Even if they stated for sure exactly what the price is going to be for the subscription, like 3 payments over the 6 months of $100 each or something?
Anyone hear anything one way or the other on this?

Venom heads and stickin' 'em on 25th bodies. Hey! I already have an exclusive Jinx in my closet just waiting to be put together and painted!

It should be either pay $80 and get the figures for free or you pay the $20ish for the figures. You don't see Mattel making their customers buy a "club membership" just to be able to buy the toys.

This is going to a significantly smaller group of collectors. If He-Man figures were made in the single-thousands, they'd be $40 each. And despite the fact that the line is all new sculpts at the start, most body parts for the entire line are already completed and we get like 2+ of the same He-Man head a year.

We still do not have a date of when the FSS will be up and running. They are working on some programming issues now. We estimate the price will be somewhere between $20-$25 per figure, but still do not know for sure. Thanks for your patience.
Karen This was a few days ago.

Man, I guarantee you're going to pay more than $300 to get these. Cover Girl alone is going to command more than $100 on the secondary market.
