Hi I been around on several forums including Mattel Creations and the closest I have been able to find is a reply from Mattel was a mod at Mattel Creations that it is likely they were already working on SPOP Masterverse figures, he did say he could not verify it so is there anything that actually prevents Mattel other than Mattel here?

Masterverse wishlist:
Catra 2018 (season 4)
He-Man 2002 (Snake Armor)
King Hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss 2002
She-Ra 2018 (season 5)
Skeletor 2002

@zexisstryfe mentioned connections to Mattel and distributors. Have you heard about this z?

I snagged a set of the Super7 releases several years ago; they got crazy expense fast.  Great figures, but there is no way I could justify the current price they are going for.  When I picked them up, they were like $200 for the set, Shera and Catra.  Now they go from $600 to $800.  I wish Super7 would do a re-release if nothing else.  I am not a MOC collector and prefer to open everything, but I just can't bring myself to tear into those two.

Hmm. Hopefully I am wrong.... but I have this feeling that (I believe) unlike the Princess of Power subline, Dreamworks would take a piece of these figures if they did make them, which may be enough to discourage Mattel from making these figures. 🤔

Well the Filmation She-Ra ones they also do get a piece of the cake, same with Orko AFAIK so that cannot possibly be that much more costly?

Sadly was no good here the Super7 and original Mattel line was both US exclusives.

I'd be all over Masterverse SPOP figures! 😍 

But in order to faithfully replicate the character's looks, Mattel would have to create new molds for the bodies and heads. If not just new sculpts for the heads at least. 

I hope we get them, the Masterverse line is Mattel's Star Wars Black/Marvel Legends. This line has so much potential to give us soooo many characters. 

Curiously, say if we did ever get SPOP Masterverse figs....which characters would you guys want for Wave? :3

I mean...other than She-Ra/Adora and Catra, that's a no-brainer. lol

I would LOVE a Mermista and Sea-Hawk toy.

@sshook27 I'm so jell 😭 🤣 To be honest, I think the Super 7 She-Ra and Catra look better in box, on account of the minimal articulation (but that's coming from a 80% MOC collector, lol) The sculpts and colours are goregous tho. ❤️ 

Did you ever pick up any of Mattel's SPOP dolls? THe 12 inch fashion dolls that were also put out for the series?

My daughter and I were able to pick up the whole series including the Shera/Shadow Weaver SDCC 2 pack.

honestly at this point I buy what ever they make, I do not care if Catra looks extra muscular and is same height as She-Ra at this point I just want them in my collection. I just pray they are not USA exclusive AGAIN! Also preferably the late show designs Season 4 Catra and Season 5 She-Ra would be amazing! 😍

@catra yes plz! 😭 Those outfits were EVERYTHING! 

and that's actually a really good point you made, Catra. Mattel could just use the same bodies as they have been using for all of the other Masterverse figures.

Like when they did 200x He-Man and Skeletor as part of the Origins line and they just used the same Origins bodies/faces for them instead of recreating the actual sculpts of the original 200x figures.

(which I still kinda wish they did but to see the 200x series getting aknowledged made the 2000's kid in me super happy! 😊 lol)

So yeah, as long as Mattel will support SPOP, I will buy! ❤️

Well, I am going to be be posting something today that briefly suggests that perhaps there's an extra layer of restriction to the Princesses of Power versus just the Princess of Power? At least it seems that way. More soon. 🙂

Well if you have a way to ask Mattel to verify I would love to have all the info about it, doesn't really help if I ask Mattel and they cannot do it. My personal suspicion is that it has something to do with Mattel boy toys and girl toys departments, I actually think it could be that they cannot make Masterverse ones because the girl toy department has dibs on it? 🤔

@admin Well I did look at the podcast so as far as we know it seems like nothing actually prevents comics? So we just gotta wait for comics and then figures? In theory but those will be slightly altered I bet. I am hyped if we get them I am just gonna cross my fingers, keep collecting the S:POP and hope the SPOP ones comes out. 😀

@catra Hopefully I am wrong, but it seemed to me that the only thing Tim believed would be restricted in the comics is SPOP, not really S:POP.

I timestamped the moment

So if there is an extra hurdle to jump with the comics for SPOP, then perhaps that extra hurdle also applies to the figures as well. But this is just me extrapolating so I'm not certain, and as Tim said (paraphrasing) he's not in the legal side of it. 🙂

Isn't S:POP and SPOP the same thing? I'm confused.

Aw, thanks for sharing that! It's so nice that you're getting thoughtful responses and not seemingly AI as you mentioned, or just form responses. Let's hope your request moves up the chain and is considered! It can't be the first request made to them, right? The show has a lot of fans!
