Did you guys see the video of the MattyPalooza panel?
They had Modulok misspelled as MODUKOK and I am not kidding!!

I saw that well that picture could be titled Modukok

 

[Shai]

Modulok was my favorite MOTU toy as a kid and this will be bought... Tempted by Mantenna and that demented Pink rabbit too. Lol

It's nice to know the Horde Troopers are 100% new sculpting even under the chest armor.

10 to 1, that torso ends up on new adventures skeletor next year under his armor.

1 to 1, that becomes my base torso for a Techno custom.

 

[Customikey]

I'm actually considering a sub this time around! Mantenna, Modulok, and Two Bad are grails.

 

[dedguy]

Mantenna is this year.

HORDE TROOPERS 2-Pack

So the Four Horsemen designed the helmets to be positioned correctly on the figures, but in production Mattel placed them too high. I wonder if this is more great work from the Mattel design team.

 

[dedguy]

I think that's just how the helmet is posed since it's on a standard ball joint.

 

[Khev]

I believe the helmets are adjustable. They just need to be futzed properly.

I'm pretty sure the guys at the Fwoosh said that's as low as the helmet would go when they moved it around after getting it out of the display case.

Seems there must be a way to go lower if you look at those horseman proto pics

 

[Kuzeh]

Yeah, as usual, some people are making issues of nothing...

 

[Zodach]

I think those Horsemen proto pics are just that, prototypes. The final product is what was in the display case at Comic-Con and there is a noticeable difference. I wouldn't say it's nothing Kuzeh, but it's not that big of a deal. I much prefer the slightly sunken look of the prototype Horde Troopers which better matches the vintage figure.

 

[Khev]

There was a youtube video where Toyguru was reefing on one of the Horde helmets and put He-Man's head in its place. IIRC you could adjust the helmet.

 

[lerath666]

Just tilt the hemlet forward slightly?

 

[Kuzeh]

Exactly...

 

[Zodach]

Just tilt the hemlet forward slightly?

The helmet doesn't go that far forward according to the Fwoosh.

 

[Kuzeh]

Here's what they said:

We also got to play a bit with the Horde Trooper and the good news is that he can move his head down a bit so the “eye” can be partially covered by the collar.

Lord Dactus, Batros and Standor will be my orders this time around. I'm slowly getting yanked back into this line.
