Review > Snake Face (Masters of the Universe Classics)

Mattel’s April Masters of the Universe Classics figure is Snake Face, the Medusa-esque lieutenant of King Hsss! If you weren’t a subscriber and didn’t want to risk Matty’s awful hassle-filled site, this is the time when you’d be deciding if you want him. As one of the Snake Men, Snake Face is a serpentine monster [...]

Call for Help Completing My MOTUC Reviews

As I mentioned a while back, I’m now officially a cherry picker on Masters of the Universe Classics. This includes selling off some of the figures I don’t want as they arrive from this year’s subscription. In addition, my interest in MOTUC has, not waned per se, but become more moderated, so that I’ve even [...]

A Poester’s Alternate Review of He-Man & the Masters of the Universe #1

Poester DB sends along this dissenting opinion to my review of the first issue of DC’s He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. (Warning: contains spoilers for the entire miniseries.) I am going to have to disagree with you on this one, Poe. I read tons of comics nowadays, and have read all of these with [...]

Review > Fang Man (Masters of the Universe Classics, Mattel)

As I discussed a few weeks back, I’ve effectually become a cherry-picker on MOTUC (I plan to sell the figures I don’t want). But one figure I always knew I’d hang on to since the minute he was revealed was Fang Man. He’s a member of the Evil Warriors, which makes him a keeper right [...]

Comic Review > He-Man and the Masters of the Universe #1 (DC Comics)

A good piece of advice for living one’s life in general is, “If you haven’t anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.” There are many blogs and websites that would immediately vanish into the ether were their authors to subscribe to this philosophy. However, in general I have always tried to be as [...]

Poe Totally Missed This > He-Man and the Masters of the Universe Getting an Ongoing Comic

I’ve been meaning to write up my thoughts on the DC Comics MOTU miniseries, but in the meantime the series evidently did well enough to score an ongoing title. This news broke over two months ago, but I’m rather out of the MOTU loop…plus I haven’t enjoyed the new series much. Anyway, the first issue [...]

Castle Grayskull > Blueprints vs. Prototype

He-Man.org member DJ Force made the above visual comparison between the size of Castle Grayskull as it was shown in the blueprints provided at last year’s NYCC and the size of the castle as it stands now. Based on the measurements Scott took on video, it’s downscaled by a good 11.8% from the blueprints. Which, [...]
