>TQ: If there's another $300 crowdfund, is there anything you'd want it to be?every dinosaur in one go, or a couple of vintage vehicles all for 300, maybe. Beyond that, no. They've shown us that they can put out a Fright Zone at $90 still pending any new tariffs. 300 was a ridiculous number.
Apparently the movie is good but its more comedy like gotg and thor ragnarok so don't expect a serious movie like Idk, dune.Trailer is rumoured for October with Tron Ares
>>11555438Exactly. If $300 is Mattel's minimum, it can't be something like a simple clamshell playset.So like, if Mattel thinks they can't sell any more PoP at retail, I'd rather have an "Entrapta and Octavia capture the Rebellion!" crowdfund where if enough people back it, you unlock 15 figures than wait for Mattel Creations to drip feed 15 more Filmation designs that may or may not be PoP over the next 5+ years.
>>11555449honestly, why doesn't Mattel do this? Set it at a price where there's more profit in that option rather than shipping them all individually.
King Hiss is so weird in the mini-comics.The premise of the toy is that he wears a heroic human suit so heroes will let their guard down for his sneak attacks. He uses his human suit to trick He-Man once in "King of the Snake Men!", then in every subsequent appearance, he's just wearing his human hoodie and pants around the house in front of Skeletor and his own followers.
Does anyone here got Vypor and can tell me how to pose him so he just stands? For the life of me I can't get him to stand up. This is ridicules his feets are so large this should not be a problem. Even the high heel girls don't give me issues like this.
>>11555468Loose joints?
>>11555468Sorry his legs and part of his torso are obscured by Fang-Or here, but I just spread his legs a bit and he's stable.By the way, does anyone have headcanon for these snakes? I think it was last thread that someone suggested Rattlehood's life was saved by He-Man in a battle and he defected, basically BW Dinobot.
>Confronted by a band of Snake Men (such as Skeletor)>The Snake Men are Evil Warriors
>>11555416This upsets me so much. I already bought two at full price...
>>11555409>TQThere's only three things I'd be in support ofGigantisaurus Concept art haunted castleMinicomic Circle of Doom inspired arena playset
>>11555470I think his boot swivels and his left knee are a bit loose buy comparison but not so much that it should keep him from standing. How would I fix that?>>11555474Are you sure he is still standing? Looks like his necro bros are holding him up.
>>11555487>Minicomic inspired arena playsetAt 6,000 it unlocks Twistoid and RotarAt 8,000 , LodarAt 10,000 , Garn
>>11555503Replace Rotar and Twistoid with either Rana, a duo or trio of Kobolds or the Gyro Machine and that sounds goodI am a firm believer that nothing vintage (outside Eternia for the obvious reason of its size) should be linked to any crowdfund. Every fan who wants any given vintage toy should have the opportunity to get it, and not everyone is going to be ready willing and able to support an expensive crowdfund to get them during whatever window Mattel randomly picks.
>>11555496>How would I fix that?I wish I knew. I had a similar problem with Ninjor and Stinkor and I just sold both and bought new ones.
>>11555509Good point.
I want legs for the Zoids.But I don't want those damn Man-E-Faces legs Classics overused, whose curved design don't resemble Twistoid's upper body.Truly a dilemma.
>>11555519I'd like to know both if Emiliano was working for Mattel when this was drawn and if it was drawn before Classics made Twistoid.Because if the answer to both questions is "yes", then wtf Mattel.
>>11555447>GOTG and RagnarokWelp there goes whatever shred of optimism I had left. Fwiw I'd ideally like to get a MOTU movie with the tone of Sorbo's Hercules series, and the visuals of the filmation cartoon.
>>11555519What legs would you have preferred, multibot's?
>>11555535https://youtu.be/GcVrttrXQD8?si=cMRJioPR8z4iE-1uThey're remaking DeathstalkerAnyone with no faith in MotU 2026 take a look at this.
>>11555466Why? You can only fool someone once. And it morphed into being a stronger snake-form. Just like any Conan villian.
>>11555536Yes, Multi-Bot's tread legs.They could share clamp hands/forearms too.
>>11555528>>11555561>Twistoid being made with Multi-Bot parts>he came out of a machine Skeletor and the Snake Men stole from Man-At-ArmsDuncan, you stole that from Modulok!
Roboto, Extendar and Rotar want to go out with women.Skeletor mind controls these three women into fighting them.
General question for deepcut lorefags since we're posting Italian comic pages randomly nowWhat foreign media original characters are worthwhile enough bring back and/or include in Origins?Just to get the ones I'm actually familiar with out of the way:>Anti-Eternia stuff from German audio plays is already a fixture>UK comics had Scrollos and I think that's where Keclar came from too?>Brazil had Shezar>Italy had MinoxWhat else you got?
>>11555543Anyone else think of this too?
>>11555609Now I can't unsee it
>>11555591>Italy had MinoxAlso the Snake Goddess, who the author of the "Viper's Vice" Origins minicomic dug out.Her fiction is dumb and as a toy she'd be pretty similar to Lady Slither, but the Medusa head is much cooler.
>>11555416I still don't want it. It's ugly and I don't like when they put glaze on the figure to make it shiny.

>>11555449Imagine we could get crowdfunds for multi pack of 15-20 figures. What ideas you would have. I'd assume those packs should have some kind of theme and not just randomly throw Queen Marlena, Goat Man and Dylamug together.

>>11555952They have long tongues you know
Besides Trap Jaw, Beast Man, Shokoti, Evil-Lyn and Skeletor, who do you hope or expect the bosses of the 12 stages of Dragon Pearl to be?I give the highest odds to Kobra Khan (he's seen in a cut scene of Central Tower rising from underground), Hordak (we see She-Ra with the He-Man, MAA and Teela sprites, implying she's playable) and Mer-Man just because he's Mer-Man.If it were up to me, I'd want to round it out with Stinkor, Ninjor, Blast-Attak and Scare Glow, but I think it's more likely to be Tri-Klops, Webstor, Whiplash... maybe Tuvar and Badrah who get fused into Two Bad for their failure and fight you with a new life bar.

