MOTU stuff is cool,
Original MOCS go for daft money on eBay, even the 2002 runs are £40 ish
I bought 3 of these about 2 years ago in a home bargain shop for £2 each

However not any different from SW when it comes to ebay stupidity on vintage

Probably just me but I always thought He-Man and MOTU was a bit bent. All the shirts off, muscles and pants and all that ****

Yeah even Skeletor and co have huge muscles etc.............why?

The female characters are more normal in proportion though and I do like Twistoid and Rotar who are slightly different to the musclebound crew.
 
They are cool, gotta say that - I collected them as a kid when Star Wars was fading in popularity. Had most of the early figures, with Teela and Trap Jaw being really hard to find.


Fave figure has to be Ninjor 8) Never had him as a kid being one of the last figures to be released.
 
Love the he man faker as well that was cool

Tytus and megator are apparently the rarest, and the laser he man and skeletor

Got to admit, I loved watching the original series when the lad was young

Not SW I know, but the figs are cool
 
Tytus and Megator, are proper hard to find. Released in wave 6 in 1986. Much like SW, it's the accessories and weapons which demand the money. You should be able to pick a Ninjor up for £10, but find one with his nunchucks.................

The He-man gay thing was just a front. I bet he was poking Teela!

The muscles seemed to be the trend anbd lasted a while. I think the popularity of WWF and BA from the A-team may have influenced folk

I loved trap jaw - his arm fell off xmas day 84 on mine - was this common? - will look into those rare characters :)
 
Found this fella under my desk if anyone wants him in exchange for a beater(s)
Also under there somewhere is an old battered Ram Man too

So Gay....

That list is just someone's uneducated opinion.

Yak face ain't rare we all know that.

In fact try finding a MOC Spinnerella from the Princess of Power range, she is rarer than all the vintage MOTU figures, maybe not so highly desirable although she can command well over £1000. Just food for thought.

Hey Mike

Not your fault mate :wink:

Tytus and Megator are rare, as I think they were only released in Italy as were Laser Light Skeletor and Laser Power He-man. But these can be found quite readily on E-bay albeit at a price. Try finding a MOC Spinnerella - practically impossible, also a MOC Bubble Power She Ra again impossible. Again it is to do with distribution these MOC's were produced right at the end of the line as it was being cancelled so very few made it to the shelves.

My point was Yak Face should not be on the list at all - he is not ridiculously rare

Love that film Mike - wonder if its out in Blu ray :?

DVD only by the looks of it
 
Doubt it , which is a shame.

Produced by George Pal, who famously did the original war of the worlds, so that would prob get the b ray treatment first.

Which nicely keeps me on topic :wink:

We're there any figs, ships etc ever released for films like war of the worlds?

Robby the robot is a cool piece, saw one in a collectables shop recently boxed, but was around £200 ish

He Man characters had dodgy names. Ram Man, Fisto and Stinkor anyone?
 
Well

The postman arrived today with this little lot

Now what I must say is that a very generous gentleman I purchased a battlecat from, very cheaply I may add, contacted me and asked if I wanted some free he man stuff , as my lad is collecting and I have pulled some stuff together for his b day.

The free stuff is below and, the figures were thrown in as well. :shock:

I am sure the kind gentleman will not mind me saying this but he has also said dont worry about the postage :!:

I really wanted to point out, that in these days, it is seldom that you come across true genuine people, I would like to say that Neil Jackabina is one such genuine guy, I can't thank you enough Neil for your generous gift here, I apologise if you had rather me not put this out there, but I think you should be congratulated for being the type of guy you are.

I'm a great believer in good turns and believe me mate, only good comes from doing good

Thankyou again mate, my lad will be over the moon with this :D
