It's because the box art is so damned good!I will definitely grab both items. I'm excited about the Fright Zone. Hopefully they get out the Slime Pit and complete the Playsets. But Fright Zone looks cool. I may even get 2 of them to keep one in box, which I oddly did for Grayskull, Snake Mountain, and Point Dredd. I don't know why, but I did lol.
Also, NORM, I don't think Despara is from any certain Universe. I just remember she was created during the MOTU Classics run.
If Despara and Hurricane Hordak didn't sell out I can pretty much guarantee Sharella won't sell out. So just wait for the Fright Zone and order them together.So another not vintage figure (no, really, we promise!) three days away from an anticipated playset so they can hit you with more shipping charges.
*grumble*
Yes, reading that article, the Sharella pictured there is a custom. Mattel has not revealed her yet, to my knowledge.I'm confused about Sharella. Isn't that a custom? At first I was flipping out because of course Mattel is going to release two items DAYS apart. I wouldn't be surprised by this because they're fucking losers. But the more I looked at it, the more it seems like that article is conflating what Mattel is going to be releasing with what some random customizer dude is going to be releasing.
This ^Toy Habits always uses pictures of someone's customs or an older version of the figure or something as a visual if there have been no official pictures released.
