    This most-wanted list is quite suspicious....I though the most-wanted figures where the most valued on eBay (where is Teela?) or the fastest sold out (where is Kobra Khan?). Let's say that it is a half most-wanted-to-buy list and half most-wanted-to-sell list.

    I wouldn't take "Most Wanted" too seriously. It's a marketing gimmick. It's like showing up to a "Door Buster" sale and complaining that the doors are still intact.

    Cripes, how many of those Molar sets did they make? They've been in umpteen sales, including blind box Mad Matty sales... how on earth do they still have MORE?

    I guess they assumed if you were a fan of Robot Chicken...AND MOTUC, you have to buy it....well I bought a loose Skeletor, for $20, and that was that....The set is a cool novelty, but not as a serious collectable....I have no use for Mo-Larr really, but I almost bought one from BBTS because they were like $30, just to say I have one....but meh, and then it sold out....so whatever no loss.
    Recent....Foe Men, Karatti & Spirit of Hordak
    Coming....
    Wanted....Filmation Hordak & Clawful, Seahawk, Castaspella, Batros & Icer
    Considering....Mosquitor, Leech
    Needed....Dragstor, Mantenna,Two Bad & Attack Trak

    Shadow Weaver. The subscribers have had plenty of time to savour the figure or make mammoth profits on ebay. Give us all a chance to grab Shadow Weaver for a Matty price and then we can start celebrating this 30th anniversary in some style and parity!

    Im excited to get Sy-Klone myself. Anyway, most wanted might be a stretch judging by Gygor and Mo-Larr but it's cool that they're doing some early reissues just the same.

    So... it's just 10% off? Making them the same price they were when they originally went on sale. Woo hoo.

    Still no Whiplash or Randor resale. Starting to give up hope on them ever coming back.

    I nearly want to buy 2 more He-Mans so I can have two bucks for Vykron. Sure, his wrists wouldnt match but that would be most noticeable on Space Vykron (since barbarian Vykron is my "Real" one, and the Military one's snap on wrist guards seem to cover the wrists more) but then until in hand, I wont be certain.

    Almost want another Hiss, so I can display that snake top too...and have an extra snake top to add additional snakes to the one....hmmmmnnn....

    I need Vikor, so this is good news. The problem is that the figures that I want are up for sale in 3 different waves. Shipping is going to suck in July.

    Wind Raider for $50.... I wanted to buy another one but will have to pass. I don't even know if the Battle-Ram is worth $50.. Yeah it is. I would buy 3 Battle-Rams for $50 a piece. Please don't tell Mattel.

    I'm guessing if they made Battle Ram it'd be AT LEAST $50! I always thought Wind Raider seemed like a steal at $40. At $45 I was okay with it. But man there is something psychologically daunting about $50! I'm glad I have one. I have thought about getting another but honestly I just don't have the space. But if you look at the sculpting and engineering and the paint and compare it to vehicles out on the market, the WR seems like a remarkably great deal even at $50. I know some people's heads are going to start spinning around after I said that... but it's actually true.

    I recently got the Avengers Quin Jet. It's very nice and has some decent paint and features and it's $30. But the paint apps aren't nearly as nice as Wind Raider and it doesn't come with stand. If this were a mass-market retail line I could see the Wind Raider being about $35-$40. So the fact that it's this much without being so widely distributed is pretty awesome.

    I am totally with you JonWes. I have 3 and was thinking about getting another but for some reason that extra $5 is psychologically daunting. I guess for $50 we expect more. I will wait for them to go on sale I guess.

    I would probably pay upwards to $60 for a Battle Ram if it was as awesome as the one revealed. That will be expensive if I buy more than 3...

    Think I'll get myself another Bubble Butt She-Ra so I can display all three She-Ra heads.

    This sale doesn't look quite exciting (price and items)!

    I'm really waiting for Cyber Monday sale! I had a great blast last year with it! Mo-Larr VS Skeletor at $20 that's a deal! and so were the palace gards set!!! nearly everything that was listed was at -50%! Unless those precious art prints!

    Can't wait for Spikor and Vykron!

    So I have made the decision to wait till the July sale so that I can save on shipping when I buy my extra Spikor and JLU figures. But if Bubble Power goes to almost gone I will jump in and make some purchases before then. BUT if she holds out till the Spikor sale day I will buy another Wind Raider in addition to my other figures I plan on purchasing, if they are still available.

    I think the Wind Raider will be long gone by July 16,well I hope it is or it will be labeled a failure yet again. I've swallowed the hard truth that I will be making 3 orders in July. It isn't ideal but I want 2 more WRs and another Vikor which will go fast I'm sure. Then Spikor and extra essentials, and then Vykron and maybe something else. It's pretty crappy how its all being spaced out. The only upside is August and September will be lighter. But I love getting so much MOTUC on my front porch each month.

    You just have to lol.

    - They couldn't get rid of them first up.
    - They couldn't get rid of them in the Mad Matty blind boxes.
    - They couldn't get rid of them when they are heavily discounted.

    Now they're back and back at the original price? :P Hilarious!

    I still can't bring myself to bite......

    Still debating on if I want a BP she-ra or not. I think I really only need a TRU version since that is how I want to display her but is it worth it to get one anyway then hunt down the head/weapons/cape?

    Man-At-Arms and Adora are showing up in the MOTUC Shop near the top of the page, but they don't say 'coming soon!' Anyone have a clue what that is about? I could really use another of each!
    Hide & Seek Hordak does nothing to make collecting fun.

    They were sold 2 months ago and Matty never took them down. Mossman has been up forever for some reason too.
