Oh, I wonder how hostile this batch of answers will be.
Can someone PM me the US number for Matty? I want to talk to someone who might has a clue of what is going on.

It was a simple mistake and those "orders" were not "honored" because it is not fair to sub holders for a few accidental orders to trump them getting their figures first. Our customers are a smart bunch

Since when does the definition of "not honored" mean "orders taken, completed and shipped out"?The early listing of September Snakemen and DB Skeletor on Mattycollector was clearly a mistake, but seems to speak to the persistent problems with Digital River. How does this occur and why not honor orders placed?

Guess we all imagined those pictures posted by folks who thought they got their early orders in the mail?

Probably not half as hostile or snarky as your pre-emptive attempt at bashing Scott/Mattel even before you've seen the replies!
Harken to the coming of RIO BLAST!!
Quoted for truth! I don't want to single anyone out, but wouldn't it be better to at least approach these things with out a stack of negative preconceived notions? Isn't that the He-Mannish way?Probably not half as hostile or snarky as your pre-emptive attempt at bashing Scott/Mattel even before you've seen the replies!

Yes, I was one of those who received an order that they claimed wasn't honored. It's so odd they would make this obviously untruthful statement.Since when does the definition of "not honored" mean "orders taken, completed and shipped out"?

I've only just noticed the Filmation Castle Grayskull is being used on the 30th Anniversary logo....
Yet it's the toy version the MOTUC toy will be based off... weird.
Need: Queen Angella, Imp, Filmation Kowl, Filmation Hordak and Tung Lashor.
Would like: Entrapta, Mermista, Dylamug, Spinnerella, Peekablue and Filmation Clawful.
The 30th anniversary is over next yearI've only just noticed the Filmation Castle Grayskull is being used on the 30th Anniversary logo....

and your point is?The 30th anniversary is over next yearThey are still using the Filmation version on artwork used on the MOTUC toyline. Why not art based on the vintage toy or an update of the vintage toy? It seems odd to me when they are going in a different direction with the possible new toy in classics...

... that the logo won't be around anymore when MOTUC Castle Grayskull comes out ? Besides CG wasn't even on the table when that logo was made ... they just threw together something quickly for the 30th.and your point is?

It was to celebrate the acquisition of Filmation access last year. The actual MOTUC castle considered every type of Castle Grayskull, including Filmation.
I think the Castle was changed because the RGD crew mentioned that the Grayskull that Mattel was going to use for the 30th was terrible and that they later changed it to Filmation Grayskull.I've only just noticed the Filmation Castle Grayskull is being used on the 30th Anniversary logo....

As for the art direction of the Castle in Classics, the whole line is based off of the original toys, paintings and cardback versions. The Castle will follow that direction too.
No more diarama pieces? Surely a throne of bones would sell like crazy?
Why are the FFM coming in that massive Star Sisters box? Shouldn't they come in the Vykron box? Even that one is too big, but at least it's better.
Except for POP.
The Star Sisters (now Fighting Foe Man) box is such a waste of space. It is the worst packaging so far in the line.
That's my number one non-figure want!

Actually, I have a feeling the opposite will be true - I don't see it coming with that many accessories like that, to keep the price down. If Grayskull goes through, and 2014 goes through, I have a feeling we will see a couple of add-on items in 2014. I think there is a decent profit margin on these for them, more so than a figure.
I would love to see this. Depending on what they include (like the space suit the training spinner etc), there would be and still even if those are included would be a lot of possibilities. I am thinking that if Grayskull gets the green light (and probably even now in anticipation) that the Weapons Rack would and will sell quite well.
Wow, it seems that the answers are pretty slow coming in this month. I wonder why?

That's a good question...a LOT of people don't have their Q&A's up.
Mattel: We actually have not announced anything about 2014 at this point. It is still too early to comment.
Wait, they have not announced anything about 2014?? Oh, thank Procrustus, it was all just a bad dream. I had this horrible dream that Mattel told us that 2014 was not even certain to happen and then if it did, then it could only be 6-12 figures, or less. I am glad they have not really mentioned any information about 2014 and this was just my wild imagination.
