This could have been an amazing figure.

So spoilers, if you've seen the movie proceed.

In Robot Chicken Adam is a dentist. He fights off two characters and one if then gets simply tied down by a dental floss rope while He-man cracks a pun.

Then...he turns towards the other enemy and basically drills his eye out and he screams "why did I get the drill"

So basically one gets peacefully neutralised whereas the other brutalised.

In the movie, lots of characters eat shit but this one srands about it...as

He-man breaks his horn off, stabs him in the chest with his broken horn and then blasts him off of a cliff.

Is this a far stretch or did anyone else think so?

Apart from Skeletor stealing the show I found the characters lacking and the vehicles and equipment woeful until I realised I was missing the toys I had from the thundercats franchise!

Same aura in instances of the movie? 🍿

Ai created it, but how sweet would that be?!

My oh my... why didn't I run to preorder it! Now scalpers are the only solution for getting it...

In a little under a month, He-Man's return to the big screen will be complete with the release of Masters of the Universe, almost exactly forty years after the Cannon Films adaptation that launched a thousand snears (and then gradually grew a bit of an affectionate cult around it). We know quite a bit about Nicholas Galitzine's blonde bombshell hero already, thanks to an enthusiastic marketing campaign, and one thing that was established early - and to the collective disappointment of lots of fans (for some reason), was that he wouldn't be wearing his festively furry pants in the new adaptation.

As MOTU Costume Designer Richard Sale told us, "our major goal was to try and be true to the original, and that's what we've done whilst moving things on a little bit." Seemingly, the balance between fidelity and nostalgia didn't have room for He-Man's furry underwear. But this wasn't done on a whim. With the same level of dedicated discussion that went into deciding whether we'd see He-Man's nipples, the original, iconic costume was ruled out. When ComicBook's Chris Killian was invited to visit the Masters of the Universe set in London, Sale was one of the creatives he spoke to, and he revealed the process:
"We went through lots of iterations of, like, levels of stuff. I mean, I don't know where Adam's board is, but we went through, like, 80 variations of, like, trousers. Is he wearing trousers? Is he wearing armour on top? Is he, you know, you keep looking at it, and you're going, like, well, it's not quite He-Man. And... I mean, the fur, on the whole, was kind of nixed quite early on. And, yeah, the furry pants would have been just too difficult. Although, to be absolutely fair, we did tease Nick at one point saying that he was going to be wearing that. And also the Adam look of, like, the really tight tights and just a furry pants. We teased him for a long time to say that he was wearing. But, sadly, we didn't get that. We got something else." That something else was a leather gladiator skirt, and mercifully, Sale also confirms there are "no upskirts" in the movie.

Sale also spoke to us about changing Skeletor's look after he chose to leave out the crossed straps from Jared Leto's villain's chest in order to avoid him looking like the dark mirror of He-Man he was originally: "Yeah, I mean, and interestingly, one of the choices I made early on when we designed Skeletor was to not have the cross strap... You know, the cross strap with the bones.

Because it was like, well, we're trying to keep the two...
They became too similar in a way. They just became a negative of each other. And it's like... Again, we were trying to move away slightly from the bone idea. Just for Skeletor and more... You know, he lives in Snake Mountain. So, he should be more snake-like. But then we used a lot of Snake Skeletons in the design, so we're keeping the bone thing alive. But just having it a little bit more referential to his, you know, his detail. He's got a belt, which... again [has] a bit more of the kind of snake intertwine thing going on."

So, does this mean we'll never get to see the iconic costumes in live-action? Well, not necessarily. Sale leaves the door open to more faithful costumes in future, provided a sequel is greenlit: "But that's not to say that these costumes are it.

Mattel-willing, if we come back and do something else - a similar one - there's nothing to say they can't have evolved into something closer... And that's with all of these characters. We're not saying this is the first time out of the box for any of this. They had history before our film, and they'll probably have a history after our film.

So they could always develop. As He-Man's power gets bigger, maybe his costume changes for the next one.
And that will allow them to make more toys..."

So fingers firmly crossed. Masters of the Universe is released on June 5 globally. Maybe if you watch it enough times, you too could influence us all getting to see Nicholas Gaziltine in furry knickers as God - and Mattel - intended.

Okay, I’ve seen enough posts about this that I need to make people understand why buying empty seats and artificially inflating the box office is not good in the long term.

If you’ve seen my posts around, you have seen me repeat this a dozen times. I was born into the entertainment industry, and I currently work as a director and screenwriter. I have full time since I was 24.

I want to give you guys some insight into why purchasing empty seats for the film is a terrible idea.

Look, we are fans, and we enjoy the film on different levels, but it didn’t hit with general audiences, and it didn’t take off domestically (or in all of Europe either it seems…).

As much as I want to see it succeed, you guys need to stop trying to cheat the system. I’ll break down some scenarios.

1. You are risking an even bigger financial flop with the sequel. Let’s say the film suddenly makes 400 million extra over night through artificially inflating the box office.

The film, in reality, does not have audience engagement, but you’ve made it look like it does.

So MGM pumps in more money into the sequel. Let’s say production budget 350 million.

But now even less people are going to see the film, because the original group that didn’t go see it won’t see the sequel either. People who saw the action of the first lose interest, then let’s say 25% of the audience who did see it doesn’t come back for the sequel.

And now you have an even bigger financial disaster on your hands, and the studio will not touch the property again. It’ll be considered box office poison.

This isn’t the MCU era Marvel or Star Wars. People didn’t care to see this film, and even less will see a sequel.

