...that makes 56 figures released in under a month...i honestly didn't expect this many releases this quickly ,and while i love having all these guys,part of me wishes they wouldn't ship anything new for like a month or so,as my wallet could use a break! but i know that Elite series 2,as well as some more Match-Up's at the very least will be hitting in February,so there's no rest for the wicked...but,damn....

Nope. I don't buy all of those figures anyways. So far I've only bought MVP, Evan and Kofi, but that's all I could find. The rest I want out of that list is in my signature.

it will eventually slow down. after elite series 2 i think i read somewhere that the elites will start coming out every two months, so that should help some because i know exactly what you mean. also basics and ppv lines may be coming out every month but i'm just going to get the ones i think look the best and for updated attires like miz in ppv series 2. it was a blast going around to all the stores hunting everything down and scooping up all of the 1 of 1000's i could find but it also blasted my wallet! things will slow down now and probably form some type of pattern instead of this current state of distribution chaos.

It doesn't bother me that they're puttong alot out, at the end the day your not being forced to buy them, if you choose to buy them when your low on cash then thats down to you. I've had to leave figures i wanted cos i didn't have the money or knew i would need the money later on for something important [eg food & bills].

I think that they are just letting us have a wide variety the first few months. I love it though. My collection is growing pretty good, I have almost every figure that I want.

I'm fine with this pace. I'm by no means a completist and quite a cherry picker so if 56 figures come out I'll prob only buy 7 or 8.

They've probably had the first few series' backed up and ready to go since they had to wait until January 1st.

they prob had to get the stuff out to make room for the new stuff to ship and stuff.

I still haven't seen series 2 of Basic or 2 packs yet, so we are still sort of on pace with what Mattel is supposed to be releasing at this time.

I think it's a good start for Mattel as they need to get product out there, however Iagree, would be nice to see them slow down a bit. I think we'll see that in the next few months

I just wish that whoever is distributing these figures for mattel was working on the DCUC line...
the should probably slow down a bit, they don't have much else lined up yet... though Toy Fair is just a couple of weeks away, so we'll get more then.

They can go as fast as they want. I will buy what I can afford which is the basic singles line.

Definitely. At the moment things are too fast paced i cant see myself staying up to date with it all.
