New chest harness, new sword (the head of the NA Skull Staff as the guard, and a barbed tip.) Sounds like great fodder for a Weapons Pack down the road.

And you and Val have my enduring gratitude for that. (I got Keldor from that list.)

That seems odd. I would think you'd get Octavia before NA He-Man.

Isn't this the first look we've gotten at GP He-Man's bio? It ties into the original NA mini-comic and explains why he's "King He-Man" instead of "King Adam".

EDIT: And if people want to share it...

The site still has Evil Lyn, but lists her as "No longer available" instead of "Coming soon".

And now the circle is complete. :) AFAIK, He-Man's first appearance outside the first four mini-comics was with Superman coming to Eternia in DC Comics Presents #47.

Now, the question is: Does...

For several reasons. How many of you remember what was happening in the winter of 1985/1986 when the Comet Warriors launched? Haley's Comet was passing by Earth, and it was a Big Event. I've always...

We almost got in on the hologram phase with Eldor, but missed out.

Back in my youth, I was kind of hoping for more extensive light-sensing or infrared-sensing (a la BraveStarr) that we got with...

All right, here's one that requires access to those archives where you dug out Skeleteen and the like. I am beginning to see bits and pieces in the original line that suggest Eldor may actually have...

Well, I don't want to read too much into that story--it's one panel in a fairly obscure story. I find the story interesting because a) it's the only thing that really shows us Skeletor as Hordak's...

It appears to be a promotional item from 1983, when various actors dressed up as MotU characters and handed these out. I remember reading a news story about that promotion back in the day, which...

Commercial animation is usually superior to series animation--witness most of the G.I. Joe and Transformers commercials. I think it has to do with the demands of the two forms--getting a 25-second...

I've been aware of the image on the cardback for 28 years and always read it as a mistake, but I'd forgotten about it showing up on the Horde trap in Battle for Eternia. I don't think he was going to...

I don't care for the "Son of He-Man" era at all, but in fairness, the child was conceived back when old Bonehead was Keldor, before he went so completely over to the darkness. Keldor wasn't a nice...

Evil-Lyn's real name is, IMO, one of the prime examples of Classics trying too hard to mash everything together. Using the 1980s bible name combined with the 200X origin just doesn't fit.

My ideal breakdown from an armchair planning perspective (bear in mind, I buy 1-3 figures a year at most--the life of a grad student) would be something like:

3 MotU vintage toy figures a...

Terror Claws should have either removable armor or claws that can be placed on the regular Skeletor so you can do the mini-comics version.

Laser Light Skeletor might be best served as an...

Panini also did a sticker album for the Motion Picture. Although I managed to get all but one of the stickers for the Filmation album, I never managed to get close to completing the Motion Picture...

Are we allowed to dislike it for trying too hard to fit everything in and thus feeling a bit clunky, or for trying too hard to be 'serious' and 'edgy' on occasion? :)



I'm not particularly...

--What's the Earth/Eternia connection mentioned in Marlena's bio?
--Who is Eldor? (All right, so I've been waiting for almost 20 years for the answer to this one.)
--What finally happens to...

All right, here's one that requires access to those archives where you dug out Skeleteen and the like. :skgrin: I am beginning to see bits and pieces in the original line that suggest Eldor may...

I am beginning to see bits and pieces in the original line that suggest Eldor may actually have been Adam--the coyness about his origin in the style guide and the cardback, the resemblance of his...

To the point that she actually fought alongside He-Man in the final battle of the series against Skeletor and Crita.

(Shameless self-promotion/self-indulgence: I actually took her to the next...

As far as I'm concerned, the Unnamed One showed up in the Filmation cartoon--at the climax of "Wizard of Stone Mountain". :skgrin:

Hasn't He-Ro I had enough indignities heaped on him in Classics continuity (the name 'Ro', the loss of "Most Powerful Wizard in the Universe" status, the sudden death, not even being the archenemy of...

I always thought Mara had more potential than she had the opportunity to express. But then, in the post-NA/alternate timeline elements I used in my fanfic, I promoted her to a 'Champion' alongside...

Looks like you're missing the mini-comic, the instructions and the "Care and Feeding of Slime" pamphlet, but that's it.

I still have a MISB Slime Pit and a sealed vat or two of Slime. I wonder...

I can forgive the Panthor issue (although I haven't read the mini-comic) if only because I remember the headaches that "Out of the Past" in the 200X cartoon caused me in timeline issues with a single...

Permit some self-indulgent wandering down memory lane for a moment here . . .

I was one of the first to espouse the Keldor Origin as a possibility, back in the mid-90s when Adam Tyner was first...

If I had one, I'd be sorely tempted to give it to He-Ro. Even in past years, I've toyed with the idea that he created it during the time between the defeat of the Snake Men and the Second Infinitan...

OTOH, the general trend seems to be to include as much of everything as they possibly can--He-Ro and King Grayskull, Etheria and Despondos, Power Vest and Power Sword, New Adventures and Son of...
