Kyle's Coming 9/15

[Daremo]

After a few back and forth emails with Matty, out of the blue, I received a new shipping order, with the cost of the figure and the shipping cost zeroed out. It looks to me like they are sending me another one, free of charge, unless there's a return order in the box, we'll see.

DOHHH!!!

I have you all beat, I ordered one Kyle and got both an open right hand and a fist right hand...only one ring though;

Mine arrived and looks great. Mattel ended the Retro line on a high note. I just have to switch bodies and place it in a retro box and we can call it day. Save the line, end the line....whatever. The great thing about the Mego format is we can make our own figures.

Had an email saying mines been shipped,don't mind which version i get,i wished they would of carried on the GL line,a Tomar-Re figure would of been cool.

I'm really amazed how several members here have received Kyle and, to my knowledge, not one pic has been shown or one thread made to show him off...completely unlike the past history other Mattel retros.

Pages 8 & 9 of this theaad have photos of him carded and showing the different ring hands.

^^ there are a few pics earlier in the thread showing the different ring hands, but other than that, not much for show and tell on Kyle.

Just a word on that $5 DCUC coupon that came with Kyle. Tried to use it today at K-Mart on a Batman Legacy figure (the K-Mart Golden Age Batman with Bat-Mite) and the register rejected it. The coupon says it's for 6" DC Universe figures. The Batman Legacy figures actually say DC Universe up top. The cashier called the CSM over, and he said it was for the Classics only. I went ahead and bought the figure thinking maybe he was right.

I then went to the Wal-mart in town, and found a DCUC Samurai. I figured if I could get him for $11, why not? So I took it to the counter, and got the same thing! The Wal-Mart cashier looked at the package and the coupon and said "This is the right kind of toy, right?" I answered yes, and pointed out that Toyman (who is pictured on the coupon) was actually back in the toy dept. too. She just took $5 off my total, but the coupon never worked.

So Mattel may have screwed up the coupons even. Man, for everything the do right, the do about 10 wrong. I'd understand it if they were an upstart company, but they are frickin' Mattel. They practically invented modern toys as we know it.

Got my order...all open hand versions in my shipment! Kyle is awesome! Really happy with this figure! There is no way these babys are OVER! I hope all of the gang gets in on this one! He is ultra cool! I'm gonna place an order for more right now and hope to get the fist version too!

You really need to try and show some enthusiasm here.

Got mine today. One is the fist version. Didn't open the other one.

Got mine, molded ring with fist version. If anyone who received the painted/open hand version wants to sell theirs, let me know. I'd like to have both versions but ordering another from Matty in hopes of getting the painted ring version would likely be a 50/50 proposition at best.

Got mine today, the painted ring version. I really liked the GL line. Would have loved a Kilowog.

[MEGOMAN]

Got mine today and the ring is molded.