So was Bowena the result of Mattel executives showing the Filmation staff that "female Robin Hood" design, and then everyone forgot because that figure never moved forward in production? It wouldn't have been the first or the last time.
Q: Do you like mash-up designs of crossovers and would you simply prefer to get regular versions of characters but on MOTU buck?
>>11556566Regular versions on MotU bucks.
>>11555591These characters are from a different issue of Shezar's Brazilian comic.They're good guys living on another planet, so perhaps too niche to revive with toys.
>>11556566Regular versions. In a perfect world there would be some accessories you could out on to Motu them out.
>>11556566Just keep doing the thundercats thing and we can all pretend to care about the Eternia armor designs
>>11556566Regular versions! They're more fun to swap around that way than coming with Eternia gear.
>>11555409>TQ>>11556582Would Brazilian shit be a good crowdfund? It's niche, but if you only need minimum 6000 like the last crowdfunds, surely they could hook at least that many fans? Like, let's say the core crowdfund is Origins Gorgone for $150-200 (Haslab Giant Man having been $200) depending on if you scale her 16 inches like a vintage giant or go bigger to 24 inchesTier 1 unlock is Shezar (comes with her full fish form as accessory)Tier 2 unlock is Zal/Bruar 2 packTier 3 Shezar Primitive Mode figure (but what id do is say that Tier 1 Shezar would have an alternate primitive head, BUT if you get to tier three the alt head would get upgraded to a full figure since the primitive mode had a completely different body than her base form)
>>11556566It depends on the IP being crossovered with. Turtles didnt need standard releases, the entire appeal was giving them the MOTU makeover. Thundercats, although I would have preferred some wilder original designs for the crossover, is largely just toon accuracy + optional armor to sweeten the deal. Even then I would have preferred the cats on the standard MOTU buck but we crossed that rubicon awhile ago.
>>11556561It sounds pretty onbrand for filmation at the time.
>>11556475Thanks for the heads up anon. I never get tjred of that pic btw. Easily one of the greatest partswaps to come from the general.>>11556554GetFuckingHype
>>11556598I feel like reason Thundercats were handled in this were was because a) line was short b) TC already fit on Eternia and c) market wasn't already oversaturated with TC figures.Of course, DC still has few advantages. One is lack of hard defined costumes allowing Mattel to fudge detail for parts reuse. The other is that heroes like Superman or Aquman wont need 2 sets of suits like Lion-O did. Sups would need cape at best, everything else is just built into his buck.
Would Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat be a better crossover?On the one hand, MK has more "R rated MOTU" vibes. There's a reptile disguised as a man, someone with a skull instead of a head, Shao Khan looks like a human cosplaying Skeletor or Hordak and Kitana is his Adora...OTOH, SF on Origins bodies could be better value, since they might do things like give Ryu/Ken cloth gis (pic half related). Ken with removable gi would be a stealth "Jungle He-Man" if he had a beltless loincloth underneath.
>>11556652kek
>>11556652"She wouldn't look good bald."(The MSTed movie that line was from featured Alan Oppenheimer in 1976, just before his career changed to almost all voice acting.)
>>11556566Regular versions
>>11556653Mortal Kombat, especially 90's MK, suits MOTU's aesthetics considerably better than SF. The gore is the only obstacle keeping it from working out. Short of Mattel establishing some sort of "mature" off shoot of MOTU, I dont see it panning out.
>>11556653Mr iguana looks like this?
Sorceress: He-Man, help! Mer-Man has taken over Castle Grayskull and invited evil forces in!
>>11556475Good stuff man, ive only watched one episode but it was better than i thought it would be. Kinda weird seeing snuka in a kids show but wendi richter was a cool touch, moolahs outfit was funny.
>>11556862Good. Grayskull is practically designed for evil
DC comic aside, should Despara be the identity Adora was raised under, or her manipulated back into the Horde after becoming She-Ra?It seems even the artists and mini-comics writer aren't sure what she was like pre-She-Ra.
>>11556972I'm fine with Despara being literally anyone to be honest. I don't care enough about She-Ra to care about the identity being inextricably linked to her. It can be Adora, a clone Adora after she turned good, an OC that takes the mantle after Adora, or any other idea anyone has for the identity.
>>11556862>Implying the bee and the black guy are evil>>11556972She needs to be a Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde, but I don't know how that would work since She-Ra's a nudist
>>11556985>a clone Adora after she turned good,Intriguing
when the fuck are these coming out
Can anyone let me know if the 200x power sword fits in the hands of Masterverse figures?
>>11556996And CGI art book sort of implied Despara might have been Marlena in that Universe, so really, sticking with "she's evil Adora" forever just because it came first is kinda doing the identity a disservice when you could do literally AYTHING with it since "Despara" is technically not even a real person
>>11557009
>>11557000What a shame that Dragonore is just another premium-priced retro-jointed line.
>>11557013It always blows my mind how much hate these guys get compared to Zolo which are objectively shittier and cost more.
>>11557013This should be Mattel's big incentive to fast track Witchy Tits in Sketchbook Series, to show up Formo the same way the did by releasing Sharella after Formo did their tribal fur bikini girl
Can we admit the Masterverse line landed with a thud and didn't really recover? Also what the fuck happened with the NE BA Skeletor? It's like they produced 50 copies and then the tooling vanished off the face of the Earth.
