Although many hardcore MOTU purists may argue that Keldor is not a core character, we strongly disagree. Why was Prince Keldor slated as a quarterly bonus figure instead of being given his well-deserved slot as a monthly Club Eternia figure?

Quote:

Keldor was slotted in as a variant of Skeletor much as Battle Armor He-Man was a variant of He-Man. Going forward into 2011 all of the figures will be included in the subscription making this a moot point.

When will the packaging for the SDCC MOTU Robot Chicken set be revealed and will there be anything difference between the ones at the show vs. those sold through MattyCollector?

Quote:

The packaging was recently revealed on the April 13th episode of G4's "Attack of the Show." There will be no difference between the one sold at the show and online for this guy!

Although their riders have not yet been released, is there a good chance that Strydor and Nightstalker may be released as part of the beast assortment in 2011?

Quote:

Both electronic horses would be "simplier" to get to then some beasts since they share the same tool. We can't comment on anything past Whiplash and Gygor at this point.

In regards to the Shadow Beasts, do you have the rights to make the Filmation version of the creatures and if not, will you still make them in the 200X style?

Quote:

If we did Shadow Beasts it would be based off of the 2002 series look. We will not be doing anything from the Filmation series at this time.

You stated recently that there will be a "spirited collection" of Ghostbusters on display at C2E2. Is that in any way a hint that there will be some new ghosts on display or possibly that line's SDCC exclusive?

Quote:

No, that was not a hint, just a fun phrase. We won't be revealing anything new at the Chicago show, but fans can see all of the toys we revealed at NYTF live and up close!
