Review > Moss Man (Masters of the Universe Classics)
After all the headaches (see here and here), Masters of the Universe Classics Moss Man has finally arrived–assuming you had a subscription or were able to order him in the first three minutes of sale on MattyCollector. Everyone else will have to wait until 2011 or hit eBay.
I never owned Moss Man as a kid, [...]
MOTU vs. DC 2-packs up (and gone) on Toysrus.com
TRU’s website briefly had both MOTU vs. DC 2-packs available on their website. They might come back in stock, so here are the links for future reference:
Superman vs. He-Man
Luthor vs. Skeletor
Note that the site uses incorrect, older stock images–in the actual sets Skeletor comes with a yellow sword, and Luthor does not have his gun.
Ask Mattel > March 15, 2010
1.) If the DC vs. MOTU packs sell well at Toys ‘R Us, would Mattel consider introducing more MOTUC product at retail?
At this point, at least in 2010, the MOTUC vs. DCUC two-packs will be the only way to find MOTU at retail.
2.) Given the immediate success of a larger MOTU item like Battle Cat, [...]
Happy Moss Man Day!
I get a nice break from the hell of ordering from Mattycollector this month, but for those of you who don’t, use this thread to document your experience.
Don’t forget that aside from the flocked ears/unflocked ears Moss Man, there’s also the Stratos reissue, DCUC 12 boxed set, and Movie Masters business suit Scarecrow.

Review > Battle Cat (Masters of the Universe Classics)
I don’t have the best history with Battle Cat.
When I was six years old, my cousin (who was also my childhood best friend) received a Battle Cat for his birthday. I didn’t have one yet, and being a selfish little brat, apparently, I sulked through the whole party about it. My parents learned their lesson, [...]
Ta-Torr, Heroic Master of Potatoes
PGPoA art director MechaShiva whipped (ha!) up this spud-tacular rendition of a MOTUC-ized Mr. Potato Head for PGPoA Power Pal PrfktTear. Totally tuberoid, dude. I’ll stop now.
MOTUC weapons pack priced at $12
Most of us thought the MOTUC weapons pack was going to be $15, but apparently it’s $12. I bet those $3 make a huge difference to the wafflers. I smell another sell-out.
They’ve also added a page for Evil-lyn and pushed the sale back to April 19.
She-Ra packaging reveal
Mattel unveiled She-Ra’s packaging on their Facebook page yesterday.
Here’s the bio:
Channeling the combined Power of the Universe and the Wisdom of the Elders of Eternia, Adora transforms into She-Ra, the most powerful woman in the Universe. Her strength comes not from brute force but from sheer will and her cunning magical powers and healing abilities. [...]
Eldor prototype card-back revealed
Hollywood Heroes posted this great scoop on the He-Man.org forums–the prototype card back for Eldor. I’d kill for an Eldor in MOTUC (all fantasy realms need a bearded old wizard), so I hope this helps inspire Mattel to get around to him.
As some of you know I represent many former Mattel engineers and designers. We [...]
