Masters of the Universe Classics Roboto and Zodac on Sale 10/15

Hey, it’s a quiet month for Matty in October, with just two Masters of the Universe Classics items on sale. Roboto may be a big draw, but it was a surprise that Zodac is not a reissue – sounds like Mattel is clearing out remaining stock that was held over from the original sale.

But don’t forget next week’s sale (see the release schedule through November.) With Gygor as the oversized quarterly figure, it might be tough.

10/15 SALE: MOTUC Roboto® and Zodac®

Toy Fans,

If you’re a MOTUC fan, then you’re gonna dig our October 15th sale because we’ve got two figures just for you!

Roboto® — The October Club Eternia™ Monthly Figure was inspired by the classic ‘80s toy, so he’s got gears that work and three arm attachments.

Zodac® — The man in charge of keeping peace in the universe returns once again. Note: This is limited stock from Customer Service, so it won’t have the “The Original” burst on the box.

The sale starts here at MattyCollector.com on Friday, October 15th at 9 a.m. Pacific (12 noon Eastern).
