@brasco I doubt it, because these are entirely new figures. For those German fan expos and events, it’s usually an existing figure, and even those are rare (I think it happened twice).

@smitty-81 The bucks seem to be Vintage Collection. So Mattel Creations, for sure. I like them!

Demo Man’s feet look like they could be from Cartoon Collection Mer Man / Clawful etc His wrist bracers look like ToG Mutated He-Man.

Always interesting to look for parts that were reused– it looks like “Ninjor” has shins and feet from the Cartoon Collection Evil Warriors. Clamp Champ *might* have CC Two Bad’s boots ?

@durendal Yes that’s what I meant about Ninjor– Galaxy Warriors, Turly Gang– it seems everyone had that dragon headed red guy lol I would think this is a modified head of Vypor, with moving jaw. I lov...

@he-mayon Do you mean Mikey? It’s like his nunchucks (-sticks) are connected by sheer energy, creating some sort of web? Thats how I see it, at least.

That Ninjor is far out! Might have to get that one. Looks so much like a Turly Gang head! Leo looks really great but SO similar to the first one. I don’t need two. Clampie really would have deserved a...

@smitty-81 Yeah something unexpected, not too serious… c’mon people, have some fun and surprise us!

Can’t wait! She is a must. Love how she turned out, maybe a bit of “helmet hair”, but otherwise I love her. Getting a classic She-are, for $20, on card… it’s a great time to be a MOTU fan, as they say...

They worked some more on Rammy, he looks great now! I’ve liked this Mantenna from the start… I’m telling myself I’m not collecting CC but might end up getting not only She-Ra, but also Mantenna! The d...

@depp76 Wiuld be nice to get a fun MOTU exclusive – a figure, preferably, even if it’s just some repaint!

@brasco Sorry about all that. None of it is pleasant.

@brasco Are you ok, did you get hurt? I’m sure the bureaucracy and financial stress is a lot! I’ve had my own battles, I can relate a bit. Hope it all gets resolved soon. Edit: Ah just read the follow...

@depp76 So Mattel is really going ahead with a new subline, apparently? I had thought maybe that Skeletor will just be a one-off… but from another site I also heard that Mattel has been mulling about ...

@mighty-thanos It still has some benefit– creating buzz AND showcasing some excellent MOTU books to their young, non-MOTU social media followers. It is kinda cute, the three of them with their books. ...

This is starting to look like a coordinated effort by the actors, to get us excited, and it is working! I do hope they are actually reading them!

@banthafett Thanks. Yeah Walmart is the worst in this regard. Those Collector Con items in May were sold out in seconds, and if you did manage to order, stuff is not coming when originally promised, b...

I have a fondness for M.A.S.K., definitely. We didn’t have GI Joe in Germany, so MOTU, Transformers, and MASK were my favorites. (Having lived in the US for over 20 years now, I’m still not interested...

@banthafett Interesting! I did just get my Krang, that I also ordered at the Collector-Con back in May, but Terroar has been delayed. Again. (Meanwhile, Lord Gr’Asp had arrived in June or July.) This ...

@durendal Yeah it’s a shame how all of that ended. He definitely accomplished a lot for MOTU. It’s just really interesting. Like others noticed, in the DK book, Classics just got one spread, or for ex...

@elder I did not love the Demo-Man / Skeletor mix in Classics, I hope they’ll move away from that in the Origins mini. In the announcement they hint at multiple stories… For Demo, or for Skeletor…? I ...

@chrisa I don’t know, like @durendal said, who would they think produced it then? Hasbro? 😏 I’m not in the camp of saying “oh everyone at Mattel is so incompetent!” I think sometimes there are reason...

@durendal Well that contradiction is appropriately vintage style lol I mean, in the vintage line, the feet were always dark blue like a boot, while the art often depicted him with bare feet. But I’m s...

@durendal Oh was it? Ok then it’s simple enough why they would say this.

“… Demo-Man has been made as a figure before, but not by Mattel – until now. Our version pays tribute to comics and concept art for the character. …” Interesting side note on the Mattel Creations Demo...
