>>11503079 (OP)I don't want a crowdfunded snake lair, I just want that snake horse thing.
So we got a lot of 200X reveals, Masterverse reveals, two MC Origins figures, and a ToG exclusive.
You think an SDCC panel will reveal more MotU Thundercats, it is it done at two retail waves?
>>11503079 (OP)I just noticed that the 2002's are Origins figures instead of Masterverse. Almost feels disappointing
>>11503099>Physically perfect siblings>Aren't revolted by incest because they didn't meet until adulthoodThe royal family is gonna get ruined in one generation
It's nice when the store resets and actually puts new things out
>>11503118>snake weapons rank off to the side>battle bones relief sculptureIron Maiden, too?
Das a cool horse snake thougj
>>11503105I don't think they wanted to saturate the MV anymore than they have now with NE, Vintage style, and the upcoming movie figures.
>>11503167Huh, it doesn't look like any of Dragon Horse's parts have reuse potential.
>>11503167Well, at least we know they have most of the tooling for Swift Wind figured out. Just need to smooth everything out and make it a single headed torso.
>>11503179It's part of a crowd fund, so they can splurge a little.
>>11503105Why did they give Mantenna red mittens and galoshes?
How would you feel if NECA was given the MotU license? Based on their long going TMNT line, I think it would be a good fit.
>>11503218We're getting a bunch of monster men with tan skin lately.
Imagine if they did a few Caucasian girls with monstrous heads and hands.
>>11503218>>11503221Man I love these sketch figures. My head canon makes them all new characters. Like this guy is just another of spikors people.
>>11503218>>11503221Who da fuck? Thatโs not Spikot?!?!
>>11503104Yeah I thought this too. Is there a separate Thundercats panel this weekend.
>>11503227And tails. SS Spikor, Stingor and Reptilax all have tan to orange skin with animals head, tail and often one freaky hand.
>>11503224Unlikely since Mattel has 7 in figures already on pegs. a 1/4 Heman and Skeletor would be insane though. Reporpuse the sculpts for Megator and Titus I'd be all over that.
From last thread. Boobies.
>>11503231It is Spikor. Sketchbook Series
>>11503218Sketchbook Porcupine Spikor?
>>11503224Na, too pricey and break too easy. NECA QC is really meh
>>11503237Sacred boobs
>>11503079 (OP)>SDCC Con Exclusve will be SKELE-SHREDDERMine already shipped!
>>11503230Headcanoning variants is nice and all, but I'd still really like them to start cranking out the unique characters
Fuck Thundercats, we Transformers now
>>11503245>Na, too pricey and break too easy. NECA QC is really mehSounds like youโve never handled a NECA figure before.
>>11503262cmon man, finish TC first at least.
>>11503279>finish TC first at least.That's the joke...they already did
>Enjoy your two waves, no Thunderkittens or Mutants
>>11503278Got plenty of their horror figures which are fragile as fuck around the joints
>>11503262GI Joe to follow no doubt
>>11503180gasp, holy shit
>>11503262Which IG are these on?
>>11503105I find it funny how many people were confused.
>>11503218Hey look, brand new spiky bracelets. After they couldn't be assed to get it right with real Spikor.Overall, suprised by amount of new tooling.
>>11503232Reptilax has two normal hands but for some reason only one bracelet so they all have asymetrical arms.
>>11503230I name him Wretch-Hog.
>>11503221you know what they say
the bigger the hoops, the bigger the hoe
>>11503262this is getting out of control man
>>11503262So MAA can go full Bee but no Mega mask for Skele? Weirdest crossover choice yet. He-Man Prime and Starscream <insert any Evil Warriors> for Wave 2 at Target?
>>11503301>https://www.instagram.com/masters/p/DMix0hES4eI/Heroes will rise. Villains will clash. Worlds will never be the same.
The most unlikely crossover in the universe is here. For the first time ever, iconic Masters of the Universe characters don Transformers armor to become Megatron Armor Skeletor and Bumblebee Armor Man-At-Arms.
By the Power of Grayskull, letโs roll out! Pre-sale starts now.
Available at Target and MattelCreations.com
>>11503301Oh, okay then. I would have also taken the Stanger Things approach. So for Hemanus Prime who should be the evil character mashups? Starscream, Soundwave, Shockwave? Trapjaw, Merman, Beastman?
