No mention of Retro Rayner in 7/15 Matty Press

REALLY Matty? You're giving Super Powers Stands publicity over Retro Rayner?
"This month it's all about MOTUC and DC…"

They are giving JLU STRIPE some public lovin' though.

Rayner's page is still here with the 7/15 release date.

yeah I noticed that when i checked earlier as well

Gonna be ticked if we don't get him. I can wait till Auguest if need-be but we better get him eventually.

[The Toyroom]

Matty just doesn't get it does he?

[pmwasson]

"Matty doesn't care about 8" people!"

[gillzManiju]

I was disappointed too. Hopefully it is still coming.

I would think that at this late date, he's already been made.

Isn't that what Kanye West says.

Actually, Kyle Raynor was the figure that I was looking forward to the least. I'd only buy him to continue to have a complete set.

I'd love to get my hands on the "last wave" but if those aren't coming out, I hope the line doesn't end with this oddball figure. So, if the last wave isn't coming out, then I'm crossing my fingers that Raynor's out of place dumbass isn't coming out either.

Q: I'm curious as to why there is no mention of the Retro-Action Kyle Rayner figure on sale July 15? Is this figure still going on sale but with no publicity or hype or is it being pulled?

A: We wanted to make some last minute adjustments to him to ensure he had a ring on his hand. So he will be pushed out a month or so. If you want to see more Retro figs we seriously suggest you support this figure.

Is Retro Kyle on Sale July 15th? - Topic

If you want to see more? Is that a hint that more are possible? Why aren't they straight with people?

[trekman101]

Because they are bean shooters

[ScottA]

I find it interesting that 5 figures have had rings and that's the reason they give. But if postponing this one and giving us the possibility of more, well then I'll take it.

[samurainoir]

well there's a hope in he'll then, even with John Stewart still hanging out two weeks later.

Let's see if Rayner can sell out.

As for the ring excuse, he does have those unique fingerless gloves.. So perhaps that is reflected in new hand sculpts for Rayner?

What also doesn't help is the fact that the Retro Figures are just buried at the bottom of the DCU page, well underneath classics and JLU product that has been sold out for years! Meanwhile movie masters are right there at the top in with the classics. There is no reason why retros can't be at the top of the page as current product. Massive marketing and sales fail. Is there any other product line page where new releases like the retros are buried like this? Don't make the customer scroll down to find the latest... It's a pretty cardinal rule that every other toyline on the site follows. MoTU, Ghostbusters etc all have the new releases at the top. Why are retros the exception to this?

mildly encouraging and discouraging at the same time.
Definitely a call to ante up. Matty is keeping score with his pocketbook and our votes are cast as sales made, not promises to purchase future waves.

I hope they put some RA on their weird Monday thing. More chances to vote, as it were.

As for Kyle - a figure I have no attachment to and was not planning on purchasing - I am gonna put my vote in for ten.
