They kind of did that in really poor way with season 1 though, with the two guys in the invincible orb ships...man, that was a build up to nothing.

On a side note GI Joe extreme has NA he-man ansd skeletor working together. Even has David Kaye pop up as a voice too I just rewatched the first episode and I'm pretty sure it was animated by AI. I dont remember the animation not making sense.

Necro-Conda went up on BBTS this morning so I ordered one. Wasn't he supposed to be a Walmart exclusive?

So Spector Creative did another video repeating the same false claims he's made all along with a healthy amount of denial. He still claims he was right about MotU leaving retail, but then said he was only talking about the fall releases (which he never said) and that there are currently no MotU figures at retail right now, which isn't at all true. He also said the TMNT line doesn't count and isn't a MotU line. He then ended with his usual doom and gloom line about how the line can't survive being online only and never meet its MOQ (despite always selling out on MC). Needles to say the comments were relentless and surprisingly he took the video down, replacing it with two other videos.

I do wonder now if that was a bit of foreshadowing? The bindings in these bits of concept art do suggest some kind of forced combat. I still think if the lead was He-Ro as originally intended. The show might have been better received?

This was surprising, I haven't seen MOTU at this Walmart aside from Moss Man in over a year!



Masterverse, TMNT, AND the Cartoon collection is hiding behind Trap Jaw, you can see the bottom of the cards peaking out.

Forgot to say that I spotted this at Target Friday.



$35 is a really good price, but I don't have any real interest. I'll get one if they hit clearance just to keep in the box.

Collecting Terroar and Lord Grasp from a toyshop at toy shop prices tomorrow £18 each. Still no sign of the turtles of greyskull here other than overpicing at online sites.

I swear banks dont like me paying Mattel, they must be owned by Hasbo.

3x Extendars for use as suits of armor in the halls of Eternia...not that it actually has halls.

also some little people, because I will begrudingly take the set with out chevy just to have some community product until Hasbro gets off their butts and does Joebra!!!!! figures.

I ordered two as I usually do just because one would have been $28 but two was $49. That works for me.

And I just got a shipping notice. I guess they aren't waiting around this time.

Emerje

Landsharks and windraiders £5 each, not including shipping here in the UK:

The Cringer set came in very early, of course I got the arrival notice a few days after I shipped my BBTS POL. Seems to happen every time...

definitely way too soon after extendor but hay, cause horses eat hay.

Origins NIGHTSTALKER Mattel Creations Exclusive figure goes on sale June 18th!

I really hope it's under $50. A little concerned about the "$$" price. Until now I never knew the original didn't come with helmet so now I have to decide if I give him the scale mail helmet or no helmet at all...

Emerje

Ebay mouth breathers are already asking £85 for nightstalker preorders which is what they try for creations figures so hopefully it will be same as stridor.

Not really paid attention if it's base has interactivity with snake mountain but it's cool that it is in purple and the fence is snake mountain style.

*smyths is getting the fan channel Reptillax too along with the reissues of webstor and orko with cartoon evil lyn looking to be in that 'wave' too. Not sure why our retail waves are odd like that with the exclusives. Also no idea why smyths is selling he-man figures with out stocking he-man or skeletor but hopefully it doesnt decrease their sales.

Total edit. I'm at least feeling a bit better about some of the lack luster turtles of greyskull figure designs now. Hopefully they get better availability over here.

My internal organs wanted to exit my body.

at least tmnt 2012 will still be kevin eastman and idw free (until that new special anniversary comic)

Why'd you post this in the MOTU topic? Bishop is like Baxter, every iteration wants to make him into something entirely different from the last. Wasn't he an Utrom once?

Emerje

Weird, that should have been in the tmnt section, I thought I posted it there :/

Nah, baxter been pretty much the same other than the fly thing that mutations managed to screw up too, I can imagine a buzz off repaint/mod might work for the 80s version of him in turtles of greyskull rather than the cyborg/frankensteins monster look though. Could be an easy custom but I'd like something a bit better than that for baxter.
