Any news on when Mer Man and Stratos will be up for pre order?

I got He-man and Beastman as a gift from a friend and they're just so plain bagel. So glad for Revelations/Revolutions/New Eternia Masterverse.
I never liked Origins either. I bought a bunch on clearance to give as surprises to my daughter during COVID closures, but I don't collect them.
But, geez, the revisionist Smith Revelations takes on some characters are just . . . not my thing.
Also I have to say these two are looking fantastic. ???

Interesting... I still don't have any of them butcI like their look man... I need them in hand to make a better judgment. ???
I really like that Stratos, he looks almost perfect on that body and the head sculpt is spot on. I don't usually get excited about Stratos figures but the last Masterverse New Eternia and now this Origins Animated Stratos have been fantastic.
Merman on the other hand looks just ok but that head sculpt just ain't doing it for me, he looks weird and not that accurate. The rest of him is pretty good but just wish an alternative head came with him. Overall pretty darn happy with what I'm seeing from this subline to the Origins lineup.
As much as I'm happy so many people want the Toon Filmation figures, I'm going to play my tiny violin over the fact it seems pretty evident that the regular figure MOTUO line is now phased out for this and the Turtle mash-ups, I really hate the Mattelcreations route, but I guess that's how the non toon figures are going to be released going forward, All I wanted was to complete the original MOTU line in Origins, and we are getting there, but making me go through hoops to get them makes me sad.
Passing on the Stratos, but jumping on the Mer-man. That head is goofy as hell and I love it.

I knew she was coming. I just will believe she will be great when I see her.
I was sure we'd get a Masterverse Evil-Lyn worth something by now. I'm kind of sad I had to shift my hopes to a line I don't collect (although I did preorder Teela).

The other figure I'm holding out hope for is Sorceress, another character ruined by Revelations so who hasn't seen a decent figure in, well, ever (all the Classics versions have
She's been confirmed for this line. I'm betting that her and Ram Man are the next wave.
