>>9453178 >Honestly curious what parts they're gonna reuse for the new faces The red gladiator looks the easiest. He has the standard buck, skeletor arms and he-man boots. The gray guy and the guy from "The Obelisk" are same deal
The skiing yeti will probably use beast man or grizzlor parts, maybe hordak arms for the gloves? (I wonder if they'll flock or fur him?)
Delora and the witch both have skirts, so that will be a new piece they can share. The witch's big sleeves can then be reused for either Marlena or Shadow Weaver. And tge witch's boots can be reused for Adora
The cyclops looks like a standard buck with new armor pieces, so maybe hes like Man-at-Arms with arm and leg armor pieces?
And we've talked about the frog's reuse before.
The rest all look like 100% new tooling

So, Mantenna, Tung Lashor, Snake Face, Leech and Saurod all have action features which require the head and torso to be all one solid piece, no neck articulation. >want functioning feature, willing to sacrifice articulation >want to be able to turn their heads, don't care if they have no feature

Quoted By:

We have Masterverse for an articulation specific line, so let Origins be faithful to the vintage line where it can.

They might reuse head for OC #1, armor for OC #2, etc, to get reuse out of all original parts, but I really don't see all those parts coming together as a retail spaceman
And "integral" is subjective. It was a piece of cardboard in the original set, a piece of decoration, not a character. I don't think it's got a wide mass appeal like Beast Man or something. But hey, I could be wrong.

>>9455857 Super excited. I know many didn't like it for one reason or another but I enjoyed the first season quite a bit. Excited to see the new designs and thus possible toy designs (I assume we'll get a Part 2 Teela in whatever new look she has, along with Evil-Lyn and others) and how it concludes. I wonder if they'll close the book on this part of the story, or if they'll leave it open for more. Could we actually see a New Eternia series? Basically, excited for it. I think it'll also redeem itself in some people's eyes, as in Revelation as one story told in the 10 episodes. For those who actually watched the first part, anyways. And if not, it'll be done, and those who didn't like it can wait for what's next.

>>9455976 If they did they'd probably have to soften it a bit, then people would say it doesn't fit the rawness of the MC. We have to remember at the end of the day these shows are meant to sell toys. Even Revelation which was supposed to be primarily for adults is still mostly kid friendly.
If we get a New Eternia show that'll probably be the closest thing.
Anonymous
>>9455976 I agree.
You even see in the minicomics that they were at their best pre-Filmation, then took a severe nose dive during the Filmation period in story and art (I find the original Horde comics particularly bad, especially the art), but then got good again post-Filmation (not as good as pre-Filmation, but the Towers, Snakemen and little things like ditching the idea that Sorceress can't leave Grayskull in human form all brought the quality up)

>>9456399 >>9456401 Thanks frens. As long as we get the standard version eventually, that's fine by me. $220 is just so much money for 4 figures. It works out to around $60 per figure after taxes and shipping which is a full wave per figure.
What about Duplicat though? That one seems to be completely unique.
Anonymous
>>9455940 >>9456406 so there's this one, Grizzlor and Hordak, which came in at 138.85 with shippping, not including taxes. I figure after taxes you're looking at about 150.00, but after eBay takes their cut--which comes out to around 13% if the final sale, you're looking at 130.50, which is a little over half of what it costs you to get it from BBTS after you pay them taxes and shipping.

What I can say is that even if 2002 He-Man was tailor made to children of that time, it still would have faced an uphill battle.
From the end of the 90s to mid 2000s we got the Star Wars trilogy, Matrix trilogy, Narnia just barely squeezed out a trilogy, X-Men trilogy, Spider-Man trilogy, the start of the Harry Potter movies, start of the Pirates of the Caribean movies, Pokemon, anime started to get really big in America in general, Dragonball Z was airing twice a day 6 days a week in particular, original X-box, PS2, gamecube, a gameboy that could play SNES quality games, boy bands, Latin invasion, Britney Spears type solo acts...
There was a lot of shit for children, tweens, and young teens to get into at that time.

It did have some good episodes, but overall, I found it to be the same quality as Filmation....couple of good eps but mostly forgettable crap. At least they looked cooler than Filmation, though.

>>9456273 >By the looks of how much wave peg warmers I see in every Target and Walmart, I doubt we'll make it past wave 3. Thanks Kevin Smith. I don't think the reception to Revelation has much to do with it. Teela aside it's not like the character designs are anything extreme or unsavory. The toys themselves and MOTU as a brand in general are probably more to blame, assuming the line is underperforming (which I wouldn't). Origins is more than a little flawed, but Masterverse has left a lot to be desired even compared to Hasbro's stuff and doesn't have the personality Origins does to offset what it lacks.
I think barbarian Skeletor looks cool for example -- and swappable heads do sweeten the deal considerably -- but I still have mixed feelings because the main body they're using is nevertheless weird with the torso/shoulders and hard to un-see and they're not remarkable in any other respect.

