What?! How do I get these?

**Coptur** · January 14, 2021, 10:41am

All I know they were in walmart

**DadStrong** · January 14, 2021, 10:43am

Holy wow that’s awesome. Definitely in for these

Thats what they should have done from the start. I will collect those. I hate the blind box idea (even though we did get the letters)

**samson** · January 14, 2021, 12:49pm

Get in my collection now, you little chunks of plastic loveliness! Much better than blind boxes!

**Spooked** · January 14, 2021, 12:59pm

I'm a little worried about distribution on these. Are they Canada only? And should I resort to eBay, I imagine getting the cards in good condition might be an issue. (Maybe the back card art is ugly? Then I'd feel better about passing on them.)

Wow they look cool but I really hope they haven't cancelled the Slime Pit cases.

**Smitty.81** · January 14, 2021, 02:50pm

Carded mini's kind of ruins the fun for me...

**Uki** · January 14, 2021, 03:06pm

Yeah, this is cool, but I don't think I like this in lieu of the fun blind boxes.

You have a very strange idea of 'fun'...

**Jeevesosiris** · January 14, 2021, 08:05pm

I need that Ninjor and Evil-Lyn... hope I can find them in the UK at some point.

**Grayskull Guardsman** · January 14, 2021, 10:56pm

I bet these are in addition to the “blind“ boxes. There are a lot of Minis coming, and I love it.

Mini Figure Rundown:

Battle Armor He-man/Skeletor - blind box and carded
Anti-Eternia He-man/MAA, Clawful, Zodac, Teela - blind box
Evil-lyn, Stratos, Ninjor, Anti-Eternia Teela/Ram Man - carded
Slime Pit Zodac/Buzz Off - ???
Orko - teased on social media, but not officially confirmed to be coming.
Fisto, Whiplash, Whiplash Redeco - listed on BBTS

Mekaneck, She-ra, Horde Trooper, Hordak, Webstor, He-ro - have tooling from unreleased wave years ago, never officially released.

Scareglow, King He-man, Moss Man, Mer-man - produced years ago, but yet to be rereleased in the Eternia Minis line.

Did I miss anything?

Hopefully lots to come!!!

Confused, I did like the blind boxes, the cases and the little plastic Grayskull and SM, it was a nice presentation. However these carded ones are cool and make it easier to collect I guess.

Great to see Ninjor get so much new product for a change.

Few more pictures of the box, insert & Anti-Eternia Teela
I believe the others have gone to another collector

Also any UK collector's it looks like MOTU product is exclusive to Toymaster stores but as franchise's it's hard to tell if all stores will stock the product.

They look great, I'm liking the Anti Eternia colours.

Smyth's will carry MOTU Origins from Spring, there are a few things on their website. Hopefully they carry these minis too.

**Whiplash7** · January 15, 2021, 04:49pm

I found them today. Didn't know carded ones were a thing.
I picked up BA He-Man and Skeletor, Evil-Lyn, Stratos, and Ninjor. I left the Anti-Eternia stuff on the pegs.

Yes you're correct!!!

Only the Minis are exclusive to Toymaster stores.

I see this becoming a thing.

Good, more for me.

**Glasstor** · January 15, 2021, 08:38pm

So, the upc in the pic above seems to be Evil Lyn and this case at EE seems to be these carded versions (upc match):

Does other people’s research bring you to the same conclusion? I will never see these in my stores so I want to order the case but, want to make sure it’s correct.

Hmmm. Excellent legwork!

**Grayskull Guardsman** · January 16, 2021, 12:55am

I hope those AE figures are short packed, so they don't clog up the pegs. They ugly! I get that they are cheap repaints for Mattel, but that AE stuff needs to quit showing up so much.

I'd rather have Mini Comic pink Teela or the green Goddess as a repaint.

I’m a glutton for research. Lately, I’ve been trying to find shipping manifests so I can try to predict when stuff shows up. Things you do when you work from home...or attempt to. Lol

Here’s the assortment for the case at EE:

The more I think about it the more I think this carded wave is a different wave to the Slime Pit cases wave and we'll still get the Slime Pit cases wave. That Battle Armor HM and Skeletor will come with both these waves just like the regular HM and Skeletor came with both waves 1 & 2.
I also suspect the Slime Pit Buzz-Off and Zodac we've seen will come with the Slime Pit multipack.

That's what I always assumed. I think people were a bit too quick to jump to some 'dire' conclusions.
