I love it! There are nice big pics at toyark:

I want it so bad I can taste it... and it's tastes like awesome.

Nah, it's just under 9 inches for the door and in the low estimate for overall height 26 in/66 cm max (with pawn attached). He'll be scraping his head on the teeth with Battle Cat. Essentially, it's pretty much a straight carry over from the vintage toy proportions. Not the ideal, but sufficient.

According to the plans, the door opening is exactly 8.950" in height.

But keep in mind, we will need to subtract the thickness of the door, so realistically the opening will be closer to 8.6". The shortest I could pose my combo is 8.5", so it's going to be very tight fit.

EDIT - Ok, so the template shows the height of the door on the reverse (inside) as being only 5.5" in height, so now I have no idea what to think.

Yeah you're right about the door thickness. I think that 5.5 is a typo though.

Call me crazy, but CC's secondary clamp looks kinda similar to the old Marshal Bravestarr guns... Looks great overall! Best case scenario for Clamp Gramps.

We also badly need a new face sculpt for He-Man. New haircut isn't helping how flat that portrait is now.

 

[Dollmanron]

Is Clamp Champ holding that weapon in his left hand or is it his left hand?

 

[Eamon]

I actually introduced a buddy to the Bravestarr movie last night. It's so awesome.

What's great about that NA He-Man is that it brings us one step closer to the 'ultimate He-Man' figure I have been raving about for ages on the podcast.

And we don,t know for sure what size that door way will be?!

 

[Kuzeh]

What do you mean by ultimate He-Man Eamon?

BTW, Mattel had this on display today...

Who's Horde member is this from?
Vintage Hordak had a white one... maybe Filmation variant?

 

[Eamon]

Are you not listening to Roast Gooble Dinner Kuzeh? For shame!!

Didn't Mantenna have a white crossbow or was that Hordak?!

I believe it was Hordak, but who knows what could have been meant by that.

I can't wait for CG, I hope it gets a ton of pre-orders and exceeds expectations. I really want to see Snake Mountain happen. This is just the kind of thing the line needs, that fans need to see- stick it out guys!

I like that NA He-Man has a wrist hinge, that's awesome, but a new head sculpt would have been nice.. I can see why they kept it that same for unity purposes though. It makes me think any other variants will be equally uninteresting to me b/c again, the face will the same sculpt. I'm fine with the first He-Man figure.

Ultimate He-Man:

New face sculpts with more detailed and distinctive facial features x 2.
New shaggier slightly longer hair
Articulated wrists
Battle worn and painted weapons (as per original card back).
Battle worn harness with some extra details.
detailed Sword scabbard
Ankle dagger.
Unique packaging.

I have been harbing on at Eric (4HM) for one for ages and NA He-Man means we could be a step closer so fingers crossed!!

That would definitely be Ultimate! Though I think they could have handled the wrist joints better, like Marvel Legends. No biggie though, as long as they get the job done.

I've missed the past few episodes after Power-Con...
Hordak had the white crossbow...

I like that idea!!

I suspect the crossbow could be Filmation Hordak that comes with Imp leading the 6 figure Filmation Sub/releases in '13

We are also supposed to get 2 more fully tooled figures

Pre-order for Castle Grekskull starts at noon EST, but did everyone read all the details? After all the talk of all the special features, it ends with telling you it could all change, but once you've ordered it you're locked in regardless. I think that's pretty dirty and more than likely it's going to happen.

 

[Kuzeh]

I don't care... I'll order regardless...
Worst case scenario, the accessories get released ala Weapon's Rack... no worries here...

 

[Eamon]

It's going to rock regardless what makes the cut so I am totally in!

Doublespeak Toyguru said that we wouldn't see anything less than what we were shown on the artwork but they could add more (from the mattypalooza video)

so yeah,if they cut back from what they shown,yeah that is shady

got my reissue King Greyskull Finialy Got the weapons pack.

Saddened I missed out on the weapons rack.

 

[Dollmanron]

I think I've asked this question before, but I'll ask again. My original King Greyskull's ankle broke (something I think I was told happened to a lot of people), what's the closest matching MOTUC figures that feet match his so I do a trade and fix him back up?
