AFP Ask Matty Round-Up for 11/15/10

We thought maybe we had been stood up by the Mattel team, but they eventually showed up tonight with the answers for the latest round of Q&A. Thanks to Toy Guru and the team at Mattel!

1. We’ve seen what looks like a factory-produced Green Lantern Classics Abin Sur figure with double-jointed elbows and Black Hand with double-jointed elbows and knees. Does this mean that you’re taking opportunities to introduce figures with double-jointed articulation when you have the opportunity to add new tooling? Or was this a production error?

Reminder: Masters of the Universe Classics Grizzlor, Grayskull, and More On Sale 11/15

It’s been a couple of months since I had to brave the Mattycollector.com site, but this month I’ll have to. I’ve got Grizzlor on the way as part of my Club Eternia subscription, but I must have King Grayskull.

I’ll say that I like the upcoming deco better than the original King Grayskulls from SDCC two years ago, but I’m sure the guys I was with who did pick him up will want me to admit that I made a mistake passing on him back then. I’m sure they’re right.

Also on sale – a new Weapons Pak, Ghostbusters Peter Venkman, and the JLU Parademon 2-pack. It’ll be a busy day, I’m sure.

Here’s the bundle page for your ordering convenience. Happy shopping!

The release of the new deco Masters of the Universe Classics King Grayskull on MattyCollector.com is coming up fast, Monday, October November 15th to be exact! And with that in mind, I thought I’d do a quick little retrospective of the original King Grayskull figures that were sold at SDCC 2008 which signalled official start of Mattel’s fan favorite line, Masters of the Universe Classics.
