@kraken It's to my understanding that Mattel pulled the license because they wanted to make their own in-house line (which turned out to be Origins and Masterverse).

I knew there was a desire to diversify away from China, with Vietnam as a potential site, but I hadn't heard of India as a manufacturing hub. Seems like a win to me. In the early days of the pandemic,...

@smitty-81 Yes, yes I did.

If I were to wager a guess, here's how I think it'll turn out: -He-Man will get his Stealth outfit off panel after intros are made. Probably Leo as well. -There will be some part Donnie needs to take ...

@smitty-81 Hopefully.

After double-checking Blast-Attak's armor, I concede that it isn't an overt reference. There isn't a dial or 1 to 1 shapes. However, the colors are similar and the way it opens up made me think of Bla...

First off, I've seen enough pics of ToG Leatherhead now that I believe that his vest is a Blast-Attak reference. Second, it would have been so much funnier if he could wear his hat on top of his spik...

They aren't Shakespeare, but I never really asked them to be. They are fun extras that come with the figures, and frankly, the ToG mini-comics have been better than the last crop of Origins ones. I've...

Glad to see they addressed the one thing that was bugging me - where was He-Man's sword in all this?

(Pssst...Skeletor's name is misspelled on TP He-Man's package blurb. Oops...)

It needs an Orko eye-wink also.

I don't think they'd have to resize it, those bots were about the right size for Origins. I'd bet money it's just the Classics bot.

Sincerely hope that Krang and Moss Man end up on Mattel Creations. That'd probably be the best chance any of us would have to get them.

The hair is removable! Also, Teela's helmet is removable as well. Kind of an interesting change to have removable helmet pieces when Donatello and MAA didn't have them.

One idea I had was to mix Evil-Lyn with Renet and give her the Time Scepter. Both heroes and villains would need to team up to stop her. Foot Troopers are begging to be a thing. And I'd like to see a ...

@lordofdestruction I was honestly surprised Sla'ker was the deluxe last time and not Ram-Man. It's always hard to tell who's going in those slots.

@smitty-81 Yes, but I was talking about Man-at-Arms, not Donnie. His helmet really looks like it should be removable.

@smitty-81 I hope you're right, but MAA's helmet looked removable as well... I like the idea of the He-Man wig, and it's cute in the artwork, but it really didn't translate well to the figure. That Sk...

Welp. Walmart Collector Con went about as well as expected. Had both in my cart, had to fiddle with checkout, lost 'em both. Hope others were more successful.

For anyone still interested in getting the Rulers of the Sun 3-pack, Target is starting to discount them to $29.99.

Welp, time to get ready for the Walmart MOTU Hunger Games.

Wow, I actually called that Rocksteady/Bebop + Two-Bad mashup some time ago! I didn't think I'd be right!

@smitty-81 Sorry, Mattel Creations. I was talking to my son about the Ghostbusters Proton Pack and had Haslab on the brain.

Seeing Mouse Jaw on Haslab gives me hope that the Wal-Mart exclusives will be on there and will hopefully be easier to get. (Then again, I still see Duplico there...)

Is Sla'ker going to be taller or have an extra large shell? I'm not sure why he's considered a Deluxe. He doesn't even come with the Metalboto body.
