@he-dad logistics. They have to pack and ship everything from Mattel HQ to toy shows all over the world. The product samples need to be at HQ for photography and other promotional stuff that's done in...

@chrisa I don't think they would use prototypes or test samples for something like that.

@chrisa The one used in the stop-motion video was also translucent.

@he-dad The "He-Mutant" on display may not be the final version. Hopefully we'll get some more images for this show.

Does anyone want to buy my Gwildor?

@skeledog the mini comic is the same one the original release came with. The cross-sell is different and the is a "FAN FAVORITE" call out in the top right corner. So far She-Ra is the only one with an...

@brasco they were the first FF releases. Only sold through BBTS and EE and the had to get a certain number of Pre-orders in before Mattel would produce them.

So Masterverse seems to be MOTU's answer to Marvel Legends, The Star Wars Black Series and DC Multiverse. I've only bought He-Man and Skeletor variants but also have Vykron, and have Orko the white an...

@he-dad I used it for this one because there was so much story to tell it was easier to use more prose that just callouts.

@admin I think when it comes to toys Mattel can make what ever they want with the exception of movie characters, although that seems to be changing. MOTU and POP were created by Mattel and licensed to...

@brasco vintage Merman had a variant with a different color belt, so the could have done that but simply chose not to.

@brasco In my opinion she's the only one worth getting in you already haver any of the original releases. It's off that the made changes to her but not Merman. I wonder if they make any changes to Try...

@brasco DreamWorks She-Ra is what confuses me about this. They had Leech Grizzlor and Tongue Lasher, all of whom were in the original cartoon but from the MOTU toy line. It's confusing trying to figur...

@asterstar you say useless I say unobstructed art.

At first I just wanted a He-Man and Skeletor, then I added Blaster, one of my favorite Transformers... then G.I. Joe's got in the mix...

Well, USPS says I'll have my ToG Donatello on Friday. I hope it's the US version.

@ninadust the truth is we'll never know until Ruth, Eliot or Harold start posting in this thread. And confirm two of them are dead I don't think that'll happen.

@he-dad well don't listen to be either. I'm just making an educated guess. We saw Horde, Grizzlor and a few others in 200X and Hordak and Mosquitor (kinda) in the CGI show.

I thought it was Characters from the POP toy line that were off limits...

FANG-OR Thoughts: The writer went back to starting in the middle of the story Slave H-Man? Suddenly normal He-Man? Suddenly Cosmic He-Man, again? Kay thanks bye... LADY SLITHER Thoughts: Down to ...

Here are some images of Donatello from The Man Child's review.
