Masters of the Universe Classics Optikk = WANT!
Okay, Mattel. Let’s try and get things fixed and working so that when Optikk drops at Matty Collector I can get one. I haven’t bought one of these figures from you guys since last year, but if Optikk is accessible then he’s mine.
Mattel, one way you can fix your problems is to reduce the cap. Limit people to only five of each figure — not ten — and maybe more fans and fewer scalpers will get their hands on the toys. Since you (Mattel) seem determined to not increase runs to handle demand, take the easy route and just reduce the damned maximum that someone can order. That sounds to me like an easy fix. Does anyone now think this would help the fans get their hands on the toys?
Optikk looks great, but he’ll look even better if I can get one without hitting eBay and buying from a scalper.
“Evil knows no bounds, and the first Masters of the Universe® Classics figure from the “New Adventures†story line is a villain from the far-off Tri-Solar System! Fan-demanded Optikk â„¢, Space Mutant Spy for Skeletor®, receives an impressive depth of detail by the Four Horsemen. This fully articulated cycloptic cyborg touches down with original concept art and interchangeable heads with different eye colors (one brown, one green).”
Also make sure he doesn’t have two right hands when you ship him out: http://www.infinitehollywood.com/2010/03/optikk-sees-all-mattel-apparently.html
Phil, if you gotta have one, hit me up ahead of time. I have not been thwarted yet in my attempts to buy these guys.
I like your idea of a 5 toy limit.
I’ll definitely be trying my first
time also for a MOTU toy from
Matty Collector and so I hope
to miss all the horror stories
of things going wrong.