>>11557063The New Eternia figures are one of my favorite figure lines, but I'm clearly a small minority. I'm nostalgic for the characters in MotU, not the original toys themselves, so I like MV a lot more than Origins. I think that the line starting as a tie-in to that Kevin Smith shit and the first few waves not being great really torpedoed it's chances.
>>11557068>I'm nostalgic for the characters in NotU, not the original toys themselves,Based. Who are your favorite characters?
>>11557075I'm a total normie, so nobody too obscure. Aside from He-Man and Skeletor, I'd say Ram Man, Fisto, Sy-Klone, and Moss Man. I actually like almost every "major" character, since I feel like they were all pretty well realized beyond just their initial gimmick. I can't think of many other properties with relatively minor characters like Jitsu that I still think are cool enough to want to learn more about.
>>11557068>First few waves based on Revshit >Most of those figures didn't look very good>Was beaten to market by Origins which hooked fans from the start, so when MV finally did hit shelves most fans had already chosen >All this only about a year after Classics ended and you still had a ton of fans still whining for more of that in the 7 inch scale Masterverse literally never stood a chance when you look at the whole picture.
Knowledgeable He-Anons, I would appreciate some help. Which She-Ra figure would you consider the best around, especially personal preferences between the New Eternia versus the Deluxe Princess of Power one? Also if anyone has either version, would you be so kind as to show a scale comparison to something else like a Mythic Legions, Marvel Legends etc. I've been struggling to find between-line scale comparisons in youtube reviews.
>>11557098This one.Otherwise, try and track down the Classics She-Ra.
>>11557009Reminds I had once idea that Grizzlor is tranformed Marlena, like some kind of werewofl curse. And the reason Grizzlor is terrified of its reflection >>11556972 is because it's unable to face horror it became.
>>11557013That's a real witch
>>11556856>Don't...move
>>11557046>to show up Formo the same way the did by releasing Sharella after Formo did their tribal fur bikini girlHuh? Venatica is still a more interesting design that Sharella. The latter is just Battleground Teela as a brunette in a fur bikini top instead of metal. The former is dressed in bones with bare feet and little calf strings.
>>11557137Anyone here play Weaponlord as a teen?
6-figure wave of 2 waifus, a Warrior Beast and who cares.
>>11557068>I like MV a lot more than OriginsSame here. I gave up on Origins. Too many QC problems, and the articulation is shit.
Q: Does any parts reuse bothers you and you'd wish there was a new tooling used instead?
>>11557137Yeah, and which one got more attention?Sharella. So it's irrelevant how good you think it looks if no one gives a shit.
>>11557068>The New Eternia figures are one of my favorite figure lines, but I'm clearly a small minority. I'm nostalgic for the characters in MotU, not the original toys themselves, so I like MV a lot more than Origins.I'm with you on that, but I don't think MV has really delivered in terms of quality. Some of the sculpts and designs have been solid, but even the best of them have weird issues compared to Hasbro's better ouput (I'm not inviting brand shitposting, just stating I think the floor is low). Take the new Terror Claws Skeletor for example. It's almost cool looking but it's not "cool" enough to appeal to people that want MOTU to lean into the edgier pulp aesthetic like the 200X staction figures did, and it's not goofy enough to appeal to Classics/Origins diehards. Why does it even exist? A lot of the line feels somewhat uncommitted.I'm not even calling it bad. But the whole line just feels like an obligation or something more than Mattel putting its best foot forward in the action figure space. Origins was pretty much never impressive, but it did have a strong identity and a reasonable price point for most of its existence, distribution issues notwithstanding.
I just bought into Origins instead of Masterverse because they made working Battle Armor figures, Buzz Saw Hordak and Mosquitor. I wouldn't have bought a variant (or more) of every character if they hadn't canceled Mega Construx... I'd have rather just had the vast character roster of Classics, the bonus snakes, Sinners etc in smaller scale...
>>11557164I dont mind parts reuse in the least. I also recognize I'm in the minority in this however. The ideal compromise should be some reuse paired with new parts.
Just started looking into modern MotU figures, was dazzled by that Snake Sorceress Teela only to then find out, like fucking always, she's completely sold out of everywhere except like two EU stores that don't ship to the UK. Action figures are fucking depressing, it's literally always the one you want that is unobtainable.
>>11557184Also, some of the more desirable figures--like the vintage-style He-Man and Skeletor, or the NE Battle Armor Skeletor--disappeared like vapor. Why?I'm cautiously optimistic about the Origins 200X line, at least. More than I am Mondo's line, anyway.
>>11557270>the NE Battle Armor Skeletor--disappeared like vapor. Why?Because he was released in the same wave as 3 peg-warmers: Two females (Frosta & Evil-Lyn) and the ever boring Man-At-Arms, which meant that retailers ordered fewer cases.
>>11557164Plasmar is kinda lame
>>11557164The more heads get reused, the more ridiculous it is. It's one reason I'm happy Origins offered a fun alternative to Mer-Man sharing Stinkor's head.Like I can imagine Wun-Dar looks like He-Man because he was Randor's grandfather, but Teela coincidentally looking like "the Goddess" born thousands of years ago when she's not her clone? Rattlor is one of three named characters plus a troop type with identical heads? It gets to be a bit much.>>11557394I find it doubtful that the toy production team in 1988 would have even given him that "mestizo" skin tone, making him look even more like Fisto.
Do you like Screeech transforming into the Horde's 10-foot naked robot cult leader?
Or being Evil-Lyn's alternate form?
>>11557446>>11557447I don't even like Zoar being Sorceress' alt form and not being his own separate thing (like in the minicomics). But I've made my peace with it.But I really don't want Screeech to wind up getting permanently saddled with something similar. I'm glad the Evil-lyn thing is a footnote and the Motherboard was more "Screeech inspired" then being actual Screeech. She was more like a big idol.
