Scratch my previous post reply to you about Snake Mountain.Β Someone updated the thread over there to state that the place they found Snake Mountain is not a Walmart, but rather an independent store.Β BOO!!Β (lol)
I don't think anyone stateside has actually found Snake Mountain at bricks & mortar. I got mine from Amazon, I think it's also hit BBTS Pile of Loot.
With how hard Origins has been to collect, I really don't know if I want to start a new Filmation line. But I will most likely get them and keep them carded or something. The MC releases have been great, but the price increase and shipping charge is making them less affordable as I got into this line because they were affordable. With that said I did order Lady Slither, but at the end of the day she's just not $45 worth of fun. For that price I can get a Legends 2 pack or more.
Mattel needs to find a way to keep cost down. We don't really need the fancy packaging.Β
Another Lady Slither issue I saw on Reddit was the box was missing the entire figure and staff. The dagger, waist piece, and tail were all intact. But seriously. WTF is going on at MC
I ended up ordering two Snake Mountains from Amazon since it went back in stock on their site.Β Should be here Saturday.Β I hated to cancel at BBTS, but through Amazon it was almost $20 cheaper for x2 of the playset, and I will have it in hand by this weekend.

I am so not looking forward to her now.Β I really like the figure and package in total, but there seems to be a higher than usual number of reports about missing pieces.Β Then add in the leg sprue damage issue and it seems like she was made at a poor performance factory.

I haven't opened Slither yet, but I think Canprime is referring to the upper hips.Β They have a spot that looks very rough or unfinished at the point of injection, possibly?Β I saw it in a video,which you don't want to seek out because one of the guys was in full Hulk Hogan gimmick and carrying the joke way too far.

Got my Lady Slither delivered today.Β Strange, not used to deliveries on a Sunday.Β
Haven't opened her up yet, but I did check and she appears to be complete.Β All the parts are in the package.Β Can't see the top of the legs to check for the sprue marks yet.
I got my slither last week, and all parts seemed present, but I also haven't opened and didn't even think to look at her legs.Β I don't think that issue will bother me at all anyway though to be honest.
Are you guys still finding Moss Man in the wild? He was abundant in my area but now he's gone. I was thankfully able to get one, but I wanted a second to keep MIB.
The last time I went looking he was still at most of my stores, about two weeks ago.
Target canceled my Rulers of the Sun pack.Β 😡Β
Hey all, I tried to post this over at He-Man.org, but they wouldn't let my account post or even view the snake mountain thread.Β πΒ Β
What I've done is made a small adapter for the Snake Mountain Origins to allow the Snake to wrap around the peak of the mountain a bit.

Anyways, mainly just posting here in case anyone else really wanted the Origins Snake Mountain to do this when it came out.
@spacecowboy850 Hey that's pretty cool, thanks for posting!Β I downloaded a copy of your file for when I eventually get and open Snake Mountain someday.
