Ask Matty!
March 15th 2011

Hey all! Here's the March 15th Q & A!

Photobucket

1.) Is "Battleground Teela" in her final form already? Many fans are hoping that her arm bracers might be switched so that they can look more "correct". If it isn't too late to switch them, perhaps a poll could be run at Matty to see which way is preferred amongst fans...

Yes, the figure is tool’d and final as shown at NYTF.

2.) Both Catra figures shown at NYTF had a deformed/warped skirt which was too short on her right thigh- allowing the crotch peg to show. Are these just defective samples or should we expect this defect on the final figure?

This was still an early sample and we will pass these comments on to design as we move toward the final version!

3.) Is there any movement on other product related to the MOTU brand being released, like t-shirts or comic reprints?

We are ALWAYS working on new product for the MOTU brand. Hopefully we will be in a position to announce new things soon!

4.) Many fans are very excited about the "Collector Appreciation" tour! The past trend has been for Matty to reveal new figures at Toy Fair and SDCC... but will there be some new figure reveals at these tour stops as well? I for one would LOVE to see at least one new MOTUC figure revealed at each of these spots!

Most reveals will still be at NYTF and at SDCC. We will likely have one or two figures (in total across all brands) at some of the smaller shows, but don’t look for a huge reveal the way we do for SDCC (similar to how Carnivus was revealed at Philly Con last year!)

5.) Are there any plans for an official MOTUC fan club or convention on the horizon (similar to what Hasbro does with it's G.I.Joe and Transformers lines)?

This is something we are looking into, but nothing to confirm right now.


thanks again to Mattel for taking the time to do this!
