Playmates doesn't give 2 craps about their facebook page they only respond if you suck up to their crappy products

Typical sign of a bad/lazy PR team/person. Shame. Part of their job should be to collect feedback on what people want from them. I think the message has been really clear for a long time: We want better quality, and we want fan-favorite characters. Both of which they are either failing at miserably or way, WAY behind the curb on. Cancelling muckman is just another symptom of that.

all they do is show pics of the toys in action shots little kids playing with toys and stupid trivia. They never talk about upcoming products or showing them.

That's very true, its super annoying.I still think flooding their page with complaints about the Muckman cancelation couldn't hurt...I mean apparently we already lost Muckman, what else do we have to lose???

Hello,

As of now we know release dates are postponed until 2016 for multiple products but it is not certain whether or not they will all be manufactured.

Thank you & Regards,

That stinks. What about ice cream kitty three pack,krang prime? Are all the two packs of half shell heroes(ie pigeon Pete/monkey brains) still going to be released?
Shantae? Get back to fighting Risky Boots, you're no good with a toyline.

They have to release Muckman!! Dang, he is one of my favorite characters. I really liked what I saw, even knowing that he was likely only going to be green and orange with no other paint apps. I really hope he does eventually get released, how could a kid not want to buy a figure that is made out of trash and slime? lol

Well, it's certainly nothing new from Playmates. I spent years looking for Dr. Quease...

If Playmates wants to Cancel anything how about cancelling those stupid Mutation figures that nobody buys. I mean the pet to ninja turtle ones the turtle to weapon ones and the mutation vehicles.

I guess we should expect Cluckingsworth pack to be cancelled too. Heck whatever happened to the Savanti Romero figure.

We've only seen a rough prototype of Savanti, so it's possible he'll be released eventually.

I certainly hope Savanti gets a figure, the 2k3 version isn't all that impressive.

Yeah, it really is a serious bummer. But I sorta prepared myself, I knew the second I saw him that he'd be cancelled, just a bad vibe I got. Why must I always be right?!
