Mattel Masters of the Universe bonus figures NOT included in the “Club Eternia” subscriptions!

from Mattycollector:

A lot of fans have asked this question and their is a very simple answer. The bonus figures are our insurance policy that at least one new figure will be available each month. In the toy industry, issues arise all the time which delay product. For example, Faker was supposed to be the Feb bonus figure but because Mer-Man ran late he was slotted in as a standard figure. (for those keeping score at home, this also meant every other 2009 figure was bumped up a month from the intended release date…).

So for 2010’s Club Eternia program, the bonus figures, large scale beasts and re-issues will not be part of the subscription in order to have a back up in case anything gets delayed. In time, after we have another year under our belts and can better judge sales over an extended period of time, we can look at the possibility of adding an “all in” option. But for now, please bear with us as we do all in our power to make sure at least one new figure is available each month with some months having a nice bonus figure as well!

And each subscription will get the exclusive Wun-Dar figure, a new map of Eternia in poster size and a few other surprises throughout the year. It looks like 2010 will be a great time to be a He-Fan!

Good journey,

Matty

Mattel Mattycollector Shipping for 2010 Masters of the Universe Classics Info

from Mattycollector.com:

Direct info on why shipping cannot be combined on 2010 MOTU subscriptions
Share

We know a lot of fans are still asking about combining shipping on bonus figures and subscription orders. For this, we went right to our friends at Digitial River for an answer:

“Unfortunately this functionality does not exist because the purchases are from two different transactions. Each transaction is sent individually to the warehouse, which has a unique fulfillment request sent through an integration from Digital River to the DCL warehouse. There is no way to combine separate transactions into one fulfillment request. Furthermore, shipping rates are billed based on weight. There isn’t a way to view a previous transaction, extract the weight from that transaction, add it to the second transaction, and recalculate the shipping cost for the total weight.”

-We’ve been through every possible scenario and unfortunately there just is not a way to work this for 2010. We will do our best to get ahead for 2011 and possibly add the “bonus” figures into the 2011 subscription, but for this first full year in 2010, the scubscription will only include the figures of the month.

We’ll keep working on things to make this the best buying experience possible. I think we’ve made leaps and bounds since we launched last summer and the site crashed when you tried to make a purchase! We can’t solve every issue overnight, but we are commited to working with the fans and doing all we can to make imporvements as we go along! One step at a time for better toys and happier fans!

Mattel at SDCC 2009, He-Man, Battle Cat and a rant…

Dec 2008 012

Let me start off by saying that I do really enjoy the newest iteration of the He-Man toy line.  Sadly, I do not own a single figure from the series.

I thought attending San Diego Comic-Con 2009 would be my first shot at a figure.  He-Ro was supposed to be readily available to attendees.  I walked up to the Mattel booth on Thursday morning and saw that He-Man and Beast Man were both also available (Skeletor was sold out).

Unfortunately, the Mattel booth was all but closed to anyone who did not attend pre-view night (Wed from 6pm-9pm) and got a ticket during those short hours.   Making the problem worse was the 6 per item limit.  I would see people leaving the booth with so many bags they could not carry them.  Most dropped the bags nearby and used their baby stroller to cart the items away.  Many people brought children so they could amass more items than if they were alone.   Mattel staff had no idea WTF was going on, no one with a red Mattel shirt could answer anyone’s questions about the booth, the queue or tickets.

Hasbro ran things properly (as best as possible for an in-demand company, but not as good as Hallmark did).  Tickets with time slots were handed out in a low traffic area away from the booth.  Low minimums (3-4 per item) were set.  Items were available for purchase.  Waiting in line was reasonable (about an hour).  Booth was well staffed, fast and courteous.

Shame on Mattel for running this so poorly.  I’m sure you made loads of money from the tons you sold to the few who got a chance.  I’ll stick to classic 80’s He-Man.