I feel like this was the only set worth the price of admission at $30. Got Faker and Duplicat on the way from BBTS, really wanted the Horde set but it's reselling at literally the same BBTS price, sometimes just under or over. Couldn't justify it back then, even when it's back up for sale I still can't. Spaceman is the bees knees though, I'm having a lot of fun with this guy.

His wrist rocket does come off yes, but as you can see you're left with a giant peg hole where it should be.
Hose detaches from the mouth of the helmet, but not at the control panel on his chest. You can try to place it under a shoulder pad if you decide to do a head swap.
Overall, he might be my favorite Origins figure yet. He just feels somehow refreshing, I know he's based on the cardboard piece, but this figure just feels like something totally new, like we are finally getting a brand new character with little to no lore attached and it's left to us to determine who he is. To me he's a space hunter trying to bring in Hordak and his crew, getting in other adventures along the way.
The design is great, the shoulder pads luckily move perfectly with the arms to not hinder articulation, and the colors pop. I'm really hoping for a basic carded release, this is a figure that should be obtainable to anyone who wants one. He's fuckin rad.

If that last leak is right, it's too late to get him in wave 9, so can he PLEASE be in wave 10? And DONT make him an exclusive like you did with spaceman. Please and thank you.
Spaceman and frog would make a good rivalry...two new characters based on art decos from Castle Grayskull

>>9458060 That's the dream. I've been wanting to sculpt out some rough concepts, that was mine and my sisters favorite toy as kids. We constantly talk about hoping for a revival or doing one some day. I still have a bunch of them laying about.
>>9458066 I'd love to see the Frog, Evil Zodac, spooky skeletons etc. I doubt we will see all of them made, but I at least need the Frog. I'm somewhat fearful he'd be a Mattel exclusive, but I love the design of that guy, and I believe he's popped up more times than any other of the new concept characters. So here's to hoping we see him soon.
In the meantime, if you have a Spaceman, Mosquitor looks fucking excellent as his arch nemesis. I need to get pictures or them together soon.
Anonymous
>>9458077 >I doubt we will see all of them made, The only one I have any particular worry about not getting made is the rhinoceros guy. Not only is he all new parts, he's also an oversized character. And I dunno about you, but given the tooling budget for something like that, if I were a decision maker, I'd probably put that money towards known vehicle or beast (like blasterhawk or monstroid) before an untested creature.
But most of the rest use reused parts, or if they don't, have parts which would be easy enough to find reuses for (like the skeleton warriors. Generic skeletons with generic armor and weapons should be easy to find SOMETHING to reuse them for).

Anonymous
>>9458100 I have the same fear for the Skeletons. As cool as they are, it's all new tooling for something that isn't guaranteed to sell. Skelecons would likely be a safer bet before all new skeleton soldiers, and Skelecons can reuse the basic body. That said, I'd buy at least three generic green skeleton dudes, they're sick.
Some also seem a bit redundant, like the dinosaur rider and the generic red demon with the mace. They'd be easy enough to do, but again with required new tooling and being fairly bland designs, I'm not sure we would see them. Frog and evil Zodac are way more inventive and fun.
>>9458119 Far from it, I think a lot of us want new characters. MCX is likely my favorite scale and the one I find most fun, but the slow trickle keeps me from preferring it to Origins. But I'd love to see MCX or Origins introduce new characters. I just need MCX to give me a damn Webstor first.
Final picture and then I'm done spamming Spaceman. I just think he looks great with Mosquitor.

>>9458159 The dinosaur rider will do ok IF he comes with the dinosaur. If not, yeah, he's generic enough I don't think he'll excite anyone.

>>9458243 I can't see mattel doing new tooling for something as large as a dinosaur mount for a no name character. Were it the 80s sure, but not now. If(and that's a big if) they do a dinosaur it'll be Bionotops or Tyrantasaurus, something with some lore. I feel like only the smallest handful of these guys will get toys, it any at all. As it stands I think the Rocket Frog has the best shot at production. Everyone else is a maybe or a longshot maybe. I'd love to own most of them, but I don't see it realistically happening.
That said I really want the Masks of Power demons as a two pack or Lodar.

MCX is my favorite scale because they've proved they can be as articulated as Origins (the actual MotU ones aren't, but they've done ankle articulation on the Ninja Turtles and and Halo Marines). So aside from needing space for Deluxe action features, the individual figures are just as good to me.
More crucially, while something like Origins Castle Grayskull is fun, it's only four rooms and some parapets, which is nothing compared to the CG interiors we've seen in the fiction. With MCX, you can build up playsets as much as you want.

