NYCC - News, Reveals, Pics ....

[MegaGearMax]

I'd be beyond stoked for this if they hadn't already tried the same thing like 3 times previously and given up after only a few Rangers. Fool me once...

Ha! I feel the same with Street Fighter. Once companies make Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Akuma and Guile, the line dies.

Bandai America isn't making the new SHF figures. Bluefin Tamashii is releasing them in the US. They actually deal in collector lines.

(Sorry for going off topic!)

I hate to say this, but Mattel has to show something incredible to take away my excitement from this:

I have no excitement for that whatsoever, I dislike Power Rangers, always have, I see it as a Voltron knock, regardless if it is or not....but glad you have something to look forward to.

When it comes to people dressed in colored costumes, or uniforms....I prefer Allura, Sven, Lance, Pidge & Keith....Hunk, or Star Fleet personnel.

Well, Voltron was in the states first.....Power Rangers didn't hit till the 90's. I agree with you, Voltron all the way. That being said those figures do look pretty cool so I'm glad fans are getting them.

On the MOTU front that Skeletor Letter Opener looks pretty sweet. I'll have to watch ebay.

Ummm, what?

[Bonehead]

I wouldn't expect to see more than two figures and the Grayskull plans. They only revealed three new figures less than a month ago, and we're already looking at July of next year. So I'd guess we'll see Clamp Champ, since we know he's coming, and maybe one other - the 3rd Quarterly figure, perhaps.

Yeah I don't think we'll see much new stuff at all.

They've already shown half of next year. They have to leave something to show off at NYTF in February.

This time they mean it. I'll never trust Bandai unless they release the entire team at the same time.

Uh, you guys do realize this is the SH Figuarts line? The only teams that have been completed thus far are the Gokaigers and Shinkengers, and all of the team members outside of Red and the sixth have been Japanese web exclusives. The other rangers just don't sell as well as red and the sixth in Japan, which is why they are not mass produced and have a wide release. If we get any other team members, it will be nothing but Dragon Ranger.

NECA and Jazwares can't even get to Vega.

[RockinHard]

Someone remind me. . . what time is the MOTUC/Mattel panel?

[Baena]

Someone remind me. . . what time is the MOTUC/Mattel panel?

It's at "Not soon enough:30am"

I think it's Saturday, not sure the time.

[Benedict Judas Hel]

NECA and Jazwares can't even get to Vega.

Yeah, but those figures were horrible. You can't really blame that on your flawed Ryu/Ken/Akuma/Guile/Chun-Li business model. SOTA's were the best and had a pretty impressive percentage of the SF cast.

[Prahvus]

Someone remind me. . . what time is the MOTUC/Mattel panel?

NYCC's Mattypalooza will take place on Saturday, between 12:15 and 1:15 pm (New York time).

[Crusader]

I hope to see Gwildor, Saurod or Blade. The movie characters really deserve some more attention, given their 25th aniversary.

I'm expecting to see Clamp-Champ, Dactys and a Horde Trooper staff.

[bcrduke]

Rumors are swirling.

Can't get a definite read, but one, two, or three of the following things would be my guess:

Castaspella
Clamp Champ
Horde Troopers
Darius
Shokoti
Battle Ram

Remember, we still have the announcement that Scott said he will make at NY Toy Fair in Feb. it's an announcement that has to do with "getting more fan favorites out more quickly."

So maybe that explains the willingness to reveal so much of 2013. There might be more ahead.

Yeah. I liked NECA's versions except for the Ryu and Ken faces and C. Viper's weird articulation. That Chun Li was the best yet!

[He-Dad]

Rumors are swirling.

Can't get a definite answer but the following things are in the mix:

Castaspella
Clamp Champ
Horde Troopers
Ninjor
Darius
Shokoti
Battle Ram

If the rumors are true than I no longer regret my 2013 subscription Looks like an amazing year ahead!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK! I'd kind of given up on The Battle Ram for the time being since they're working on getting Grayskull out, but man OH man I still want it SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO bad!

Bring on Battle Ram! That would be really good news.

[Stygian360]

Amen to this-- ^ And a possible Shokoti would be great... although I really wouldn't expect it until NYTF in a few months.

Some cynical side of me says getting my hopes up for a Battle Ram is jumping the gun, especially since fans haven't even been given the chance to pre-order (and thus show their love) for Greyskull yet. I'd think based on those sales Mattel miiiiiiiiigggghhht be willing to consider greenlighting Battle Ram, but probably (like Greyskull) only as a pre-order. And with the dismal sales on Wind Raider who can blame them?

[musclor]

Yeah, I really want battle ram. Terribly. That proto was a thing of beauty.

BcrdukE, was ninjor originally in that list?

[MegaGearMax]

Now turn those Ram Man and Netossa packages around...let's see some BIOS!!!!

[He-Dad]

IF they do announce Battle Ram....and I hope they do.......I hope they sell sky sleds seperate. I would buy a fleet! Very much looking forward to Saturday!!

[MegaGearMax]

Ninjor for Power-Con! It's just the place to show off a ninja character.

[Toyguru]

BTW: since I know it may be asked, King He-Man and Strobo are still coming, they were both needed at Mattel this week and couldn't make the show!
