He seems like he has a better shot than most at a reissue. Partly because of the rarity and aftermarket price of his original figure, and I think even more so because he would complement a hypothetical Stridor repaint of Night Stalker. I could see him being released as a pack-in with Stridor, actually, to make the larger beast/vehicle more desirable.
Super 7's Skeletor seems to have the "monster" forearms and not the "finned" forearms. I like that. Keldor's head is a nice inclusion, but he never had claw feet. The cape is a welcome addition as it will match better withe Skeletor's shade of purple. I'm cool with it. I would like to see a reissue of Fisto and an improved reissue of the Sorceress with a more function and non-restrictive feather cape thing. Something that is flexible and thin like Shadow Weaver's arm cape thing, for example. A 200X Sorceress will be extremely welcome! I certainly hope so. They're going to make 8 Filmation figures? I didn't know that. If so, cool!
As much as I hate paying $15 more for each figure, I might just get them off BBTS. I really can't swing the $175 right now with everything else I collect (Hot Toys Deadpool should be hitting my card any day now, plus new Figuarts hit at the end of the month) + Black Friday sales looming. Putting a two week window on these right at one of the busiest shopping times of the year was a poor move, imo. The window should have at least been a month, but what hurts the most is them charging immediately for each figure. I get why they need to do that but that's super short notice to come up with almost $200 after shipping.
I'm going to preorder these through BBTS. I can't afford to order direct from Super 7 right now with the holidays looming. All my extra cash pretty much goes towards family stuff from October on (costumes and candy for Halloween, lots of food prep for Thanksgiving not to mention Black Friday sales and presents for Christmas). This was a poor time if year for Super 7 to put these up for preorder with such a small heads up. And such a tiny window to preorder too.
Mattycollector lowered the 12 inch to $45. ...took almost 2 years to get those down to where they should have been all along.
Cool packaging. So they are each coming with a mini comic it looks like. I decided to get Teela from BBTS also. Mattycollector has free shipping right now so I picked up Tuskador.
I actually don't like the packaging... not a big fan of collector's stuff coming on blister cards, especially when they have tons of accessories. I doubt the card will be resealable either. The artwork is cool but yea, I'm more of a box fan myself.
If this is a resealable blister card it's awesome. Hopefully it's like Mythic Legion and not like the current Matty cards.
Hopefully! The negative side of me is saying it's not to convince people to buy another set to keep MOC.
I like standard blister cards because you can keep the cardboard backer and chuck the rest. Good for space considerations. Not a fan of this box fad.
Retro packaging...damn that is tempting. glad I waited for black friday, got taskador with free shipping by getting evil seed. Really wanted Callix but appears sold out even though he is not listed as such.
I think I'll get Teela for a spare and Faker for the vintage styled head. As nice as Ram Man is, I think I'll settle with my original one. Not feeling that Skeletor as I've got 3-4 figures of him.
Grabbed Ultimate He-Man and Skeletor. Now for the wait Really hoping they'll do the Filmation re-issues as well.
