MOTU Classics - Moss Man

Da_Last_2_Walk · 11-16-2009, 10:48 AM

It looks like we will finally get to see Moss Man soon!

Here's an update from MattyCollector:
We got in a new sample of Moss Man. Almost there. His fur is not quite the right color, so we're going to hold off until we have a more finished sample on this guy before posting.

I'm really looking forward to this figure primarily because of the 200X head sculpt.

And here is the Moss Man:

TheSymbiote · 01-05-2010, 11:40 AM

ghostdog0081 · 01-05-2010, 12:28 PM

Woooo Hooooo! He looks great, I can't wait for this one.

I like how the flocking turned out. The new head is an improvement over Beast Man's.

I think the new head makes him look like a Gorilla!

^ That actually makes sense in a weird way. Of course, all that's going through my head when I look at the pic is this:

"Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear...."

Looks pretty good, considering all the issues they had with the flocking dilemma.

cinemajay · 01-05-2010, 01:52 PM

So will he come with two different heads?

deliciouspeter · 01-05-2010, 01:58 PM

Yeah two heads. Many of these classic MoTU have two heads. I still can't believe this is how Mattel sells these though. It's horrible. They all get snapped up by stores/scalpers and sit in ebay purgatory until someone (like me) snaps and buys it for 2-5 times the price.

dark69 · 01-05-2010, 06:44 PM

looks ok but it looks to long

nomad1632 · 01-05-2010, 08:08 PM

i wonder go that moss material will hold up and if it'll be like the old school version ans peel and flake off

TheMurkyDepths · 01-05-2010, 11:37 PM

He looks so cuddly, I will love him and pet him an call him George!
...seriously though, he looks great, if not just a tad fluffy.

MegaPrime33 · 01-06-2010, 05:55 AM

Mattel has outdone themselves again in this series. Great figure.

Optimus Scourge · 01-06-2010, 10:14 AM

Looks pretty sweet!

Enigma2K2 · 01-06-2010, 10:26 AM

Good lord that new cartoon made him look badass.

theestampede · 01-06-2010, 07:49 PM

I'm not crazy about the ears, but I can live with it.

Mine still has his moss, but I've seen plenty where it has worn off. But yes, I hope this version stays together. Other than that concern, I think it looks great.

I agree that the new head makes him look like a primate. I'm glad that Toy Guru has confirmed that Mossy will smell though.... it just wouldn't be the same without that stink, even though it will be a slightly different odour to the 80s toy. I can't wait to take a sharp intake of breath when I open him up.
