WTF?

@sketchyskeletor This is exactly why reselling my Motuc figures is so problematic. The uncertainties of the Masterverse line... I'd be more willing to bet on the future under more solid circumstances.

So according to Toy Habits, these are some of the new Masterverse figures coming up: TeelaShe-RaHordakMoss-ManFakerTerror Claws SkeletorStratos The only new characters we don't have yet are:NinjorCobr...

Also, it was pointed out on the other MOTU forum that The Great Black Wizard is prominently shown on the cover of He-Ro's comic. At first I didn't clue in and just assumed that was Skeletor, but he di...

@lasastard even though the artists involved in the packaging design have a very deep love and understanding of MOTU lore. It's just a very odd, easily-avoidable own goal. How does shit like that happe...

That to me is honestly is such a major mistep. Why would they use this weird box design when the vintage version was *right there* Kinda makes me think that the people in charge know the IP less than ...

He-Ro's deluxe box is ok, but I kind of wish they had released him using the original card design from the 80's, like Super7 did a few years ago... Also, they really should have included an extra head...

@lasastard I really appreciate that Mattel dramatically expanded the Snake Men faction in Origins, because in the vintage years it was a disproportionally small group compared with the others. I'm hop...

Oh! I didn't notice those two things til I saw your comment! Gold weapons is weird but the die-cast recorder is ... cool, I guess ... ?

Hmmm ... All right, Mattel, I guess we'll just have to wait until SDCC for you to unveil another bunch of MV figures? Like this intriguing Moss Man or even the two rumored evil warriors (Ninjor, Kobra...

Well it wasn't really official then! 😀 It just feels like a shady practice to me. Do I want He-ro in my collection? Honestly, depends on where they are going with Preternia. If it's just 1-2 characte...

@sketchyskeletor Mattel certainly makes some strange decisions. They had confidence in Snake Men Infiltrator and naked Stratos at retail, but not in Rio Blast or He-Ro

I hope if we do get the giants, they do them right. Not like the Andre the giant we got in the motu/wwe line.

@banthafett that includes the vintage boxes exactly how they were too

I am looking forward to this figure. He was one of my favourites from the 87 movie. I never managed to get the vintage figure as He-Man was getting harder to find in Canada at that time. I was also no...

I haven't watched any of the live streams, but the reveals were all pretty underwhelming IMHO. Just nothing really exciting.

Nice flesh colored hand you got there.

Well, you don't have to be a good mathematician to understand that ordering this membership, however sporadic my interest may be, will always be better than tackling the secondary market for possible ...

Possible; I was so annoyed by the announcement that they want to push me into a subscription just to buy a "regular" figure that steam was coming out of my ears at that point 😉

Well, of course. I mean, it was Filmation Hordak who constantly shape-shifted and could use a bunch of cool attachments, but why honor that? *eyeroll* This "REVEAL!1!" was pretty lame. Just say you're...

@disneyboy regular origins

Which version? Filmation? Cartoon Collection? EDIT: Oh FFS - entered my email for the giveaway right at the start and it said "ERROR". A portent of doom for the online subscription program? You ...

yep

Mattel forever boner for Snakemen. You think with how they got turned down on that Lair, they would be limp by now. NO MEANS NO, MATTEL!!!

HAHA I do too, banthafett. The narrative about He-Ro was just dumb. Those magic words - are those cannon? Yeesh. The livestream froze as they mentioned someone with canon accessories - was that a refe...
