Masters of the Universe Classics

[Arachne]

King G is coming back around except this without the electronics so Intl. folks can get him. I'm still cherry picking heroes but I'm all over the villains!

By the time they start POP figures I'll have to double up on them because my daughter's gonna want 'em too. She loves her some She-Ra!

Bring on She-Ra! I really hope they can do her look closer to the Filmation style (since it was used in later mini comics and in all those Golden books). After seeing this Adam Hughes' She-Ra, I really want one closer to the toon style.

if your looking for cases for the MOTU Classics....go here https://www.zoloworld.com/html/protective_cases.html

problem is they are 4.99 each plus shipping, but I hear they are nice

Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for. I wouldn't mine buying about 10 of these.

Here are my MOTUC videos I have uploaded right now. I plan on doing Merman tomorrow and have it up Friday. Then Faker once I get him in. Then its all about getting the rest of the figures.

by the way, the occult/witchcraft is NOT fantasy....its a practiced religion and been taught by demonic influence for thousands of years. There is only one truth, and that through Jesus Christ

Damn. And I though I was potentially being to too overtly political for SSF by suggesting Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart custom head sculpts.

 

[Star Puffs]

It looks like He-Man and Skeletor are coming back in the Fall. With the exception of King Grayskull it looks like all will be given a chance at retail. I'm in it this time for keeps.

I hope they will not be $20 each at retail. I loved She-Ra and MOTU as a kid and would definitely buy this line closer to $10 per figure. Selling out to quickly at Matty Coll. and the scalper prices on eBay have turned me off thus far.

I don't believe there's any Arian or Nazi symbolism in He-Man anymore than I believe Neo (The Matrix) or Robocop are Jesus figures, and yes I've heard those arguments as well. You can draw comparisons between anything if you stare long enough.

What were we talking about here again?

Exactly. There might be influences (well, I'm not so sure about Robocop!), but that's just part of what makes the story and character so interesting.

However, just because the Matrix derives so much influence from the Bible (among other philosophies) doesn't mean it's trying to influence kids to believe it in, nor should people make the same assumptions about MOTU or Harry Potter just because there are some wizards involved. Some people are really making too much out of this. I mean, really now.

On topic: I'm loving Webstor!

I second that motion.

On a unrelated note, but on topic. Webstor is up on Matty with pics and Bio.

Wow! Webstor looks sweeeeet! I like the mass the extra legs take up in the side shots, they don't look like flimsy little add-ons.

Did Adam Hughes do a version of that picture with more paint or is there just that semi-rough image? Either way it looks great!

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Just need King Hiss to complete the triple threat! God, I love bad guys!!!

The EVIL Trinity! I can dig it.

Here's a bigger pic. Very cool.

So back to that idea I had of someone doing a custom of the Spirit of Grayskull.. Id be willing to get one off eBay to get this thing rolling provided we had someone that would cast the figure as a put it together yourself kit that could cast without flaws and 2. copyright information could be changed some how to signify it is a custom.

WIth Everything in this post, I whole-heartedly agree Teemu, go back to our early discussion and read my post with the spoiler tags for what I beleive, and, i applaud you for adding that it's your Belief. i cannot, and Willnot Fault you for a belief.

Now that that's out of the way, Let me say that I'm eagerly awaiting the Arrival of king greyskul

Perhpas have him cast in a color other than the smoky blue? just a thought?

 

[Memnoch]

You got a Grayskull too lerath? And as for the color of the Spirit.. any suggestions? Was it ever in the MYP show?

 

[Nerdy Black Guy]

I hope they make a Keldor figure where you can switch the heads. I was going to try and get the 2002 version but it cost $300.00 on eBay.

I'm checking Hordak out tonight. I thought he might be the first four star MOTUC figure...but you'll have to read the review to find out!

I also have a guest review up from Jeff Parker, covering the new Enterbay Bruce Lee as Kato. You can find all the reviews at the usual:
