How dare you not buy ten subs you are worse than Hitler, why don't you just give up drinking coffee so you can afford $500 worth of He-Man toys even if you just want one or two of them. It's all or nothing, don't you know that 'cherry pickers' are to be spat at for not being true fans??

Judging from bad press I've read and disgruntled commentary from Emiliano Santalucia's facebook page I cant see posts like that staying up on the org.
Hope something can be sorted out so MOTU can be simply available to and enjoyed by everyone. This Classics stuff has been problematic from the start.

Mattel have been consistent in stating MOTU will not be a kids in-store toyline again until there is a movie, which they can't get off the ground.

Oh wow. To be fair I would dig a Saurod and Blade figure. Don't want to have to pay $500 for them (or for the chance of getting them, only a few figures from the 2013 sub have been revealed). If Mr Saurod wants a Saurod he'll have to give Mattel $500 and hope that a Saurod is in the 2013 line. I want more begging videos. "Hi, you might remember me as GWILDOR from the 1987 movie" "Hi, I'm Dolph Lundgren" "Hi, you might remember me as the voice of Icer"

Yesterday I discovered that the musician guy in the He-Man film was none other than Tom Paris from Voyager! I never realised because he didn't just stand there going the whole film. Why isn't MOTU Classics released to speciality shops like all the DC Direct figures and Doctor Who Classics figures. I'm sure they make much less of those! Frankly if they were easier to get hold of (especially in the UK!) I'd buy the hell out of them!

That would involve a retail distribution chain, which involves a lot more logistics than Mattell want to get into. My impression is that they want to be in a situation of simply bringing the finished toy in one door from the factory and then simply shipping it out the other to the customer. Hence their disappointment in the Windraider for not selling out immediately. That's just my reading of it though. Karl

Given the history of attempts to get another Masters of the Universe film off the ground I am inclined to wait until there is actually principal photography before I believe it.

Just been on the Org. Much knickers are being twisted yet many fans have been waiting until today, August 1st (payday for some folk) before ordering so there may be a percentage increase today! What will happen next on THE DEATH OF HE-MAN? Stay tuned!

Just saw that*. Tosspots. They seem to think it's a big deal to ship internationally and that it is really hard to do. No, no it isn't. Many, many, many online companies manage it. He tells international fans to go get a pen-pal???!!!! From one of the biggest toy companies in the world? Really??? FUCK RIGHT OFF!!! What will happen next on THE DEATH OF HE-MAN? -Ralph *Matty's 4 begging video. If they could run their business probably, such videos would not be needed.

I don't get it though. They talk about international shipping being difficult because of fees etc, but they don't deliver it, they pay DHL to do that! It's not rocket science! If only Mattel were some sort of large multi-billion company or something
