>Lou Scheimer Productions wanted to keep the identity of his parents a big secret, which would only have been revealed in the very last episode of the series. It was Lou Scheimer himself who revealed shortly after the He-Ro concept bible was published that Dare's mother was indeed She-Ra.
Adora/She-Ra going missing for 10 years would have been difficult to pull off in a convincing way. Were the members of the royal family ever going to talk about how much they miss her after knowing her for a few years as an adult?
You also have to wonder if the Horde was defeated, or only Skeletor.

I’m actually getting excited to see what’s up with this movie. I’ve been at this since day 1 in β€˜82 and been back every time MOTU has reared its head in toy form. The 87 movie was a disappointment as kid but I’ve come to appreciate as an adult. I was there all through Classics with the Guru year after year coming with a fantastic script and it’s happening for sure this time. The Orgers back then only wanted the movie happen so we would get Classics in stores and didn’t care if it was good or shit. I’m hoping to for a retail blitz of stuff but stuff so far looks good, but we’ll see how that trailer looks.

They are in Australia, in fact I'm not sure it was ever released here. Seriously, we get butt-fucked on so many cartoon releases. Either shit doesn't get released at all or it's done in volumes so you have to get "season 1: Vol 1 Eps 1-3, Vol 2 Eps 4-6" and so on, until whomever is in charge gets bored and they just stop making them, so you end up missing half a season or the entirety of season 3 or whatever.

I'm surprised they didnt do a more generic character on the Heman side because Transformers is known for its massive amount of seeker repaints and they could have made so many.

Ok your post has convinced me to give this series a second chance.
>story actually does something with Skeletor not just being Keldor, but Adam's uncle.
However, I hate this lore. This is based purely off the "vintage" lore because it sounds like CGee Man is doing it's own thing.
It was such a dumb idea before like now you have to explain why Keldor is blue and Randor isn't. The He-Man and Skeletor dynamic doesn't need this plot baggage. It's like they wanted to rip of Vader and Luke but the Father spot was already taken by Randor. So now Keldor is Adam's half-blue uncle all so the writers can go

>However, I hate this lore.
So do I, CGI-Man is the only time that I've seen it done in a way that makes sense. A big part of the series is that Keldor and Adam are both successors of King Grayskull and both have the ability to wield that power, but the difference in how they view it, and use it. They even manage to use Randor to further explore the idea. Adam wants to use and share the power to help people, Keldor wants the power to rule over others, and Randor believes that the power should be left alone because it's too dangerous.

>now you have to explain why Keldor is blue and Randor isn't.
The show deals with this in that Keldor isn't blue until he becomes Skeletor. It also shows that people have different skin hues with some characters having blue or purple skin, and that it can change over time.

Like I said, normally I hate the Keldor thing, in fact I even hate the Prince Adam thing and prefer the original mini-comics origins for the characters, but this series does it so damn well that I enjoyed all of it. I also like that the writers managed to figure out a way for He-Man to have both the tribal warrior AND Prince Adam back stories.

I never really got why people like to hype up Hordack as the biggest baddest badass of the entire setting. Skeletor defeats him each time they fight, and he never could take over the rainbow gumdrop forest planet after 20 years of trying. At least Skeletor is struggling to take over the world that has about 3 dozen different types of musclebound mutant species and cyborgs on it.

Hordak has never shown to be more impressive than anyone else to be worth the hype. He's mostly a snorting pig guy that keeps a harem of marginally useful minions around. He mostly has Skeletor beat in having his hot chick army and robot soldiers. While Skeletor comes off as more of a gang leader of about 10 or so misfits.

Is anyone else hyped for Masters of the Universe, directed by Travis Knight, the acclaimed director of Kubo and the Two Strings and Bumblebee? This movie is going to be kinoβ€”a decade-defining moment that will mark the birth of a new cinematic universe and franchise. It will be a billion-dollar success, beloved by both audiences and critics. This film will do for superhero and fantasy genres what The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) and Superman (2025) wished they could’ve done. The level of success it will achieve is immeasurable, and /tv/ literally has no idea what gem they're sleeping on.
Masters of the Universe will be the film event of a lifetime. Imagine The Lord of the Rings meets Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, meets Guardians of the Galaxy, meets Pirates of the Caribbeanβ€”this will be the cornerstone of what’s supposed to be the next big blockbuster franchise. It will change the movie industry forever. All coming on June 5, 2026β€”only in theaters.

First of all this is 4chan. People are going to post things that you don't like. I have to scroll past the endless "what if" crossover character combinations. I'm not the only one here who thinks that stuff is over shadowing proper Motu. But I scrol past and don't engage.

