@emeraldknightphotos the backdrop to your photo looks awesome.

@emeraldknightphotos Now that you have He-Man mate is it your plan to collect the entire Classics line?

@elder I will probably cherry pick some of the core figures and will just buy loosies. I was out of collecting during the reign of Classics and sadly missed out. Way too expensive to dive all in at this point

@emeraldknightphotos If you did start collecting Classics today mate it would fascinating to run a tally on how much it would cost to obtain them all.

Would anyone want to wager a guess on what it would cost today to purchase the entire collection?

@elder if you included both castles I’d say around 30k. I don’t have time to do the actual math, that’s just a rough guess

That sounds about right.

That is astonishing. I ponder where Origins and Masterverse will value in ten years.

Latest pick up! Didn’t pay too much out of pocket for this one. Cutting back on how many lines I collect so I traded in a few at my local shop

I haven't seen a lot of people mention this, but the Hover Robot that comes with the Origins Crimson Horde Trooper looks a LOT like a Classics mold repainted.  

If this is the case, I'm gonna need a couple for my Classics collection to be complete! 😛

@abaddon I was surprised to see that too - it looks identical to the Classics version. Would they keep a mould sitting around for that long?

The same mould but sized smaller?

I don't think they'd have to resize it, those bots were about the right size for Origins. I'd bet money it's just the Classics bot.

@abaddon I didn’t realize this until I saw it on toy habits site. I will most likely buy more than my usual 2. I love the color

@asterstar Hopefully not! 😆 But seriously, I don't think Mattel would bother to shrink it down when it looks great the way it is.

@brasco Me too! I'm expecting to see a few Crimson Horde Troopers on ebay ... but I'm sure they'll be an easy sell to Origins fans. 🙂 Everybody wins!

That's a really good question. It's been a while, but they kept molds around for Masters of the WWE accessories, reusing a ton of stuff from Classics.

The Tri-Klops vest was reused for the Undertaker and that thing has been around since 2009. Also, while on the subject of Tri-Klops, the glow in the dark ring was reused for the mini-comics Tri-Klops released in Origins.

So fingers crossed!

Is there legal mumbo jumbo involved to reproduce the classics version exactly? I think they will size it down to scale with the 5.5 figures and so you can tell them apart.

I feel like there was some speculation that the origins Keldor head was the same as the classics head, but I don't remember the specifics but he's not a filmation design, so that could be where things are funky.
