  1. "lol you sure about that?" Yes. I am. Why would I question a Jazwares representative when a website that has nothing to do with the production of these figures made a mistake labeling their pictures? But as I said, feel free to continue to disagree. It still doesn't change anything.
  2. The ninja is Smoke, and the unpainted prototype next to Cage is Kano. RHunter, Jazwares representative, has said repeatedly on other forums that wave three, if they get the chance to release it, will be Cage, Kano, Reptile and Smoke. Feel free to argue or disagree. It doesn't change the fact that you will be wrong.
  3. On top of Castle Greyskull, leaning against the rampart.
  4. I believe I speak for the rest of the world when I tell the Homophobic He-Fans of this forum to get a freakin' sense of humor. And while you're in the market, look into acquiring a life, too. Thank you.
  5. prozac- I just stopped by there and they had one Morgul Lord, one Merry, and ten million King Aragorns. The two former are now in my collection, and the Aragorns are still there.
  6. "Return of Supmerman Series 2," huh? Oh, man... Too funny.
  7. A couple of politely worded rebutals to your points. 1) He-Man is most certainly NOT a cornerstone of the market by any stretch of the imagination. Half the stores in North America ceased to carry it, and the other half has nothing but He-Variants pegwarming for 6-12 months at a time, completely ignored by everyone. 2) Now, maybe your location is different, but here, where I spent the summer watching four different stores seven days a week, the Ninja Turtles were selling very well consistently throughout both the new episodes and the repeats. Kids were constantly begging their parents for them, and, again, ignoring He-Man. 3) .....again? Mattel made... what, one commercial? And how many times did it air? I seriously doubt that Mattel is about to start pushing their property suddenly. They've shown no interest in doing so thus far, and I really doubt they will start now that they're convinced its almost dead. Kids weren't eatting it up when the He-Man cartoon was on in the afternoon, and they probably won't start now. At least, that's the way things are based on my observations.
  8. "If a line doesnt sell well it would most likely be canceled. So saying if such and such doesnt sell it will be canled isnt breaking news." Exactly, yo. No one should be taking this as "news"... we've been hearing the same since before SDCC, when we were told by Jeremy Padawer that "The Snake Men may save Eternia."
  9. *idly wonders what this has to do with He-Man* Click here.
  10. I'd prefer to see a wave of Quarry, Stonebiter and.... uh... the other guy.... plus the Necromancer villain from the Notes From the Underground miniseries before we see this chick and the "Green Man." The two characters from today's episode just didn't have the same cool factor that the others did... though I certainly wouldn't mind figures of them eventually. Actually, now that I think about it, they should probably make an Oraku Saki and a scientist Baxter Stockman before these two... In my mind, anyway.
  11. "Screw you & HA HA I got a great deal and it was worth the post!" I spent five bucks on Mossman, and ten, I believe, to have someone custom make a Faker for me who looks just as good as Mattel's. That's fifteen. I think I may have gotten the better deal, but my math isn't so good, so I could be wrong.
  12. Yeah, but when? Or do we only know something like "Fall 2003"?
  13. *snort* I did for a while, around the time that Deadly Alliance came out. Mortal Kombat fanboys are among the most immature, pathetic and childish I've ever had the displeasure of having to interact with. Say anything that doesn't correspond with the popular point of view there, and you'll receive a plethora of death threats within seconds.
  14. We got the new Turtles villains in at work today. I now have the Nanotech Monster, two Tech Ninjas and I picked up my third regular Foot Ninja. Ha! That's better than you! MUWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Oh, wait, you mean I'm supposed to use that PMing feature? But then how can I brag publicly? Hehe. Oh, fine, fine, I'll get relatively on topic... What's next in line for release after these two? Just the sewer armor Turtles? Are any of the other secondaries coming out soon, like the wave of videogame villains? Do we know dates for them yet? Somebody throw me a bone, heh. ....and I'm still cooler than you, Mandalorian, hehe
  15. [mindless fanboy] How DARE they!!!!?!?!?!11?!!?//?1!? MATTLE R KILEING TEH LIIN!!!!!1111!1!! [/mindless fanboy] Seriously, people. Wake up. Mattel stopped producing He-Man action figures for two decades. They lost the copyrights to many names. Why would they keep the copyrights to characters they never thought they'd use again? Hasbro/Lucas has a figure named Kit Fisto. They picked up the name while Mattel didn't have it. How was Mattel supposed to know that that would happen? If anything, you should be mad at Hasbro for not allowing Mattel to use the name... legally, Mattel's hands are tied. What would you prefer? Mattel doing the best they can (i.e., renaming the figure as closely to the original as possible without being completely crazy), or just scratching the character completely because they don't have the rights to the original name anymore? I'm as upset with Mattel these days as anybody else, they're obviously making a lot of mistakes. And sure, maybe they should have kept up the copyrights to their character's names, just in case they decided to use them again. But mindlessly blaming them for something that isn't their fault? Good God, you're just screaming fanboy. Thanks for making the rest of us toy collectors all look bad, people. We all appreciate it.
