@alteredquantum It seems pretty clear to me from the pics that they're going to lean into the campy side of MOTU, maybe with a Guardians of the Galaxy kind of feel to it. Depending on the director's s...

@smitty-81 It would be a long list. Off the top of my head in the spur of the moment, Filmation created characters that have never gotten a figure yet: Kothos Admiral Scurvy Gamemaster Ileena Zilora S...

@smitty-81 I guess so, since it was a lot harder to access by not being offered through retail outlets. And yeah, I get wanting these guys in the vintage scale. I'm all for it, I'm just impatient abou...

@smitty-81 The only Filmation-created character is Fang Man, and just like Vultak before him, he was already previously done in Classics. While I'm happy to get him, c'mon Mattel - start making charac...

Why Oklahoma City?? That's such an uninspiring flyover place...

@wundar That would be a mistake. We shouldn't assume that this movie will be a big enough hit that it will generate a sequel off the bat. It should stand on its own as a complete film, leaving the doo...

@mighty-thanos 38 years later, I'm still utterly confused by a lot of the decisions made for that movie. It could, and should, have been so much better than it was.

@banthafett Not to sound insensitive, but I kind of like that because the packages are open without damaging the card, so you can re-seal them if you want to display MOC...

If those rumours are true, then MV is getting more and more boring.

When's the next huge reveal drop? Mid March? I feel like it happens around that time every year, aside from SDCC.

@dorko Trap Jaw being my very first MOTU figure way back in 1982, I want him to look as close to vintage as possible. C'mon director - don't fuck this up!!!

@dorko No excuse this time for no Orko and BC. We have the technology (well, we did in the 80's too...).

A proper Filmation power sword - that's boosting my optimism a little at least!

Panthor is definitely a miss. Just saw some in-hand pictures on Toy Habits. The shiny paint combined with the dark, eggplant purple just isn't what it needs to be. MOTU is colourful by nature - embrac...

It would be nice to get a whole bunch of one-off MOTU comics that focus on a single character. I'd even go a step further and say that He-Man and Skeletor should be kept out of such focused, niche sto...

@longtooth Ha! I love it. I was convinced they would never put Fisto in a live action movie because of his name alone. And hey, if we get Fisto, it's only fair that Jitsu needs to be in the movie too...

@elder Imagine this movie unexpectedly becomes a hit, and foam Fisto hands become a thing??

@wundar King Grayskull is black.

@caliban Well that's no fun!

As if they're actually putting FISTO in this big budget mainstream movie - I can't wait to hear the giggling in the theatre at the film's expense when his name gets uttered! That said, at least they c...

@onlyoneskeletor You are certainly correct that Mattel has made some deep cut characters in Origins that weren't done before, but I think we were specifically talking about the Cartoon Collection. Unt...

I hope he's still in the bulking phase and will soon enter the cutting phase, because that double chin I'm seeing has go to go before cameras roll!

@filmgeek It won't rival Classics until they actually grow a pair and start delving into deep cut characters, especially ones that haven't been done as figures before. Then it'll be legit. Until that ...

@thedoctor While it is a bit sad, he purposely chose to live like a recluse. It's not like he wasn't aware of the huge fan adoration and demand. That's entirely on him.

The multiverse makes literally anything possible now - particularly lazy writing!
