Tri-Klops may be the big item for me, but there’s a whole mess of stuff going up tomorrow, so be ready for some red screens of death.
Big sale on Monday! MOTUC Tri-Klops, Infinite Heroes Crisis 4 pack, JLU Shazam pack, plus a few retail Batman Brave and the Bold and Dark Knight items! Check out MattyCollector.com at 12 noon eastern Aug 17th!
I’m not exactly sure which Brave and the Bold and Dark Knight products are going up tomorrow, but posted pics of all that’s currently up there. Matty will also have a 1:24 die cast Lightning McQueen, so it could get a little crazy, with both action figure and Hot Wheels collectors converging on the site.
Mattel also posted a round-up of sorts of the latest Ask Matty sessions (AFP’s latest Ask Matty Round-Up was posted yesterday). They touch on a lot of sore spots, for example, $20 Dark Knight Movie Masters, bonus figures not in Club Eternia, and Gleek. Not sure if the explanations will soothe the folks who are raging over them, but at least Mattel understands that some people are upset. And a new hurt for folks on the east coast – Mattel won’t be at New York Comic-Con next year. That’s not surprising, since it’s in October, during the prime selling season for big box retailers.
The deadline for ordering Club Eternia, the 2010 subscription plan for Masters of the Universe Classics, is at NOON EST on Friday. So if you’ve got the tendency to sleep in on Friday mornings, it might be best to get your last minute orders in on Thursday.
Honestly, I’m still on the fence for the subscription. Mattel and the Four Horsemen have such a big share of my action figure expenditures that every month I’ll be hitting up Mattycollector anyways. So if there’s something else I’m getting besides Wun-Dar and the posters, I can’t figure it out. I need to decide whether Wun-Dar is worth what I’ll be paying in extra shipping and handling next year for my Matty purchases not covered by the subscription. While I like the subscription model, I would much rather have a pre-ordering option by figure.

It’s that time of year again! Entertainment Earth is holding one of it’s big inventory clearance sales, and that includes action figures.
They’re saying it’s up to 80% off – most of the things I am interested are between 30 – 50% off. That includes DC Universe Classics, Halo, and GI Joes.
For example, at the Mattel DC Panel at San Diego Comic-Con, a very upset fan was lamenting the lack of availability of Killer Moth. Well, upset fan, Killer Moth is on sale right now for $8.80! Buy him now! No more tears!
With sales like these, things sell out quickly, so don’t procrastinate!
