Good ideas! Order placed!
Light a candle. That's what Hordak would do!
Or maybe set fire to a thatched-roof cottage.

Mattel has even said that the production Hordak will have a bright silver belt to match the vintage version. Man-At-Arms even comes with a sword and gun from the original Grayskull weapons rack. They attach to his backpack. Mattel's attention to detail and nods to the vintage line is staggering!

I was cleaning out the basement and found most of my old MOTU stuff. Here's a pic. I didn't take the time to find all of the gear that isn't shown on them.
Awesome pic. Looking at this shot, between me and my buddy that lived across the street, we had about everyone one here, plus Castle Greyskull and Snake Mountain. There were some epic battles that were decided upon in the mid '80's back in the house I grew up in.

you know, i wish they would have changed tri-klops' sword. if i remember correctly he had a sword with a regular silver blade on the vintage card back art. not that green plasticy looking thing. i was hoping they would have changed it for this release.

i have no idea where my Castle GreySkull or Snake Mountain or the rest of my He-man figs are...probably sold at a yardsale while I was in college.
That's what happened to mine. I think I actually witnessed it, and pocketed the $20 or $30 and bought a few GI Joe figures...

One of my favorite Christmas memories was when my family traveled to spend it with my Grandmother and Grandfather in Texas. We spent most of the holidays at home, so that year was special for many reasons.
I was grandmother's favorite and when I woke up on X-mas morning, there was Snake mountain, a healthy amount of figures and some vehicles too! I was even wearing MOTU pjs. I was on cloud 9 that day. With grandmother being gone now, I will always look back fondly on that day, not just for the toys, but for being able to spend it with her and at her house.

That's great!
I didn't even notice the weapons. Mattel is definitely climbing on my list of favorites.

I actually had the Eternia playset and darn near every figure ever made.
Then I gave them all away.
Eternia rocked!

Funny thing is none of my stuff was ever sold at yard sales... but I played with my toys and the end product isn't worth much either

I had a nearly complete and pretty mint collection, had to give them up to little kids (for free) when I moved.
I went to my folks house last November and in my former room I still had Castle Grayskull, and a lot of about 10 figures...
I couldn't bring all of them with me...
Maybe next time!!
Here's a few shots of my 200x collection though!

I mean, yeah I have my He-Man(s), Beast Man(s) and Skeletor(s), I was just wondering for a few fellow freaks that didn't get there's
I didn't get mine, why do you think i'm so hopeful of a re-release down the road

yeh i would like a re-release as well. it would be awesome too for all the ebay scalpers out there. i really hope that that when they re-release them then they dont change a thing just the packaging.

I'm not a MOC guy, so the packaging (while i'd hope it stays the same) doesn't affect me. Just as long as the figures are the same, no repaints... etc.

I think the word from the panel was that they would change packaging and possibly accessories to keep the original release unique, but without having to offer a wacky repaint. I wasn't there but I skimmed a lot of reports.
My main reason for going to NYCC was to reaquire HM and BM. The scalping prices are crazy but in the long run that demand is very good for all of us. Especially if the re-release is a package-only variant. The level of consideration that the Matty team is giving to the fans should be the example for everyone taking on retro licenses.

Hordak would look really pimp along side a candle!

OMG, I totally forgot about that weapons rack, this really brings back the kid in me!

Had a near complete mint condition collection as well and sold them at a yard sale right before going to college for $50 in one of my fathers army camp bags
