<\/a>Friends! A long awaited day has finally arrived!! I think we’d all heard the rumors of the 2015 mini-sub being based on the MO2K (I still don’t like to call it 200x) series! I have nominated, whined, and downright bugged the folks at Mattel for a handful of figures and among them is the blink-and-you’ll-miss-him Calix. I have no idea what his back story will be and I don’t care. There was just something about the big rocky Horde member turned to gravel that struck a chord with me. And now we have our chance to pick him up with Club… Club 200x! <\/p>\n

In our post-ToyGuru-MOTUWorld, the word that might best sum everything up is low-key. I got up extra early this morning to be ready for the news, reveals, hints, teases, what-have-you, coming from the Mattel presentation, but what seemed to happen was hardly an event. The MO2k Sub wasn’t really even announced so much as there was just a poster in the room<\/a> talking about it. Weird times, folks. <\/p>\n

While I’m ecstatic about what we did see, four or five pictures pretty much sum it up. The MO2K sub, or Club 200x, will be on sale from 2\/23 to 3\/23 and feature six figures with a subscription exclusive head pack. Of the six, three have been revealed: Ceratus (Whiplash’s brother), the aforementioned Calix, & Evilseed! Also revealed was a MO2K head pack featuring MO2K heads for Buzz-Off, Clawful, Snout Spout, Roboto, & Sy-Klone! I think it’s a cool thing, but I kinda need Matty to offer up some of those guys again (and they won’t\/can’t) to make it worthwhile. The aftermarket prices on many of those are more than I care to pay to use the head. Except for Clawful, of course, that sucker is going straight on my figure. Mattel provided three press pics and poor Calix got a really badly shopped one: <\/p>\n

Mattel didn’t provide press pics for the head-pack, but you can see them and much better pics of everyone but Ceratus in both ToyArk Mattel Showroom Gallery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Club Eternia subscribers weren’t without reveals, POP favorite Peekablue and NA Fan’s Choice Winner Mara were on-hand. No press pics were provided, but they were in the showroom<\/a> (Via ToyArk). Mattel did post a video of Brandon Sopinsky introducing the figures on YouTube: 0<\/p>\n