But we're on double dips already. It is Lion-O and Panthro variants next with purple battle cat man
>>11503301MOTU getting toy STDs from fucking everyone
Megatron Skeletor and Bumblebee Man-At-Arms are $33 each, what the hell is that? They're up for preorder at Target, too.
>>11503301>Thought I wouldn't be into any of the other collab stuff>This shows up Goddammit. I might pass, I kind of don't want them.
Thank god I just got a big target gift card, cause man. $33?
>>11503284>fragile as fuck around the jointsWhy do you make stuff up?
>>11503335>>11503340Markups based on what they think Tariffs will likely be or just pure greed. Sketchbook Grayskull was $50 more. Subtract $20 for the figure and $10 for the Mat, it's still a $20 markup.
They'll probably make it to stores and go on sale for $20-25 at some point.
>>11503318>>11503323Double dipping just to have MOTU versions since the first ones are going to be classic only in the collection
>>11503318>>11503323So these don't come with the alt parts then? Maybe part of a multipack?
>>11503306Evil-Lyn Starscream would be the best choice, but they probably want only bulky male bodies to hold up the armor.
>>11503354>Double dipping just to have MOTU versions since the first ones are going to be classic only in the collectionYou could have just bought first ones twice, you dont really need new versions for that.
>>11503367but you get a new set of colored armor with the new ones.
>>11503366Then again, if I can think of the biggest backstabber in MOTU, it'd be Evil-Lyn.
>>11503284They aren't though. The fuck are you on about?
>>11503245Actually they don't. You're way out of date on your ignorant opinion.
>necatard having a melty again
lol
>>11503285Origins/CC?
The only thing I don't like about this is that I already bought CC She-Ra, so I'll have a loose one I have to sell.
kindly fuck off back to your containment thread necanon
>>11503391Cartoon Collection, cloth cape, MC Club Grayskull release in spetember.
>>11503262Just armor... pass.
>>11503318>>11503323After getting a ton of Turtles of Grayskull, I think I'm going to pass on this crossover except for Battle Cat and Panthor. I don't see where they're going with it if there are 2 Lion-Os and 2 Panthors in the first 10.
MOTU is the new toy whore.
>>11503399You are a sad, strange, pathetic little man.
Lookin good. Better not be more than $125 though.
>>11503413>he thinks that's proof of anythingNewfag
>>11503420Concession accepted.
>>11503418It looks much better, but honestly, its still too fancy to feel like its actually a vintage playset.
Huh. They actually made Snake Lair cool.
Shame it will never be released becase fucking 300$, no way.
>>11503422No concession given. Take your meds.
>>11503418I would pay $125 for this. $150 if it comes with the snake horse.
>>11503427>still no argumentGlad you've reaffirmed your concession. Now run along little guy, cry more to someone who cares.
>>11503429Good price, honestly
>>11503429$300 is insane.
>>11503431You've sunk fully into your delsions, you've completely lost your grasp on reality, and now you're talking gobberish. How sad!
>>11503429I see no reason at all this should cost twice as much as (the new price of) Castle Grayskull.
>>11503413Yes, because you totally didnโt just use inspect element.
And you just further prove youโre a troll with that filename.
>>11503435yea, its why they had that poll after the backlash from the first time around. No one wanted to pay $300.
>>11503442If it came with the Snake Horse and one pack-in figure, I could see $155. So it needs... 7 x $20 = $140... 8 pack-in figures to justify the price.
>>11503413>the admitted troll says
And just think, we still have the Mattel Creations panel tomorrow.
Not that we'll get as much spammed as we did today, but I'd guess bare minimum we'll see the next Club Grayskull figure.
>>11503285>>11503307>>11503318>mfw>>11503519Can't wait
Hoping for Plasmar, Strobo, and some comic and/or CC unique characters.
>>Get SsSsssum, Get sSSsssum
>>Hey, MOM SsssSaysssS it'ssSs my turn on the turret
>>You damn KidssSss I'm truing to work here
>>11503429For that price I want the cancelled bigger version.
>>11503262>YFW MOTU X Power Rangers collab nextSince He-Man is going to be red and Teela likely pink, who also getting rangerfied?
And besides Zedd-ator, Repulsa-Lyn, and likely Beastdar, what monstera are the Evil Warriors getting merged with?
>>Have a nice trip, ssSssee you next fall
>>11503530They better be reissuing Camo Khan if they're using him in advertisement for this.
So no movie figures reveals? This is all?
>>11503335>>11503340Skeletron
Man-at-Swarms
>>11503567At 10,000 buys of $300 (Before tax and shipping, possibly tarrifs as well) a pop that means they are holding the snake horse hostage for $3 million dollars.
