I think they would be more inclined to do the ghosts. But I’ll reserve judgement till I see some proto types.
Ah, shucks… I was really hoping for a Matty pack to tear apart…
Still, I hope they don’t botch the RGB figures; these have potential to be either really great or completely lackluster…
Matty is all about recycling sculpts as much as possible. I remember when they got the Back tot he Future license then specifically explained they wouldn’t do figures because they would require unique sculpts and there were no parts to reuse…
That doesn’t explain they’re heman line…
That actually perfectly explains the He-Man line. Lots of recycled parts in that line. Combined with the fact that diehard MOTU fans will buy just about anything Matty slops into it…they had a similar technique with the DC figures. You release a couple new molds, offset the expenses with figures made up of mostly old parts, then hope you can convince the fanbase to buy them in one lot (out of fear they’ll miss preorders on the one or two figures they actually want to buy.)
And the He-Man line may be a precursor to what we can expect to get. Seems Mattel is really wound up on these things.
2014 Masters of the Universe® Minis
These little figures (with the collect and connect Minis Castle Grayskull®) have caused a big commotion. We’ll have lots of options for fans to fill out their collections:
With little to no articulation, they can pop out 2 -3 characters and keep the cost down to $20 -$22 a set. Collect and Connect Firehouse! :roll:
