In June 2013, prepare for the return of one of the forgotten toy lines of the 1980s – THE MORDLES!
In 1985, the classic Ideal property ROCKS AND BUGS AND THINGS detailed the never-ending battle between creatures disguised as rocks and bugs, while exploring their need to consume the mischievous Mordles – their only food source. Check out the classic commercial for the line here:
Mordles prices have been ridiculous since the early days of eBay – but in 2013, the Mordles return in all-new adventures and colors at an affordable price from Toyfinity Toys!
These little whirlwinds of energy and personality will once again have their chance to shine in a direct-to-consumer line available at Toyfinity.com and select brick-and-mortar retailers such as the House of Fun in Oaklyn, New Jersey.
Rescued from obscurity with the assistance of the curator of ToyMemories.com, Toyfinity Toys – in conjunction with Onell Design, creators of the Glyos System (www.glyos.com) toyline – has recreated the full set of the ten vintage Mordles in all-new colors…and for the first time, with painted toenails.
Mordles love to arrive in groupings called waves; the first wave consists of six editions, released two editions per month starting June 28th, 2013.
The first two editions are:
Standard Edition Mordles (yellow) ten pack with special bonus item – $16.
Crawler Edition Mordles (blue) ten pack – $12
Teaser photos are currently up at Glyos.com, with more detailed pictures to follow soon.By the demand of the fans of Mordles, a club has been created which guarantees members the chance to purchase at least one of every Mordles product released in 2013 – Club Mordle!
Club memberships are available now at Toyfinity.com through June 16th (or while memberships last). For the low price of $10, members will receive a packet designed to evoke memories of the classic fan club kits of days gone by. There are no toy-based products included in the Club Mordle kit. Members will also have the opportunity to vote on a future Mordles production run.
Unlike other subscriptions, Toyfinity Toys is not locking anyone in purchasing product blindly. Members will have access to a store prior to the date that the general public will be allowed to purchase the figures, starting on Monday June 17th. The store will only be available for a limited time, the full details of which can be found here (http://pheydenfans.blogspot.com/2013/05/where-have-i-been.html).
The Mordles are only the first release in a series of products from Toyfinity Toys that also include the classic ROBO FORCE property. Keep your eyes on Toyfinity.com and Mordles.com for more details!