>>11503567Why would I want Lady Sltiher as a skeleton
>We added a fully detachable Rattle Trap vehicle, also a first-time creation for the line.
Where?
>>11503567Mattel doesn't even give you all the unlocks like Hasbro does, which is super fucking gay.
>>11503539Blue Duncan (smart guy)
Black Clamp Champ
Yellow... uh, Bowena
Tri-Klops Finster
Hordak Goldar
Scorpina before making a 5.5" Scorpia
>>11503593Probably copy/pasted from the first version of the Snake Lair that did include it they forgot to take out.
they are fucking idiots and seem to think these projects need $300 baseline prices
this is an $80 playset at retail, it should be $160 max
>>11503564Too soon for that.
Movie figures wouldn't go on sale until Spring next year, so Toy Fair is more appropriate to reveal them
>>11503611Don't see you running a toy company
>>11503618I'm not sure what that has to do with this project inevitably failing again but okay.
>>11503534LADY SLITHER, THIS IS A TOY LINE FOR AGES 6+, LEAVE MOSS MAN ALONE
>>11503567It's over 500 loonies before shipping.
Oh Mattel you are absolute sweeties. I had fun considering this for a few hours.
>>11503539CGI MotU x Power Rangers would be appropriate I think
Red Adam
Pink Teela
Blue Duncan
Yellow Krass
Black Stratos
Battle Zord
Alpha Ork-0
>>11503618Axel, we liked the new snake house but daddy Mattel is asking far too much. It's going to fail because they wanted $300 for the giant ass shelf busting one. Now they want the same for a slimmed down version.
>if you just started your own KO snake line, you have a better chance of seeing this get made
>>11503652>Open Dimensions: 34โ W x 27โ L x 31โ H (86.36 x 68.58 x 78.74 cm) In what way is this slimmed down?
>>11503671Come on man. The old one was three sections, plus a vehicle.
>>11503118This thing looks nice, i really want that lady slither and horse. Like, i may start stacking nickels so i can get one.
>>11503124>>11503128>>11503130Theres an rvd and a few others too i think.
>>11503221>>11503218Huh, looks idk, its not what i imagined i guess.
>>11503237Hell yeah
>>11503262Sharks being jumped and cousin oliver is coming to visit.
>>11503320Ive never just flat out disliked an origin figure but i guess its finally happened. Its cool if you like it but its the worst idea ive seen in origins imo.
>>11503567$300 AND you aren't even guaranteed the cool horse?!
Why not sell it for $175 or whatever then put the other figures up for sale on Mattel Creations after it passes funding? That way everyone is happy. The price is still absurd, but at least we can get the figures separately.
>>11503584Cause its bad ass and no one will make skeleton warriors? I think its pretty cool, almost as cool as the dragon but shes using that same old body ive become dis interested in.
>>11503284If they do a MOTU X G.I.Joe crossover, expect Queen Marlena to play a big part and be former colleagues with Countdown and Payload. Also this is the only way to get the Astronaut Joes.
>>11503671>In what way is this slimmed down?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzTwLVre2Uc
>We love Filmation, and that's going to keep going
>>11503732>Theres an rvd and a few others too i think.RVD, The Steiners tag team, and The Hurricane (Shane Helms) which were shown off at Wrestlemania along with Series 15 (The Animal, Nikolai Volkoff, Ultimate Warrior, and Stone Cold in jorts) which just started to appear on eBay from Cali.
>>11503567>Lady Slighter Skelly - $40>Pastor Pytonus - $20>Snek Horse - $40>Lair - $200!!!That is not a $200 playset. TF were they thinking?
>>11503759>Motu xxx GI Joes. Expect Queen Marlena to play with the big parts of her former colleagues Cumdown and Gayload. Also this is the only way to get Astronaut Gape
>>11503806>Masterverse Dragstor will actually be functionalHoly fucking based. I expected this with Origins, but MV too?!
Guys, I may be a johnny come lately, but I'm gonna jump on the MV train, that sold me
>>11503830That is really cool.
Honestly that Keldor and AE He-Man got me back on MV train.
Really wish I hadn't missed Battle Armor Skelly and Snake Teela now.
>>11503823And that's even a best case scenario that it even funds the full 10,000. If this thing sells like 6,125 units you're not getting the other figure or horse and still paying $300. If you back it anywhere from 8/16 - the end of the campaign and it funds past 6,000 but less than 8,000 you're not getting anything but the playset for $300.
