Really? I thought it was the following week. I guess they are going to get them back to their site and sort them out to see what they have first?
All I know is we were supposed to go this year and my wife had booked the hotel and car for us, but when I went to get the tickets all that was left was the Preview Night (Thursday) and Sunday. So I canceled the trip, because I was really just going to the Con so I could get the exclusives I wanted. But seeing Mattel has always done the lottery in the past for their exclusive. (Call out 2 ticket #'s and anyone who's # was between them could buy their exclusive) I decided there wasn't any guarantee we'd be in those ticket ranges and it wasn't worth the cost. Had I known they were going to offer this preorder (Before last weeks email) I'd have kept the trip and visited my Mom in Palm Desert for a few days. Oh well, we are going to book next year much sooner. lol

I will wake up to order on August 2nd, and probably order 2. 1 for me and 1 for my nephew. It won't be offered until Noon EST and more than likely the site will be swampped at that time so you'll have problems getting through. (it's happened every month they offer something new) It's a hastle, but so far knock on wook I've never had a problem with my orders. Isn't it August 2nd at 9am?

Anyone think his base will play the Ministry theme? I could be wrong but I think I remember reading somewhere that although it's in Entrance Greats packaging he will not come with a entrance music display stand.

If it does have the stand it will most likely play the current Undertaker theme! I'm just dying to get my hands on one, open it EXTREMELY carefully, and photograph the HELL out of it. Anyone think his base will play the Ministry theme? EDIT: Quick question, does anyone know if MattyCollector will have a limit on how many you can purchase? I'd hate for these to all be wiped out in a matter of minutes because of e-bay scalpers!

I know for a fact 80% of these figure sold wont be opened, which in a way annoyes me as I hate and dont see the point in collecting MOC. I really want this figure but dont know anybody that is going and wont have enough cash to get one off a scalper on ebay. I wish they released this in the legends line, just without the stand or the crazy packaging or a little print saying "adult collector". that way I could get my hands on one. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME MATTEL!! WHY!!!?!?!?!

I'm sure they probably have a set number set aside of these to be sold online after Comic Con, just be online when they go up for sale, and you can snag one at the $25 price. I'll probably keep mine loose, near the packaging. No way in Hell I won't get one.

Is there a pic of this Undertaker? From the posts I gather it's his Ministry gimmick. Admittedly I'm not an underweartaker fan, he's like a John Cena in terms of "looks" minus his American badass gimmick. What's so special about this SDCC one?

I have some information for those of you wanting one and going to buy from Matty on the 2nd, first SUGN UP TO THEIR SITE NOW! Their online distributer Digital River is horrible and with all the exclusives being put up there especially with the Masters Orko/Prince Adam 2 pack going on sale. Us He-Man fans every month go through the WSOD(white screen of death) in which the server is heavily clogged and you have to sit in a que and just wait and hope you can get figures, the 2nd will be 100x worse since it's Orko & Adam, not to mention Ghostbusters, all the DC, and Undertaker. If you think you can be patient and keep your anxiety down, then jump aboard, but if not, just wait until e-bay or an e-tailer has them for sale, I'm sure RSC will have a few.
