EXO Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Oh so that wasn't He-Man that was available at SDCC but King Grayskull. Awesome, I wanted a more faithful sculpt to the OG He-Man and it looks like we're getting it. No I want a He-Man and Battlecat so bad!

bsu legato Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Didn't they already try to re-launch He-Man just a few years ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComicKaze Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Didn't they already try to re-launch He-Man just a few years ago? Now they're smart and instead of trying update them into new "XTREME" toys and make them cool for new kids, they're just going to go for the total retro route ala Hasbro and Anniversary Joes.

Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Didn't they already try to re-launch He-Man just a few years ago? They did but the line was full of He man and Skeletor repaints. Cartoon was great, figures were great, until the later waves. Now they're smart and instead of trying update them into new "XTREME" toys and make them cool for new kids, they're just going to go for the total retro route ala Hasbro and Anniversary Joes. And instead of going through retail where some of the characters planned would have no chance in hell selling, Mattel is going directly to collectors via their collector site. Price is $19.99, limit 3 figures per household but this may change depending on how many initial orders there are on the first figures go on sale. Skeletor, Beast Man, Zodac, Mer Man and a few others are confirmed. Anyone that showed up in the 2002 cartoon can be made, only filmation characters that did not show up anywhere outside the original cartoon cannot be made.

Uxi Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Hopefully they do the extra articulation and all that, too. I could maybe see myself getting a new Evil Horde... For myself, at least, He-Man is just a bit too... gay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shin Densetsu Kai 7.0 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Hopefully they do the extra articulation and all that, too. They did, same articulation as the 4H's DCUC figures. -ball jointed neck -hinged ankles, elbows, knees and abs -bicep and thigh swivels. -ball jointed shoulders, 4H universal movement t crotch hips.

Max Jenius Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) Has He-Man ever used a shield in the cartoon? I never saw this growing up and it bothered me. Same with that double-edged axe. Edited August 2, 2008 by Max Jenius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Has He-Man ever used a shield in the cartoon? I never saw this growing up and it bothered me. Same with that double-edged axe. I think he used the axe once. I don't remember the shield at all. The cartoons sucked except for the characters' line-art. The comic books that came with the toys didn't have all that Prince Adam crap. And the Attack Trak toy was a lot better than the bus they had in the cartoon... and don't even mention that Orko BS. He's the 7-Zark-7/Ewok of the whole thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsu legato Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Now don't lynch me, He-Fans, but wouldn't that technically be classified as a "buckler?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_foul_fowl Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 I can't remember if the cartoon He-Man ever used a shield, but I'm sure the toy which I have somewhere in the house, comes with it, looks exactly like in the pic!