Secondly I didn't call xir the T word or say that they didn't win (this is what seemed to be the real trigger). Or post any spicy role play ideas. It wasn't goading as much as it was venting my distress over the story telling and displeasure at being lectured over it. Everything I learn about this Andra makes the character seem like another ham fisted Mary Sue. And it's on topic as much as people talking about Keldor's love life or Angela's age when she had Glimmer.

Post some toys if you don't like the discussion.

This right here. Half this general is nothing but off topic that belongs in either /co/ or /tv/, and no one ever says a damn thing...until they get triggered by "Thing I Hate!" and then suddenly they pretend they have actual standards.
If you can't ignore Nu-Ra or Andra poster, then at least show some consistency and kick all the garbage that isn't toys out. And if you're not gonna kick it all out, that's what the "Hide Post" button is for, and you can change the topic instead of engaging with it

Evil Lyn seemed to always want out that relationship and get her own power or control. That was mostly her part in 200X releasing the next big bad to reward her and rid herself of Skeletor. Pretty much that way in Revelation as well. I remember during Classics Toy Guru would write a lot of the bios where Evil Lyn released this or that and he’d get beat up about it at cons or became a running joke on the Org. He wasn’t wrong though, it was all in 200X. Even the CGI Netflix kind of dealt with that at the end as well.

Anonymous No.11590686

Don't forget though, in the movie the arc of Lyn's character is that she genuinely loves Skeletor, but abandons him when she realised that she means nothing to him. That's the dynamic I basically follow, that Lyn and Keldor did genuinely care about each other, but Skeletor's lust for power eventually means that he is only out for himself, and Lyn does the same when.

The one thing this has going for it is it’s not the 4th reboot of it like DC films. Also it’s not requiring you to watch 20 other movies and 15 shit tv shows like Marvel. Revelation pissed off a lot of people but Revolution won some back. This feels like it will attract people who didn’t watch those but may remember the Filmation cartoons or those nostalgia baiting commercials like the dirty dancing or the Grayskull real estate one. It did seem like the filming leaks got a lot of good buzz the way Adam was dressed. Wait I remember him, that’s Prince Adam. Is Teela or the Sorceress in this ? Is his green tiger in this ?

That’s one industry you don’t see pull them in. Greedy ass Hasbro even pulled in one of the best fan photogs to do all their official photos. It’s way too gate kept. At a book signing with Val Staples from the Org one of the guys from the board showed up in a Tri Klops costume that was really incredible. Cosplay now is a big industry as Singer and other sewing machine companies usually have huge booths at comic and anime cons. They even host demonstrations and classes to show people how easy it is to do. One of my favs was the porn chick who’d show up as She-Ra at the Power Cons. She was awesome.

Theres a good balance to strike between your series becoming crossover and license slop and just having crossovers. Magic the Gathering and Lego are totally fucked up beyond all repair. I think Heman has a good balance because we have so much more going on. Origins, Sketchbook Concept art, Origins Cartoon Collection moving on to 200x Cartoon Collection. Masterverse with sub things like Vintage Master, new Eternia, 80s movie and other stuff. Whatever they're going to do for the movie. Thankfully some crossovers are really limited like the Stranger Things one and Transformers.

I like to think it's a situation where they both want power for themselves, but do have a soft spot for one another. Like if He-Man wasn't around and they did take over, Skeletor and Evil-Lyn could be happy together, ruling Eternia. But He-Man thwarts Skeletor's plans and Skeletor becomes obsessed with beating He-Man, while Evil-Lyn strikes out on her own.

Maybe it's just the romantic in me, but I enjoy the tragedy of a villain so obsessed with power that they destroy the things that could bring them happiness without even realising it.

Colonel Blast has not been made yet. The original design in the pic was for Rio Blast but Filmation took it and simplified it for the show. It would be cool if he had a Sketchbook figure but I’m playing with ideas of combining a Horde Trooper and a Rio figure it make a more detailed one.

At least they don’t price gouge yet like Hasbro does, most figures are in the ballpark since before Daddy Rump took office. This weekend has been an eye opener with that insane Haslab price or how much of a jump the exclusives did.

It’s crazy how out of control this got. Masterverse was always supposed to be like a Marvel Legends and jump around continuity. If anyone was here around the beginning of Origins the leaks were that it was supposed to be a foot in the door limited thing with a 3 year plan til they got Masterverse up and running. They didn’t account for how popular it got now we have all these spin offs and line changes and the focus completely went off the rails.

Not to detract too much from Multi-Bot, but getting him out of the way now pretty much guarantees that next year, finally, there's nothing to stand in the way of Two Bad, Blast-Attak and Stonedar getting announced, because short of them unveiling NO new vintages next year, what else are they gonna do?

If, after Multi-Bot and Blast-Attak, Mattel were to make Space Mutants with reused vintage Origins parts (except new torsos and heads), which parts would look best?

