The sad part is, from reading a lot of forums and talking to people about it last weekend, it seems Castle Grayskull may not have the "super-awesome" appeal that Scott and Co would have anticipated. Unfortunately, I feel Matty has already shot themselves in the foot with constant QC issues, and a lot of people seems unwilling to part with $200 (plus God knows how much in shipping) for an unseen design that may, or may not, be aesthetically desirable much less may, or may not, have design or QC flaws.
Personally, I'm willing to take a chance, but I can certainly see why most people I've discussed this with will not. I wonder if it will get made at all tbh. Scott seems to have indicated that they need to sell as many pre-orders as 2013 Subs. I remember there was one person on the Org who bought a Sub for himself for every one Sub someone else bought (capped at 30). Is this guy gonna buy 30 CG's at over $200 a pop? Plus, a lot of Subbers have already indicated they may not even buy one. Even Poe Ghostal (toy reviewer and MOTUC collector) is second-guessing himself. It may just be too much for people to afford - and the ongoing service and design problems just add to people's hesitance.

, but man... Snake Face's original 80s toy is an image burned into my memory equal to Skeletor, Hordak & He-Man so to own a modern interpretation would be just so friggin' awesome!
