@cosmic Night Stalker is coming later this month. It looks like MC is doing a VC figure every other month so it'll be him or Demo-Man in August the the other one in November, but by then SDCC will be behind us and we'll have plenty of new reviews to talk about. Also wave 4 of ToG and wave 4 of the CC Figures in hand.

@cosmic With regard to Geldor, I'm all about the many one-off villains on Eternia who were NOT affiliated in any way with Skeletor, but who nevertheless gave He-Man plenty of trouble too. I'd love it if Mattel would make a whole bunch of those guys. We could have a serious rogue's gallery.

@durendal Yeah I wouldn’t mind some of those. Classics did several. There were a lot of those in Filmation. Would be cool if they did some from international comics and books, too.

@cosmic they've already done Anti-Eternia He-Man who comes from Germany, now Geldor from the vintage mini comics and Demo-Man who was an early concept for the main villain of MOTU. I'm not well verst in the international lore but I seem to recall an oddly colored giant evil He-Man from Italy I think who could make for an interesting figure.

@smitty-81 It’s true, there will be plenty more to discuss, though as someone who’s focusing on VC now, only doing very few ToG and CC, with the odd MV thrown in, I realize my collecting is slowing down. Compared to the previous years.

Which is what I really need, due to space and budget. But I’m wrestling a bit with it. 😏

@cosmic I'm in the same boat. I'm only getting one CC figure per wave, mostly for the mini comic. But I am going all in on ToG because I was as into TMNT as much as I was into MOTU.

@admin I like that he's using some CC parts, but I'm sick of Ram-Man's double sided ax.

I'm sick of it too, but at least he also comes with his own unique axe, although it looks identical to his Classics one...

 

I'm sick of it too. Enough with it already.

The axe is definitely from Classics but it's missing the gun metal paint in the middle.

@kraken hopefully it's been modified to fit the smaller grip of Origins figures.

@smitty-81 I'm sure Mattel will make sure its compatible.

Reused parts and accessories are definitely part of MOTU's charm, but there does seem to be a necessary balance required. 🙂

The truth is I never liked that ax. The handle is too short.

I think a lot of people have expressed that sentiment!

Terroar. I know the history but it needed to be said.

I'm all in on Terroar. That's just a great and absurd reuse of parts.

@dynamicg That's what I love about Terroar. The rest of the Lost Wave is just variations on existing characters, Snake Horde Trooper, Heroic Ninjor, snake/lizard Clawful, then Terroar. He's so ridiculous but somehow he fits right in.

@smitty-81 Totally agree, except I have weird love for Lord Gr'Asp. I just imagine he's the Snake Men's version of Karg and there's something about the color scheme!

Random, but someone on ebay has some Origins prototypes for sale, this one looks like a kitbash with a WWE Yokozuna's head but I think he's holding Geldar's axe and it looks to size.

Could Vypor's belt/loincloth be used for Blade?