It's my belief that frog, gladiator, witch, and delora will definitely get toys because of easy parts reuse
Dylamug and Octavia will also definitely get toys because they have nostalgia to back thrm up, even if these aren't the Filmation versions...plus Dylamug's name was in that list of trademarks from earlier this year along with names like Mantenna and Snout Spout, so he's got a lot of clout
And the yeti has a fun action feature thry market him with, with thr skis on rollers, so I'd consider him a strong contender too.

I think the reason why all the evil ladies are still mostly human is because those were meant for the girl fans who still want someone pretty.

>>9458807 Most evil ladies are She-ra based rather than MotU based, so I'd say that plays a factor.
Besides Evil-lyn and the scrapped Octavia and witch concepts, Mattel never added much to MotU.

Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>9458807 Well yeah i mean i guess we could get some new fans with a larger cast of monster girls/women given that boys toys and girls toys arent as defined as there were when she ra originally released. Lets just make up our own faction of lady monsters that live on say cursed skull valley, cut off from the world and abandoned by the travel group they were in, these once beautiful women have since adapted into various shapes and sizes after drinking from 'the reflecting pond' each one changing into a monstrous shape and size BUT not for evil but in order to serve and protect those that live in cursed skull valley.
Is that a workable frame of an idea? Can we sell to mattel if we get scott or val?

Theoretically-- not in implementation of specific figures-- but in being double jointed, pinless, better articulated, etc. Masterverse should be better than classics if it goes on long enough. Correct?
Anonymous
>>9461014 If all you care about is articulation then they already are. Classics probably has the advantage with paint; Masterverse is lackluster there so far. But my issue with Masterverse is just with the main body proportions looking weird in the chest/shoulders. I actually like the head sculpt on Skeletor but the articulation isn't anything special enough for me to overlook that weirdness. Maybe if I had it in hand and posed it around it wouldn't bother me as much, but I can't pull the trigger on it. If they introduce better bucks they'd easily outclass Classics, but I'm not a massive Classics fan to begin with.

So Skelegod and Evil-Lyn's warriors consist of Beast Man, Clawful, Webstor, Spikor, Goat Man, Pig Boy and a surprise cameo by Blade. Skelly doesn't check in on Snake Mountain until the very end, finding the tech cult there. I guess Cyber-Whiplash died? The disappearances of Mer-Man, Stinkor and the Skelcons are never explained.
Anonymous
Lots of spoilers if you haven't seen part 2 but intend to below.
>>9463513 Whiplash isn't necessarily dead, just wasn't around. Same for Blast Attak. Skelcons, based on the first episode, could well be random citizens transformed into them. Mer-Man sent some Aquaticans, assuming he's still in charge down there, but perhaps stayed back to protect his kingdom, as undersea rulers tend to do.
Poor Beast Man, a blithering simp turned into a beast then discarded. If there is more to the series he will maybe find himself a farmer wherever Evil-Lyn is. Or he's dead, forgotten after being chucked off into the mote of CG.
Can't forget Motherboard being a Horde entity, and technofying Skeletor into maybe his NA look.
Anonymous
>>9463524 >Can't forget Motherboard being a Horde entity, and technofying Skeletor into maybe his NA look. That would be cool.
Motherboard being a Horde entity left in Snake Mountain would dovetail nicely with "The Secret of the Sword" if we could trust this show to be a Filmation sequel.
We also see an abbreviated version of Evil-Lyn's backstory from the prequel comic: she was 25 when she met Skeletor. He's wearing his Horde clothes but they didn't spring for animation models for any Hordesmen.

>>9463601 Roboto, I get, he became 'human' and he had a good end basically saving everyone. Likewise Fisto and Clamp saved Adam and Teela, but their deaths were unfair and abrupt. I think they should have had comebacks in that last fight, and could have stuck around, like Orko (who is also absurdly strong as Oracle now. the good guys now have He-Man, Oracle, and a Sorceress that can freely roam and fight, who knows how absurdly powerful the Horde would have to be to fight them).
>>9463586 Sadly, I was also hoping to see him. But this way, if the series does continue, maybe we could get Saurod with the Snake Men. I'm also sad we didn't get to see Ninjor and others, but there were still lots of fun cameos.
>>9463575 He was ok, basically Hulk. Very strong, very fast, very punchy. I think in their fight that Skelegod looked more impressive, pulling out all sorts of spells. The fight itself was quite cool.
Anonymous
>>9463621 How so? There was no indication that such a thing would happen, and anything said to support that was hearsay. Instead, we got 2 other wielders of the Power and neither of them was Teela or Andra (despite her VA playfully saying they got her to say the line, when it was clearly meant to be for fun rather than a part of the audition).
Even the thing about being in a relationship with Andra had more bearing from that one line in episode 2, yet based on the final episode (and earlier teases), she clearly meant it just as a friend and Adam is her love interest.