>>11503340>>11503335these look like dogshit and my transformers friends are laughing at me
I'm sure they'll get to the minimum of 6000 no problem and it'll technically be a success given how many in this fandom just run on "consume product then get excited for next product".
And I kinda hope it does just because I'd like to see them keep doing crowd funds, just put of curiosity to see what they choose for campaigns
>>11503218>>11503221I don't know why it took me so long, but I only just realized why he looks so familiar...he looks like Pig Head
>>11503284Sexy G.I.Joe and Cobra females in scantily clad and torn clothing on Eternia.
Sign me up!
>>11503954You can look similar to something without being a 1:1 carbon copy.
They got the pig snouts, the yellow eyes and the tusks out the corner of their mouths, id say that's similar enough that they could be related
>>11503966He looks more like a hedgehog than a pig to me.
"Mean Gene has confirmed that Hulk Hogan has reached the gate. Good luck, Hulkster! You're going to need it."
I went to Target and got the Sketchbook Syclone, AND they had the Thundercats in stock too! And they were $20 each (not $25 like I saw online)!
>>11503335>>11503340I was pleasantly surprised by these, and I hope we see Optimus He-man, but man I really hope the hasbro side of things is still working on a MOTU collab. I was hoping for actual transformable MOTU toys.
>>11503251Every major crossover since Rulers of the Sun should have made a concerted effort to include one of these guys in those waves. FFS ToG introduced that April body that would be perfect for Merryman Pochahontas!
Not to mention how easily realized Buzzard-Man, Witch Bitch, Proto-Octavia, and Ski Yeti would be with existing parts.
>>11504087Hasbro will do something. Just like their hot wheels collab, they let Hot Wheels make an Optimus Prime, and now they're turning notable Hot Wheels cars into Transformers.
cee

>>11503175Your post reminded me of pic related. We need a Sneg version of this.
>>11504102>Witch BitchIs she rich? Does she itch? On the quidditch pitch?
>>11504110Well just two cars for now. Hasbro could have done a few more imo but they seem to be dragging their feet alot these days.
>>11503567>$300 still>unachievable unlockslol. lmao even
>>11503567>tfw you only want the Two-Headed Steed$300 is nuts.
>tfw your WWEternia Hulk and Megatron Skeletor team up against mutant He-Man and Battle Cat-Man and fight over a prototype-inspired Castle Grayskull
my mother had such hopes for me
>>11504087there's definitely gonna be another pack or it would have had optimus instead of bee
>>11504087You sure about that? You're really sure about that?
>>11504270I still have hope for an Optimus Prime Attak Trak. Then MAA will be the perfect pilot. (Alongside Battle Cat Man)
>>11504270to clarify I want what
>>11504332 is suggesting. Make the vehicles and mounts into transformers. You could maybe get away with a Skeletor that transforms into his hot wheels car, but I'd rather see the Landshark or Gygor become robots. Gygor especially. Just retool Optimus Primal!
The comments on Pixel Dan's two videos about Snake Lair are overwhelmingly negative. Any chance of another round of Survey Time when the new week starts?
>>11504400I wish it came with a recolor of Duncan in mid-transformation into a Snake Man.
>>11504400I think they're more likely to just write it off as a loss at this point. They didn't seem to take all the complaints to heart; its still too detailed to be a vintage playset, there's still too much shit included driving up the price.
>>11504485>They didn't seem to take all the complaints to heartThe only complaint they heard was retail Fright Zone. The rest definitely fell on deaf ears. Same with the uninspired price gouge crossover of TFs.They thought this was going to be easy ToG early waves money.
>>11502864>>11503118As a Snakefag, this makes me happier than the initial prototype.
>Two Headed dragonBeautiful
>High Priest PythonusWe knew he was coming after the Battle for Eternia pack, but I'm glad he's been relegated to pack-in status so the snake haters can't complain about him taking up a precious slot in the figure schedule
Here's what Morbius' staff will look like in the movie.
>>11503079 (OP)>Sketchbook Hordak and Grizzlor are available at Targetat least at my Target they have this set(along with some other MOTU Origins stuff) at an absurdly low clearance price(it was like $8.99)
>>11503118It looks great, glad they went back and redesigned it. My vintage Snake Men are finally going to have a home!
>>11503175>Also, this faggotSo he's an Egyptian styled snake priest? I hate how his scales just stop at his waist. He's less shit than Skeleton Slither but it's a close race to the bottom.
