Ozmasters, The MOTU General Discussion Thread.

Recently I have been thinking of selling much of my MOTUC collection given that I am not motivated to collect any more. Just soured on that franchise given all the BS surrounding it. I may go back to collecting if it ever gets 'rebooted' with more competent people and Mattel stops being such an ahole to fans.

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.

On a side not is modulok a sub figure or additional purchase I'm a little out of the loop.

Modulak is the 1st quarter beast/large sub figure

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.

When I look at my MOTUC collection and my 200x. 200x is infinitely more appealing to me both in style and due to fiction.

So you spent a not-insignificant amount of money on a bunch of toys that you don't really like?

Sorry to hear Kup, as I know MOTU is a franchise you love but I know you're one of a great many who've become incredibly disenfranchised with the brand - It's rather sad actually as Mattel have shown themselves to be incredibly corporate with an IP who's fanbase is as passionate as, and should be on an equal level to, that of Transformers.

The key word being: "Mismanagement".

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.
