leaving before Jeff Hardy.
  4. a little over a year ago Cena would get insane heat wherever he went, for whatever reason I noticed it died down a lot in the US. There are less boos and Cena sucks chants which pains me to admit but it's true. I have no idea what anyone could see in Cena but then agian he's no more of a cookie cutter one trick pony than other huge superstars like Stone Cold or Hogan I'd wager. Still I wonder why the US buys his act but whenever the WWE goes to Europe or Canada, no one feels the need to cheer Cena because WWE tells them to so what about him gets through to those people in the US that does not in other countries?
  5. Bret was overall WAY, WAY better than them in ring wise. And he definitely had a marketable look, a very cool and marketable look especially in the early 90's. His shades and jacket were the coolest thing around. Bret is the ALMOST the greatest pro wrestler, his mic skills lacked a little but he got by just fine on what he had. He is way better than Hogan and even better than Flair. He has a lot of right to say that, very few would dispute him on that I think.
  6. I respect Ric for not wanting to cheapen his retirement by getting in the ring, but that segment made me realize even more what a bloody waste of time and talent in Jericho, the top thing in the WWE that match at WM will be. Flair is old yeah but he is a top preformer. You look at that segment and you look at the ones with Snuka and Steamboat and you see the difference. The angle didn;t become legit until Flair helped sell it. You have those old dinosaurs who can barely move and you expect it to be anything close to a good match? Then you have a guy like Flair who despite his age a year ago put on the best match on the card at WM. Remember two RR's ago? Snuka and Piper hobble down to get in the ring, stand all stiff and pretend to punch eachother a few times before the totally forced and completely unbelievable dual elimination over the top rope. Dont get me wrong those guys especially Ricky were good in their day but age and lack of ring work has reduced them to looking pathetic whenever they do a segment unlike Flair. The irony is that Jericho's character is right about the absolute joke it is when retired dinosaur wrestlers embaress themselves by getting in the ring when they are old and feeble. which makes the angle kind of interesting but makes it a complete waste becaue you knowJericho is going to get his ass beat by those 3 dummies at WM.
  7. Bwahahahaha. thats all I have to say. four months of promos and one match? Smart WWE smart. Carnival freak character. Such a special idea, WWE are legendary geniuses.
  8. I like it. I got it yesterday at Times Square TRU. It has a good likeness to the actor and has more value than the plain Previews exclusive version and if theres one variant thats worth it out of the young Comedian, clear Manhattan and unmasked Rorsarch Its for sure the unmasked Rorsarch.
  9. Booker T isn't there to vouch for him anymore. He is cool just missused.
  10. As am I the guy had zero going for him. Zero, maybe less than zero because of his utterly horrible look. Rhodes and Teddy I am no big fan of nor am I of Randy Orton but I can assure you I wouldn't say the same thing about any of them. they at least have PARTS of the package of the star, Manu was as I said, less than zero. He was a dweeb in every sense of the word. As mentioned prior the look of a heel is super, super important. It's ALL about the look. Is he an intimidating monstor like Kane, Umaga or Knox? Is he a overly handsome cocky slimeball like Orton, Jericho etc? Is he a well dressed rich megalomaniac of a tyrant like JBL, Vince Macmahon? Take these guys and in more cases than not (with the exception of Jericho and maybe Kane) these monseter heels have only two things going for them. Their mic skills and their look. You know the problem with a guy like Manu? Same problem with a guy like Hass on th other side of the fense as a face. No one cares. He might as well be invisible. He's not memorable, not marketable, no one buys it or takes it seriously. No one wants to emulate him in any way (and thats something almost every sucessful heel OR face has been able to do. Bottom line I can name 20 other guys like Manu I can tell you right now will go nowhere and I'd be right.
  11. I knew he would be fired or at the very least kicked out of Legacy and I knew it would be 100% because his looks. Its not about being fat and useless, which he was, the dude didn't even look cool. Umaga is fat and useless but at least he looks cool. I had no idea why they even put him in in the first place. Sim Snuka had potential but also needed a makeover.
  12. Its unrealistic to , think, hope want and thankfully ever see that good for nothing loser CM Punk anywhere near a world title match ever again.
  13. n all honesty Hogan v.s. Austin would be a disaster. Both need a guy that is tchnically sound, athletic and in good enough shape to make them look good. Hogan coulnt fall down to Austins Stunner or pouncing punches which is about all he's got and Hogan wouldn't be agile and careful Enoch to protect austin neck when he slams him around which is about all Hes got.
  14. The phone calls from Prison especially the one where Hogan was discussing with Nick on how they could profit off of of the situation by making a reality TV show about it was almost as disturbing as the aformentioned chimp in CT phone call though.
  15. This comes as a bit of a surprise to me and I realize its most likely to boost is public image but I will admit that it works for me and actually makes me respect him a bit more. Though I'm sure he's rich enough to donate that amount 50 times over and not work any match at all. Nothing will make up for that boor bastard having half a head and his kids being pieces of garbage however.
  16. EDGE Edge is the best thing in the WWE in the last 10 years.
  17. Disgusting, I hate you WWE your product sucks and is ran by a bunch of morons. A high profile storyline GROOMED for him tunrned into a pointless Hardy feud and thye put him on F'n ECW. a RANDOM ECW? He just walks out at the beginning of the show. Pathetic. Seriously. I'm more mad now than I was when they gave the championship to the great Khali.
