Reminder: Masters of the Universe Classics Evil-Lyn, Hordak, Weapons Pak, and More on Sale April 19

I’m glad I’ve got a Club Eternia subscription, because I don’t want to be fighting the horde (no pun intended) to pick up an Evil-Lyn on Monday. This may also be the first time in a long time that I’m not logging onto MattyCollector.com to order an extra item – I have Hordak from when he was first released, and am not collecting the Dark Knight or 12-inch Ghostbuster figures.

The recolored gear for Stratos is what is nagging me to buy the Weapons Pak, but when I think about the stack of extra accessories I already have for MOTUC, I will probably pass.

Good luck with your order – use the Bundle page to make it easier!

Left on the Shelves: Hasbro Iron Man 2, Jazwares Sonic the Hedgehog, and Mattel The Dark Knight Harvey Dent

When I win the lottery, I’ll buy every action figure I want. For now, these ones were Left on the Shelves.

In this edition, more Hasbro Iron Man 2 figures, Jazwares Sonic the Hedgehog, and Mattel The Dark Knight Harvey Dent.

Hasbro Iron Man 2

If you haven’t seen the lastest trailers and clips from Iron Man, you won’t understand why they call the Mark V armor the “suitcase armor” – and while it’s awesome on the big screen, I just couldn’t bring myself to buy another 3.75-inch Iron Man while I still have a pile of unopened Iron Men on the shelves at home.

Iron Starch and the Iron Man and War Machine versions of the Mighty Muggs were a little harder to resist, because cute and heavy armor are such a potent combination.

Mattel San Diego Comic-Con Exclusives – Official Details and Pics

Mater_PkgPolly_pkg1

Mattel has released the official descriptions and pictures of their San Diego Comic-Con Exclusives that they announced on Attack of the Show (part 1 | part 2). They promised more reveals, and they came through with previously unannounced exclusives for Cars and Justice League Polly Pockets.

I’m psyched about face-hugger Starros for my DC Universe Classics Justice League, but is it weird that I’m excited about the dentist’s chair that comes with Mo-Larr? 🙂

Mattel Ghostbusters, Toy Story, WWE, and Avatar Exclusives Announced on Attack of the Show

Attack of the Show aired part two of Blair Butler’s visit with Mattel’s Toy Guru, aka Scott Neitlich, where they covered the remaining exclusives for San Diego Comic-Con. We had guessed at some of these looking at snapshots of the video clips from the first reveal, but we hadn’t seen the Toy Story exclusive before tonight. Without further ado, here’s what was shown:

  • The Real Ghostbusters Retro-Action Heroes Peter Venkman – Mattel kicks off an extension to the Ghostbusters license with Mego-styled figures from the popular animated series. For SDCC, Venkman comes in his movie colors, as the Real Ghostbusters appeared in the episode, “Citizen Ghost.”
  • Toy Story 3 Lots-O’-Huggin’ Bear – this new Toy Story character, voiced by Ned Beatty in the upcoming third movie in the Toy Story series, will only be available as an SDCC and MattyCollector.com exclusive. The movie opens June 18, so Lots-O should have lots of companions on shelves waiting for him to join. He’ll apparently come with a shortcake scent.
  • WWE Wrestlemania XV Undertaker – this exclusive looks like an Entrance Great, with the Undertaker appearing in his Ministry of Darkness costume from Wrestlemania XV when he faced the Big Boss Man in the “Hell in a Cell” cage match. If it’s an Entrance Great, it will come with a base and sound chip that plays his entrance music. This version of the Undertaker will only be available as an SDCC and MattyCollector.com exclusive.
  • Avatar “Final Battle” Jake Sully vs. Colonel Quaritch – Jake gets a new head, the AMP gets some battle-damage, and they all get new accessories. A full diorama in package will make you think twice about opening it.

Toy Guru promises even more reveals, so check back again tomorrow.
