    You Know it really is Wolfie..., even more so to some of the Degree's of *****ing that I read. But man ..., They have been selling these things for 14Months Now .... Like 18 if you count King Grey Skull. Thier Damn site is Always Completely Butt-Screwed... People have Consistantly asked, Pleaded , complain and Suggested a Smaller Amount you can order, so that these can get into collector's Hands instead of Scalper's hands on Ebay Since this Line was 1st Launched and Skeletor Went on Sale.

    I think it's Extremely Disapointing on Many Different level's that Mattel has Ignored these Requests,.. and Seem to Cater to the Act's of Enabling Scalper's to do what they do with them.

    If Mattel Really Gave a Damn About thier Fan's ..., they Woulda Lowered That Minium Amount you could Purchased, to at least 4 ( I mean unless your selling them or trying to make a Fast Buck,.. you can't tell me you need more than that) And they would have Most Difinately fixed thier site , to where it doesn't get bogged Down with Traffic. And then there is No Flipp'in Way ..., once you have something in your Cart, Waiting for THIER Sever to load to the next page,.. should you ever Loose the Item you are tring to purchase ..., and then with that Cluster,.. you have to go back, erase the Item ..., and then guess what ? ... You just also got Screwed outta the other Item you Have.

    Extremely Pi-- Poor Buisness Practices if you ask Me.

    And Guess what ?
    Toyfare will Run Both TrapJaw and Battle Cat Next Month in thier Top "10" toy's . Gimme a Flipp'in Break here ..., I believe they are Perposely Screwing over the Fan Base..., and they Absolutely Know what they are doing. They are Creating the "Allure and Attraction" with this other Crap..., They don't understand..., it's not needed.

        Toyguru posted, at matty collector, that do to the fast sellouts Trap Jaw and Battle Cat are already going back into production. It's still nuts over there right now. People are ranting, raving and swearing like lunatics. It's embarassing as a MOTU fan. People really need to chill the heck out.

Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

              is it too costly to get more servers to handle the traffic?

                      Well ... you must be very, very patient.
                      These will never be at ToysRus ..., atleast not the 1's that are Matty's site ... There is a couple of DC/MOTU Comming to TRU ..., But I suppose..., you will still have to be Patient for the rest of the line to be released in Retail.

                        Like BK said it has been collectors of the line like us who have been there since the start, I have invested lots in this line and been through tons of bull it seems almost every month. This line even says for the adult collector so why not limit the first day purchase? I also think something happened they are not telling us. With the upped production numbers there is no way this figure sold out as fast as they say. I think they only got part of the shipment AGAIN and don't want to admit that. Why else say it has already gone back into production?

                          I think they are trying to force enrolling in the club eternia so if you want battle cat (or pathor) or whomever you'll also have to get shera hero etc

                              Club Eternia will start again for the New Yr.

                              ... I think alot is actually going on here with the Product... that seems to Not be said or addressed. I read some Of this Toy Guru's Posts ...., And it totally smells like a Complete SmokeScreen to direct people else where's ....

                              He did State that Hardly anyone order's 10 of a Product...., which I dunno if I believe, based on ebay sales ...., He also said something about when the Minium order was only 4 ..., people wanted more so they gave it ...., Was the Order ever only 4 of something ? .... I don't ever remember seeing that, only 10... ever.

                              I dunno Like I said ..., there is more there , that they do not want the General Consumer to Know, or realize. They want this Madness every Month ..., they feel they need this Madness for the Line. The Title of Lady's Thread, is very, very Accurate imo.

                                I'm pretty sure Faker was limited to four. Maybe King Grayskull too, but I not totally sure on that.
