MOTU line re-launch is re-scheduled
|
RTM spoke to Mattel today to get some more information on the re-launch of the Masters of the Universe action figures. We have some basic information that we'll share here, and there will be an official press release from Mattel to follow in the next day or so.
The figures are going to be delayed until the end of summer/early fall 2002. There are several reasons for delaying the launch until then:
There will be a new one-hour special on He-Man that will air next year, and they are planning to coincide the re-launch with this special.
This is the biggest boys action figure launch that Mattel has had, and Mattel wants to ensure that the figures have the highest quality and that they are ready for the launch.
Mattel will be showing He-Man at Toy Fair in New York in their gallery in February, and RTM will be there to cover them.
A reminder: There will be an official press release sent out in the next day or two, but we wanted to give everyone a little jump and to get out the word straight from Mattel.
