    2013 Sub - Keeping vs Chucking. Who's keeping what from this year's sub?

    With so much talk about the sub being all in or nothing, having to buy figures you don't want to get the ones you do, I was wondering what sort of plans people had with the upcoming figures to see how many people actually do plan to keep most of what's released.

    Honestly, if they were all Day of Sales and I wasn't 'forced' to buy them, I'd be interested in fewer, but my list is as follows:

    Netossa - Sold
    Ram Man - Keeping
    Jitsu - Keeping
    Fang Man - Selling
    King He Man - Keeping
    Snake Face - Keeping
    Fighting Foe Men - Keeping (probably)
    Karatti - Selling
    Octavia - Keeping
    Clamp Champ - Keeping
    New Adventures He Man - Keeping (maybe)
    Geldor - Selling

    So, I am still ahead in what I am committed to - now just to not get stuck with the duds.

    Well, I too went "all in" and thus far....

    Netossa - Traded
    Ram Man - Keeping
    Jitsu - Keeping
    Fang Man - Keeping
    King He Man - Keeping
    Snake Face - Keeping
    Fighting Foe Men - Keeping (probably - although the only one I really like is the hooded Gar)
    Karatti - Selling or Trading
    Octavia - Keeping (probably - I'll decide when she arrives)
    Clamp Champ - Trading
    New Adventures He Man - Trading
    Geldor - Trading

    So yeah, that was a lot of trading....however, I filled in/will be filling in some holes I wanted filled for awhile so it wasn't all bad. I don't think I'll be doing it again next year though unless there is a higher percentage of figures I want to keep. If there's only a handfull I'll preorder from BBTS or hit the marketplace.

    Keeping everything revealed so far except for possibly the Fighting Foe Men. I just really can't stand them and I'm either going to try to recoup as much of my $75 as possible or use them in much the same way that I'm using Cy-Chop (who I also absolutely cannot stand):

    I will be keeping 2 of each figure (1 moc, 1 loose) for myself. I did, however, purchase extra subs to "help the line" and those I will be selling or trading.
    MOST WANTED: Two-Bad, Ice Armor He-Man, Hydron, Flogg, Horde Trooper,
    NA Skeletor, Ninjor, Sagitar, Master Sebrian, and Rio Blast

    I keep everything!
    Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti

    I will be keeping all my 2013 figures.
    The only questionable one is Netossa, but I'll just display her in my daughters room for now. She can play with her, and some of the other POP characters when she is older.

    I bought one sub and subbed with someone who didnt want the vintage figures. So I will have a Ram Man, Jitsu, Clamp Champ and whatever other vintage characters they make this year. I did however also agree to take someone's NA figures so I can start a MOC collection.
    Mattel I demand the following:
    MOTUC:
    Spinwit,Fisto(THANK YOU) Spinnerella Lord Dactys, The Scientists
    DCUC: Shining Knight, Saint Walker, Amethyst

    I'm keeping everything too. I like new characters and those that I don't have any previous "connection to in any way." If all MOTU ever is and ever will be is continuous rehashing of the same characters we already know and love then it would surely die after all the nostalgia based collectors get their 80s remakes. I'm glad to see the line growing and encompasing more characters, it means there is hope for new possibilities in the future to be mixed in with all of our old favorites from the 80s.

    I got 2 subs, and I will be selling or trading everything in the second, unless one of the unannounced figures is one I want two of. If the army builder is Horde Troopers I will keep both sets

    Of my primary sub:

    Netossa - Kept
    Ram Man - Keeping
    Jitsu - Keeping
    Fang Man - Keeping
    King He Man - Keeping
    Snake Face - Keeping
    Fighting Foe Men - Keeping (And I may keep the 2nd set for customs if there is not a market or interest)
    Karatti - Keeping
    Octavia - Keeping
    Clamp Champ - Keeping (Probably)
    New Adventures He Man - Keeping (maybe)
    Geldor - Selling
    Its is spelled "Crita", not "Critta". Misspell her name and Crita will knock the "T" out of you!

    Also...get her into the line!

    Netossa - Would love to sell or trade but it appears there isn't much of a market.
    Ram Man - Keeping
    Jitsu - Keeping
    Fang Man - Would like to sell or trade, but the sword of anchients may hook me into keeping.
    King He Man - Would like to sell or trade
    Snake Face - Keeping
    Fighting Foe Men - Keeping
    Karatti - Would like to sell or trade
    Octavia - Need to see in-hand, but Would like to sell or trade
    Clamp Champ - Keeping
    New Adventures He Man - Would like to sell or trade
    Geldor - Would like to sell or trade

    I basically subbed only to ensure I got a Ram Man and Jitsu. Hoping for more vintage reveals (Two-Badd and/or Mantenna would be nice). hit me up if anyone wants to make a deal for the ones I don't want.

    Thanks!
