    2012: 15 figures in 6 months!

    OK I also read about changes to the 2013 sub, but man oh man, can you believe that including the 30th Ann figures, we will get 15 all new figures in the first half of 2012? That's way more than the first year's offering. I can not imagine that the 2nd half of 2012 will have as many... 30 figures in a year? When many folks remember getting 1 figure per month... that's almost 3 years in one! I'm not sure my wallet can handle a 2013 as robust as 2012; not sure I can house that many new figures either.

    1-3. Star Sisters
    4. Fisto
    5. Photog
    6. Shadow Weaver
    7. Kobra Khan
    8. TP He-Man
    9. Draego
    10. Slush-Head
    11. Spector
    12. Stinkor
    13. Horde Prime
    14. Snake Man-At -Arms
    15. Griffin

    Pretty crazy, but fun!

    I'm loving the clogging of my toy shelf.

    This line is so great. I love big months. I thought May we were only getting stinkor and then I remembered slush head and spector were coming aswell to swell the ranks of my motuc collection.

    Let's not forget that I'm usually a MOC collector but man I've also started to buy figures to display loose. So add another 15 to my list. I love the reissues that they're doing. I'm really only wanting the vintage figures I had as a kid so that another 50+ figures I need. Face palm b/c that's tons of cha ching $$$. Yeah ouch on my wallet as well. But it's one of my passions so it's all good all day long.

    For my taste it's a bit too much now.

    But remember 2009- when evryone was whining about the figures taking like forever to be released?!

    They need to slow things down a bit. --- maybe if we go back to one figure a month the quality will go up. I have a feeling something will change in 2013.

    just great yesh. But my passes were Stratos (got the 2 pack version), Zodac & Zodak (got them after all), Preternian Disguise He Man (no sub, still dont have), Hurricane Hordak (will get eventually I realize)....and I think that's it. As you can see I end up getting what I skip anyways eventually. I'll probably even get a Preternian He-Man eventually, if only to leave in box and be more complete.

    Heck, I am not getting the 2packTru She-Ra, but I got all the rest, excepting Merman...who I feel like I may get eventually as well... sigh..

    I don't mean to be an internet toy pusher, but Blue Mer-Man is one of my favorite figures. Sure, Mermy is my favorite character, but man, that figure is just a lot of fun.

    Totally, wickedly, awesomely radical. I love this line-everything about it-and as much as I fear for my wallet, I can't get enough!!!
    Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti

    I only have one in the box. Sometimes I think I hear his faint, gurgling voice calling out to me..."NC, release me, I was in the mini-comics you loved, release your childhood friend, Ggarrgle!"

    And what's coming up?

    4-6 SDCC Exclusive (hey, it's a three in one, but they are technically variants!)
    7-8 Q3 & Q4 Quarterly Variants
    9-14 July - August Monthly Figures
    15-16 Snake Warriors
    17 - Granamyr
    18 - TOD Sorceress
    19-??? 4th Quarter Beast.


    Yeah. 2012 is a pretty robust year.

    Blue Mer-man made the whole 2-pack thing worth it.

    I LOVE that we've had this many figures so far. I'm terribly greedy and would love to keep it up... but I'm okay with going back to a more normal schedule if we must next year.

    This made me literally lol. :-) I'm in the "it's too much too fast camp." Each figure used to feel special because there was a month to get to know it. Now it's like, "another MOTUC for the pile."

    On the other hand, if this line doesn't last forever, there's some wisdom in getting as much out as possible.
