Lol. Yes, its Mattel's 80th. Not MOTUs.

BigBadToyStore says estimated delivery this month for their current preorder. They probably just rsn through their initial stock and have more on the way. The initial one on Mattel Creations sold so fast that I ordered from BBTS

Welp. I have two full-time school kids now. The house is strangely quiet. Last week, I couldn't wait to hear less bickering. Today, Im already missing their giggles. I'm sad, but also proud of my boys. And proud of us, my wife and me. Parenting is tough.

Pre-order very soon. Vol 1 this year. Vol 2 likely next year. Physical only at first. Looking into digital, but that'll come later. Offering digital up front opens up for piracy, and I'd rather wait until we can sll some copies before it gets stolen. 😀
