Mattel Reveals Masters of the Universe Classics Octavia Packaged Pics and Bio

Masters of the Universe Classics has been going a little out of my depth with some of the more obscure Filmation and Princess of Power characters, so Octavia didn’t float my boat at first. Seeing her in package with her extra limbs removed is somehow a little more appealing to me now.

Octavia revealed!

Hey MOTUC fans!

Mattel to Open 2014 Subscriptions for Club Eternia and Club Infinite Earths Early – 6/17 to 8/19

The second Mattel item is a bit of a head scratcher. People have been asking for the subscription window for the Matty subs to be open longer – presumably, it’s tough to commit to a year’s worth of figures only knowing a quarter’s worth of them. In response, Mattel has extended the window – but on the front end, before any information at all on the figures will be known. Thanks for that! 🙂

In addition, at this point there’s only two subs on the table – Club Eternia for Masters of the Universe Classics, and Club Infinite Earths for DC Universe Classics. There’s no extension to Club Black Freighter for Watchmen or Club Filmation, both of which went live this year without any thermometer drama. But I don’t think we should take this as final on what will be available – who knows what surprises Mattel has up their sleeves for San Diego Comic-Con?

Toy Fans,

As you probably know, we usually open subscriptions right after our Mattypalooza fan panel at San Diego Comic-Con and they stay open for about a month. Over the years, many of you have asked us to run the subscriptions longer so for 2014, we’re starting the sale early so everyone has a chance to get theirs when it’s convenient for them!

Subscriptions will be available for Masters of the Universe® Classics Club Eternia® and DC Universe Club Infinite Earths. When you sign up on 6/17, you’ll get all the subscription details except the names of the club-exclusive figure and first-quarter figures for each club. As always, those will be revealed at Mattypalooza Fan Panel at SDCC. (If you’re wondering why we don’t wait to open the subs until after the fan panel and leave the subscriptions open past August, it’s because we need final numbers by 8/19 to set production quotas and hit a January 2014 release date.)

Here are the dates you need to know:

2014 Subscriptions – Club Eternia® & Club Infinite Earths

Availability Opens: Monday 6/17 9am PT
Club-Exclusive Figures Announced: Mattypalooza Fan Panel at SDCC
Availability Closes: Monday 8/19 11:59pm PT

Things From Another World’s Spring Sale Includes 258 Toys at 40% Off

Justice League Parademon Action Figure Marvel Select Sabertooth Action Figure SDCC 2012 Exclusive Avengers vs. X-Men Minimates Set Marvel Legends Universe Colossus Action Figure DC Heroes Wave 17 - Orange Lantern Lex Luthor Action Figure

It’s the Spring Sale at Things From Another World, and that means that selected toys (and comics, graphic novels, statues, and more) are on sale for 40% off. There’s a bunch of toys on sale, including action figures from DC Collectibles, Diamond Select Toys, Hasbro, and Mattel. Here’s a few of them:

BigBadToyStore to Close Out MattyCollector.com DC Universe Exclusives

Here’s an interesting tidbit from BBTS – they are closing out some MattyCollector.com DC exclusives, including the DC Universe Classics Swamp Thing, which was Mattel’s San Diego Comic-Con DC exclusive in 2011. And get this – Swamp Thing is listed at BBTS for pre-order at $15.99, while he was $30 when sold at the show and later on MattyCollector.com. Of course, don’t expect the Un-Men with him, as they were an exclusive pack-in for the figures sold at SDCC.

I haven’t seen any news on this from Mattel or from any other retailers (granted I didn’t look that hard so let me know if I missed something), so at this point I’m assuming this is a BigBadToyStore deal direct with Mattel to clear out the warehouse of these DC items.

MATTY COLLECTOR CLOSEOUT

Mattel is releasing a number of items at closeout prices. These include the JLU Three-Pack – Toyman, Firefly, Dr. Destiny at $21.99, the JLU Three-Pack – Vandal Savage, Batman, Future Superman at $11.99, the Justice League Unlimited 7-Pack with Gypsy, Dr. Mid-Night and more at $17.99, the DC Universe Swamp Thing at $15.99, the Retro Action DC Super Heroes Sinestro at $9.99 and the JLU Justice Guild Four-Pack at $13.99.
