I'll give honorable mentions to red Horde Trooper, Ninjor and Faker, because I debated giving them the nod over Fisto because they all look nicer, but ultimately, Fisto is just too much fun to mess around and play with despite being a crappier looking toy.

Origins is great for play and representation of the original line.
Masterverse is more for display especially for those who missed out on the classics run.
that said outside of he-man and skeletor most are pretty nice looks wise. and even those can be made to look nice with some work.
Anonymous
>>9527382 >'m going to need a Hordak This probably won't be an unpopular take, but Hordak is actually worst Hordesman.
He's not necessarily objectively bad, but look at who he's up against...Mosquitor, Mantenna, Modulok, Leech, Grizzlor, Dragstor...he just can't compete. I'd even argue some of the non-vintage Horde are better.

Orko, Sorceress, Roboto and the Battle Armors don't deserve top tier. They're all As or Bs

And She-ra belongs in d-tier
Anonymous
>>9527359 Having now had Classics, Origins and Masterverse stuff in hand, I honestly think they're more enjoyable and dynamic figures than Classics and don't at all feel redundant alongside Origins. I'm very glad I decided to pick some up.
Full UK retail felt too expensive, but on clearance they're an absolute treat. I'd definitely recommend at least Spikor and MAA. Can't comment on W3 as it hasn't showed up locally, but I'd possibly pay full retail for Stinkor given how much I've enjoyed what I have.

>>9528609 Roboto is a very good figure. I still consider him a solid A figure, right up there with Faker and Ninjor. But he's just shy of being upper crust for me.

There's a lot of new on this that didn't need to be new but is anyway which is nice. My only gripe is that the staff looks cheap, but for everything else I'll take it.

If no, it's cancelled. If yes, the next question is: will we make MORE money if continue this line, or if we cancel it and reallocate the investment in it to a more profitable line?
Obviously I don't have the answers, but those are the scenarios where it would get cancelled

Is $100 in leafbucks a good price for both versions of Triple H?
Anonymous
>>9528613 Yeah, hopefully it gets a decent innings. I think it's potentially one of the most promising action figure lines out there.
>>9528617 I was initially sad about the missing gear and details from the original but, in hand, he edges it for me having the gear gimmick in the torso and the head, whilst still having head articulation and removable arms, along with the forearm accessories - it just feels like you're getting so much for a non-deluxe. Helps that I'm such a fan of his crystal-clockwork-space-knight aesthetic, too.
Can I ask what those 4-5 are?
Anonymous
>>9528806 I really like the base Tri-Klops design but the Origins snarl just doesn't do it for me. I realised I'd only be getting it to have a Tri-Klops. The Masterverse one is tempting me, though.
>>9528944 Just conjecture, but I couldn't see them cancelling the Masterverse in general until they've gotten at least a few waves into the various announced sublines. At worst, they'd phase out the Revelation stuff after the Teela/Mer Man wave, but that may have only been as far as they'd planned to go with Revelation figures anyway unless they'd sold absolute gangbusters.

My Thundercats have more paint rub, and looser joints. Coupled with the fact that the VHS tape of He-Man recorded off of TV broke long before the one with Thundercats did, I'd guess I played with those guys more, and then just moved onto other series late 80s-early 90s.

I've traded away basic Hordak, v1 Evil Lyn, v1 Stratos, Teela, Battle Armor He-Man, and white Sorceress due to better versions of the character/mold being released.
All I currently need are Crystal Pepsi Skeletor and Powercon She-Ra, and I'll have what personally feels like a complete collection. I'm pretty much just missing those two exclusives and the few retail ones I skipped or traded due to having a preferred version replace them.

In terms of figures already released/revealed, want Webstor, Horde Trooper, and Clawful. Maybe Buzzsaw Hordak.

Similar story with Baltard. A local toy dealer (he's a fren and I don't want to call him a scalper) sold me him for $5. The cape is from Primal Age Batman and the whip from one of the Thundercats.
The kids have no idea who Darth Maul or Mysterio are. But its really fun that so many weird random characters can fit in because MoTu was so wide open aesthetically.

I'm getting very conflicted about the WWE figures. On one hand, I want to collect them and they're just cool toys, but on the other they all seem to be real world drug addicts and borderline criminals. I don't feel like my conscience is clear knowing they'll get royalties from my buying the figures.

