I went with Fright Zone and Doom Tower. It would be cool to know if either of those will come with a figure. |

I went Fright Zone and Doom Tower, as well. Really hoping for Fright Zone specifically. Snake Lair was right there for me but I think Doom Tower gets the aesthetic edge over it since the Lair is built a lot like Snake Mt/Grayskull.

Fright Zone is one of my picks. I'm torn between Doom Tower and Snake Lair for the second spot. I'd love to see all three get made (or all five for that matter).
I agree with some of the chatter online that the Fright Zone could be a regular release, priced at 80 to 100 dollars like Grayskull and Snake Mountain. Then we could get Doom Tower and Snake Lair as the next two crowdfunds.

I missed this by about a hour...I know they had 3 per order but I'm curious how many of these MOTU origins they make for these creations exclusives? Are these really more popular then the WWE retro creation exclusives that the last two sets are still available to order? I know both had their retail distribution issues but I don't get it. Is it all scalpers? |

I’ve always hoped that they produced more and went back in stock (yet to happen). |

I think they are more popular than the retros right now because of the resale aspect. eBay gets flooded with every Origins exclusive, and they sell for double their MC price a lot of times. Lady Slither doesn't have the fanbase of some MOTU figs, but I read about some people wanting three for the snake body for King Hiss or Fangor, so that may have contributed, too. Honestly, with the price, I thought she would last a few hours at least, but I was way wrong there. |

Received a FedEx label number for lady slither. I got mine today. I'm loving the quick shipments on this one and Fang-Or. Lady Slither is definitely awesome. I'm not big into the Snakemen, but this is an outstanding figure. My only complaint is the deco is a bit bland, and the belt/waste could have used some gold. I wish they'd have put this much effort into some other figures who have more of a history/fanbase (the snake body is really impressive, so I'd have loved an equivalent for a He-Man or Skeletor release where you can really make two figures from one release). |

Went to Walmart tonight and saw an Origins case on the pallet. Thinking it would be the Duplico set I grabbed it, but when I opened it it was the Spikor set with Sssqueeze, Serpent Claw Man-At-Arms, and Snake Men Infiltrator.
Tbh, I didn't even know this set was coming to Walmart, but im really glad I found it.

Sssqueeze is available at Mattel Creations if anyone needs it.

Looks like they're finally re-releasing Tri-Klops in the next Cartoon Wave along with another re-release that they aren't telling us who t is yet.
Anyone have an idea who it could be? I'm thinking maybe Faker or Zodac.

I'm thinking maybe Faker or Zodac. No idea but those are good guesses. Roboto maybe since he was also in Wave 3 with She-Ra, Mer-Man, and Zodac? Or Ninjor, but he's already on the way to online retailers, isn't he? Or Scare Glow if he's not getting the Ninjor treatment. Wave 3 and 4 figures make sense other than Stratos after the Wave 7 mess because these reissues started with She-Ra and Mer-Man. A hero and villain for each makes sense to me, too. Going through the 14 waves just now, I realized there are considerably more villains than heroes. I'd also say there are more villains that are desirable for reissues. |

They're always so much more colorful and creative. Yeah, Ninjor is up for preorder on EE. Also, King Randor and Webstor are getting re-releases, too. Wave 2 with Scareglow, Trap Jaw, Orko, and Man-E-Faces was re-released at Target last year, so I doubt it would be them. Did you hear about the MOTU/Stanger Things Origins crossover? Lol |

Never would have thought of it but it can only be good to cross over with something so freakin popular haha |

Did anyone end up getting the weird Skeltor/VeeFriends from Mattel Creations? I just couldn't bring myself to buy it. I don't care for the "VeeFriends" at all, and the price and packaging are both 👎
