You should begin to see shipping confirmations for the Club Mordle packet this week!
I have to figure out a way to make shipments that go beyond the 45 day limit on PayPal easier - been taking all of the info from my e-mail into PayPal and it is slooooooow going.
Let me know what you think when you get them!
And enjoy the "sneak peek" of the next Mordle edition - they'll be on sale next month.

Club Updates! Mordle Singles? Crossover with October Toys! Godbeast sale this Sunday!
Club Mordle members should check their e-mails - Club packets are ready to ship!
If you changed your address since last year, let me know ASAP!
Also, Mordle singles were removed in the store update.
I ran into an inventory issue with the singles, which is why they aren't available to purchase directly from the store.
If you want singles, e-mail me a list of the species you want and the colors and I'll fill each order that way (when possible).
Club Zeton update - thanks to everyone who has already bought a membership!
We're over a quarter of the way to the goal already, and you haven't even seen the Imperious Edition yet! A taste is coming soon....
EDIT: also, wanted to clarify something about the $75.
It isn't $75 to get the chance for the club benefits.
The $75 membership fee GETS you the following items with NO additional purchases:
- Ultimate Maxx Zero - Imperious Edition!
- A club membership packet including a membership card and certificate.
- Mystery Maxx Modules!
- Lenticular stickers - two sets of them - to replicate the original "Maxx Steele" chest lights and "Maxx" logo for your modern Robo Force figures!
(someone asked about the pricing on these if I were selling them in the public store - they would be $10 each. Lenticular stickers are crazy expensive!)
- and a TEST SHOT of an upcoming figure from the Zetonian properties (Zeroids, S.T.A.R. Team, and Robo Force)!
If you never purchased anything but the Club membership, you'd get all of the above with no extra purchase - it's over $100 of value right there!
Plus the following benefits:
- Unpainted Editions offered at a discounted price!
- Ability to order any Ultimate Edition with or without the detail lines!
- Guaranteed Access to all Robo Force products offered by Toyfinity.com, as well as any convention exclusives offered at shows by Toyfinity directly.
- voting on the order in which you want to see the classic characters produced as Ultimate Editions!
After Hun-Dred, I know you guys want him as the next Ultimate Edition.
First-ever Mordle crossover product!
October Toys will be selling the two Mordle Editions above - the Flesh Mordles - as part of their 24 Hour Toy Break which starts tomorrow. Toyfinity will not have any stock of these editions for sale!
Get them and use them to fight your OMFG and M.U.S.C.L.E figures!
Last but not least, the Godbeast has a sale this weekend. including some of his finest Kabuto Mushis yet. I saw a sneak peek of the new ones during a recent visit to Onell HQ and they are something else. Witness an Ultraman-inspired edition above! Jump over to his store for more details as they are made available!

Meet the new Mordles...SUBJECT: Ardaan's Mist
On planet Uzalek, many sectors of the planet beyond the Great Jungle are subject to strange shifts in geography, weather, and gravity. Commander Zogg tasked his personal keeper of knowledge, a Murlun of light blue (similar to many of the eggs found on Uzalek) named Ardaan, with cataloging these phenomena and indexing them for potential future use. After the rampage of Rand, and the subsequent Geist and Ha-Zrad incursions, Zogg sat down with Ardaan, Piotr of the Murlun, and the rest of the Mordle council to discuss ways to defend the Great Jungle.
The most promising of the discoveries was a cloud that appeared every fifty-eight risings of the sun of planet Uzalek. The cloud was located at the most southeastern point of the Great Jungle, where the jungle transitioned into a gritty surface; it appeared for approximately forty-two counts of a Mordle foot tap (the standard measure of Mordle time), six-hundred foot taps after the rising of the sun in that area.
Exposure to this cloud would turn a Mordle completely transparent, rendering them invisible to sight and mental detection by other Mordles. A side effect - completely useful for once, instead of the insanity rendered by consumption of Mordle flesh to gain size and strength - was the ability of these Mordles to illuminate their eyes, making it easier for them to see in dark places. So far, one Zerak Mordle had survived the cloud, an accidental exposure - a carpenter Mordle named Dantusur. Zogg tasked Ardaan with taking a select group of twenty Mordle warriors to the cloud, giving him an invisible army of sentinels against threats to the Great Jungle.

Aftermath
Thanks so much Mordles fans!
I'm very pleased to see so many Mordles now out there in the wild, infesting your toy collections.
Can't tell you how happy I've been to see all the pics and reviews that have been popping up for Mordles around the internet.
Reintroducing a toyline to the public is always an interesting thing, and I appreciate all of the feedback, well wishes, and comments.
All orders received through Wednesday at 6 pm have shipped, so if you don't have your Mordles yet, they should be popping up in your mailboxes soon.
About the next Mordles release-
Club Mordle store opens again at 11 pm EST on Sunday July 14th. The store will close on Sunday July 21st at 9 pm. There will be three different items in this batch for you to purchase. A teaser for club members will pop up by Monday (maybe as soon as this weekend) - an e-mail will be sent out, as usual, telling you when to log-in.
Club Mordle memberships will reopen for a limited number of new members early next week. This will most likely be the last offering of club memberships in 2013.
Will the Sonesidar Mordles be included in the next release? Find out this weekend!