>>11557446It was fine. I liked Revolution in general other than Skeletor's redesign. It was a massive improvement over Revelation.
>>11554471Following up on this. So first of all, I still think you moved the goal posts. We argued about this back and forth last thread and you didn't bust out this "they just can't use PoP in tv shows, everybody knows this" until after I posted those card backs. If you knew this the whole time, why wait to post that video?My impressions from watching that video is that it still feels like we are missing part of the puzzle as to what's going on.>narrator consistently using "apparently", "perhaps" and other "IF this, than that" type language.Just pointing out that these are words jump out as assumptive language>the contracts are not publicly available>taking Kevin Smith's word at face value>Revshit tanked and caused a backlash and there was only two parts of a supposed trilogyIt possible that Netflix didn't want to pay for the rights to something a show that wasn't connecting with fans. It seemed like by teasing Despara they were going to set up Adora and She-Ra.>why did Scott have to pay Dreamworks royalties if Mattel owns toy rights but not TV rights?>why does the minicomics collection have a big Dreamworks logo on the back cover?I have the first edition from 2015. If Mattel owned toy rights, does that include mini comics? Does this mean that since 2015, Mattel bought back the rights to PoP because as I pointed out with the card backs there are no other companies logos on the PoP but they are on the Thunder Cats.
>>11557358You are completely making up stuff up. MV Frosta came out in the original packaging and BA Skeletor is in the new style.>>11557165Oh yeah everyone was posting their pics of Sharella after she sold out immediately.>>11557137>absolutely wouldI lift up that loin cloth and slide right in there like the joined power swords unlocking the jawbridge to Castle Grayskull. Formo knows how to make nice lady asses.
The first Dragonore waifu raises many questions about Skeletor's love life.
>>11557522>You are completely making up stuff up.You're right. I'm wrong. Poor memory due to old age and too little. Sorry!
>>11556652Is Panthro seriously missing the belt symbol or is that some factory error?
>>11557538a cat is fine too
>>11557164Generally speaking the more new parts that can help make figures distinct the better, but sometimes it just doesn't make sense conceptually and much of the time it doesn't make sense economically. The problem with parts reuse comes when budget means the line is trapped with bad decisions for a long time, as is the case with Masterverse in my opinion.
Found a bunch of ToG and older CC figures in clearance at WM tonight. $10 a pop for ToG Hordak, ToG April, CC Teela, CC She-ra fodder
>>11557557Hey nice
>>11557164>Q: Does any parts reuse bothers you and you'd wish there was a new tooling used instead?Well let's look at it this way: how many characters could share Roboto's torso before it bothered everyone? Extendar's? Rio Blast's? Dragstor's? Mosquitor's? Buzz Saw Hordak's? Blast-Attak's?Are 3 characters with Rattlor's torso and arm(s) plenty, or could more work?How unsatisfying would General Sunder be if he reused the "explode from a punch" Horde Trooper torso?
>>11557446I don't think anyone even remembers that terrible show happened.
>>11557686I remember and I'm still pissed off about it. This is my phantom menace and/or sonic 06.
>>11557686Revolution was alright.
>>11557234>>11557636 I'm not asking if you're generally against parts reuse, I'm asking if there are any specific examples where you wish Frog Monger had new shorts or something.Say you'd want Despara to have more accurate swords or Fang Man more cartoony head.
>>11557156That guy looks cool as fuck.
>>11556862Help me, Step-Merbro!

Everybody talking about why Masterverse failed. But no one said the big one>every He-Man hewd sculpt is awfulThe 40th anniversary one is pretty ok but still slightly off.
>>11557955Masterverse is cancelled?
>>11557955every singe He-man head in every line looks like a retarded Neandertaler
>>11557932Looks like an attempt to knock off a Ghostbusters gimmick.
>>11557961Stop it. You know what I mean you pedantic ding dong. >>11557962True, but the vintage ones look menacing. MV look like smiling retards.Yesterday I finally bought the BA He-Man with the beard. It was hars to say no to $7 on bbts. Fingers crossed thay he looks better in person.Gonna mash him together with King Keldor and hopefully he will be a passable King He-Man.
>>11557955I think Skeletor has had better luck in the head sculpt department. I even like the Revelation one okay, unlike almost everyone else it seems.My biggest issue with the line though is that the figures are just unpleasant to handle in terms of both tolerances and articulation design. Most of the joints just feel wrong. I haven't touched anything beyond the first New Eternia figures though. Maybe things have gotten better over the last few years but I don't pop in these threads often enough to know.
>>11557974Look at the early Horde symbol. This would have come out in 1985, before The Real Ghostbusters.
>>11558002I agree with you about the Revelation Skelly. I hated the pictures of him but found him at a discount place for cheap and was really surprised how much personality he had and how much better he looked than in the promo photos.
>>11557955The Revolution Battle Armour one is is pretty good if you heat it up and reshape it.
>>11557446>>11557925Watched the show.Enjoyed Revolution more than Revelation (which I couldn't even finish the final episode of because it was so awful).Giant Robot Mommy was a welcome addition to the character roster. Better than 90% of Axel's new characters. In all honesty, the Motherboard cult was one of the only things in the first season I didn't think was complete ass.
>>11558026The Motherboard cult built Blast-Attak, and Mosquitor was going to be on guard outside Snake Mountain while they were running it in Skeletor's absence, until writer's room consensus got him talked out.
>>11558030>MosquitorDamn, that would have been really cool to see him in animation finally. I'm guessing it was nixed because it gave away the twist that the Motherboard cult were puppets of the Horde.