>>11503167The Snorse is fucking awesome and the only pack in I want so of course he's the 10,000 unlock that we'll never reach. I really wish it was Stretch Neck and the Snorse instead of another pair of obscure Axel OC's. Hopefully they'll release it as an MC exclusive creature before the line ends. My King Hiss needs his royal steed!
>>11503635>It's over 500 loonies before shipping.Fucking brutal, but unlike Eternia I know I'll regret passing on this so I might have to just swallow the cost. Hopefully I can sell the pack in figures to some anon who cares about them.
>>11504350>>11504270I want a Battle Cat Tigatron. Gygor Prime. Etc. Shit like that.
Man I actually loved Skeletor Megatron. I'd have bought them all if they were retail though. (No targets in Canada lol.) This price is nuts. I'm out. They almost had me back but I'm out fuck you lol.
There's a lot of good shit coming out dont get me.wrong but I feel like if I get into 200x I will get fucked and miss out on an exclusive that I really want too.
>>11503823>>11503442>>11503454If you guys really compare this new snake lair to grayskull and snake mountain you see a world of difference. Theres a ton more detailing with lots of additional individually molded pieces, inner walls on the inside, more and more intricate action features like the rubberized snake pit, snake periscope, and double drawbridge/opening gate with various metal chains throughout. Theres also noticably more paint detailing. It's the same *size* but the details are what's costing money I think. $300 is a lot, but feels about right IF it has all the unlocks.
Now whether you like how the set looks with all this extra effort or if you'd prefer it to be more in line with simpler vintage sensibilities is another matter, but in terms of production cost it seems fair ish.
More collabs, outrageus prices and cheap repaints. Still underwhelmed by everything but 200X.
Looking at the unlocks, I can't help but think they looked at the Eternia sale, and took the lesson "they all wanted Moaty, so once they unlocked him they all gave up and didn't want Keclar so we never reached 10k...so THIS time, 'Moaty' (the dragon) will be the final tier and 'Keclar' (snake Nepthu) will be the midtier so they'll HAVE to reach 10k+"
>>11504745>$300 is a lot, but feels about right IF it has all the unlocks.Let's pretend the set is priced fairly, even though it's not. My problem is that it still looks bad aesthetically. Rather than putting all kinds of gadgets and doodads and fancy reliefs on the inside, they could have spent half as much time and money making the outside look cool and unique. Compare this new version to an amateur mockup of the original concept art. The new playset is flat, narrow, boxy, and boring. Gone are all the fun little nooks and crevasses, replaced with straight stone walls like every other castle playset. The biggest tragedy for me was the loss of the grand stairway. That feature was very unique, and I would have loved posing figures climbing, falling, and dangling from those steps.
At the end of the day, all I really wanted was a fun playset that looked like a ruined jungle temple. Well, itโs been ruined alright, just not the way I was hoping.
When you think about it, Power Rangers is one of the crossovers that makes the most sense given it's pretty much the same thing as MOTU.
>Unique heroes, one even has a transformation sequence with everyone getting one in the Netflix CGI show, with colorful vehicles do battle against a hammy, staff-weilding evil overlord and his/her colorful flunkies.
The Masters and Rangers even have a spiritual advisor and a comic relief "sidekick".
>>11504643I don't get why they'd go with a weird Lady Slither variant in the first place.
We already have a lady Slither and id imagine most folks would want to display the normal version with this set so this thing isn't exactly a major enticement. Why wouldn't you go with a new character? Youve got options, the Medusa snake goddess, stretch neck, any of those minicomic snakes from the minicomic reptilax came from, that chameleon man
>>11504790>Power Rangers is one of the crossovers that makes the most sense given it's pretty much the same thing as MOTUthankfully power rangers is dead
>>11504662At this point its next to impossible to choose the best Skeletor. We're spoiled for choice and every crossover brings us a cooler one than the last. Still I wish we'd gotten Discotor and Leotor by now.
>>11504797So is Thundercats.
>>11504812>power rangers is just a wholesome little kino
>>11504814At least the series isn't based around a gimmick that's nothing without it (Transformers).
>>11504751>underwhelmed by everything but 200X.Origins fanboys are really determined not to give Masterverse an inch, aren't they?
You can't tell me these new Horde figures aren't cool
>>11504751cool, a faggot boomer
>>11504841>includes moss man in the horde collageWhat did anon mean by this?
