Same here. I splurged on a Masterverse figure from Best Buy with some rewards (got 40th He-Man!), but with all the OTHER stuff I buy...another scale isn't feasible. That said, I've LOVED a majority of the New Eternia redesigns. Sy-Klone and his battle mask are gorgeous and Leech turned out...
I’ve eyeballing a Grayskull since I’ve been getting back into MOTU. Origins is easily available…but so is the Netflix one. The Netflix Grayskull doesn’t come with a figure, but I really DO dig many of the design elements (the fusion of retro stone castle with sleek metal towers), plus it...
I WOULD laugh quite hardily if they seize his banking assets (the cash) and it turned out to be enough in them to pay the bound amount…but he just didn’t do it because of his usual asinine, stubborn, stupidity.
Humorously, if he, or his legal team, DOES play the “dementia” card…it would torpedo his chances at the presidency immediately (theoretically) and STILL wouldn’t stop the seizure of assets.
The long gestating sequel to cult hit Beetlejuice is finally hitting theaters this fall. Starring Michael Keaton, Jenna Ortega, Winona Ryder and Catherine O'Hara.
The 'Juice is loose!
Fine.
Then the digital coloring work was poorly done to give that impression. As is, a lot of the shading should have been straight black if you were trying to evoke the cheap animation of the 90s.
The Mattel Creations thing was...just for MC exclusives. Dug the behind the scenes of the stop motion Origins mini films.
But I have to say that Mattel's presentation needs a LOT of work. Which is sad since they are repeating the same mistakes Hasbro "grew out of" in their own Pulse...
More teases of Turtles of Grayskull before today's presentation, including promo shots from waves 3 and 4 and a look at Target's wave 4 deluxe 2-Bopsteady.

No promo pics of EVERYONE, but enough for a tease.
April has a nifty Sorceress vibe going on, while Casey...
Actually, it had a decent roll out (ha!), at over 3K screens. But I think what hurt it, generally, was lack of connection to Bumblebee (as in, BB wasn’t marketed as a “Transformers“ film), meaning the last major film to many would have been The Last Knight. It also didn’t help that films like...
The biggest thing to me is the Rogue/Magneto angle. Yes, it’s from the comics, but that has NEVER been touched upon in the series before. Rogue didn’t know Magneto when he was first introduced, and never referred to him as “Erik” in subsequent appearances. But then again, the cartoon has...
It’s Spaceballs: The Action Figures: The Auction!

While the Mattel Creations preview isn’t until Thursday (11:10 am PST), they HAVE gone onto Instagram and shared a few teases from the assorted product lines, including:
Masterverse Emperor Hordak and Snake Sorceress Teela
Cartoon Collection Evil-Lyn and Adam (with barely viewable tease of...
I recall them not being THAT impressive. Like, $15-odd for some of the deluxe figures they had (saw Clamp Champ and Battle Armor He-Man), $20-ish for the vehicle assortments. Cheaper than full price...but not overly impressive for an outlet type deal. Not when you have Marvel Legends or Star...
There was!
But considering the packs change (Breakdown was originally listed with a Knockout, IIRC), it is possible that Amazon opted to only carry two packs this year. Or, like last year, the theme will be a staggered release and the Bludgeon/Ruckus pack will be released later.
Just have to...
All that said, I still think Origins lost the biggest momentum when the price hit $18-20. With Masterverse (LITERALLY!) a couple dollars more (21-24)?
It’s the same situation Star Wars is seeing with Black and TVC- you have two lines, both basically targeting the same (shrinking) demographic...
Origins is…in a weird spot right now. Mattel has committing to “finishing the Vintage line” through Mattel Creations. Right now, the crux of their mass retail offerings are centered on 3 areas: ”Fan Favorites” (reissues), Cartoon Collection, and Turtles of Grayskull.
We’ll see what the...