SDCC 2009 Coverage: Lining Up, Mattel, and Hasbro

Lines

this is a view of the convention center from the hotel room. i zoomed in to show the massive line for getting your entry badge. entrance C was where you actually went into the building to access the badge pickup area. however, the line started by entrance A. not too bad right, from the looks of the image above? it was bad. what ya can’t see here was that the line wrapped around the back of the building, then around the marina! got a nice tour of that and the bay. we were in that line for about two hours. if you don’t like crowds or standing in line, then the San Diego Comic Con is not for you. it’s the biggest convention of its kind, and only happens once a year. so folks from all over converge for the the five day event.

you are constantly wading thru the crowds and standing in this line or that line. lining up for something was the recurring theme the last two days. lining up to get my badge, lining up to get into the exhibit hall, lining up to leave, lining up to cross the street, lining up to buy things, etc. some places forced you to line up for a ticket that’s needed for lining up to by things. and i didn’t line up for everything. there were games to be played, trailers to watch, panels to attend, etc. it’s pretty hard to see/do all the things you would want to if you’re not there for multiple days. so much time was spent standing in line.

Masters of the Universe toys by Mattel

what kinds of things do people line up for? free stuff, opportunities to try new games, buying comic books, etc. and the toys, of course. here are three Masters of the Universe action figures by Mattel, including He-Man, Skeletor, and Beast Man.

Wonder Twins by Mattel

also by Mattel are are teenage alien superheroes,  Zan and Jayna, the Wonder Twins from the DC Universe. this boxed set will be sold in stores, but the SDCC exclusive set comes with their companion, a space monkey named Gleek.

25th Anniversary Soundwave

Hasbro also made their presence known, with exclusives such as this 25th Anniversary Soundwave boxed set. the Transformers Generation 1 Decepticon comes with four of the cassette tape companions, Lazerbeak, Buzzsaw, Ratbat, and Ravage. much to my chagrin, they included the two birds, Lazerbeak and Buzzsaw (3 flyers if you count Ratbat), but left out Rumble and Frenzy. either one of those would have been nice. still, Soundwave is a fan favorite, and certainly one of mine as well.

Cap Am

this black and white Captain America exclusive is a pretty awesome looking figure. and it comes in a cool sketch cover box.

Wolverine Mighty Mugg

another Hasbro exclusive was this Wolverine Mighty Mugg. it’s based on the Wolverine/Logan from the movies. and the Mugg features retractable claws. “SNIKT!”

Optimus Prime Mighty Mugg

this Optimus Prime Mighty Mugg features a metallic paint job. it’s bad@$$, so “roll out” and pick this one up!

Mattel SDCC 2009 Special Sculpting Event Exclusive Details

from Mattycollector.com:

“Mike Berling and Saun Omos from Mattel’s sculpting team will be at our booth creating a live brand new statue sculpt at SDCC. They tell me they are going to take a stab at a stylized He-Man sculpt of their own creation. This will not be a Classic or a 200X figure, but a one-off artistic interpretation of the defender of Eternia, created live at the show right before fan’s eyes!

Then, on Friday we’ll run their new sculpt up to Mattel in El Segundo and use our rapid prototype machines to make a handful of one-off casts to raffle off on Saturday! Ain’t that cool?

So come on down to see just how the Mattel sculpting process works! Raffle tickets will be given out throughout the show.

Sculpting demos will be as follows:
Thurs: 11-1pm, 3-5pm
Fri: 10-11am, 4-6pm”

Mattel MOTU Classics 2010 Fan Club “the Eternia Fan Club” details revealed!

from Mattycollector.com:
“…the MOTU 2010 Subscription, or the Eternia Fan Club(tm) will go on sale on MattyCollector.com at 4:00 pm on Wednesday night. It will run for 3 weeks. The 2010 subscription will include the Jan. through Dec. 2010 figures. You will be charged each month and figures will ship each month. There will not be a “ship them all in Dec.” option anymore. (due to very limited interest in this option in 2009). The subscription will not include bonus figures, reissues, or large scale beasts (like Battle Cat) as these items do not have a set schedule and will range in price.

In addition, this year there is a $20.00 sign up fee. For this fee you will receive a few goodies including an exclusive carded figure which will ship by March of 2010. This figure will not be sold any other way and is only available if you sign up for the Eternia Fan Club. You may buy as many subscriptions as you want and each subscription will include the bonus figure and other goodies.”
