Posted 10 July 2015 - 08:48 AM

I agree the price gouging is over the top, but it's still cheaper for me to pay over the odds on eBay than to fly to the US and put up with the crowds at comic con. $150 for all 6 packs, the coin, the patch and the purple Skeletor is silly really, but at least it's "in the bag" and when the prices drop (as they surely will) I can pick up a second set, pick the cleanest of each to keep sealed and open the others...

Cool offer.    Can I just grab some for you right now on Ebay and get some store credit for a later date?

Hey now, I'm not the one to go pissing on spirits!

I've pissed out plenty of spirits over the years, though.

My buddy just texted me saying Super7 is officially sold out of their MOTUSCLE stock at SDCC and they (emphasis) MIGHT be restocking them, but they will definitely be for sale on their website after the show. But he did get me a Skeletoken, so I am happy...for now.

Must fight the temptation to over pay for MOTUSCLES on ebay, must fight paying a $56+ premium for a complete flesh set, must fight the urge to brag that I already have all them during comic-con time rather than regular retail time. Must fight...who am I kidding I'm not even trying I'll wait to order them online at the original retail price of $24. I can wait.

I have no problem waiting for the flesh ones but am SO tempted to buy a purple Skeletor off eBay. But then I remember that the people selling got them for free, and I just can't.

Also, TRU carries some Re-action figures, so I wonder if there's any chance these would eventually be sold there as well as online?

I'm going to hold out till they release online. $19 is tempting but I'm going to feel like crap if I can get 2 packs for same price when they go online

Skip ahead and you can see GREAT shots of some figures and read about why and how they were made and what may be coming up next.

Awesome. I wish Trap Jaw's left arm was a little more substantial, but these are pretty f**king rad. I'm really curious as to what the material feels like, and I would likely trade my left nut for a purple Skeletor. 

I doubt I would have any takers though, to be honest.

I would be willing to bet dollars to donuts though, that Hordak will be in wave 2. Hooray. I'm also hoping they make an Orko AKA "The ORIGINAL Jar-Jar".

Quote from the article, from one of the Super7 guys:

 

"I'm such a fanboy for MOTU, I want to make literally every character as part of the M.U.S.C.L.E. line."

 

Yesssss!

At K-Mart, I recently saw boxes full of the NYCC 2014 Mega Bloks Call of Duty gold freebie and Spongebob freebie. It would be funny to see purple Skeletor in a K-Mart next year.

If you're outside of the US and holding off and hoping to buy from the Super7Store, just be aware that they're asking $49 to ship just one ReAction figure to the UK, so eBay might work out cheaper after all!

Man, I'm jealous! I still regret not sending money down for the MOTU ReAction figs, They look SUPER dope. But then part of me thinks that for me those would cause a bit of buyers remorse...I only ever really keep smaller figures long term.