Your first line is opinion, nothing to talk about.
I'm not sure what kinds of stakes you're expecting for a MOTU show. Conquer the world, conquer Eternia, conquer Grayskull, kill He-Man, conquer the universe, and it goes on. Feel free to give an example of stake you'd have liked.
A lot of people felt that Randor's slight of Adam from part 1 was unjust, or that his anger was unfair, and so they addressed it in part 2. Call it daddy shit if you want but they're addressing plot threads left from part 1.
>Of course Evil-Lyn isn't going to succeed. So why should I care? Are you meaning to tell me that you don't expect the hero to win in the end? I honestly don't know what you were expecting here. You ever hear 'it's not about the destination, it's about the journey"? If you don't think the hero winning is an expectation in 95% of all media to ever exist, and of all the media that subverts that expectation you actually expected it to be MOTU, I don't know what to tell you.

It's a nonsense goal.
CGI He-Man did it wonderfully. A family feud where Keldor is fueled by spite, Adam is scared of what his dad might think of him, and all of this clashing with what his friends believe in? It's great stuff.
Revelation has none of that. It's just "I'm a bad dad because I never told you I'm proud of you" and Evil-Lyn using sex, instead of her wits, to disarm Skeletor, because another man told her to. It's a lot of layers of bad.
Lastly yes, it is my opinion. I believe I am in the majority when I say Mark's joker inflections in his voice acting here were pretty bad.

There was too much emphasis put on them being sent to Hell, Heaven being nuked from existence, and all the dead in Hell being brought back.

Mosquitor must be a cyborg mosquito-man.
But not everyone has to fit the theme.

>>9464295 Possible but they do not necessarily have to because as we know Hordak's gimmick was always that he relied on science and could transform parts of his body technologically, but the other members did not necessarily do this. The MB may just be a way the Horde is communicating with some members on Eternia but doesn't have to be the full focus of the Horde.

The trailer and Kevin Smith really gave away too much. I can't express how disappointed I am in the stakes. >Mark Hamill needs to stop voice acting. You nerds won't admit it but everything he says is correct.

>>9464374 The comment was already discussed. If this place is positive for the most part, most places are probably overall positive. No need to try to spread ill feelings. If you didn't like it that's fine, let those who did like it like it.
>>9464295 I'm going to guess Motherboard itself isn't that special, but a kind of recruiter for the Horde, reprogramming people's minds so that they become servants. I would doubt that all of the Horde are robotic, but certainly possible that their minions are. The members of the cult did retain their memories, but Tri-Klops also said Motherboard made them do what they did, so there's definitely some measure of mind control going on.

Would you look at that. After all these years, He-Man and Skeletor have put aside their differences and are now best buds

>>9464389 >there's definitely some measure of mind control going on. Just want toss it out there that thst would actually callback to the original conception of the Horde, where they were all creatures that the Horde mind controlled through the "Horde insignias".
Leech and the boys being Mother Board controlled cyborgs would fit that idea if they wanted to bring it back

>>9464402 If /motu/ is overall positive, the same is likely true for the majority. Punches weren't pulled for part 1 and it seemed like the people who enjoyed it were much fewer than they are now. Or maybe those people haven't bothered watching and that's why the opinions seem skewed, who knows.
>>9464405 Interesting, but one thing worth noting is the kinds of augmentations we've seen. Trapjaw from what we can tell was no different, Tri-Klops had some new parts on his shoulders, perhaps augmenting his strength, and Whiplash had new parts oh his extremities, like the mace on his tail and some armor. Meanwhile the generic grunts all had some crazy body horror going on, their arms turning into blades, that one guy's funky eye, and whatever else. Maybe if the 'host' is already excessively competent, the change is minimal, just augments, so as to not tamper with their existing abilities, while the grunts who are otherwise useless get much more significant upgrades.
All that to say that if there is a S2 and we see Leech and all the rest, I wouldn't want them to be weird mechanical monsters. Augmented strength, or robotic like Mosquitor is, cool. We did see them in the comic and they were pretty normal to the ones we know, so I wouldn't expect crazy changes to them.

Alright so there are 3 posters on .org going into every thread relating to Revelation and giving their negative opinions. Admit it, you guys are here to, aren't you.

>>9464355 Everyone thought Teela would become He-man, no one ever suspected Evil Lyn.
Also what is the actual reason why she remained that way after losing the power sword?

>>9464477 She was already granted the power and was the sorceress also she didn't depower. They also made the point that the sword didn't matter killing all the lore that was built up from the last 40 years.

>>9464486 They say the sword does matter in focusing the power though, so why did she still retain her mind after losing it rather than going nuts like Savage He-Man?
Why didn't He-Man forcibly de-power Skelegod when Skelegod turned on him when it seemed like He-Man "gave" Skeletor access to the power for part of the last battle in ep10 and presumably thus could take it away as well
