DC Universe Classics Elongated Man and Dr. Manhattan Headline Limited MattyCollector Sale on 3/15

March Madness takes on a whole new meaning for Masters of the Universe Classics collectors with MattyCollector’s sale this month. First, Fang Man, the Club Eternia figure for March, is available only to subscribers – so for those of you cherry pickers who were looking forward to one of the big hitters from Filmation, you are out of luck.

Early Access this month proved to be a bit of a rage-generator for some as well, with Strobo selling out within a couple of minutes. I am guessing this will be hailed as a success for Mattel, who also sold all of their stock of Mekaneck and WWE Miss Elizabeths. What does that leave for sales day? MOTUC Keldor (remaining customer service stock), DC Universe Classics Elongated Man, Watchmen’s Dr. Manhattan, and WWE Shawn Michaels. Although what you are looking for may already be sold out, here’s the bundle page for the March MattyCollector sale.

Poll: Where Do You Stand on the Masters of the Universe Classics Castle Grayskull?

With the final pre-order window coming to a close on Monday, I’d like to take a pulse check on where you stand on Castle Grayskull – and no, that’s not a flimsy attempt at escape ledge humor. Up until Toy Fair, we had seen drawings, foam mockups, and teasers – now that the first painted prototype has been shown, what’s the verdict? Has seeing the Castle changed your mind one way or the other?

Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics Jitsu Photo Feature by Matthew K

The Fwoosh’s Matthew K was kind enough to let me post his Masters of the Universe Classics feature for Jitsu (my favorite Masters character, if you somehow did not know that :)) right here on AFP. As always, Matt has created some absolutely beautiful pictures – so much better than I would be able to do myself. Jitsu deserves it! Thanks so much, Matt!

Let’s take a look at February’s Masters of the Universe Classics figure – Jitsu!

Last Chance to Pre-Order Masters of the Universe Classics Castle Grayskull and Buy the Holiday Gift Paks

Maybe you weren’t ready to make the commitment back when the outcome was uncertain. But Castle Grayskull *is* getting made, and the pre-orders close out Friday morning at 9AM PST. It’s a new year, so can you commit now? Worry not, if you still can’t pull the trigger on Castle Grayskull now, you’ll get the chance late in the year when it actually is available for sale – that is, if our good friend Logistics doesn’t have anything to say about it.

All-new Castle Grayskull to be released in 2013 as long as we hit our minimum production goal.

If you do pre-order now, though, you’ll save $50 or more (day of sales were said to be at least $300), you’ll get an awesome poster, and you’ll also get to vote on who appears in the Rudy Obrero artwork for the packaging. Did I mention the $50?

Also closing out at the same time tomorrow – the MOTUC and Ghostbusters Holiday Gift Paks comprised of stuff that has been languishing in the Digital River warehouse. If you don’t buy them now, next stop, Walmart?

Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics Snake Men – the Turning of Man-At-Arms

My “staging area” (AKA the unruly pile of unopened toys that my wife wants to burn) was getting too unruly for even me being able to stand it, so I did some opening of a few Masters of the Universe Classics figures that were stranded due to lack of shelf space allocated to MOTUC. The pile included Kobra Khan, Rattlor, and the Snake Men 2-pack, and I was a little surprised to find that I could have an entire cube in my display devoted to the faction – it didn’t seem too long ago that I only had King Hiss, and he had been stranded with Hordak and the Evil Horde.
