Masters of the Universe Classics

Just a heads up - Alex Ross Art is selling the 2014 SDCC Sketchbook Hardcover Variant on Amazon.com. This sketchbook features front and back cover artwork of He-man and Skeletor. I do not believe the interior of the sketchbook has any other MOTU artwork from Alex Ross, but I have not seen it in person. It probably has a lot of his Marvel and DC artwork, which I also enjoy.

This book was $50 at Comic-Con so the markup is minimal and it has been signed by Alex Ross. There are only 400 copies total including those sold at Comic-Con. The direct link is below:

Here is my SDCC haul which includes said Sketchbook.

 

[Eamon]

Oh and got this too...myaaah!

 

[Eamon]

The Sketch book does not have any MOTU in it at all.

Thanks for confirming Eamon! I figured that was the case, but I enjoy Alex's artwork so the book is definitely worth adding to my collection. I only wish there were some 11x17 prints of He-man and Skeletor available.

Congrats on the SDCC haul by the way. I thought you weren't attending though? Did you have a friend pick those up for you?

Aye, had a friend who was good enough to sort me out.

I think Alex Ross's He-Man is great (though he is missing his bracers) but I am not feeling the Skeletor one that much.

Very odd he did these are they are credited to Mattel.

In an ideal world I would've loved if he finished his original comic cover for 2003. That was badass but unfinished.

So, just throwing this out there - I'd like to trade for a Lookie/Kowl, SDCC Hordak w/book (or just the regular Imp with no Hordak would be okay), Goat Man and Clamp Champ.

 

[JonWes]

Anyone in the Chicago area going to the showing of the Toy Masters doc? I'm so excited to finally see it!

 

[Zodach]

Wow! That's actually getting released? You'll have to let me know what you think of it JonWes. I would love to go see it buy Chicago is about a 6 hour drive.

 

[Eamon]

I hope it gets a Netflix release or something later on. Myself and Emiliano did the theatre poster for it.

Tug O War was just trademarked....could be 2015's spirit of Hordak chase figure

Also Uncle Montork/Dre-elle may be an outside the sub item in '15

Tug O War is some yellow dressed dude who plays tug-o-war with the masters in the comics

I... I can't even believe they'd make Tug O War guy dressed in yellow. I just can't. But trademarks cost money to register so.... wow.

So he's some random guy from a mini-comic?

 

[Shropt]

And from that same story came the story of Battle Bones. Never knew it was so sad. I actually had 2 of these as a kid because I loved it so much.

 

[teemu]

Tug O war is a repaint cash grab...people will buy it just because he's in the Mini Comic

 

[Battle Ram Man]

If we get Tug O War but not Masks of Power demons, rioting should follow

 

[Kuzeh]

NA Skeletor arrived! Happy to report that it looks amazing!!
Also upgraded BD Faker!!

 

[teemu]

Best part of NA Skeletor is that head sculpt

 

[dedguy]

Chest armor doesn't look half bad there.

 

[Kuzeh]

Is not bad at all... kick-ass figure!!
I can only hope we see Discs of Doom Skelly too...
