Haven't asked in a while, so,
Dear MATTEL,
When are you going to release the BfE II set?
And while we're at it, flocked Mossman with the correct weapon?
If this line ends with some figures being unreleased, I won't be happy, but I won't be mad either, it's been a good run. If this line ends with a small handful of important figures (flocked Mossman, Whiplash, Orko, Wun-Dar) being released but unattainable by fans, I'll be pretty upset. That's a whole different story.

Do you honestly expect a response when we haven't seen anyone from Mattel in this thread in months (at least), likely due to certain peoples' "negativity"?
I'm selling my collection in person at Power-Con. I love them but I've lost the interest due in part to buying all the new CMON and Archon gaming minis... a hobby I've been doing nearly as long as I've been buying and collecting toys.
Battle for Eternia 2 delivered this morning from amazon Italy at my door...didn't expected it....I ordered on January and was always out of stock until friday. And is out of stock still today. probably Amazon will fulfill orders as soon as they receive small amount on FIFO queue.
By the way for sure is the UK version since the price was a bit high compared to the first set available in Italy.
Has else found that the "rubber" holds on figures are prone to breaking on their own? I don't think I've got a he-man left who's not has his sword hold on his back snap (while it's been on a shelf, not being payed with), and I just moved my Trap Jaw and notice two of his belt loops have broken of their own accord too. It's like they dry out...
I haven't noticed this in any of my figures, but it's something I've been curious about. Given the short life span of rubber I can't fathom why Mattel opted to use it here. Maybe they will upgrade to plastic somehow in the future. Or maybe an enterprising customizer will come up with a solution.Originally Posted by d0od

A British one - so not super humidclearly I'm just unlucky, it seems. I'm not so annoyed by the he-man figures loops snapping as I tend to put the sword in his hand, but pretty annoying for trap jaw.
I've had it break on a few but not all ...yet.

I take that back, I do have one Skeletor with a broken sheath right out of the package. It didn't break trying to put the sword in, it was already broke.

Just spotted the listing for Eternia on Mattel Creations no longer specifies that it's a pre-order - I wonder if this means it's going to be shipping soon? Or am I just optimistic?

I wouldn't read anything into that. I ordered the Masterverse Man-E-Faces and 2 Hot Wheels cars off Mattel Creations almost 10 days ago and the order is still processing - and these were items shown as in stock.

Ah well, a false hope then. I've never used Mattel Creations before so don't know all its quirks!

Got my shipping notice for Eternia!
What's incredibly frustrating about it, is that it's for the Eternia that I ordered with Vykron. The Eternias I ordered on launch day has not shipped.

So much for the release date in August… I do get happy when they are earlier than expected :-)
I ordered mine on the day it was released, (within 6-10 minutes of the drop I think) fyi.
Creations shipping is bizarre - I just had a box turn up last week that shipped without any kind of notification, yet they emailed me when Grizzlor left the warehouse.
Just got the shipping notice for the others!Got my shipping notice for Eternia!

Yep, just got one as well.
I too just got my shipping notification from Mattel Creations stating that Eternia is shipping now!
Me as well. Very excited for this one.

Not only did I get my shipping notification for Eternia, but for my two BfE:II sets as well!
Unfortunately I didn't have the money in the bank to cover the BfE sets, but I went right over and put it in. So now I'm just waiting, hoping that it will ship soon. Until it does I will be waiting anxiously.
So, maybe these will be fulfilled after all!
As happy as I am, there is still a chance that the delay on payment won't bode well in the end. Why can't Mattel be more upfront about things? Why couldn't they say, "Hey, we're making more, be sure you've got the money in the bank." I mean really, it's not that difficult.

Where are the BFE sets coming from?
Amazon I assume.
That is correct. They were pre-ordered on Feb 15th if that helps, but I don't know how to tell if it is straight from Amazon or some other seller. It appears to be straight from Amazon.

All my fingers and toes crossed these will. The construx line is great, and these figures should be in every hand that wants them.So, maybe these will be fulfilled after all!
Just got the shipping notification for BFE II.
Am I the only one? It might just be for those who ordered through Amazon on that specific day (2-15-23).
It's some carrier I've never heard of called Asendia. Is that the Amazon service? I doubt it because it's scheduled for July 6th!
Either way I'm stoked. I really hope this is a sign of ongoing production, and not some random found stock. I still need a third set.