>>11558030>>11558038I can't remember where I heard it so take it with a grain of salt (probably the .org before it died), but Mosquitor was also supposed to be in the flashback of He-Man and Teela fighting Whiplash, so well prior to the cult stuff,which wouldve made Mosquitor an Evil Warrior in Rev. I distinctly remember people bemoaning it and glad they removed it because they'd "have to explain it" rather than just rolling with "this is a different continuity"
>>11557808Nta anon but my grip with parts reuse is when they do it with too many accessories and weapons.With body parts its more forgivable because hey they are all generally humanoid creatures so its easy to overlook. Everyone having the same axe, same swords and amour gets boring. Its even worse when its a specific thing like 200x Skeletor sword going to some random army builder.
>>11557808>I'm not asking if you're generally against parts reuse, I'm asking if there are any specific examples where you wish Frog Monger had new shorts or something.Oh, got it.I remembering wanting Frog Monger to have new shorts, since he was drawn on box art teases with a purple loincloth that was a wrapped textile like most real loincloths instead of the standard fur shorts, but now I can't find that art. Maybe I'm going crazy.Despara needed new swords instead of dual-wielding Tri-Klops because in Origins the female buck (doe?) hand sculpt is smaller than the male, causing a lot of accessory swapping to stretch the plastic.
>>11558026I'm now imagining Screeech living a double life as a Horde spy robot bird by day, and a deam-like robopussy cult leader who seduces Tri-Klops by night.
>>11558030FIrst Snake Men now Horde claim to make Blast Attak...Ironically only Skeletor didnt claim to build him. He got him from another dimension.>>11558044I always thought it was funny Necro Conda had claws from Snake-Armor He-Man. A literal anti-snake weapon.
>>11558094hasbro gave us the perfect toy for this.
>>11558101>necroYeah that's the kind of parts reuse that gets me. Explain to me using the lore why anti snake He-Man and a snake are using the same thing.Perhaps He-Man took it from a dead snake to use against the others?But I suppose its better than the vintage snake staff. That thing sucks hard. Would be totally useless in a fight.
>>11558132>Explain to me using the lore why anti snake He-Man and a snake are using the same thing.>Perhaps He-Man took it from a dead snake to use against the others?I mean, Plasmar hates Snakes so much he killed one who had brown scales and a green version of Sssqueeze's leg armor. That's his official lore.
>>11558138Touche.
>>11558138At which Ultimate Battleground did these events occur Scott?
>>11558171Second of course. By the 2 1/2 Ultimate Battleground, Plasmar was well established as wearing Tanglor's leg skin and armor. Read for example Lady Slither's bio where she didn't wound Plasmar in the thigh because of his Snake Man trophy armor.
>>11558237KekI can't tell if that's official lore or not but it sounds real so I'll believe it.
>>11558101>I always thought it was funny Necro Conda had claws from Snake-Armor He-Man. A literal anti-snake weaponSometimes you have Snake on Snake crimes.
>>11558295Masterverse has mogged the Origins releases of certain characters so hard.It's so frustrating because you can't have a single collection in-scale with itself if you want the working versions of characters with action features but just the coolest sculpt of those without.
Sword of Flaws #1 September 24 and Adra October 1, if they don't get delayed again.
>>11558102I really hope they pursue that direction with the TF crossovers and avoid the street fighter/sonic pitfall of just painting existing molds to look like the characters
>>11558378More like "Sword of wtf is He-Man doing with his right hand?"All of their postures are kinda weird.
>>11558412
>>11558378I want to be hopeful for this comic
>>11558030>The Motherboard cult built Blast-Attak>>11558038>the twist that the Motherboard cult were puppets of the Horde.I don't wanna give the writers too much credit to imply this was intentionally a hint, but in retrospect...>Rev Blast-Attak blows up when button on his chest was struck>Just like a vintage line Horde Trooper>That's your clue the Horde are behind it all

What is the consensus on this baddie?
>>11558456only the hands and maybe the elbows could be betterotherwise finally/10 and insta-preordershe doesn't have the weird legs problem, and her hood sort of fudges the slightly weird proportionssince she uses the bare buck without an armor overlay she is more petite and has more realistic wasp figurekinda want to give her balljoint/ballswivel replacement hands
>>11558456wanted her for years, this does everything a shadow weaver needs to do. preordered day 1!
Realistically, how many more characters do you think will get added to Origins before letting it die?There are 11 more characters from vintage MotU to remake after the upcoming Dragstor:Two Bad, Multi-Bot, Stonedar, Blast-Attak, Rotar, Twistoid, Saurod, Blade, Gwildor, Tytus and Megator.A Mattel employee said "Filmation isn't over" when the 200X refresh was shown off at SDCC, so we can expect that subline to get Mattel Creations slots. And both will have to share slots with other things like Axel OCs (pic related).I would guess at least 20 characters, not counting variants of existing characters (like Laser He-Man/Skeletor) before Mattel pulls the plug.
>>11558499why would they do it as long as it makes them money? just repaint again maybe make 1 new mold and do the next show too.
>>11558499i'm curious how well weird figures like terroar and g'rrasp didjust continue making deepcut characters and some donutsteels that are appealingt. buys lots of vinyl japanese monsters while knowing nothing of the sourcematerial because they're just neat fun toys with cool designs
>>11558138Couldnt they just paint it gold and call it chainmalt to protect from snake teeths?
>>11558499It's crazy to me how much this little fucker won me over.I haven't been this excited for an OC since Frog Monger. And it's even weirder that Monger has me hyped from the moment I saw him in boxart. Sting I wasn't impressed by anymore than any of Axel's other OCs do. But man, something really clicked when I saw the actual figure.
>>11558456what's her lore? Is she a friend of skeletor or orkos big sister?
