Gotta say...Even when growing up, I had little interest in MotU, but that toy is pretty damn gorgeous.

 

[Invincible]

I won't buy it. but it looks cool.

Rest assured...

• The line will be a 6" Masters of the Universe collector's line
• The line will be super-poseable, using high-end articulation
• It will be comparable to the DC Universe line that is currently being produced by Mattel and sculpted by the 4H
• Mattel stated this line is definitely going to be for the collectors, and not for children
• They will be shipped in even case ratios. Mattel said "You are not going to see six Skeletors and one Beastman"
• The first figure in the line will be King Grayskull, who will be a SDCC Exclusive.
• King Grayskull will have a chase variant that is colored to look like the statue of King Grayskull seen by Adam from the MYP Power of Grayskull episode
• This collector's line will contain "the entire pantheon of MOTU characters", which will include characters from the classic MOTU toy line, the New Adventures of He-Man, MYP cartoon characters, characters from the mini-comics (a photo of the Green Goddess was flashed), characters from the unproduced Powers of Grayskull line (a photo of He-Ro was flashed), and POP characters (a screengrab of Force Captain Adora from SOTS was flashed)

EXCELLANT! i have an few figures from the last new he-man cartoon but there somewhere in my mom's basement and i only got like 6 of them or so. I also have an old skeletor and fakor from the original line but again, cant' find them. i'm excited about this line though. sounds awesome. and i for one, hope i can finally get me an decent She-ra!

wait, POP does stand for Princess of Power, right?

 

[BizarroAids]

FINALLY!! A decent He-Man! I'm adding this to my wishlist. Now bring on Skeletor and Orko....I wonder what kind of scantly clad outfit they'll put Shee-ra in.

Can't wait for the females, Prince Adam, a RAM MAN with separate legs!!!

I hope that the Online ordering/distribution problems are fixed by the time that He-Man and the others start popping up...

But that Skeletor looks like an awesome version of the toy I had as a kid...

no thigh swivel,but they compare it to DCUC

no thigh swivel,but they compare it to DCUC

i don't have a greyskull, so i can't say for sure...but, i heard someone say they were missing thigh cuts because they have ball joints at the legs, so there's no need for the thigh cut. i honestly have no idea if this is true or not, but i certainly can't see a ball joint in there.

regardless though, i still think he looks pretty sweet

hmmm..wow, really? How did I miss them? I'm trying to remember who I do have from that 2002 line. They're in some box somewhere. I THINK I have He-man, orko, some kind of varient Skeletor, triclops, trapjaw, beast man, and i might have Teela too. Not sure. I'd like to find them though.

 

[Jochimus]

^ IIRC Hordak was one of the "Staction" figures (articulated statues) and She-Ra was a con exclusive...?