If they start making these, I am not hung up on them being really vintage accurate.
I used to have to steal my sister's She-Ra to play with and the Origins version just seemed way better to me. The "real" hair was always frizzy and the plastic at least has a baseline of looking half decent. Modern articulation helps a lot.
Does classics Mermista pose well on a sculped fin?

>>9532834 I totally agree that OC and concept characters are a high priority.
But PoP has a lot of nostalgia as well as Motu. They don't need to go super deep and make mini comic Kowl but a few of the characters I would say are must haves.
>Frosta >Shadow Weaver >Catra >Glimmer >Swift Wind >maybe Bow. He's on the list because he was enough of a main character to be left behind. My deep cut pick would be General Sunder. He was a returning characters with an arc. you could put him witht he Horde or the Rebels.

>>9532855 Pig Head has to be the next assortment. Not just because his name was leaked, but he's Sun-Man's enemy. They can't put out SM and not immediately follow up with his villain.
Based on those leaks, I figure next wave will be Pig Head, Trap Jaw (to fill the cheap repaint slot), Whiplash (to finish the monster leg trio waves 7 and 8 startd with Clawful and Buzz Off) and King Randor as the obligatory good guy.
Then wave 10 will be when we get Digitino, 200x Skeletor, Mantenna and some unleaked figure to round out the quartet. Grizzlor would be appropriate, make it a Horde wave

Moss Man could be wave 10 as that "mystery figure" I mentioned. He's about as likely as Grizzlor. Or maybe the wave after. We probably won't see him until fall or winter, but I think he'll get made before the end of the year

It's so hard to guess, because all the remaining deluxe-worthy characters are dipping into c and d listers, and that makes it harder to guess who gets priority.
You got Snout Spout, Rattlor, Blas Attak, Saurod if they actually have the balls to keep the sparks, the Energy Zoids, and maybe Extendar and Rio Blast (although personally I think those last two will be basics. Sure, they have lots of new pieces, but their gimmicks are extremely simple so thry might not need it)

I use Roboto as a measuring stick. If it's as complex as his gimmick or less complex, it doesn't need deluxe.

Quoted By:
>>9532964 Going to parot other anons, but aside from Filmation I feel like 200x, the CGI show, and Filmation She-Ra are the best.
200x has a cool aesthetic that largely serves as an update on the original, lots of focus on characters filmation never showed much or didn't show at all and some great action. The inclusion of the Snake Men was really great, and when they do take the rare creative liberty like on Zodac it pays off.
CGI He-Man unlike 200x doesny have those visuals that mirror Filmation, but I feel like the spirit and whimsical adventurous nature mirror that of Filmation. Fewer characters, but the characters we get have some nice development, and the many changes made to characters like Cringer, Krass, Orko, Trap-Jaw and Beast Man are really fun takes. Action is serviceable, worst part is some jokes may not land due to the demographic, but I wasn't bothered. I liked it a lot.
The original She-Ra is also great and you do get some character crossover, it's a fun time if you find yourself feeling blue now that you've seen Filmation Motu two or three times through and needing more. I did find myself missing He-Man as the protagonist and never found She-Ra herself quite as entertaining, especially with the banter Adam and Cringer had, but Hordak and his crew are fantastic and have some really fun interactions.
Can't speak much to New Adventures as I've only seen 3 episodes, I don't hate it, just never got into it and I'm sure I'd enjoy it now. New She-Ra I skipped after watching two with my sister, I've heard it gets better but it wasn't my bag. Revalation is a whole other rant and while it wasn't the dumpster fire some have you believe, it was the 2am Taco Bell slop that may hit the spot at first, but occasionally pains you while digesting.

Looks like she has swivel at waist, hinge at "hips" hinge at "knees" and hinge at "ankles".
She also came with a while alternate human pelvis and legs, so I guess they could make her a deluxe.
The question is could they reuse the mermaid tail for anything else?
If not, then the question is what's cheaper; them making a whole new one time tail piece, or making a new multi styled fabric cloth goods piece for a line that hasn't had anything serious previously.

