So Mosquitor would have a chest plate with blood painted?
And Slushie would have his helmet filled with clear plastic with some bubbles to simulate the water?

Thanks, but no thanks!
C'mon Mattel, you know that you can give us the real features, not necessairly action-features, but I think you can use some liquid for both of them!

I know that, speaking of Mosquitor, you would have to tool a completely new torso, but heck, MOTUC is growing stronger every month, and you said that we can expect a lot of new tooling on figures!

edit:
OK, I found an escamotage to add water to Slush Head, simply make a removable and water-tight helmet, so when the figure arrive in our hands we can add it, simply as that!

I think is even more necesary that Slush Head has water on his head than Mosquitor blood on his chest. But please Mattel, try to do both with liquid.

**Atomicdios** · January 14, 2011, 08:08pm

Yes Yes Yes! Water in Slush Head's helmet and blood in Mosquitor's chest is a must but done tastefully. These 2 figs can't come soon enough!

**Mike Bock** · January 14, 2011, 09:46pm

I can't imagine Slush Head having a helmet painted with clear paints on the inside to simulate water, that woud look awful, same with Mosquitor.

I hope they read this petition.

**AGE** · January 14, 2011, 10:22pm

would love to see the liquid, i understand they can't have an "action feature" but i think they should at least have the visual feature "water" and "blood"

similar to the moss on moss man.

Personally i think these figs without these add ones would only hurt the overall perfection of them

so i hope Matty digs deep and adds these extras

**heavy-eternium** · January 14, 2011, 10:27pm

yes and yes ,blood(obviously false) and water are absolutely necessary in this characters.

**cifrax** · January 14, 2011, 10:49pm

Blood in Mosquitor's chest and water in Slush Head's helmet!!!!! in this characters is absolutely necessary.

**leaper1976** · January 14, 2011, 11:11pm

Blood in the chest and water in the head are what the figures were about IMO. To not have those features would eliminate the purpose of them. I agree with this petition.

**Mijet** · January 14, 2011, 11:12pm

Can't believe they gave us Roboto like they did but can't do these two. *sigh*

**yodafreakmaster** · January 14, 2011, 11:30pm

COUNT ME IN!!!! I would LOVE to get these guys with the liquid/semi-liquid included!! Anything less would be terribly disappointing. With that being said, I would rather have both of these characters without liquid than 95% of the other possible characters out there to be made. I NEED Mosquitor in my MOTUC's collection!!! Slush too

Yeah, that's Hasbro - but I'm pretty sure the same would go for Mattel!

The thing is..would that apply to an adult collector's line?

**Slayor** · January 14, 2011, 11:52pm

I don't really think I want water from a Chinese factory in my toys.

**Ornclown** · January 14, 2011, 11:58pm

Okay, no blood in Mosquitor is like no spikes on Spikor!

No water in Slush-Head's helmet is like no flocking on Moss-Man!

What the heck Mattel? You can have a "pine scented" Moss Man, rotating gears in Roboto's chest, a DISAPPEARING Orko, but no liquid???

For a line that is supported by a large number of fans, who pay at minimum $20.00 a figure, these requests seem very acceptable.

Please reconsider...

In all reality it shouldnt. I want the liquids also but unless something changes I dont see it. Remember Mattel already got in big trouble with the lead paint issues. So I am sure there is actual govt rules in place with this also. If not Mattel will still try to avoid it like anything due to the lead problems.
True we are adults so we should know better.
But time and time again people sue over things that they should know.
ie-Coffee is hot.-Cruise Control doesnt actually drive the car.

We will just have to see what can be done.
If it is a big issue I would Like Mattel to come out on fan pages and ask what options fans could live with. That would be better then saying and doing nothing.

Yes - Mattel have said MotUC has to pass all the same safety checks as all their other lines. Which is why, for instance, Bow has an unstrung longbow (it was that or have an arrow permanently attached, apparently).

**Kevenn** · January 15, 2011, 12:19am

I would prefer that they have liquid.

**bianchi5** · January 15, 2011, 12:32am

NOOOOOOO!!There is no reason for a mosquitor existis if he don't have the blood on his chest!!Don't need to pump and all, BUT PUT THE GOD DAMN BLOOD ON THAT INSECT!!!!!

**Count Marzo** · January 15, 2011, 12:37am

Great, now we know what their BS excuse is gonna be for when they deny us.

**DroothR** · January 15, 2011, 12:45am

Mosquitor could be done with blood in a thin layer on the chest piece of armor (similar to the Best Buy exclusive Hills Have Eyes DVD cover).

It would lack the pumping feature obviously, but would still be there.

Slush Head though, I can't really see being done any other way than having a blueish tint/deco to the inside of his helmet bubble. Which personally I think would be ideal.

**Jukka** · January 15, 2011, 12:54am

Count me in. I definitely want there to be some type of liquid movement action.

**grenadaspice** · January 15, 2011, 12:55am

Hey Mike, if the original Slush Head figure didn't actually have a liquid and had a silicone to simulate liquid, why don't you think the 4H won't make him the same way? Seems to me he wouldn't be a problem if actual liquid wasn't used in the first place. As for Mosquitor, sign me up on the petition.

**davidlogan** · January 15, 2011, 01:16am

Guys if a Mom were walking down the toy isle and saw that Misquitor and Slushead have liquid inside them and the others figures didn't it would be confusing and lead to mass hysteria in hypothetical toy stores across the country.

Oh I'm sure they could do it, the problem is that things have changed now days and that seems to be a problem ( check out reboot's post). Also in the Q&As it sounds as if they simply want to paint the water in or the blood.

If they find a way to simulate the water and the blood in a very realistic way, I'd be happy.

I just don't want them to be painted on. That wouldn't look right.

**Patreek** · January 15, 2011, 01:26am

yes please please liquid for these guys
