I loved those and the Hot Wheels Crack Ups, which was a similar concept.

 

Agreed... always loved that feature as a kid.

 

Does anyone else remember Manglors? I think that might have been the single worst case of a toy “action” not working as advertised. Lol

 

Yeah...lol. My best friend got one and we shredded that mofo...we had to learn the hard way.

 

Oh man, Manglors... I remember how Toyfinity grabbed the rights to the line along with their other properties, and has been "coming soon" all these years. Only thing that ever actually came of them were new eggshells that got used to hold Mordles instead.

 

Lol...Same here. I remember ripping mine to pieces because they were supposed to go back together (and 6 year old me believed that). Needless to say, it didn’t work, as advertised. Lol

 

Still haven't seen the figures yet.

 

Thought I'd post this amidst all the talk about the new reveals: What would be your 3 most wanted figures for either Origins or Masterverse?

I'll start with my picks for Origins
3. Buzz-Off

2. Rokkon and Stonedar (kinda cheating but they're basically the same figure)

1. Mekaneck (he's unironically my favorite MOTU character, so I need him in Origins form)

 

To be fair, 80% of all MotU characters are kinda the same figure.

 

My 3 Most Wanted characters for Origins (Provided I ever find the damn things in stores)

1) Hordak
2) Ram Man
3) Mosquitor

As far as Masterverse is concerned...

List if Multiple Incarnations are possible:
1) Live Acton Evil-Lyn
2) Live Action Teela
3) Live Action Beast Man

List if only inspired by cartoon aesthetic...
1) 200X inspired Snout Spout
2) Filmation Starchild
3) 200X Ice Armor He-Man (Always loved that design)

 

You guys are killing it with the pictures! I’m so worried that I may have a breakdown, and grab all of these when they hit my part of the world!

Oh man, you are more blessed than I thought! A wife who’s into collecting too?! What more can a guy ask?!  

 

My picks are all for Origins:

1. Faker with extra head and parts for Leo Faker.
2. Mekaneck
3. Hordak

 

Since I think I'm going to focus on Masterverse...

1)Scareglow since I just love this character's design and he's going to be in Revelations so there's a good chance he'll happen.
2)Man-At-Arms with heavy influences from his 2000's design as he was probably my favorite character from that version of the show.
3)Mer-Man as I've always been partial to his overall design.

 

I’m actually really happy with MCX for my MOTU fix but I need to get the Origins Sky Sled and eventual Battle Ram. Because of this, I impulse ordered anything else I could in the line. Couldn’t get Scareglow or any of the first wave but I got Beast Man, Man-At-Arm and Man E Faces. Not big on getting these other than Man-E-Faces and I need to look again but didn’t notice if it comes with as many weapons as the original. I remember that being a huge deal back in the day when it came with I think 6 weapons. But now that I’m in, I’d like to get Skeletor and He-Man. But I really need:
Trap Jaw
Clawful
Triclops
Mer Man
Hordak
I’d be pretty happy if I could just get these plus the ones I haven’t been able to order yet.

 

For Masterverse:

1. Snake Armor He-man
2. He-man from New Adventures of He-man
3. Tie between 200x Man-at-Arms and Keldor

 

Went back this morning to grab Beastman and Man at Arms - sheesh these figures are flying off the shelves. Yesterday all pegs were full today all that remained was 1 Beastman and a few He-mans and Skeletor.....but to my surprise they just put out Battlecat!  

 

Nice shots of The Lords of Power Set.

^ Oh man. The action pose that Beastman is in really sells the figure and reminds me of what we all wish he could do 35 years ago.
