MOTUC Subscription Update

MOTU: Jay Cochran - 2009.05.06

Mattel has released the following details in regards to their upcoming Masters of the Universe subscription program they will be making available on MattyCollector.com.

-The MOTU subscription program will be available May 18th through 22nd.

- You can purchase as many subscriptions as you want. Each subscription includes the Sept - Dec 2009 MOTUC figures

-Convention, rerelease and repaint figures are not included simply because not all fans may want the rereleases and convention figures may change in price or release date

-We will have a 2010 subscription for Jan - Dec 2010 figures in mid August with the same rules applying

-Once you purchase a subscription you are locked in (i.e. no refunds)

-Figures will continue to be revealed about three months ahead of time, so yes, if you buy a subscription you are agreeing to purchase which ever figure comes out that month even if not revealed yet

-Options will be available to be charged and have figures ship each month, or to have all figures held, shipped and be charged at the end of the year.

-Figures will also still be available to purchase each month with the standard limit of 10 (if you want more than 1 of a certain figure for example)

Find it @ Big Bad Toy Store - Ebay

At 20 for 12 figures comes out to about 240 before shipping. Not a bad deal I suppose but I don't feel comfortable committing to an entire year's worth figures without knowing what the next few ones will be 4-6 months from now. While I'm guaranteed to at least get one but would rather bu... read more

DOH! I forgot about NA being in here. Well, if I get any of those figures, I'll post em here for trade. The subscription will be the real test of demand I think. People will have to put up or shut up for the next year so Mattel will have a real gauge of who is willing to buy with these restr... read more

I am going to play with fire and just try on the 15th of every month. I would have preferred a preorder (even if it was 6 months in advance) over a subscription. I have no interest in 200x or New Adventures so I would hate to be stuck with a bunch of that stuff. The subscription is smart on Matte... read more

Damnit. Well, I do have a plan for handling Hordak, and even though he will still be crazy to access, MAA shouldn't cause as much of a ruckus.

Yeah, the subscription is for the September through December figures, so get out your laptop on the 15th of May, June, July, and August if you want those respective figures.

So....does that mean that Hordak and MAA will make the cut in time or is this only for the September-December figures? I ask because they said it would "include", not "it will be availiable for", so I don't know whether or not I need to be on my Laptop June 15th or not.