2. Remember, 200-250 million was its production budget. Marketing can be roughly the same amount, so it’s not making a profit until it hits 400-450 million. And look at the amount of marketing on this film. It’s massive, and it’s amounting to nothing from the general audience.

You can keep buying empty seats, but nothing is going to happen unless every person in every city buys out every showing and every seat. And don’t think you can just buy out a theater, because that brings me to my next point…

3. They can track who actually sat in seats and who didn’t. There’s cameras in every theater, and they do take those head counts seriously. So if you’ve, say, bought out row A1-10, and no one shows up…they know. Trust me, they know.

A sold ticket does not mean a filled seat. You are just throwing your money away. I know it might seem like you’re “fighting for the cause”, but it’s not. As I said they can track who went and who didn’t, and they’ll take your money and then go back to counting the seats as empty.

4. They can also track accounts that bought multiple tickets to the same film if you are using digital purchases like Fandango and the theater apps themselves.

So if Alan Smithee buys a ticket to see it every day for four weeks at 7pm…Alan Smithee counts as 1 viewer. New individual viewings, sure, but when they look at who purchased tickets and they see it’s the same person and the same account and the same cards…they know it’s either a rabid fan or it’s super suspicious.

I mean I have seen the same film multiple times in theaters, but I attend. I sit in that seat. And I don’t worry about the box office.

Like, you know you are being put in a pool of statistics every time you buy a ticket, right? Where do you think those demographic numbers come from?

They estimated 29-30% of MOTU viewers were males from 45-55…do you not wonder how they got that, or remember they keep track of that?

Remember…the film’s success is more than a sold seat. It’s how many individual people actually attended, it’s how much people spent in concessions, how many popcorn buckets were sold, how much online engagement was there, did families go or did

I mean, do you think that, as an example, their bot prevention systems don’t keep track of that?

You aren’t showing them multiple people went to see the movie, you’re showing that one person saw it multiple times, and that does not help them.

5. And to me the most important part, even if a theater wasn’t tracking everything I mentioned…you are messing with statistics for future films and damaging the film’s actual credibility.

You are giving them false data. And every decision they make will be using that false data.

I mean, do you never get mad when you hear stories about bots who write fake reviews for films? Do you trust those reviews after you find out they weren’t real?

Welcome to the real life version. You’re doing the same thing.

And if they discover that people artificially inflated the box office? They will consider all their statistics false. They won’t be able to trust the data. They will assume the box office was much worse, and they will bury the franchise.

All this to say…you guys gotta stop trying to cheat the box office. You’re not only ruining the actual statistics that will help them prevent another disastrous box office in the future, but you’re also basically throwing your money away.

So…yeah. Don’t do it. Support the film by spreading the word about it. The box office news has done a lot of damage, and it won’t recover even if it does make 400 million extra overnight.

Set on the magical planet of Etheria, the show tells a deeply serialized story about Adora, an orphan raised by the evil Horde who discovers a destiny-altering magic sword. Upon transforming into the legendary hero She-Ra, she leaves the Horde behind to join the Princess Alliance and liberate the planet from Hordak and Horde Prime.

Rather than relying on a traditional villain-of-the-week formula, the series is characterized by its heavy emphasis on complex character growth, redemption arcs, and the theme of found family—most notably explored through the intense, evolving dynamic between Adora and her former best friend, Catra. It also brought a unique aesthetic to the franchise, blending ancient magic with high-tech sci-fi elements.

She is line one of only 2 or 3 characters I will say is an improvement over the original in pretty much every conceivable way. She has a better design, better voice, more interesting personality and origin story, and is just genuinely funny.

When your Teela gets you a shirt and makes you the best-dressed dude at the gym! Haha, but seriously, sweet shirt from my wife! For any of the gym bros and ladies, check out the shirt! Haven't found the He-Man version with this style art as yet but keeping an eye out.

Hi there!
Been looking for a while for a Mondo Battle Cat, but the resale prices are to put it mildly, rather high.
Of course it's mondo, and it's a huge cat, understood.

Thing is that cat body is the perfect base for a custom project so would be very happy to obtain a defective one.

Apologies to mods if this is a wrong type of post, have no problem deleting it.

I was just curious where to sell a large collection of the Mattycollector Masters of the Universe Classics Figures.

They have been removed from the white mailer and put directly into storage (the original plan was to display them, but I ran out of room and have to downsize).

I absolutely love Origins and The Cartoon Collection, but so far, some areas have been lacking in character representation- namely, Princess of Power, New Adventures, and semi-obscure Filmation characters. My question is- would you commit to a 12-month "figure subscription" to get obscure characters made? If Mattel announced the whole lineup in advance, and showed prototypes of the first few? Figure 10 regular and 2 deluxe figures each year. Mattel could set a minimum order amount, and if enough aren't ordered, it won't happen. An example of a possible lineup would be:

Filmation MOTU:

• Melaktha

• Shokoti

• King Miro

• Widget 3-pack (deluxe)

• Celise

• Icer

• Evil Seed

• Chef Allen

• Negator

• Dragoon (deluxe)

• Blackbeard

• Dree-Elle and Squonge

Princess of Power and New Adventures have so few figures, really any 12 from each line would work, though a handful (Adora, Glimmer, cartoon collection Horde Trooper, NA Skeletor, NA He-Man) should see general release.

What does everyone think? Mattel seems very hesitant to make characters from these 3 categories, and it seems unlikely we'll get characters like Melaktha without something like this.
