I haven't been able to find Moss Man yet, but I did get Point Dread/Talon Fighter at Walmart today. I was tempted to buy a couple $8 Rotons on clearance, but I think the one I already have is enough.

I saw on IG today that She-Ra, Mer-Man, Zodac, and Tri-Klops are going up for preorder soon and will be out in February and April 2024.

Found Moss Man tonight. The price is ridiculous on it but I wasn’t going to pass because I don’t trust Walmart. I’m glad they did it right but we are certainly paying for it.
And yeah, if you want a Roton or Stridor, this is your moment. Walmart is giving them away. That’s why I’m still trying to be patient on Point Dread.

If I saw Point Dread in person (or Snake Mountain when it lands), I'd probably impulse buy.
For now, my near-complete vintage versions of each will do.
And if I ever saw Roton or Stridor for the clearance prices I see mentioned online, I'd definitely buy them. But so far Stridor was only slightly discounted and Roton wasn't marked down at all, so I don't have them (Origins or vintage).
So much inconsistency between locations...

The $8 Rotons I saw weren't tagged at all. I used the Walmart app to scan the barcode and it showed the lower price from that store. |

 Found Moss Man today. I was going to get my usual 2 until I saw that it was a whopping $40. What the hell are they thinking with that price for one figure? I knew it would be more than $20, but not double. |

I knew it would be more than $20, but not double. It makes no sense to me because Panthor was flocked and he was $40 but Battle Cat was $25 or $30 (can't remember) unflocked. This figure should be no more than $30, and they should have pulled the extra accessories and fancy packaging if that's contributing. I feel like they threw those in anyway to try to justify the ridiculous price. |

I feel like they threw those in anyway to try to justify the ridiculous price. Exactly what I was thinking. We didn't need the fancy packaging at all, in fact, I would have much preferred the standard packaging. $30 is what I thought it would be, too. |

The only way I'd have wanted this packaging is if all the MC exclusives were packaged the same. This says "Collectors Edition" like it's part of a series instead of just a one-off we won't likely see again for other figures. So I'd have preferred the standard packaging, too. |

Fang-Or goes up for sale today at noon EST (about two hours from now). I'm gonna try for him, but there seems to be a lot of hype around him, so I'm not holding my breath.

Looks like they made a decent amount of Fang-Or. I was able to get one and it's still available.

I had to drive 45 miles away, but I finally got a Moss Man. Also got 3 Fang-Ors.

I totally blanked Fang-Or today, and I'm pretty pissed at myself for it. Was really looking forward to this one, too. Oh well, hopefully the secondary price won't be too painful.

I had 3 hours to remember and didn't. I'm usually good with that, but not this time. Oh well, there will be more. |

My Target has the Sun-Man/Pig-Head/Space Sumo 3pack on clearance for $15.
I was tempted, but I have no real affinity or connection to these characters, even with the MOTU association.
I only would have bought it because it was a cheap set of random superheroes.

Not sure if anyone else got these, but I had to have them. The three Ramen heads. I think they’re massive upgrades. Super7:  Masterverse:  This is the Origins head. He put it on the 200x He-man but I don’t have that one. So I threw it on here to see what it looks like. I’ll tuck it away in hopes we get an Origins movie figure.  |
