With only 4 people buying them? Yes, they should be around all year, and next year, and the year after that.

Seriously though, I expect them to be like the Grayskull ones and only have a limited number made to sell out, and then they will rerelease them next year.

Not too sure about four ppl, i bought three...

Sounds like a fair call. Time will tell!

I hope so too, i want some to customise. They'll probably still be around then NN, unless Mattel takes 'em off.

I just placed my order, and I passed on Stinkor. I'll get him later when his arms are fixed, or maybe not at all.

His arms will never be fixed. If they cared about fixing mixed up joints, Roboto and Hsss would have been fixed. If we want a fixed Stinkor, he would have to take up another character's slot in the monthly subs.

Personally, I think they should use next year's quarterly variants for corrected Roboto, Hsss, Stinkor, and Snout Spout if they are going to play this "defects happen" game.

Cool! Guess the forearms issue didn't bother quite a few people. Glad I nabbed an extra one for my brother now.

"I'll get him later when his arms are fixed, or maybe not at all."

I wouldn't hold your breath on that one. I got an extra one, as I loved the vintage character, but passed on an extra Slush-Head even though I very distinctly remember having him as a kid. Maybe I'll watch Pixel Dan's video and that will change my mind. lol

interesting note...

If you clear your cookies an refresh the window then search for stinkor, he no longer is even listed on the site at all...
When you search on Matty for Stinkor you get this...

No results were found for: stinkor
Please try searching for another key word.

...lets pray alot of us wont get packages with a missing stinkor from our orders now due to the entire site listing for Stinkor having been removed in the middle of sale day....

**Larry Waters** · May 15, 2012, 02:25pm

I couldn't get out of my meeting in time to make the noon order time. Got Slush Head from Matty, ordered Stinkor from BBTS. Passing on Spector.

**Met-Hild** · May 15, 2012, 02:48pm

I knew he'd be sold out by the time I got home today. At least I get the consolation of knowing that I never had the smallest chance no matter how long it got me to get back, he was already gone before the car started for the way back. It would be even worse to know that I missed him by mere minutes or seconds.

I think it's stupid to even say it would take up a slot to correct a problem they let slip through, and one they caused themselves. It's stupid because when they did second runs, they didn't take up slots, and they "corrected" He-Man & Skeletor for their second runs. So the problem now is?

Scott said in an answer that when the stands are gone they won't be coming back (no re-issues bla bla). if there are enough to last to the end of the year, he didn't say.

so basically they will bomb today... an wont sell till they have no choice but sell them in a mass year end blowout sell.

As frankly.. they are SERIOUSLY fugly.... an I personally wont even consider buying any of these till they are at LEAST $12 or less...

**ksensor** · May 15, 2012, 03:33pm

Yay for Stinky selling out so quickly! Bring on Spikor!!!

At least you got him from BBTS BC. Sucks Matty sold out of him so quickly. I knew he would go fast today, but not 30 MIN fast

**CanadaClassics** · May 15, 2012, 04:25pm

30 mins will be a long time when Spikor sale day arrives!

Eh, such is life. It's the chance I took when I eschewed the subscription, so I'm certainly not complaining.

It would make me far happier, however, if we were getting Stinkor with the proper forearms.

**Rael** · May 15, 2012, 06:08pm

Damn, didn´t get home on time. Even tho they don´t reissue him, maybe they´ll put on sale remaining stock or mad matty or something

**Falconhood** · May 15, 2012, 06:21pm

wow! that was quick. what was the total time?

**Robogeek1973** · May 15, 2012, 06:32pm

Why do I keep seeing comments about Matty not reissuing things, have they stopped doing reissues now?

How so?

We've been told there will be no reissues since last year when they were trying to drive subscription sales.

How, exactly is this weird?
