@smitty-81 Cool!
Haven’t seen Slamurai in a bit, either

@smitty-81 @Durendal Still, I wouldn’t mind if Mattel used bucks / parts from both the Origins vintage line as well as the 200X CC line if/when the New Adventures line debuts. Maybe even the Skel-Ra buck for bigger guys like…   Read more»

@smitty-81 This absolutely. Let’s not repeat the awful mistake vintage NA made by putting the figures on different scale and slimmer buck than vintage MOTU *smh*…what an own goal by Mattel back in the day…

@smitty-81 Oh yeah, I think you’re right that PoG will have more stuff, whichever. Possibly adding Strobo… many possibilities.

@smitty-81 With the ‘87 rights, there were issues with William Stout, but they did eventually get them for Classics, and again for Masterverse. It’s true they could be passed or dicey to negotiate. But you never know, the vintage movie…   Read more»

@smitty-81 It’s weird nobody remembers that the promise didn’t include the movie figures. I agree with you on what Mattel is thinking and that interest will wane after the two announced vintages. I think a lot of people want the…   Read more»

I do, but I want to know who’s forcing you to buy stuff, that’s a form of abuse. This is a safe place, you can tell us….   Read more»

@smitty-81 The Build-a-figure, you love them. Very much. 😏

@smitty-81 you know what, I think it’s good that we’re getting new versions of these characters, but also the same.

@smitty-81 you know what, I think it’s good that we’re getting new versions of these characters, but also the same.

@smitty-81 Okay! So the “build-up a figure” strategy is on with Origins? That’s a smart move considering the modularity of these figures. And a green demon from the famous mini-comics “Masks of Power”?! Awesome!

@smitty-81 Which Red Sonja figure is that? I must have it…

@smitty-81 Ha, that would be a fun way to explain their more modest size. Maybe they could replicate the MOTU Classics Giants? I know the molds are probably gone, but still, it helps to scan an existing product. Next to…   Read more»

@smitty-81 Yeah that would be fun. Thankfully, MEGA figures are still available to get, even if Mattel doesn’t do this. I have a few… somewhere. Nowadays, they have the Brickshop micro figs, which might be too small for it.The Mighty…   Read more»

@smitty-81 you rock! thank you!

@smitty-81 Thanks for the heads-up!! Ordered both of them! Teela looks great in the Origins style and Skeletor has some good detail in his design… he appears to use the same type of “hood articulation” as the chronicles figure. (Also,…   Read more»

@smitty-81 Oh wow! Riley is awesome. Very good news!

@smitty-81 These weren’t all released on MC, but I believe they were shown as MC
2025 – Sting-Or, Dragstor, She-Ra + Swift Wind2024 – Rio Blast, Geldor, Demo-Man, CC Modulok, CC Vultak

@smitty-81 We were also introduced to Ara-Lee in Masters of the Multiverse issue 5, but this was in continuity with the original mini-comic He-Man

@smitty-81 Oh, I was thinking of a different guy then.

That’s the one I’d be more interested in getting…

But I agree it sounds a bit more like a subtle announcement.

@smitty-81 Nice catch! I’d like to see this one

@smitty-81 yeah. I still love 30 seconds to Mars tho

@smitty-81 I don’t think those leaks about him not liking the movie are true, I think he is either trying to stay away so he doesn’t ruin the marketing, or he’s upset that the studio doesn’t want him to do press. Because he’s liked posts about the movie and Skeletor on Instagram:

@smitty-81 Hey, I’m all for it! My preferred line is Origins, so this would be a dream-come-true.
Just so long as none of them become retailer exclusives… ugh. I do not agree with that model.
 
Also, we’re forgetting Origins Movie Battle Cat!!
