Hive News: Matty Sale, June 15th

Matty Collector's monthly sale went live today at noon. I share my experience and view on the event after the jump.



Well, I bypassed all the usual White-Screen-O'-Death craziness and waited until 1:00pm to put my order in. I only wanted Faker & the 6" Venkman and both were still available when I signed on. If you were more ambitious than I and wanted Keldor or the Princess of Power, I hope you made it in time and grabbed them before they where gone. I have no idea at what time She-Ra sold out, so I don't know if there was any truth behind Toy Guru's statement about increased production numbers. Regardless, it wasn't enough to keep her available an hour after she went on sale, much less a day.

Anyway, I can't wait for Faker! I remember him from the old days and he's so corny, he's cool! I have a great comic lined up for him and hope to shoot it as soon as he comes in next week. As for Venkman... I mean, come on, it's Bill Murray! From probably the best movie of the '80s! This guy was who I wanted to be when I grew up! I'm going to have tons of fun putting him alongside my Ray and Winston figures. Now, I just have to wait another 7 months for Matty to release Egon...
