@smitty-81 The figures that show up early on ebay usually have those useless blank comics.

@asterstar you say useless I say unobstructed art.

The top pic looks like they just stuffed Donnie’s card in lol

Cool pic though 

Krang is in his box. That's new.

@heathershalla We got another clue how that mutated He-Man is gonna look

@he-dad The "He-Mutant" on display may not be the final version. Hopefully we'll get some more images for this show.

Hope Mutant He-Man is translucent and the one in the pic is a prototype. 

FWIW, Ram-Man appears to be translucent in that pic.

@chrisa The one used in the stop-motion video was also translucent.

@smitty-81 I noticed that, I'm assuming that means the production figure will be translucent. I hope so, it's an interesting look.

@chrisa I don't think they would use prototypes or test samples for something like that.

I wonder why put it our there like that then bro. The other version exists. We've seen it.

@he-dad logistics. They have to pack and ship everything from Mattel HQ to toy shows all over the world. The product samples need to be at HQ for photography and other promotional stuff that's done in house. People in the toy business either don't care if the final product is different or they better understand that what they see it not the final product.

@he-dad oh. Lol. Now I’m back to not liking it. We’re getting alternating views of opaque vs translucent skin. The translucent is obviously way better. Fingers crossed. Maybe the translucent ones were just used in some promos and aren’t going to be sold. Would still love to get my hands on one somehow.

@heathershalla 

@asterstar looks like he's made from translucent plastic but it's so thick you can't really see through all his parts.

@smitty-81mmmmmm? I like it.

@asterstar i love Mr. Home Arcades stuff.

I gave it a turn. What is that voice he is putting on? I found it a bit daft. 

@asterstar Nice find bro!

Does that defeat the purpose?

So it looks like it is a mix of both so where does that land on your like meter?

@he-dad Yes and no. It really depends what what look they were going for.

Still kinda seems shady.

@he-dad it's really not, nearly every business that makes any kind of product does it. Kenner use to put a disclaimer on their packaging, "product and colors may vary" just incase they made changed between photography and final production.

@he-dad If we get the same thing as Mr. Home Arcade, then I love it. Seems like they tested out a few different materials, which I appreciate. They are really trying to make a quality product. Love how this video showed him outside and under a blacklight. I'm actually getting really jazzed about the mini comics. The stop-motion video did a good job of piquing my interest about the story without giving a lot away. This marketing team deserves an A+.

@elder I know it's daft. I love that sort of thing. You should watch some of the motu commercials he makes.

@daavid I always think that's gotta hurt his throat!
