Soapbox Sunday: How Much is Digital River to Blame for Mattycollector Fallout?

Mattycollector

Get ready for a little rant – I just had another bad Mattycollector experience. This past Friday was Early Access. Normally it’s no big deal, offering the figures we’ve already subscribed for and customer service stock on a couple of other figures. But this time it was for some of Mattel’s San Diego Comic-Con exclusives.

SDCC 2013: Masters of the Universe Classics Castle Grayskull – New and Improved

Castle Grayskull 1 Castle Grayskull 2 Castle Grayskull 3

I spoke with Toy Guru about the changes that have been made to the Masters of the Universe Classics Castle Grayskull. One thing he clarified right off the bat was the “Not Final” sign on the Castle. Some folks took it to mean that structural changes could still be made, but Toy Guru made it clear that at this point, further tweaks are really not possible.