Everything has shipped! and Mordle history - first modern test shot pics
100% of Club Mordle orders are out there in the world, so everyone should have them invading their mailboxes pretty soon.
Today, I'd like to show you the very first test shots I received of the brand-new tooling that creates the Mordles. When I obtained the rights, I thought for a while about what I wanted to give to the fans first. I thought about all-new Mordles and including the original "Ripsaw" Mordle as a bonus, but that would miss an important point: the people that love Mordles have never been able to get that many of them. Most people who even had an interest in getting some might spend years tracking them down. How many people out there even have a set of all ten originals? Took me years to track down all of the RBT and Mordles, with Rockadile being the toughest of the Rocks and Bugs to acquire.
So, I consulted with Matt Doughty of Onell Design, and based on my passion for the originals, we decided to start with a full set of the vintage Mordles. Because none of the original RBT tooling still exists, it meant starting over again from scratch. My precious set of the original Mordles was sent to China for processing.
Now, I didn't want there to be any confusion with the originals, and I think we've succeeded there.
The plastic is completely different than the original release, and the additional paint apps add something I've always wanted on the Mordles. It also gives us the potential to make some really crazy Mordle colors - imagine tiger-striped Mordles! Or Mordles with eyes one color and toenails a different color...it costs more but we can literally do anything we want.
Additionally, I needed to get the original CBS markings off of the figures. This way you have as close to a perfectly clean Mordle as can be.
There's a lot of lead time involved with doing any project that involves tooling, molds, sculpting, factory production, and so on...I'll get into the full process in a future post.
Today, we focus on one aspect of that process. Once the factory has created your tooling, they get to a certain point and they are ready for your approval of what the tooling is supposed to make.
Whatever plastic is laying around in the machines (leftovers from another product made at the factory) is injected into your tooling so you can evaluate what it looks like. This is called a test shot.
Sometimes you get crazy colors that you would never make the product in. My particular test shots are a kind of metallic red.
Enjoy the very first view I had of the Mordles when I opened the box on that day back in March and saw these guys spill out!

Club Mordle store closes tomorrow! Next up - general public release on June 28th!
Hello Mordle fans!
Just a reminder - the club store closes tomorrow at 9 pm EST, so if you haven't gotten your order in, time is running out.
Every order made through 1:30 pm Saturday has shipped out to you guys - with anyone who ordered after that going out on Monday.
Next up, the general release of Mordles occurs on Friday June 28th. If you love the Mordles, tell your friends so they can get some Mordles on the 28th. It's been great enjoying the various pics of the Mordles in your households and the kind words about the guys. I've always wished Mordles were easier to get - and now they are!
Club Members should look for an e-mail next week with some details about club business. Hope you enjoyed the sneak peek at a future Mordle colorway, seen after you logged in to Club Mordle!
Question for everyone: would you want an option to purchase the Manglor egg separately?
If so, let me know in the comments section.

CLUB MORDLE - Final details!
CLUB MORDLE DETAILS!
PURPOSE: Club Mordle guarantees you the chance to purchase at least ONE of each and every release-version MORDLES action figure, set, and accessory!
HOW IT WORKS: Toyfinity Toys plans to release a number of different colored sets of Mordles and related products in 2013.
The first release is JUNE 2013.
To join Club Mordle, go to the Toyfinity store and purchase the Club Mordle membership. The cost of membership is only $10 in 2013! You'll be provided a special membership packet in your Mordles product order that will 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 Mordle colorway, and potentially receive other exclusive information and offers.
THE SPECIFICS: Mordles love to hatch in groups! But sometimes, they hatch all by themselves.
As such, a release may consist of one single Mordle figure, Mordles with special accessories or Glyos items, or multiple packs of Mordles in special colorways or designs.
The cost for each Mordles product will vary depending on what is included in the product - number of Mordles, paint decos, and so on.
Unlike other subscriptions, Toyfinity Toys is NOT locking you into purchasing product blindly or guaranteeing sales to Toyfinity in advance.
Here's how it will work:
- Purchase the Club Mordle membership.
- Toyfinity Toys will announce a product release, listing the items for sale in the specific release.
- Club Mordle members will be provided a link to the Club Mordle store. The store opens midnight June 17th EST (i.e. Sunday-into-Monday). It closes on June 23rd at 9 pm EST.
- Members will be allowed to make ONE and ONLY ONE purchase from the store during this time. You do not have to purchase every item! But you cannot update quantities once you check out. You are guaranteed to be allowed to purchase at least one of every item in the store, sometimes more as quantities allow. Limits will be listed.
