From international shipping issues at Mattel Creations to the Walmart "Cancel Con" debacle, in an effort to give a voice to the community, He-Mania.com tries to focus on issues impacting that community. And today, we thought it might be beneficial to shine a spotlight on frustrations some have been experiencing for years with a project called "Faking Filmation". "Faking Filmation" is a proposed documentary that surrounds a classic Filmation-like "He-Man and the Masters of the Universe" fan episode titled the "The Return of Faker" by He-Man super fan James Eatock. It was a clever idea: repurposing backgrounds, character models, animation…

Never heard about this before. I’m glad I didn’t because I would have slapped down the $99 to be in the episode for sure!

The best case here is they contact everyone and deliver the goods but then admit that the communication has been horrible.

Great that you are shining a light on this!
I only pledged to get a DVD of the whole project.
If Faker is not on it, that defeats the purpose…
Films take a long time, but yeah, pandemic and all, it would be nice to get to the finish line.
I can’t afford that Eternia Set on the aftermarket!

No one asked for my likeness. I thought it was just me but I can tell now that it's a lot of people. Can he get my likeness in the episode in time if he showing it in Sept.?

I didn’t follow this, how many people were actually supposed to get their likeness in the episode? It has to be a lot and don’t see it happening. That extra 80k is probably long gone

James said in his response he promises to deliver on the likeness. I wonder if that means only emailing people digital images or does it mean everything including adding everyone to the Faker episode. It should be both. Maybe he has time to do it but I doubt the discs will be ready for Power-Con.

 

Does anyone know how they can show Return of Faker at Power-Con now? Isn't not being allowed to show it the whole story of the documentary but now they can show it? I don't get it.
