Masters of the Universe Classics

[teemu]

These two might be where I draw the line with my vintage collection. They are just barely above the Meteorbs and far below the rest of the crew. I may just pass.

thinking about that myself...it will save us $80 each..you know they will be charging $60 for this plus tax/shipping

 

[xequae]

Yeah, I'm undecided on them. They turned out pretty cool for what they are, but they never excited me that much.

 

[Zodach]

They really belong in the same category as the Star Sisters, Mo-Larr, and the Mighty Spector in my collection - which is to say I won't have them. Even being in the vintage MOTU collection can't save them for me.

 

[Kuzeh]

They look really good!

 

[SonOfHeMan]

They look really cool, I'm definitely buying them, I'm just curious as to the final pack out.

 

[Hellion]

I always HATED those two as a kid because of how ridiculous they looked but the fact that they come with regular bodies is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[KingGrayskull]

Mehhh... Kind of boring. Emiliano showed them how to make them awesome, yet they failed to deliver.

At least the stands would have been great.

Also the accessoires were great. The idea behind these two characters is the spinning. In my eyes the concept wasnt that bad, but the execution was not perfect in the vintage line.

A stand would have raised them a little with a better shelf presence. If the stand could interact with the respective accessoires you would have had another variantion on the shelf, another eyecatcher between all those muscle bodies... Anyway

Glad they went with legs, they look pretty good. Too bad we are not getting a meteorb set

 

[Eamon]

Had these guys as a kid and could never get them to spin well but I enjoyed them. They are part of the original MOTU. Odd why some see them as low as Might Spectre.

 

[Hellion]

They should have made Twistoids boots purple as well to break up all that blue.

 

[Zodach]

Odd why some see them as low as Might Spectre.

Just my personal opinion. Looking at these characters I don't like the vintage designs whatsoever. Short of the Four Horsemen re-imagining them in a more dynamic style, I knew I probably would not care for them. I understand that they were going to be included this year and expected them to follow this execution which is pretty consistent with the other vintage MOTU figures, I just don't like them.

I think that they haven't revealed all the accessories, there's some that were mentioned but not shown. I hope that means we're going to see everything in the Emiliano mock up.

 

[Kuwahara]

Well, I'm disappointed. Only because I was expecting something a little more unexpected, considering we all knew these guys were coming at some point.

I think that the rest of the year is going to be pretty predictable, which is both a blessing and a curse.

 

[Kuwahara]

With a little luck, they will have a few things at SDCC that will blow us away. Maybe it's a save the best for last type situation. I'm not interested in the 2016 line so, I hope to see some grand finale type items revealed soon for MOTUC.

Normally I'm not into surprises, but I wouldn't mind being pleasantly surprised with something NOBODY was expecting, not even the folks in the know who have obviously been silenced by Mattel this time around.

 

[teemu]

Well we have Talon Fighter and Snake Mountain (in 2016) to look forward to

 

[Motuxmen]

So The Loyal Subjects have Masters of the Universe Action Vinyls coming! (these are amazingly fun figures- see their TMNT Actions)

SDCC Motu Classics exclusive gets revealed next week (flying fists he-man/terror claws skeletor)

2016 lineup looking like Granita,Dylamug,Hans Hammer Holder,Robo-Woman,Lodar

Wasn't it confirmed to be the spinning tops? Weird.

 

[Kuwahara]

Well we have Talon Fighter and Snake Mountain (in 2016) to look forward to

If the Talon Fighter is only coming out in 2016, then that sucks. We need another vehicle this year and SM should at least be revealed with pre-orders starting during SDCC.

 

[Zodach]

I think Teemu was referencing 2016 for Snake Mountain. I would expect Talon Fighter at the end of this year considering the picture we saw a couple months ago looked pretty final.

Yeah,I meant Talon Fighter this year..

they also revealed more vehicles possibly coming in QnA (Rotar and Attak Track as highly possibles in 16)
