Wow, crisp! Thanks for the updated images, these look GREAT!

Da_Last_2_Walk · 07-24-2009, 06:15 PM

Scare Glow is on hit! He looks Demonic!

Check out Trap Jaw's face up close! Scary!

What's up with Trap Jaw's alternate head? I know I've been sipping, but it looks like the Hulk's face?

My girl Adora will buss a cap in yo azz!

C.I.A.D. · 07-24-2009, 06:45 PM

That's the head TJ would've been sporting if he wouldn't have messed with He-Man's money.

TheMurkyDepths · 07-24-2009, 06:47 PM

Yup, Trap Jaw came up short with He-Man's money.

Your new avatar looks sick!

About the new characters, Green Goddess, Trapjaw with the human body and Zodak, are they considered new characters? Hoping Zodak's helmet will be removable

I hope I'm understanding your question correctly...because if not, this answer will make no sense (lol).

They're all established characters within the Mythos. Back when He-Man first Launched, the old card backs referenced him as a Space Traveler that, through whatever wacky hijinks, ended up on Eternia. The Green Goddess gives him the Power Sword so that he can fight baddies and be uber-badass.

Zodak has been around since the line first launched.

I hope this info helps (?)

Thanks for the reply!

Just found out that the 2 versions of Trapjaw are just the human and cyborg versions. So he is just one character and will be released as just one figure with removable parts and limbs. In regards to the Green Goddess, her cardback will give me the answer to my question. I will consider Zodak totally different from Zodac.

Yes, exactly. Sorry, should've been more clear on that. Kinda like your moustache-less MAA or Merman, it's just a different head.

I too am interested in seeing the write up on her.

It makes my brain twitch. lol. Zodak. Then Zodac. Then Zodak. Next will be Z0D@K or something.

We could treat Zodak and Zodac just like Hal Jordan and John Stewart of the DC Universe

Shogi · 07-24-2009, 09:46 PM

So does the Scare Glow actually Glow in the dark?

If so, I'm afraid, I'm gonna have to buy a figure from this line

Well, get those funds ready because yes, yes he does!

scarecrow · 07-24-2009, 10:12 PM

You know, I know nothing about MOTU but I might buy that Scare Glow.

Da_Last_2_Walk · 07-24-2009, 10:18 PM

In all of Scare Glow's bad assary, I wish his staff was the glow-in-the-dark version instead of the green staff!

makxsh1mum · 07-25-2009, 01:45 AM

Wow, these look awesome. I'm a complete noob to MOTU stuff. Will these eventually go on sale at brick and mortar places like TRU? And how much do they typically run? Sorry for the noob questions, but seeing these great figs make me wanna start collecting a little.

TheMurkyDepths · 07-25-2009, 02:13 AM

welcome to the wonderful world of motu makxsh1mum. mattycollecter.com is the only place to buy these badboyz (apart from ebey) $20 a pop with one released on the 15th of each month.

maybe a female one? Zodaque? Hahahahaha

RedHeadKevin · 07-25-2009, 06:08 AM

Sweet Burger King figure! They make him look so badass!

Moss Man looks good. I like the "woody" details on his club (no, that wasn't dirty.)
I wonder if he'll still smell like @$$

I like the compromise they did for BA He-Man. I'm glad they didn't include the "springy-spinny-chest" thing. It's a nice way to include the "one scar/two scar" chest.

(PS, I know it's King Randor, but come on. Tell me it doesn't look like the Burger King.)

Pine Sol, actually.

First time I saw the pic of Randor, two things popped into my head at once:

"Wow, they making He-Man's dad! Cool!"

and

"He'd make an awesome Burger King custom!"

Runamuck · 07-25-2009, 08:28 AM

What is with the loaf of bread? And why isn't Teela wearing her normal garb? Anyways...I know I keep saying I am done with this freakin line because of sell outs galore when i can't be around the computer, but I really want them.

I hope Scare Glow actually glows...and I hope Battle Armor He-Man actually has the spin chest gimmick like the original, rather than just a plate you switch out.

Runamuck · 07-25-2009, 08:39 AM

Also, how do you get into this "fan club" to get their exclusives?

Just head over to MattyCollector.com and sign up for the Eternia club/subscription. That way you get a figure each month in 2010 and don't have to worry about finding a computer on the 15th of each month...unless you want the figures that aren't part of the subscription!

I don't care for Wonderbread He-Man myself (though I'm sure there are others who are geeked to be getting him) and the Eternia map I can live without...so I'm not sure I want to pull the plug on the subscription. My wife's job future is still cloudy and w/ our first child on the way in October I'm not sure what my hobby fund will be so it's a lot to commit upfront...at least for me. Besides, I've been able to buy each figure since King Grayskull started it all off last year w/ minimal trouble so I just might take my chances and go month to month.

I do like most of the figures shown thus far. Scareglow looks awesome as does Moss Man. At least the line seems to have a strong future.

Whew, at first i thought you HAD to sign up for the subscription in order to even buy anything. Good to know you can buy one-offs here and there.

The loaf of Bread is a homage to the Wonder Bread "Wun-Dar" figure giveaway. Back in the day, he was the stuff of legend....and apparently yeast & water

As for Teela...that snake wrap head dress is normal garb! :O I know!