>>11504780A functional grand stairway unlike Snake Mountain (except on my beloved Mega Construx version) would have been great.
>>11504843Cool, a discord tranny
>>11504855It's a collage of new Masterverse not just the Horde.
Does anyone remember that Anon's prediction that no one would be satisfied with SDCC reveals? Looks like he was the most accurate prediction.
>>11504841Yes, those Horde figures and AE He-Man all look amazing.
I'm just not in a place in my life where I can start collecting 7" action figures after buying into Origins.
If I'd already been collecting other lines in scale with Masterverse, or both lines started when I had a child old enough to express a preference (and it wasn't "He-Man isn't cool, Dad, play dolls with me"), I might be looking to mash a preorder button ASAP.
>>11504841No, no, New Eternia keeps up good work. Its just Im more Origins guy.
>>11504843Cool enjoy 300 for Snake Lair and repainted Lion-O. Eat your slop like a good piggy.
*tap tap tap tap*
I just preordered a $92 horde playset and spent another $72 on transformer/heman figures after shipping and tax. I'm not interested in a starting price of $300 for a playset that has more useless fucking snakes. I have a bin of motu snakes I'm waiting to sell when their value goes up. I keep them segregated from my other figures so I don't have to look at them. I'm not buying more, Mattel. Fuck you.
Dear Mattel,
I will not pay $300 to crowdfund your Snake Lair.
How about $300 to crowdfund a bunch of PoP Cartoon Collection figures? You do your tiers and if enough people pay, it ends up being 15 figures?
>>11504877Psst, hey, Anon...
>You are now aware that the 200x refresh means that next year will be "Rise of the Snakemen Part II"
>>11503534*despair, but also erection*
>>11504877The snakes are ok. It just feels a little bit dull since just another snake character. The Horde on the other hand got a Scorpion Man! A SCORPION!
>>11504864I already got two of my wants revealed, and I want that Masterverse Dragstor. If they show more good Origins figures today I will be satisfied.
>>11502810That would be grand but right now we're not even close assembling any of those Classics class photos, based on vintage teams.
>>11504950El General, my favorite snakeman.
Considering they already did it with Tuvar and Baddrah, Mattel should just make more non-existing Filmation designs and try to sell us Cartoon Collection Clamp Champ or Cartoon Collection Stinkor.
>>11504962Lowkey, he's the most unexpected pleasant surprise.
I shit on Axel alot, and I'll even say that the box art tease for him made me groan...but seeing him in figure form I like him way more than I would've thought.
Apparently there will be more Filmation. I wonder if theyre planning more waves in stores or are you going to have to MC and order for exclusive right to get something like CC Fisto. (FisToon?) It will feel funny.
>>11504841So why do you think Mantenna has 6 eyes?
Ones pair is regular, one pair is bloodshot, and the third? It could be that one pair cant be removed from stalks but I doubt that's it.
>>11503830>I may be a johnny come lately, but I'm gonna jump on the MV trainJust remember you don't have to buy every MV figure. Unless you want to, but you can just buy the figures you like, even if it's just one.
I'm just putting this out there for the folks that might have wanted to get into MV but don't think they have the space/money to collect the full line and so won't grab anything. If you just grab one figure, that's a win for you, and for Mattel seeing the line succeeding at retail.
>>11504745>$300 is a lot, but feels about right IF it has all the unlocks.Big if when it's unlikely to reach the unlocks and many won't want to bid in the first week when the Queen is the Early Bird reward. We all saw the complaining about Rev King Grayskull Early Bird last time when latecomers finally joined. That was a whole mess they shouldn't have repeated.
>>11504780>My problem is that it still looks bad aesthetically.The new design has no soul The original pitch had issues like those heads over the stairs but the new design feels so boxy. They just took their pitch from last year and reshaped it into a vintage building but it's fucking ugly. Rather has the previous version at this point. Plus the inside is basically the same unwanted crap from last year which I didn't care for at all.
Can this even close up? Because it doesn't look like it without removing the interior. Grayskull and Snake Mountain can seal with the insides in place. GS and SM have MUCH more depth to their playsets while this looks very shallow. Areas like the entrance extending inside with no floor looks really bad. The snake trap pit being rubber means it'll possibly get tacky or rip. Did they learn nothing from the push back during Street Sharks and all of the complaints about cracked rubber forming out of the box?
Want the Priest, will not back if they don't at least lower the price and make the figures guaranteed. Not gonna have FOMO over a single snake.
