when Madam Razz & Glimmer get released, they're all yours.
I think Razz would be filmation. Let me think about Castaspella as I have been turned off MOTUC collecting recently..Quote:

I wish they'd given him cartoon eyes rather than toy ones - he looked better in the animated series than he did as a toy. Although he had a cool head in his Hook-Em Brakk incarnation.Quote:

So who would be interested at $25 a piece? Most would be opened toys with packaging (including mailer box).
I am sure there would be a couple I would be interested in.Quote:

You can't just stop collecting new figures and enjoy your current collection for what it is? I understand that the management of the line has been crap but from what I have seen there are some pretty cool toys that have been released. And it also seems like a waste of money.Quote:

The key word being: "Mismanagement". :o
If you're looking to offload them; I'd love to grab MOTUC Trap-Jaw & Snakeface if they're available dude? :)
Just got an email from Matty - Madame Razz is added to the lineup.
Well I have no Castle Grayskull, don't plan in getting one. The line is now too expensive given returned value as the toys have reduced quality. Most are just 'retools' of one another and too much of a hassle to order the toys.
So even if I like what I see, I don't think it's worth getting any more. What do I do with my collection? I am not a completist but I can't say it's complete to my satisfaction either and likely never will given all the high cost BS. On the other hand, my 200x collection most certainly is (although I don't have every character and no variants).
I am torn as typically I don't like selling toys but I can't develop my collection to my liking any more out of principal, expense and lack of returned satisfaction.
You don't have enough 'core' characters? If you have all the heavy hitters, the mainstream motu characters that could be considered as a satisfactory collection to my way of thinking
I was late to the game with regards to MOTUC so I'm really just focusing on selected characters mainly the ones I picked up and was given as a kid.
Now that I have CG I just want to have enough classic characters for display purposes.
Depends on your perspective but I really enjoy the line and what it can represent for me; updates of figs I had as a kid. Nothing more than that
Hey kup, if you have Man-at-arms, Beastman, or Mer-man available, I would be interested in buying them from you. Thank you.Quote:

i had selected quarterly shipping so is there nothing to worry about as far as credit card charges go or should i be concerend.
however i am a little worried i cant see anything when i log in ... Curiuos
I'm in the same boat - I suspect our subscriptions are fine, and the lack of a digital paper trail is just another brick in the Matty/Neitlich/DigitalRiver shithouse.Quote:

If I decide to not keep these do u want them kup?
Plenty of new revelations: http://news.mattycollector.com/blog/...n-in-new-york/
Club etheria mini subscription... Then more POP stuff in eternia...
What is sub chase figure anyway...
And rioblast in sept..
I believe it's a bit like Strawberry Roll-Up Hordak - Lookee and Kowl will randomly appear on the site, but they will also be available to buy Early-Access-style for people who don't like the 'fun' of checking Matty every hour.Quote:

How can I get one? Or two. If anyone orders some, slap one in for me will ya?;)
Annoying, as those are the sorts of things that would sell rather well in a shop...