For Classics, both Optikk and Karatti got Man-E/Trap Jaw parts. Flogg had Man-E lower legs with Hordak feet, new thighs and groin and Horde Trooper arms. Slush Head was a mix of Whiplash and 82 Evil Warrior parts with shins and groin shared with Flipshot. Quakke may have been new parts because he was Super7.

One of the bigger speciality stores we have here still has CC Bow and Shadow Weaver on Pre-order, and everywhere else is a crapshoot. I saw a Whiplash and Shadow Weaver on shelves the other day, one each, and another dude grabbed them as soon as he saw them. Which I didn't mind because I already got a Shadow Weaver and don't want Whiplash, but still, this was a national franchised retailer and those two figures are the first new MOTU figures I'd seen in literal months. They still have Skele-God and 2021 CG Battle Cat taking up entire shelves.

Hear me out...if it doesn't make a profit, even a modest one, there's the real possibility Mattel just shelves MotU entirely as a failure brand again and we get nothing going forward.

The ideal should be "good movie + profit", but if we only get one, I'd rather have shit movie that makes profit and keeps the franchise alive so that we can still get new toys, comics and maybe even cartoons rather than a movie that we consider good but ends up tanking the franchise because it didn't make enough cash so we get no more toys or comics for the foreseeable future. That'd be a pyrric victor at best. We can't just take for granted that Mattel, in the event the movie fails regardless of its quality, will just continue on and keep churning out MotU, depending on how big a failure we're talking

Time for a review of this piece of shit. So many QC problems. Plastic quality is much cheaper than typical Origins figures. The plastic is lighter and the texture is smoother. Both knees are fused, so no articulation there. The hip joints feel like they're going to break at any moment. The torso has hard plastic on the inside and a soft plastic outer shell for the spikes. On my figure, part of the soft plastic shell melted between the torso and legs, gluing them together (see other pic). Eyes are looking in different directions.

Due to the lower plastic quality, it feels like a $10 figure. But due to the QC problems, I wouldn't pay more than $5.

This is one of the few Axel designs I want. Motu needs more sci fi and I can believe that the Snake Men could find an old robot and make it work for them.

Looks good, I wonder If there's any chance we'll see the concept art version in the Target exclusive line? I'd love to have him even if he's mostly a repaint with new head sculpts.

They'd be foolish not to. So many new parts and they're all generic enough for reuse and unlike Snake Men they dont have to Horde OCs necessarily. Only heads and arguably torso are characteristic. I mean, hips will probably have ball joint so you can only reuse them on figures with tails.

We need Plasmar and Saurod to exterminate all Snakes. I will use Plasmar to celebrate St Patrick's Day and cleanse the land of serpents.

I was going to say no, even CC version is unlikely but now that we're getting Multi-Bot I see some decent parts reuse.

He looks like C-3PO, he's called Golden Rod and he wields a rod with two balls.

Scott asked Axel to make a C3PO expy in Classics to satiate both his Star Wars fixation and his gay robot fetish.

I think I would have preferred if the card art called back to old art and had Multi Bot attacking Evil Warriors instead of heroes
You could even keep the same layout but swap Eternos for Snake Mountain, Blasterhawk for Fright Fighter, the guards for Skelcons, sketchbook Amazon for sketchbook witch and sketchbook paladin for sketchbook Tank Top

Regardless of how the film turns out, I appreciate that Galitzine has put the effort in to bulk up given that he had the whole twink/otter thing going for him.

The TC collab is over isn't it? No showing at all at NYCC. The mattel motu team not communicating at all with fans and just dropping a preorder out of no where. We'll never see these two in origins.

How is he not sweaty all the time? God, he must stink worse than I thought.

Or is that fuzzy collar part of his body? I think it only in CGI and maybe 200X.

Reminder that the inciting incident of Stinkor's origin in 200x was literally Tri-klops trying to invent a way to de-stink Beast Man and it accidentally created a worse smelling character

I'll say his his collar is clothing. It has straps even in some more detailed designs like New Eternia and spikes match too well with his shoulder pads. Weapon Pak also reinforces that.

I just want Mattel to get vintage Two Bad, Blast-Attak and Stonedar out quickly.
The movie trio and tops are not or barely in any comic or cartoon, so I can introduce my daughter to MotU with little chance of her asking for them. Everything would be sufficient except for PoP.

I doubt it'll be "quickly"
At best, most optimistic, I'd say by the end of next year if we assume
>Multi-bot will be 2026s Modulok
>Two Bad gets announced as next year's Rio-Blast
>Blast Attak gets to be next year's Hurricane Hordak
>Stonedar gets to be next year's Dragstor at the end of the year

And that further assumes Dragstor comes before Christmas

Ahh. I’ll never forget that one awesome anon from here that got a hold of the Mattel MOTU team’s email and spammed them with Madame Razz smut after the Wun-Dar sell out.

Good times.