  18. Hey guys havn't seen this posted anywhere. Sorry I don't have pics but all you guys should PM those figure site press dudes to snap shots tomorrow. I saw these today ; they look good but a bit small in comparison to series 1 I think. There was MGS 4 Raiden, in a crouched position with a sword. Looked pretty cool Vamp from MGS 5, crouched. Looked cool. Big Momma... Not sure from what game, I gues MGS 5 but was in a bodysuit and not the trenchcoat look A crouching Old Snake in a Spier-man-like pose with a cigarette in his mouth, it sounds boring but it was one of the best ones there Finally a Naked Snake in olive Camo standing erect with a gun and a kinfe in his right hand. I loved this one the most but he looked suuuper small in comparison. bad ass looking though. He was sans eyepatch or face paint by the way.
  19. They had on display the 7 of 9 and Borg drone. Both looked great, in the same display case was the Sisko and Chair and the Dukat and Sisko two pack. That was it for Star Trek. To purchase they had TNG wave 5 and DS9 wave 2 minus Kira. I bought DS9.
  20. I admit I always like but didn't buy too many of the 2002 line. My brother bought almost all of them an we repainted a lot of them andthey are all amazing figures, for the most part I must say. But aside from He Man, Skeletor and a couple He man Staction figures (classic color scheme and battle armor He Man, which I love by the way) I never got into getting the rest of them, my brother tayed pretty loyal to them getting almost all of the Stactions now too and all are still on display with the Castle of Grayskull. But with the coming of this new line, I have to say that it's my favorite line since the SOTA Street fighters were going strong. I for one love the fact that they are 80s based. Thats the reason I love the line I think despite the fact that I'll admit the 2002 designs are way cooler, the nostalgia factor and the great quality despite being overpriced is what draws me to this line. Its like when I look at them I see an exact replica of what I had when i was 5, but am amazed at how much better they actually do look when i look at pictures of the old figures. It's like my imagination filled in the gaps of detail and awesomeness and now at 25 years old, these figures actually reflect what my imagination compensated for at 5. Furthermore, not only are they 80s based they are 80's FIGURE based which differ quite a lot from the Filmation cartoon look. Even better for me. I'm not quite sure which was first, He Man or Star wars but I do know that He-Man and all the figures I owned preceded my other childhood obsessions of Ninja Turtles and Batman. These figures were the coolest thing imaginable as a kid. I love how Mattel is bridging the gap between the classic figure look and the classic cartoon look such as the alternate heads for Man at Arms and Mer Man. and accessories like the half swords are such a cool homage to the original line. I have to say though that I wish they went further with the alternate pieces, i.e. Skeletor with looser fitting hood ala cartoon look and peices that can snap on the other side of Man at arms legs and arms to match the cartoon look. Teela is an interesting case. She had the Egyptian snake like headdress on the old figure which had the normal head underneath like the cartoon. I see Mattel sculpted that look, but due to the headdress, she won't have the collar like she did in the cartoon. But what makes her look even stranger is the pieces that extend on the front of her outfit, like the 2002 look and it appears her head crown underneath her headdress protrudes further down her forehead than either the old toy or the cartoon crown did. The alternate 2002 head is pretty cool yes but I'd rather a simple headdress-less head like the cartoon as an alternate head seeing as it doesn't seem like that one is removable like the old toy. Also as in I am to this line I still do plan on skipping out on figures. Stratos was never all that cool in my eyes and is still not a figure I ever owned or plan to own, same goes with Zodac. I was going to skip Faker but he's pretty cool and I went to NYCC so i picked him up/ But Mer Man, Hordak, Teela and Tri Clops will all be mine. I know Stratos is somewhat important but I never had an affinity for him. That being said if they ever get to other obscure characters like Jitsu or Rio blast I'd get them in a heartbeat becaue I had their figures as a kid.
  21. Got the S9 wave 2 minus Kira today at NYCC
  22. Forgive the unimportance of this post, but I was excited so I thought I'd share that just got to meet Scott Steiner at the NYCC! I didn't know any wrestlers would be there, I first noticed Christopher Daniels and Roxxi Laveaux which was kind of cool to see but I didn;t really care after 2 mins so i jut sort of walked by, then saw The Honey Tonkey Man which was kind of neat but again I just sort of waked by but I saw Scott Stiener sitting at a table, there was no one there! He was in his shades and a ball cap eating lunch with his no1 Freak Christa is wife (his old vallet from his WCW days who still looks just as bitchy) I didn't really need a shirtless photo of him signed so I wasn't sure what to do so I just went up to him in the middle of his lunch and stuck out my hand he just sort of looked at me for a sec, I thought he was gonna snap haha but he shook my hand and was actually the second nicest wrestler I ever met (behind Lance Storm) He was very freindly and appreciative In fact he almost looked kind of disappointed when I walked away. It was kind of awkward i had nothing really to say to him haha Anyways though just wanted to share that he does get a bad rap with the fans as being a jerk but to me he was a super nice guy and I'm excited i got to meet him, little does he know that he's like my number one thing to make fun of. I was surprised as I thought he'd be both bigger and have a firmer handshake bu it was still pretty cool to see the "man with the largest Eeaarms in the world"
  23. Thats a shame. This is probably one of the better ones in a long while. While it sucks that there is no Legends other than Ric Flair, the fact hat you can download updates is awesome. I just got a current Cris Jericho in the trunks, Evan Borne and Dibiase, new Edge Attire etc all stuf that couldn't make the first cut of the game due to developing time. Its great. It also has a much improved CAW mode and cool completely different storylines for 5 different characters.
  24. Honestly, I would have liked to see it and all but I really think it would have hurt Rourkes newly re-built credability.
