Here’s What to Expect from Mattycollector Cyber Monday Sale Today

I am still trying to wrap my head around why this eight day sale is called Cyber Monday, but I probably don’t have the mental faculties required to comprehend it. But if you’re heading over to Mattycollector for it, here’s what you can expect to find. When I checked late last night in Early Access, I found only one item had sold out – that was the Masters of the Universe Classics Granymyr for $68 (normally $85). For a lot of folks, that discount would have amounted to free shipping, because that sucker is heavy. Congrats to the Early Access folks who picked him up.

Some of the remaining deals jumped out at me. The Eternian Palace Guards 2-pack didn’t show up for me when I looked in the morning, but they’re there at the top of the page now – and for $27, half off the regular (bumped up) cost of $54. Also half off, and an exceptionally good deal is Battleground Teela – just $10. If you don’t have her, get her!

For those of you who have been holding out for San Diego Comic-Con exclusives – all of the action figure exclusives (except for Monster High, if you count those) are available and on sale. Rokkon and Stonedar, Batusi Batman, big-hooded Captain Marvel, Man of Steel, and even the mini He-Man and Skeletor figures are there. This year I skipped on all of them, except for the MOTU mini-figures, and even on sale I’m probably letting them go. How about you guys? What’s on your list for Matty Cyber Monday?

Weekend Toy Run: Mattel Shop 20% Off plus Free Shipping This Weekend Only

A couple of weeks ago, the Mattel Shop had a $20 or $50 off sale, but only if you spent $100 or $200. This time around it’s a bit easier – just spend over $25 and you’ll get 20% off and free shipping as part of the extended “Blue Friday” sale they kicked off yesterday.

The Superman™ Movie Masters® Bundle for $79.95 is still a great deal, for five figures. You can also get the Man of Steel figures individually, except for Faora. There’s also Batman (including Batman, Riddler, and Penguin from the Classic TV Series), DC Comics and DC Universe (why these two are separate, I don’t know), and WWE categories to search through.

In total, there’s close to 140 action figures and accessories included in the sale, so qualifying for the discount should be easy. Happy shopping!

Weekend Toy Run: Square Enix Play Arts Kai Catwoman and Zod On Sale at Entertainment Earth

Whoops – meant to post this earlier today, because Entertainment Earth is offering 40% off selected Play Arts Kai figures from Square Enix. It’s part of their 38 days, 38 deals promotion that’s underway and ending November 26. But each deal ends only lasts a day, so be quick if any of these are on your want list.

Superman Man of Steel General Zod Play Arts Kai Figure – $47.99 (40% off plus Free Shipping)

I’ve got the Catwoman and paid full price – this is a bargain on an excellent figure. EE also has the Dead Space 3 Isaac Clarke and the Metal Gear Solid 2 Solidus Snake on sale. Happy shopping!

Weekend Toy Run: Mattel Shop $20 or $50 Off Sale plus Free Shipping This Weekend Only

Sure, you have to spend $100 to get $20 off, or $200 to get $50 off, but Mattel Shop’s sale this weekend might not be that hard to get if you’re a fan of Mattel’s DC and WWE product lines. Here’s some ideas that will help get your there:

Superman™ Movie Masters® Bundle – $79.95 – Get Superman, Jor-El, Faora, and two versions of Zod all in one shot, and cheaper than you’d be able to get them for individually. No, I still haven’t seen Man of Steel yet. Should I? And if I do, will I want this bundle?
BATMAN POWER ATTACK™ TOTAL DESTRUCTION™ BATMOBILE® – $21.99 (on sale) – There’s nothing but rave reviews for this Batmobile, and I’ve heard that you could fit a DC Universe Classics Batman in there if you’ve got one with a cloth cape. This Batmobile would be a great repaint project, but my wife is still eyeballing me about the Batman Brave & the Bold Proto Bat-Bots I bought to repaint but still haven’t.
DC Comics Unlimited DARKSEID Figure – $15.99 – I know a lot of folks hated the proportions of this figure in the promo pics – me too, because I still haven’t bought him. But now he might not be a bad cart-filler to get that discount. Mattel Shop actually has a few of the DC Unlimited figures in stock, including Aquaman.
WWE® Elite Collection Dolph Ziggler™ Figure – $12.25 (on sale) – You know you’re old when the last wrestling you really watched was when the WWE was still the WWF, but I still found that Dolph Ziggler and the Miz were pretty entertaining when they hosted the Mattel WWE panel at San Diego Comic-Con this year. A good portion of the WWE Elite figures Mattel Shop has in stock are on sale, and they also have Hornswoggle on sale for $7.50.

Added bonus – if you hit either threshold, you also qualify for free shipping, since that clicks in when you put $25 in your cart. And if you’re still having trouble getting there – there’s always Barbie or Monster High for those female collectors in your life. Ok, or for you too – I won’t tell!
