Perhaps slash the price in half to about ten dollars per figure. This would make collecting them a not so daunting task.
Also order more characters then just 50 different he man and skeletor action figures.
If collectors kids could find more than just he man and skeletor they would sell more.
I know they did the same with thundercats really stocked up on liono and mummy mummra and surprise surprise the excess is keeping the pegs warm while you have trouble locating Panthro or Cheetara.
Im just saying a little common sense could have saved the first re issue of masters of the universe and kept it viable into the future.
Just ask any collector and the most viable 80s lines are Transformers G.I. Joe Masters of the universe and thundercats
for the classics i think the 16.99 price point is very fair. i bought 1 lion-o to open and 1 to keep in box. the one i opened has fantastic articulation. that along with its size and really cool attachable clawsheild with dagger slot make it well worth the price IMO.
as far as availability... my local Wal-Mart's and TrU's all seem to be carrying a variety of figures. i tried to buy up what i thought would be rare to find FIRST so i could get all the popular/overstocked ones later. as i kept returning to look for more figures i found that everytime they restocked there was more and more variety. at first i saw no cheetara's at all but now everytime i go i see at LEAST 1 of her in stock. i now see many more wileykit/kat's in stock too.
i think youre right and at first they stocked up heavily with Lion-o's and Mumm-ra's but it seems in my town that as everyone started to sell the toys they restocked the section how it should be.