>>11558456Supposedly Orko's stand works for her
>>11558531Yeah. She's Orko's sister who was jealous of him being Orko the Great, so she betrayed him and the planet Trolla to the Hordak during the Trolltimate Battleground and banished him to Eternia. She was made the Horde governor of Trolla until Orko got his powers back after being energized by the central tower and returned home to destroy her army of Dragoons to free the planet, at which point he depowered her by stealing her shadow, so she became the Shadow Weaver to steal other people's shadows and weave them into a replacement for her own
>>11558534she can't stand on her own?
>>11558540thank you very much
>>11558503>why would they do it as long as it makes them money?If it makes them a profit, the default is that they won't. But we don't know what kind of characters turn a profit: if Rio Blast sells no more units than Geldor despite needing new torso, hips, legs, forearms and backpack with moving parts, they might do a ton of OCs and existing deep cuts. If, to make up fake figures, there are only 11,000 Club Grayskull memberships so they made that many Sharellas yet some will take up warehouse space for a long time, they'll make fewer.
I'm sad for this guy warming pegs for so long. He's adorable.
>>11558555To allow her to "float" just above the ground
>>11558452Take the Formo pill anon. I have a bunch of them and really like them. They don't move like Origins but they don't need to. If they had come out in the 80s people would be paying hundreds of dollars for them now.
>>11558540You are on fire today Scott. Can you tell us how Buzz Off got his nickname instead of going by his real one?
>>11558583at least he and Stratos are army builders. Sorceress is in 'must have' tier for tooners. It's just Jitsus that my local resellers can't even give away.
>>11558651I’m surprised there’s no evil guy from Buzz-off or Stratos race?SeemsLike an easy repaint for Mattel.
>>11557962It's incredible. They all see that his nose seems short in the original cartoon and ignore the fact it's still proportional, so they give him a short nose and a massive upper lip, it's like nobody employs a single artist.
>>11558629nobody could understand or pronounce his nameand he kept harassing people when they drank sweet bevereagestheir family friendly explitives just kinda stuck as a name
I'm surprised I haven't seen more pictures using the new Fright Zone in here. Did you all skip it?
>>11558716Did Mattel even ship yet? BBTS seems to be ahead of others offering it.
>>11558716I got mine from BBTS but I'm waiting til October to open it and stuff candy down my throat.
Anons with WWE Superstars:How does Pig Head look in Rick Ride's robe?Frog Monger in shorts and Lou Albano's shirt for a Punk Frog look?
>>11558499>Axel OCs (pic related)Is Stingor confirmed as an Axel OC?>>11558524>It's crazy to me how much this little fucker won me over.Same, he's the only OC I'll be picking up since Frog Monger. Love him, love the concept, the colors, and the charming vintage inspired head-sculpt.
If I was writing an official MOTU series, I would bait the audience into thinking Webstor and Kobra Khan were a bara couple, then do an episode where Webstor lays eggs like in "Web of Evil".
>>11558894>Is Stingor confirmed as an Axel OC?Yeah. See >>11555075 last thread.
>>11558524So how Scorpia fans feel about Horde Scorpion being released just as CC line is cancelled.
>>11558969>Reptilax and Vypor's weaponsI swear, they were released on purpose with cheaper accessories so he can sell proper ones on the side.
>>11558976Nah, that's just because of the Mattel CEO's early life section. Axel is just capitalising on Mattel's cheapness.
Motu x Shrek when?>Shrek as He-Man>Donkey as Battlecat>Fionna as Frosta (this is toys so no rights issues)>Gingerbread Man-at-Arms>Three Little Pigs as Man-e-Faces>Lord Farquat as Faker King Randor>Rumple as Skeletor> Donkeys fuck buddy dragon as Granamyr>Fairy Godmother as Evil LynnIt's ogre. No other crossover can touch this.
>>11558974>So how Scorpia fans feel about Horde Scorpion being released just as CC line is cancelled.Weird Brooklyn accent: "I'm not crying."
>>11559050I would love that as much as the Scooby crossover
I need Mattel to make a Therapistor so I have someone to talk to about my problems
>>11559125Therapsid.
>>11559069Pretty cute isn't it. Feel free to add any ideas. It stared as a shitpost but then grew on me.
>>11559125>>11559139Looks like a good idea for a mount.
Howdy anons, colourist anon here. I made my own art for once. I know I'm not the first person to make this comparison, but I picked up the 2021 Eternia Mini figure yesterday and I love it, but I also cannot get the image of He-Man as a little gorilla dude, so I drew this and coloured it.
>>11559172Donkey Kong x Motu when?>Donkey Kong as He-Man>Diddy Kong as Orko>Dixie as Dree Elle>Candy Kong as Teela>the ostrich you ride as Battle Cat>King K Rool as BionatopsJk jk...couldn't help myself. Nice looking art Anon. Keep it up.
How come when the fandom asks for minicomic OCs, they're always from 1984 (OK, Procrustus from 83 got a Classics toy)?
How would you write a Powers of Grayskull series to make a compelling story?Like if He-Ro is the protagonist, what do you do with King Grayskull?
>>11559200Probably because that year the minicomics expanded past the core cast with new characters. I'm guessing anyways.>>11559206The whole Preternia timeline doesn't seem that clear to me. Where does Wundar fit in? I could see He-Ro and Grayskul existing at the same time and being allies or something.I always hesitate to post my story ideas here because Mattel is known for having sticky fingers with fan ideas.
>>11559213>The whole Preternia timeline doesn't seem that clear to me. Where does Wundar fit in?Wundar is from 100 years before Prince Adam was born, while Preternia is "eons ago".
>>11559206He-Ro becomes King Grayskull
>>11559228Hmm well how long is an eon anyways?Anyways, in my headcannon / sensual fanfiction He-Ro and Wundar exist at the same time. He-Ro is kind of a Zap Brannagin type who takes credit for the heroism stealing Wundar's thunder.He-Ro just has that look about him, you know. Like he's a temporary party member who can cast Lit 3 so he thinks he's the shit but there is no way he's got the stats to fight the final boss.
