    By one cent over MSRP?!
    From what I've witnessed, I think only "some: of the exclusives were a little higher or marginally higher like Camo Khan.

    Then again, I'm fogging at the moment, so excuse me if I'm wrong... ;b

    Not talking about "exclusives" they have Snake Armor He-Man & 2002 MYP Skeletor for $18.99 when I bought them on Amazon for $12.99-$13.99 which is CHEAPER

    No what ****** me off is that retailers like Amazon & Wal-Mart LET secondary market companies sell figures that JUST came out or WILL come out soon go for $35-40 or more...

    $12.99-$13.99 is a mark down Amazon even said as much. As for the outrageously over priced offerings those are 3rd party sellers not Walmart or Amazon.

    They're on MC for $18.00, not $18.99 (please look it up), and the official MSRP is $17.99.

    MC doesn't seem to run a sale like Amazon.

    I know smart guy but what people are saying that prices are HIGHER on Mattel Creations...OK yea we know so then buy them elsewhere and who cares about Amazon marking them down or up they are CHEAPER last time I checked when I buy something that is $12.99 or $13.99 compared to $18.99 I'm saving money so don't buy from sites that do that...

    I do most of my purchases from BBTS, EE and Amazon, unless MC has their own exclusives or special releases like Duplico.

    My intention from my prior post is to correct your MC price claim, not to debate with you on where to purchase the figures from! LOL

    The whole forum thing is a waste of time anyways if you think about it... However talking with others who share the same interest in a social gathering/setting and exchange info is rather entertaining to a certain degree, more or less...

    I usually go with the flow and say to myself who gives a "flock" about what I say, but sometimes I do realize there are others who read this stuff other than the people who are engaged in these particular threads who could utilize some of this "useless" nonsense/info for their benefit.

    Well I give a "flock." And I wanna know where in the flock is Origins flocked Moss Man already? I mean flocking A man, this mystery listing/link floating around is just flocking ridiculous. How flocking hard is it for Walmart to list their flocking exclusive? Just add a picture to the mystery listing and put flocked Moss Man up for sale already! For flocks sake! I just hope he eventually becomes as easy to find as flocked Panthor, that flocking figure is in almost every flocking Walmart I see. And that's all I have to flocking say. Good flocking journey!

    That’s the flocking spirit!… Don’t worry, Moss Man is a few flocks away from being listed on flocking eBay, meanwhile keep counting those flocks on Panthor… ��

    Nice humblebrag that you got a Duplico order in.

    That's the one preorder I haven't got yet (and yes, it's as much agony as reasonably allowed in toy collecting).

    So at this point I guess it's safe to say that the majority of us are waiting on the Sun-Man three pack, Duplico, and Moss Man to show up.

    If you're a completist, then yes, those three and Snake Mountain. All should reasonably be easy to obtain, but there's no substituting for irrational completist stress when other people have a figure you can't find or order yet, ha.

    Try being almost twice that age and waiting for an articulated updated toy version of Catra. Tell her to get in line!

    Yep it seems like all I see now are photos of Frog Monger and Duplico in peoples' hands.

    I would have MUCH preferred to see more members of the Rebellion than so many Snake-themed characters...
