Mattel announced its 2012 subscriptions: Club Eternia, Club Ecto-1, and the new Club Lion Force. (Is anyone else kind of amazed that Club Ecto-1 is still going?) Anyway, the Club Eternia sub includes a $60 item, and there’s a lot of speculation as to what that is. Many are suggesting Granamyr, though personally I’m hoping [...]
1.) Mario asks: In regards to the Voltron subscription, will the frequency of figures released be closer to MOTUC or Ghostbusters, & what will the price point be? You will just need to wait for SDCC to find out all the details. 2.) Snarf! Snarf! asks: Regarding the “little guys” in MOTUC… Figures that would [...]

All-in-one page link On a scale of 1 to 10, how excited are you for the Faceless One? For Battleground Teela? I’m a 4 on FO, 9 on BG Teela. That said, my excitement for BG Teela is less about the figure itself and more about the fact that she’s a figure from the 3-issue [...]
Damn, I love that art. Anyway, it’s time for another round of Ask Mattel. (I refuse to acknowledge a corporate mascot by name, nor pretend he actually exists.) My thoughts are in the blue boxes/captions. –PG 1.) Poe asks: Are there any plans to do more Arkham City figures beyond Batman and Two-Face in the [...]

I’m not going to go into my spiel about my general feelings on Mego-style figures–you [...]