>>11559172This is exactly why I love the minis. The proportions on them are just perfect. I really regret not buying them, but I was taken by MCX MOTU and Origins at the time :'(
>>11559150Would a full on dreamworks crossover be too much? I can pretty easily imagine the dreamworks pantheon in MOTU fashion.
>>11559239I chuckled.
>>11559245>I can pretty easily imagine the dreamworks pantheon in MOTU fashion.Mows-Us with mowing action!Ram-Sieze with ramming head and capture claw!
>>11559242If you wanna do some trading, they are all over the dollar stores in leafland.>>11559250Look at his face and tell me that my characterization of him doesn't fit? That impractical weapon...he needs to show up after all the brawling, when the snakes are almost dead , zap them and then say "looks like i saved you again Wundar! You're welcome."
Masterverse sale today.
>>11559250>>11559257>Look at his face and tell me that my characterization of him doesn't fit? That impractical weapon...Is he holding the banister of a staircase?A tree with a gem on top? Is that why they retconned Moss Man in as a contemporary?
>>11559200ImportanceGeldor, Garn, Lodar and to a lesser extent Kex Queen were main characters in their comics.Compare that to "nameless snake crowd fillers", "nameless pink rock lady", and "nameless yellow ape guy in Twistoids comic". They're all non-entities
>>11559254He-Brew?
>>11559260Kek, we need a Scott AI to generate Classics Bios for every conceivable knick knack in Motu.As for Moss Man, I dont hate that he's old enough to have seen it all. But elevating him to a god is a bit much. I like him as an old entity that is patient and calm because he's seen the ebb and flow of Eternian history.
>>11559206There's a Grayskull Tower, so King Grayskull is the title of the man who owns it. No problem having him and He-Ro as allies.One important thing I'd want is to avoid Central Tower becoming what one anon called "Super Grayskull", controlled by a good sorceress who keeps out bad guys and lets good guys use it as a base. Build the Snake Men/good guys conflict up to the good (and neutral?) wizards sinking the Three Towers because KIng Hiss has gotten too far in Central Tower for anything else to depower him. Maybe have King Grayskull go down in a heroic sacrifice since he won't have his house anymore?
>>11559258I wouldn't buy these from dollar tree for $1.25 lol
They seem to be wanting to push the Great Black Wizard as a more important figure in Preternia than King Hiss.
>>11559239I like this guys timeline. And there’s plenty gaps to reveal later on in the line.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=T5bhQLNd2IA&pp=0gcJCRsBo7VqN5tD
>>11559341I'm so sick of these new characters.
Apparently we get Kinder Joy Masters of the Universe Funko figures next summerI wonder if they will be based on cartoon funkos or movie? Kinder Joy did Funko Harry Potter, DC, Jurassic World and now Stranger Things.
Problem 1: We have this King Grayskull character who was Boring He-Man in a 2003 cartoon episode, then He-Man's boring black ancestor in Valhalla in Revelation.Problem 2: Mattel/Axel are trying to add a Skeletor lookalike to Preternia.I propose a solution: King Grayskull was a black-skinned heroic enemy of the Snake Men who resorted to taking the power of evil as well as good to fight the Snake Men. A good magic-user killed him, but he continued to exist as a lich who goes by "the Great Black Wizard".
>>11559398See here >>11559374 for the current toy continuity of where Grayskull fits.
>>11558741>How does Pig Head look in Rick Ride's robe?
>>11558741>Frog Monger in shorts and Lou Albano's shirt for a Punk Frog look?Ali shorts (cloth), Great Muta pants, Cena jorts
One shot for fun
>>11559398King Grayskull turning into the Great Black Wizard with the power of grayskull (essentially what Skeletor could become if he won) being defeated by He-Ro would be kino, considering how much shit Zodac puts He-Man through to test him in filmation.This would also be another good "secret of grayskull."
We're never getting the second series of these masks, are we?
There's a healthy MOTU thread on /co/ we could spin lore off to temporarily.
>>11559258I think that Skeletor is almost pretty good. It's held back too much by Masterverse's quirks. I like it okay but I'm a Skeletorfag. I think the line's problem in general is that it isn't executed well enough to convert people. Blame Revelation if you want, but it's really on Mattel being Mattel.I got the MV Terror Claws Skeletor in today and it actually looks pretty awesome as a display piece; the details on the armor and the color choices are all stellar. As an action figure it still isn't all that fun to handle, though. Better than McFarlane probably but there's still Mattel's signature clumsiness about it. The line's improved but I'm a little surprised it's survived this long.
Assuming there will be an Origins Megator, would you want to buy Dragoon with new head, hips, tail hands, feet and a large enough set of bat wings on a shared body?Also rank Dragoon, Draego-Man and Ninjor as a dragonman.
>>11559544Are we talking dragon harems?
>>11559341I like the design but the name is stupid. It might as well just be an alternate Skeletor design anyway. Give him a unique weapon like a claymore or an axe or something and you could call him Shadow Slash Skeletor or whatever and no one would mind.
>>11559622Where the fuck is the marketing team at Mattel? In the 80s, when one of the guys would submit "Transparent Man" or "Black Widow Man" for approval, someone was there to say "no, these are Roboto and Webstor for release"Today, Axel submits "uh...Great Black Wizard" and they just stamp it and roll with it...either that or im unfairly blaming Axel and he's just submitting designs and marketing themselves are coming up with this shit
>>11559622>>11559629Awesome African Archmage
>>11559431That jacket is just amazing, superstars is the best classic wrestling line going if you ask me. >>11559544I hope we get a megator, hopefully not locked into a play set unlock tier and just a stand alone release with no crowd funding $300+ price tag. I only have the ninjor dragon and its awesome so right now its my #1 dragon.

