Matty PKE Meter is coming back on 7/2!

"Toy Fans,

One of the questions I get asked the most is “Matty, I missed the XYZ when it was on sale! When will it be available again?” Well, in honor of the biggest event of the year, San Diego Comic-Con, we’ve gathered together a few we’ve heard you asking for and we’re offering them once again during our SDCC’s Most-Wanted Sale!

The sale will run from July 2 at 9 a.m. through July 31 at 11:59 p.m., or for as long as stock lasts. It’s been awhile since most of them were available and quantities on some are extremely low. As always, we recommend you shop early so you’re sure to get the ones you really want. Just look at this list… no, your eyes do not deceive you. Just in time for Halloween costume planning, that really is the PKE Meter prop replica at the top!"

I missed out the first time, I plan on grabbing this for Halloween. :slight_smile:

Hey are they going to change the sound the pke makes?

why would they?

I’m pretty certain that this is not a re-release of new PKE Meters.

This is them selling what is left over.

I would love the movie sounds to be on it

Well they said earlier in the year the price increase was to cover the rising cost of materials-- which would make no sense if it was original stock.

Whether they’re new or not there won’t be any changes though.

guess you dont follow matty, they have done this with other figures, such as the Ray w/ no ghost logo and Pete with proton stream. This is common practice with matty and by that I mean bleed you dry. We will never know if its true or not.

Ooooh… maybe I’ll have to do some more holsters!? :wink:

all i know is i am gonna order a pke meter and a venkman figure. got to start my collections at some point.

one more thing. do i have to register with matty collector to be able to order these items on the 2nd or just go on and order like normal?

I had the same question. I registered for their forum… But that is the only place I could find to sign up.

I believe you can make an account when your going though the checkout process.

I would love one of these, just ■■■■ that they don’t ship to the UK :frowning:

thanks for the reply. i really really really want to place an order for one of these pke meters. now one more stupid question. i noticed the statement from matty said the sale started july 2nd at 9am pt and 12 et. i;m in ontario canada and so i am gonna take it that the sale would start for me at noon. am i correct on this info?

This may be of help to people trying to unsnarl time zones:

Would anybody in the US be willing to buy one of these on my behalf and ship to me in the UK? More than happy to pay upfront before the sale commences so nobody is out of pocket?

Absolutely desperate for a PKE!

New product page is up with a $70 price tag (still has original release/ship dates):

thats awesome. i noticed it says it releases 12/1 with a shippind date of 12/12. i hope this is totally wrong cuz doesn’t that make it december? or did i read something wrong cuz i’m looking forward to ordering this on the 2nd of july.

Those are dates from the first run that they forgot to update/remove.

The PKE’s are for sale on 7/2. Yet again, the timing cannot be worse for me…but I guess I’ll have to pay my rent or whatever. Hmmm PKE or being homeless? …tough call.
