Maaaan this is sad. We could have finally gotten a proper Snake-Woman, instead we get a Star Trek Orion lady with optional snake tail? All the Snake-Men are reptilian, even the human-like appearance of King Hisss is just a disguise. Why would their queen look basically human? They should have given her a snake head and scaly torso too.
And that whole retcon just makes no sense and also makes King Hisss look like a simp... So what, the Snake-Men came from some planet? They are alien invaders? Pretty sure that is the Evil Horde's deal. Also pretty sure King Hisss has been their ruler even in ancient times when he fought King Grayskull, not this lady.
At any rate, hashtag NotMySnakeMen.

It was implied they might be alien or at least conquered other planets.


I like all the snake men shown, instead of those we got the two parts reuse chumps in the diabolical snake invasion set.
I think Lady Slither's inspiration was King Hiss's human servant girl there.

I kinda get it (because the know they can get it) and at the same time wonder how much they'll pull this sort of thing next year as the vintage toy stuff become creations only. I don't want to pay that for some character like Rokkon.

Can't say I care much for her as a character. This "this is the actual leader of..." card was already pulled with Horde Prime and now King Hiss is just a wannabe, she's the real boss? Where's Randor's real boss? Oh, right, that's Queen Marlena. LOL

The voting thing. No Royal Palace. I think we know the Fight Zone and Snake set will win.

I'd love a Royal Palace.

Where's the Slime Pit?

[an99]

Voted for the Fight Zone and Snake Lair.

I personally love this Lady Slither--the box, the outer box... all of it looks fantastic to my eyes at least, instant purchase!!

[Comedian]

Oh man. Not one of the 5 items are bad. Is there a “I want all button”? I’m going for the doom tower and the tank.

[firmpulse]

Attack Track and Horde Tank. That Horde Tank is fantastic.

@BB Shockwave:
In the Filmation He-Man cartoon there was also a human Snake Clan who existed in Eternia's past. Their leader, Zilora, was one of the inspirations for Lady Slither.

Fright zone!

Attack Trak for me. Filmation Attack Trak is a holy grail of mine. I realized after voting that they did not specify Origins or Masterverse. (edit) Should have realized it was for Origins. They haven't bothered even doing a Castle Grayskull for Masterverse. Granted that would likely just be a re-issue of the Classics. I hope it can still accommodate 7 inch figures. I would likely use if for my Filmation Classics figures. Attack Trak.

Lady Slither lasted an hour, longer than your moth...er... Yeah, not sure why she was more popular than Fangor (who took a few hours to sellout, IIRC), or if they made less of her.

[CosmicCreature]

Yay awesome soldout, had to work I just missed out on ladt slither,

I hate exclusives so much

I think they choose the time of day based on that. It's aimed at scalpers/resellers who don't have real jobs.

I hate exclusives like this, too. Make it to order, screw it, I'll wait 10 months if everyone can get theirs. But these companies love Fear of Missing Out. Also, it probably means that lazy effort figures like He-Skeletor wouldn't get that many orders.

[Solrac333]

Cool! I need to get her... sold out.