>>11559697>not on amazon canadaI haven't been to these threads since Mossman made me quit because I am canadian Mattel can go fuck themselves so fucking hard. Its 220.50 dollars. 75 of those are for shipping. Goodbye for a few years cant wait to get fucked when he one thing I think looks cool brings me back.
>>11558969>>Is Stingor confirmed as an Axel OC?>Yeah. See >>11555075 last thread.That post actually say's he was an OC idea from someone named Sam Pak with contributions from Roy Juarez and Axel. So it wasn't his original design. That must be why I like him so much when Axel's other characters were all a pass for me. IMHO hopefully they let Sam and Roy work on any upcoming new OC's, not to mention any other designers working at Mattel. It would be nice to see someone other than Axel having the opportunity to contribute to new MOTU figures.
>>11559868>That post actually say's he was an OC idea from someone named Sam Pak with contributions from Roy Juarez and Axel. So it wasn't his original design.>ideaSaying "how about a Scorpion dude for the Horde" isn't designing a figure.90% of his Classics designs were Scott's ideas that he then fleshed out. Goldenrod was "build me C3PO from MOTU parts because I'm gay for C3PO." Pythonus is "what if Nepthu was a Snake?" Reptilax was a low detail sketch in one panel of a minicomic that he gave more detail. Mimeo was a Mark Taylor sketch for the concept that became Man-E-Faces.And Roy has been doing art for Mattel for years. I'm sure I've seen anons cry about "Axel shit" that were actually done by Roy or Fetch. I will always slag off shit like Red Shadow and GBW, but it's fucking tiring the way posters in this thread decide if it's bad, then Axel is to blame, but if it's good, then we should definitely downplay Axel's involvement.
>>11558974>CC line is cancelled??? When did they say it was canceled? At NYCC they said they are still making figures for CC.
>>11559868Reminds me of this Xevoz figure.
>>11556054Jinkies, I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going!>>11556653MK is unironically perfect crossover fodder for a lot of things, but they whore themselves out a lot less than SF. With the sword and sorcery vibe of Outworld, I think it's a natural fit for MOTU. Just gotta use the cartoon version.
>>11559172OOOOOH, BANANA>>11559544Dragoon > Ninjor > Draego-ManMegator sized Dragoon is an interesting concept, I'd want to see how it was pulled off but I'd definitely keep an eye on it
>>11559905NTA, but I assumed what he meant it was "cancelled" in the same way vintage was "cancelled". It's pulled off store shelves to make room for them rebranding the line again and making a new theme the main focus, and will probably end up dripfed irritatingly slow through MC because it has to fight vintage and MV for monthly release slots each year.
>>11559868>>11559904The thing with Axel is, even when it's NOT wholly his idea, he talks like he's taking credit for it. That post you guys reference, what's the first thing he says? "MY designs from Classics". You can't really blame people for pointing the finger at Axel when the man himself, even for a character that came from a minicomic like Reptilax, is lumping it in with "his" other creations. And yeah, he'll acknowledge guys like Sam and Roy, but it will be an acknowledgement for ideas or suggestions, or saying they were instrumental in getting them in boxart, but he's not crediting them with designing the characters.
>>11559499Look i didn't even order the snake lair. Im not opening another tab.
>>11559944People conflate "designing" characters with "creating" characters. Someone gives him a piece of vintage or concept art and tells him "turn this into a figure with as few new molds as possible."I'd say 90% of Axel's designs are based on vintage/concept art like Toxoid and Stretch Nek, but he is the one that decides what parts are going to be used, like in picrel. He didn't create the character, but this is his design for the action figure version.And then there is shit like Golden Rod where Scott wanted him to make C3PO from MOTU parts. We know the idea for the figure was 100% Scott's, but he still designed it.
>>11559908That Xevoz is adorable.
>>11559973I would love Bug-Eye and Missile Toe, but only if the latter's feet were working missile launchers instead of parts reuse.
>>11559983Just my opinion but Missile Toad is a funny pun and more parts reuse because he would be a repaint of Frog Monger.>he absolutely needs something that launches a missile tho
>>11560001Frog Monger's backpack is the weakest part of his design, so I'm all for this.
>>11560006You read my mind. I took that shit off him immediately. If anything he should have had spring boots or a tongue piece like Tung Lasher.
>>11560021They called him Frog Monger. The correct accessory would have been a bag of trade goods.
>>11560026Actually according to his backpacks Classic bio, its not a rocket but a tubular (in shape not awesomeness) carrying case for his "mongs" which are gumball sized portions of dried fly candy which is a delicacy on his home planet. The little nub on the top dispenses frog milk to wash it down with. He was thrown in the Grayskull prison after attempting pt trade with King Miro, who found the whole thing disgusting.
>>11560029Also it was designed by Hordak.
>>11560029>Actually according to his backpacks Classic bio,>He was thrown in the Grayskull prison after attempting pt trade with King Miro, who found the whole thing disgusting.
>>11560021> Wanting gimmick on non-vintage figure"Best we can do is GITD plastic"
>>11560063What about color change plastic? I bet Axel could design some nifty frog that changes his colors in water.
>In 200X Stratos is Scottish.>In CGI, Avions use FrenchWhere should bird people go next? Maybe people will like Stratos if they make his cool Australian or Russian?
>>11560078>color change dart-oshut up and take my moneyNow I wonder what other easy gimmicks in that vein we're overlooking.
>>11560160>Now I wonder what other easy gimmicks in that vein we're overlooking.A hologram sticker would be as simple as Sy-Klone's lenticular, but I don't know how expensive either is.
>>11560181Didn't Super7 decided that leniculars would be too expensive for Eldor so they had something else?Although judging by Digitino, holographic is more expensive.
