At the She-Ra panel today, Eric Scot Frydler said that "Mattel" said that Josh was going to be a figure. By "Mattel," I wonder if he meant Toyguru?

MOTUC Most Wanted: Skeletor's Robot Knights, Two-Bad, Horde Troopers, Modulok, Sssqueeze, Tung Lashor, Stridor, Night Stalker, the Battle Ram, and a true, alternate head for Wun-Dar (since he's a "different" character)!
I think I saw the clamp champ weapon. Scott had it in his bag

I don't think Eric Scot Frydler was joking, but I suppose it's possible that Toyguru was, if that's who told him the figure was coming.
Apparently, an obscure but beloved male character from the PoP minicomics created by Eric Scot Frydler.

More reveals in July, then more Toyguru blogs until sub emails hold us over into Toy Fair 2013.
Then 2014 will be revealed at SDCC (including the best SDCC figure to date) Sub sales will do very well due to A-Lister presence, but it may carry over into 2015 with solid leftover B-characters. 2015 and 2016 will be very shaky once 2014 runs the well dry.
The original roadmap should have been followed. Everyone would have been placated.

July: Agree with Clamp Champ
August: Probably Glimmer or Castaspella
September: Shokoti
October:Prahvus
November:Lord Dactys
December: It's a 3 way guess, Two-bad, Mantenna or Rio-Blast
SDCC exclusive: Madame Razz/Broom, Kowl, Lookee
Traveling Exclusive: Filmation Hordak w/Imp
Remaining quarter figures: NA Skeletor, and Horde Trooper 2 pack
Out of Sub: Zodak Chair, Battle Ram, Skeletor's Robot Nights 2 pack
Then what we will see at next years SDCC??? That's really far off but...
Sub exclusive: King Miro
January: Scorpia
Feb: Squeeeze
March: (which ever of Glimmer or Castaspella didn't come out in previous year)
April: Evil Seed
May: Hydron
June:Angella
Julywhich ever they didn't do in the previous December) so either Rio-blast, Two-bad, or Mantenna
SDCC exclusive Light Hope
after that I'm dumbfounded and honestly would have a pretty complete collection. I'd love Modulock, multi-bot, and Tung-lashor, Lizardman, Malaktha, and Sea Hawk, and Kothos though. Also a few more POP ladies would be nice. Peekablue, Mermista, and Entrapta, maybe Perfuma as a goof ...I'd take it. lol

Top 10 Most Wanted:1/Madame Razz (with Broom), 2/Scorpia, 3/Glimmer 4/Filmation Hordak (with Imp), 5/Kowl, 6/Queen Angella, 7/Two-Bad 8/Modulok, 9/Dylamug and 10/Strong Arm.
Is everyone forgetting the Castle Grayskull B-Sheet at NYCC next month? Then the prototype (if enough orders happen) at NY Toy Fair in February? Those, to me, are big time!

I'm right there with you this would be the worst reveal ever!
Possibly the lamest character ever! Dude at a picnic, I mean the Scientists, Songster, Plundor, Twiggits, Crackers are all legendary compared to Josh and I have zero interest in any of those also.
I must say (and this is no offence to anyone), I think a Josh or Songster figure would split the community like no other reveal EVER...
As for future reveals, I hope Mattel look to the overwhelmingly well received characters at PowerCon for their future reveal strategy. Snake Face was a given and was a popular reveal, but Octavia - a high-profile Filmation character - and Karatti - a lesser-known character - were both hugely applauded by fans. I'd love for this to shape future quarters because it makes it much more exciting and unpredictable...
Imagine if the next three were Clamp Champ, Batros and Peekablue? Or Clamp Champ, Castaspella and Calix? Clamp Champ, Sea Hawk and Crita?
Either way, we know we're getting Clamp Champ. I just hope the rest of the reveals for 2013 match up to some brilliantly unexpected and diverse selections (the aforementioned, plus Netossa and Fang Man, IMO).
Yeah, but it's only one month's figure, so who really gives a snapple ice tea? Am I wrong? Granted, I hate to waste a spot on a dud figure that no one really wants, but this line has yet to deliver that for me, so my faith is on the idea that even a Josh or Songster would kick ass when rendered by the Horsemen.
Harken to the coming of SNAKEFACE!!
...And I must say to retort, if we get either of these before Mantenna, Glimmer or Two-Bad I will officially quit the line, end of story. And no matter of outpouring from friends, fellow fans, or people at Mattel saying their jobs are on the line is going to make me think differently. I want the full option to not buy either of these z list figures.

Are we the same person? lol:

Settle down folks we are not getting a Josh figure anytime soon. Eric had mentioned his intent for him during the mini comics panel on day one as being a friend of Bow and a regular character (being to Bow what Robin is to Batman --- not that Bow is anything like Batman). It seems he had a whole background developed including powers we never saw and Eric supposedly talked with Scott about this in the event that he ever does become a figure in the distant future ... Which I would be thrilled about. The rebellion needs more males which was Eric's intent all along despite roadblocks from management (hmm sound familiar?). His proclamation on day 2 I think was a product of him not being familiar with the new line and how it works.
MADAME RAZZ & BROOM IN 2013!!!

Top Ten MOTUC wants:Two Bad, Rio Blast, Modulok, Scorpia, Sagitar, Lizard Man, Tung Lashor, Multi-Bot, Dragstor, Ninjor,
My predictions/hopes:
July: Clamp Champ
SDCC: Madame Razz and Broom
August: Mantenna
September:Lord Dactys
October: Castaspella
November:Hydron
December: Geldor
Q3 bonus figure: Horde Troopers
Q4 bonus figure: Filmation Hordak and Imp
2014:
January: Glimmer
February: Two-bad
March: Lizard Man
Exclusive: Scorpia
Most needed characters before MOTUC ends...
Heroic: Extendar / Lizard Man / Eldor / Miro
Evil: Strongarm / Evilseed/ Two Bad
POP: Glimmer / Angella / Madame Razz & Broom / SeaHawk / Kowl / Lookee
Horde: Scorpia / Imp / Modulok/ Entrapta / Vultak/ Horde Trooper
SnakeMen: Tung Lashor / Ssqueeze
Rock People: Granita
NA: Darius / Hydron / Flogg / Mara / Sebrian
July: Clamp Champ
SDCC: Modulok
August: Glimmer
September:Hydron
October: Scorpia, Horde Troopers
November: Geldor
December: Squeeze, NA Skeletor
With King He-Man being the sub exclusive, I don't think we'd get a He-variant in that last slot, so I'm guessing NA Skeletor. One thing is for sure, we still have plenty of characters to get through!
Well, based on the hints I've seen around the board, I'm thinking
July: Clamp Champ
August: Calyx
September:Two Badd
October: Rio Blast
November: Geldor
December: Squeeeze
The above placement, month-wise, is pretty arbitrary, but I feel the choices themselves are pretty strong.
Horde Trooper 2 pack as the $50 item, I hope Modulok as SDCC (I seem to remember Bcrduke hinting him as an SDCC item like two years ago), and let's go with, oh, NA Skeletor as the remaining $25 slot.
check out my artwork at geooco.blogspot.com
July Clamp Champ
SDCC Madame Razz, Broom, Kowl, maybe Imp
August Ninjor
September Glimmer
October Rio Blast
November Geldor
December Mantenna
I would figure Hydron would be in the mix in place of one.....
