I mean, come on! I liked NA. I'd be curious to see how it'd map onto MOTUC. Who wouldn't be down for Butt-Head? I mean, come on!

I liked NA. I'd be curious to see how it'd map onto MOTUC.

I liked the NA designs (not as much as MOTU) and really enjoyed the UK comic. I few characters had different names over here. Flogg- Brakk Slushead- Kalimar Flipshot- Icarius Tuskador and Sagitar were very cool. I liked the NA designs (not as much as MOTU) and really enjoyed the UK comic.

i have to say he has a better than average chance of being made. whenever NA is discussed he is 1 of the top 3 always asked for outside of he-man/skeletor.

I've heard of many NA haters that they actually like this character, and he's a truly recognizable one ("hey, remember that dude with an eye for a head?"). I ain't sure though if he's really gonna be the first NA figure. I still think that Darius could be a good choice as well, whether as a regular figure or next year's SDCC Exclusive.

His arms and legs could be made out of the armored legs of Trapjaw. I suspect you could make Optikk out of some existing parts. His arms and legs could be made out of the armored legs of Trapjaw.

However, your provided photo makes me realize that I really want this figure to get made. Never had any NA figures as a kid, so I don't know anything about them.

This is probaby the only MOTUC figure I'd be willing to deal with all of mattels annoying crap for. I used to watch NA before school in the morning and while I never paid much attention, optikk always stood out. The only time it seemed like he ever talked was when he was off screen and you heard a random unidentifiable voice and figured well I guess that's optikk. And I'd think to myself how does he talk with no mouth? Dude I just called this in that Matty customer service thread moments before you posted this article!

Still, Optik is by far the coolest to come from the line. I think I would be happy with him and Slush Head. I think most of the designs that came from NA were pretty bad.
