I saw the email, does this mean that Origins will be widely available outside of Walmart soon?

I’d say that’s a pretty good sign

[Barbecue17]

Some of the newer figures actually showed up at Target this week as well.

I preordered more toys than I've ever preordered at one time from BBTS this morning.

To paraphrase Anakin from Episode II: I preordered them. I preordered them all. They're preordered, every single one of them. And not just the figures, but the castles and the vehicles, too.

LOL that’s what I might try to do when I get my stimulus check

I pre-ordered everything but Castle Grayskull, I just dropped a big chunk of change on a vantage one. I also got a second She-Ra for my daughter.

[jburnett1975]

I agree no more Walmart no more bent all to crap cards hopefully

[Forcehunter]

No more Walmart! No more Walmart! No more Walmart! All my socialist money went into preorders. Ya see what happens when you make things accessible Mattel? You can get money.

[Krueger]

So Walmart really were holding the line to ransom. At least in the US.

That'll be one of the nice things about BBTS they really take care with how they pack things. Clean and unpunched cards for all!

[Spooked]

So is everyone just ordering one of each figure when they say they "just ordered everything"?

I ordered 2 each of my favorite 4 characters and called it good. I'd rather have an extra on order 'just in case' *crosses fingers*. I can only imagine the 3-digit totals for those of you who ordered entire multiple waves...

I got one of every thing and an extra She-Ra, yeah it was a lot.

I like to have extras of these, as I keep an extra "play" set of them for when my little niece visits, and I like to have extras for customs, too. With these, since it was so much stuff at once, I ordered one of most, but doubled up on several. I figure I can take my chances finding any extras I may need beyond that. It would have been nice to be able to just order three of everything, but I capped it where I did because the grand total was getting kinda scary!

[jburnett1975]

Think I will order my Grayskull from BBTS cause knowing Walmart they will ship it as is without putting it in another box and slap all the shipping labels all over it. Not to mention it the box will probably look like it was beat with a baseball bat

Yeah man, I couldn't sleep last night and caught it at like 3 AM EST. I'm not collecting the line but grabbed a Landshark. Mattel went out of their way to say "over sized" in the description so I'm hoping it's sort of a median scale to accommodate Classics figures. The vintage vehicles were laughably under scaled so I'm willing to give the Origins vehicle a lot of slack for scale. And those vintage styled boxes do help it go down nice and display MIB on a shelf. If early reviews say no good then I can always cancel for flip the vehicle.

It's nice not having to deal with Walmart exclusively for these items!

Yeah, lets hope Hasbro catches on with their toys too.

[Despondor]

I think I'll try to collect most of the line at retail, though there are a few I preordered from BBTS in case they're hard to find later, like Scareglow and the Battle Armor variants.

As of this moment, individual carded Scareglow is back in stock.

I didn’t know the land shark was gonna be oversized ? Your right they where a little small back in the day. I hope we actually get a Attack Track that actually looks like the one in the original cartoon

Yeah, per the copy on the BBTS page, Mattel’s wording I’m assuming, “ This large-scale model of Skeletor's iconic attack vehicle has ferocious jaws that chomp up and down as its wheels roll.” In the photo it looks like the Origins figure would have to reach forward to grasp the handles. I’m hoping this means that a Classics figure could sit all the way back and with arms at 90 degrees may hold the handles comfortably. I’ll keep an eye out for reviews. I wouldn’t expect this of the entire line but they’d double sales on any vintage vehicle or mount that Classics didn’t get to.

All I want is a friging Shark Tank with some friging laser beams!

Yeah. I’d actually prefer the Filmation Tracks to the vintage one, but would be content with either.

This was SUCH a fantastic day as a MOTU collector.

Big Bad Toy Store really came through!

[Brasco]

They have clamp champ now. Scare glow is back as well

[Hordak’s Emissary]

At this stage I’d appreciate an option to pay extra to be guaranteed your figures, not unlike a skip-queue ticket at a theme park.

[DadStrong]

I wonder what happens next wave I order if I order each figure seperately instead of the full wave.. Like many others I have gotten my single Faker and LoP Merman but not my full wave that were ordered mins apart.

Sounds like time for an experiment!

[Glasstor]

My Wind Raider finally hit my POL as well. I ordered on 1/15.

[banthafett]

I just had my loot shipped last week. So windraiders will sit until more stuff hits.

Still nothing on my 2x wave 5 sets.

I did order a 200x evil Lyn last week for my daughters bday and got it 2 days later. So it is bs that you can get seperate items, but not whole set.
