Toy Fair 2015: Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics [Update – Club 200X Announcement]

Toy Fair 2015 Mattel Masters of the Universe Classics (1 of 35)

It’s a bit difficult for me to get amped up for Masters of the Universe Classics. During the most recent subscription drive, the 2015 Club Eternia was heavily marketed as the last year for Four Horsemen figures – “Hey folks – this toy line has 12 months left to live…”

At the Mattycollector “nerd herd” this morning, at least the new guys brought in to manage the collector lines didn’t hit us with that downer. They also didn’t say a lot about what’s coming in the line. I guess that’s what these pictures are for.

Toy Fair 2015: Mattel Sssqueezes in One More Teaser

Masters of the Universe Classics Sssqueeze

Mattel’s “nerd herd” isn’t until early Sunday morning, but they’ve still managed to squeeze in one more Masters of the Universe Classics tease for the Mattycollector fans. Sssqueeze looks to be super bendy.

You’d think Mattel would be more sensitive to the plight of the West Coast Toy Fair attendees. I blame them for horrible morning puns.

Toy Fair 2015: Did Mattel Just Tease Masters of the Universe Classics Ceratus?

King Ceratus (MOTU 200X)

Mattel is holding their “nerd herd” this Sunday at Toy Fair, and to build a little excitement they’ve just revealed a teaser image. Sure looks like Ceratus’ tail to me.

Ceratus was introduced in the 200X MOTU cartoon as Whiplash’s older brother and leader of the Caligar. If this tease indeed turns out to be Ceratus, he’ll joined King Randor, King Carnivus, and Lord Dactus as members of the Eternian Council represented in Masters of the Universe Classics.

Mattycollector February Sale

Looks like just one item will be up for Early Access for Mattycollector’s February sale (opening tomorrow at 8AM PST) – the glow-in-the-dark Masters of the Universe Classics Spirit of Grayskull. The quarterly 2-pack and Ninja Warrior join the sale during All Access on Monday.

I’m looking forward to Ninjor, but I switched to the quarterly plan this year, so I’ll be waiting until March for him and the Snake-themed pair.

Lonely Lizard Man Makes for a Bleak Mattycollector January Sale

Mattycollector Sale January 2015

November and December were blowout months of a sort at Mattycollector, with DC Universe Classics going on closeout and the final figures, Doomsday and Damien Wayne Robin going on sale. In comparison, this month looks drastically different, with a single new figure up for grabs.

Masters of the Universe Classics fans may get a kick out of Lizard Man, who probably would have ended up in a Club Filmation sub if that had continued. But not even consolation prize Extendar can bring this month’s sale out of the post-holiday funk. Early Access opens tomorrow at 8AM PST, and All Access for January opens up at 9AM PST on Friday.