The thing with Revelations is they did try too hard to be PC, and that enraged people. And it was probably on purpose. Like Teala gets a sideshave. And the just make up a black woman side character. They might be gay. They might not be gay. And Evil Lyn gets a short hair cut when she becomes the muscle mommy. Oh and like king grayskull is now black.
Which all doesn't really matter, but I did chuckle watching it knowing how much it would anger some channers. Like, as soon as saw that Teala shaved half her hair off, I could feel 4chan becoming enraged.
Anyway, surprised how much I liked it. Scareglow really became this really bad ass evil guy. And I want muscle lyn to sit on me. And I didn't know I needed a buddy comedy with orco and Lyn, but they work together with lyn being the straight woman just shitting on him all the time.
If you liked the old Sherah, give it a watch. Just know that they did pander to libs a bit but there is still fun to be had. Hamill is a hammy dick as Skelitor, and Scareglow is pretty evil in this.
Also, as an aside, its not progressive at all in the end. Teela and Lyn are both defined by their relationships with men and nobody every lezzes out.

200x would definitely need a new sculpt, head needs the sharper teeth. Probably can just reuse the LoP skeletor shins, and the normal armor but with the bones painted white. A new Havoc staff or swords would be cool, but I can see the standard ones being reused.

>>9534357 A new head sculpt, not head to toe. The armor standard Skeletor wears is already similar enough, the shins from LoP Skeletor are more than a close enough match, with a bit of paint you're close to having it down. Given we currently have 6 Skeletor heads(excluding Keldor), it doesn't seem like such a stretch to get that one new part. Skeletor has had a trend of constant new head sculpts.
I'm not saying it's a guarantee, but I am saying given what this line has done so far, it's not impossible or too unlikely.

>>9534381 >not impossible or too unlikely I will agree with "not impossible", I'll give you that...but I'm sticking to my guns that it's unlikely. Because, again, they couldn't even be bothered to give Evil-lyn even just the skirt, which could have just been a removable belt piece if they wanted to avoid doing any new tooling. If anything, I take your "6 heads" point as an argument in my favor just because most of them have only had one use so far and they're already putting out another new one with Terror Claws so they've got lots of options to choose from to be cheap

>>9535123 looks like I made a solid call then. Do her arms have ball hinges by chance or just cut joints? can I throw her arms out to the side? Frankly doesn't look like it, but

What the hell is going on with Trapjaw's, uh, jaw?

>>9535308 Looks like what's left of the chin skin is fused with his tongue, which I guess could maybe happen in some real screwed up accident involving acids or fire. He definitely doesn't have his lower jaw either way.

>>9535343 But compared to the original & Classics, the jaw looks bad too. The whole head is terrible.
But the Origins head is shit, too. It's almost as bad as Skeletor's wrist foreskins.

>>9535338 The jaw bone is missing, so his tongue is still there. How do you think he speaks? It isn't like he has a synthesized voice or anything like that.

Because as much as 4chan complains about the show, if they do not completely blunder the figure, many will buy muscle mommy goddess Lyn. She's got the abs and the pixie cut for the snoo snoo.
Reborn orko just seems like an obvious double dip to sell with new heads and magic effects.

Imagine if you were a kid that was actually into all these properties that you had to wait 6 months to past a full year before getting an item.

>>9538089 Distribution has been really messed up this year and last year. This is on top of mattel not meeting demand for origins probably both intentionally and unintentionally. In Canada actual figures for this line didnt restock until nearly spring of 2021 and since then a ton of shit has been released. Buzzoff wave was planned for 2022 and was released with a good portion of US finding on shelves before Christmas ... fml. Personally I blame the waiting on scarcity. Also gives scalpers good reasons to be fucking sluts furthering the problem ...

Since they skipped wave 4, this late in the game I'm assuming wave 6 will also be skipped in my area, so now I'm waiting to see if wave 7 hits or if they just keep holding out another month and just stock wave 8

Miss out on Classics back in the day?
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>9538856 $110 each might not be that bad depending on what the makeup of the figures are. If a good chunk of it is stuff like Slime Pit He-Man, Blue Hordak, Draego-Man, Horde Princesses, the Super7 run etc., then it's not too crazy for Classics. Of course you are paying $10,000 upfront on what could easily be only 10 or so must-haves and depending on your MOTU taste possibly 60-80 whatever-tier characters. Somebody will buy it anyway.

Like, you can swap heads and hands, fine, but I a few cases colors don't match up, and they can't hold on to each other's accessories very well, armor can be too tight or two big...
Think of all the cool customization options if they could swap parts better
