Masters of the Universe Classics

[teemu]

With all the work that's been put into Snake Mountain and the simple fact that they want to get it out to the market, is it reasonable to think they already have ideas about revising the Eternia playset in 2017? I'd prefer the classic approach but if they could only justify the starship version I'd be cool with that.

Is Icon Heroes working on an Eternia statue by chance?

I'd prefer THE FRIGHT ZONE to be next

Icon Heroes has been pretty silent on the MOTU front lately.

I know this isn't a popular choice, but I'd actually like a Crystal Castle next. I think the 4H could knock that out of the park. Fright Zone was always a bit plain as a kid. Unless they did something like the fan mock-up that was a mix of the cartoon and toy looks.

Now this "Collector's choice" Sub I'd buy

View attachment 197079

I'd sub to get karg, then cancel and cherry pick lol.

Although I am not into the filiation designs, the Fright Zone is one that I would prefer the cartoon look over the vintage playset. Would be cool if they incorporate the 2.

I wouldn't buy the POP Castle.I am sure it would be a neat update,but way too girly to bother with that,plus I HIGHLY doubt it would sell to even make it

I'm pretty sure Icon Heroes is done with MOTU...
For some reason their ventures never seem to last long... it happened with ThunderCats, and now with MOTU... it's unfortunate, as I like their stuff...

Still missing Hoove who is my favorite of that line.

Hoove has been in Wave 2 and would be part of the mini sub.

Seriously guys, is ther no NA-love in this thread?

I'm an NA fan. I just love all things motu really. But I know it's not real high on most fans list.

 

[Eamon]

I'm not bothered, I just find it ridiculous when people bring up the Team Val or Team Emiliano...
We don't have to take sides, but some people like to keep it going as if it's somehow relevant to MOTU...

And if there's stuff going on behind the scenes we only get parts of the story, or half truths... I'm not going to take sides on a TOY line based on that... It's just silly.

I have heard this one before. You say you don't take sides and but given the general overview of whats been said and you dismissing it as half truths is taking a side. The wrong one too I would add. You also know that it's not an isolated incident yet you still feel there is doubt. Was me getting booted from the HM.org podcast a half truth then or is me not a part of that website when I was a major one (I helped build it. Emiliano did way more) just a half truth? Not to mention the many stories of censorship, heavy editing, long term members leaving etc. smoke means fire and all that jazz dude.
I understand that folks don't care for drama and you have heard little if anything from me on this topic but given the history of this thread and people on here, that drama ship has long sailed. There's plenty of drama talk here already. Feels selective when you try to clamp down like that.

I don't wish the continue with this conversation, I didn't want to have it. I don't do dirty laundry but given I was personally effected too along with others I could mention, (not just emiliano) I am going to take exception to your so called "neutrality".

Unless a moderator feels otherwise, I say let folks discuss what they wish.

I'm a big NA fan, myself. Not so much of the cartoon, but I really liked the figures and the mini-comics, after getting over the shock in-store of how different they were. I was really into Star Trek TNG at the time, so it was good timing, bring He-man into space, for me. The 4H have really done wonders with the figures. I love the NA She-Ra figure, too. It makes me wish we could see a NA Man-At-Arms and Teela. But, first I definitely want to get to the figures from the line. Hoove is definitely up there for me. So is Kayo, as he was a pretty major character in the mini-comics.

I'd also REALLY like an NA Sorceress (comic version) some day. One of the few customs I've ever attempted in my life was an NA Sorceress. She was made to fit in with the vintage line. (My sculpting was marginally better than my painting.)

I have to agree with this. The Fright Zone would have to be the next, great play set for MOTUC. I can only imagine how they would improve upon the original version. The puppet can now be an articulated beast that comes with the set. The back of the set could have more playability rather than JUST the front. The tree could be something better, although I wouldn't know how. I'm sure the 4H could come up with something.

I agree,Kuzeh enjoys telling others what he thinks people should say on here.If you don't like the conversation,then ignore it or don't participate

 

[Eamon]

Could do with some refinements but that's pretty decent Jon Wes!


The Fright Zone would be a lot more affordable too.

I like the idea of an articulated beast

Thanks! Oh, it could do with a LOT of refinements, but thanks for being nice about it. LOL. I made it back in 2008. My sculpting skills are... well, let's say "novice" but it was fun to do.

Update pics on my Stratos custom. Painting the white monkey face this afternoon.

It's mainly things like the straight lines or curved lines that need attention. If done precisely it can really improve a sculpt I feel. Its the same with art. you can have lovely rendering style but if a straight line is not straight, it can take a lot away.

 

[Eamon]

Do you see Stratos as an ape FatHotei?

 

[FatHotei]

Do you see Stratos as an ape FatHotei?

Well, I see him as an ape-man. I'm trying to inject a bit of planet of the apes into his design. I'm not a huge fan of the slight dopey look that Stratos has. I'm working to make his face more match the design of his body. We'll see how I feel about it when it's done. Worst case I just use the head on another custom and order a new stratos head off ebay.


Also, I have a 200x Stratos coming in the mail today that I'm going to tear down for parts.

I have heard this one before. You say you don't take sides and but given the general overview of whats been said and you dismissing it as half truths is taking a side. The wrong one too I would add.

How so? How exactly is avoiding non-sensical fanboy blabber taking "The Wrong side" exactly?
I am just saying that most people do not know, or even care about the whole fan forum drama, in fact I know A LOT of He-Man fans that don't even post on forums at all. The fact that some people that were part of all this even dare to suggest that WE as fans HAVE to take a side is as ridiculous as it is useless.
A private matter that was decided to be made public with no other purpose than to feed ego and power trips. There really is NO benefit to the fans whatsoever from it, in fact, it divided the opinions of some fans and there's the constant need for antagonizing each other for whatever reason.
It's like Democrats and Republicans... I'm here to enjoy MOTU, and I can enjoy it wherever I can, be it He-Man World, Matty forums, He-Man.org or here!

You also know that it's not an isolated incident yet you still feel there is doubt. Was me getting booted from the HM.org podcast a half truth then or is me not a part of that website when I was a major one (I helped build it. Emiliano did way more) just a half truth? Not to mention the many stories of censorship, heavy editing, long term members leaving etc. smoke means fire and all that jazz dude.

If smoke means fire, then I'm pretty sure certain things didn't just happen randomly... it sucks that it happened, but there might be a reason behind it, that at least I do not know... it sucks because I enjoyed the podcast a lot, and I am sure in your case it's way worse because you considered some of these guys your friends.
From what I saw it was a crappy move, and very sudden. I like chatting with you and seeing your work, and your opinion matters. But again, you cannot and should not ask fans to take YOUR side, that's what I am saying. Same with Emiliano...

I understand that folks don't care for drama and you have heard little if anything from me on this topic but given the history of this thread and people on here, that drama ship has long sailed. There's plenty of drama talk here already. Feels selective when you try to clamp down like that.

I agree about the drama here, but I actually don't like it overall, it might feel that I am being selective because there's a few people here that are constantly bringing it up... but believe me, I find it as silly as "crotch-gate" or "bios-gate"...

I don't wish the continue with this conversation, I didn't want to have it. I don't do dirty laundry but given I was personally effected too along with others I could mention, (not just emiliano) I am going to take exception to your so called "neutrality".

It's OK dude, we don't have to agree on this, again, my whole point always has been the silliness of asking fans to take sides on something that's a private matter and should've been treated as so. And furthermore, it's totally irrelevant to MOTU itself! :

This thread is mostly left on it's own, mod won't come here unless there's a riot...

I like the concept dude!! !
