@smitty-81 The only Filmation-created character is Fang Man, and just like Vultak before him, he was already previously done in Classics. While I'm happy to get him, c'mon Mattel - start making characters that actually HAVEN'T been done before. 

Angry Mer-Man

@durendal I get what you're saying but for a lot of fans Classics may as well never have happened. It's also nice to get vintage characters in a vintage form factor.

@smitty-81 I guess so, since it was a lot harder to access by not being offered through retail outlets. And yeah, I get wanting these guys in the vintage scale. I'm all for it, I'm just impatient about getting stuff that hasn't been done yet Laugh Clawful

@smitty-81 It would be a long list. Off the top of my head in the spur of the moment, Filmation created characters that have never gotten a figure yet:

Kothos

Admiral Scurvy

Gamemaster

Ileena

Zilora

Slave Master

Red Knight

I'm pretty sure Melaktha and the Twiggets haven't ever had figures either.

The plot thickens! I hope we'll get a first look soon. The FZ to me is a nice way to put that collection (Origins) to bed. Not much left on my "must-have" list now. I mean, I would love if they also re-issued the various vehicles; but my guess is that these just don't sell as well.

@lasastard aside from figures I'd love to get an Origins Bashasaurus. I have a vintage one but it's only a matter of time before it stops working.

@chrisa I cold see the Twiggets could be accessories for various CC figures.

Or they could come in a "deluxe" set with Loo-kee and Kowl.

That would be nice. I will happily admit, I really want a Dragon Walker 😀 I know, you can still get these on Ebay, tho rarely in working condition at a "reasonable" price. Would be nice to see how they would re-imagine it. But alas...not seeing it. We'll get a few waves of "Cartoon Collection", until characters start becoming so obscure again that only 5 people will buy them and Mattel starts the line over yet again, maybe "New Adventures" or 200x-style or whatever.

The screen accurate brown paint that disappeared off the face of the upcoming Masters of the Universe: Origins "Cartoon Collection" Buzz-Off figure in Mattel’s promotional images has thankfully returned in this low resolution look at the figure in-packaging (courtesy of Roy Juarez.)

Hot question: is there an MOTU Origins Stratos figure with grey skin, blue harness and red wings? I only find for sale:

- white-ish skin, blue harness, red wings

or

 - grey skin, red harness, blue wings.

I was hoping to find a figure extremely faithful to the one of the '80s, that by the way was the first MOTU figure I got as a kid!

Best regards

@alteredquantum The most faithful figure is the original and you can get loose vintage Stratos figures on the real cheap.

@kraken I'm already looking for the original '80s around the internet, and I eventually will buy it in the future, but, since I'm collecting the Origins line too, it would be awesome to manage to get an Origins Stratos as well.

You could get a VC and CC Stratos and swap their jetpacks and wings.

Ok, I suppose that an official Origins one doesn't exist with aforementioned features...

@alteredquantum Mattel did the stupid thing and released both grey Stratos and naked Stratos with the same coloured jetpack and wings. They had one job...

@alteredquantum vintage Stratos came with red wings and a blue jetpack or blue wings and a red jetpack.
