Got it, thanks for the correction!

Photos from Larry Opiela, who was I believe the He-Man model for Filmation. Also did a bunch of public appearances as He-Man for Mattel

He only did public appearances. Here's a photo of the Filmation models:

What a nice surprise BR, awesome work on the blog bud, bookmarked.

[Battle Ram Man]

Thank you sir!

[Draego-Man]

Awesome blog, nice work!

[Andy]

me too bro! I have looked for a good scan of that for like ever. i think toyjesus had it one time but i was too late to the party.If i'm ever going to get permanent ink done, this i could live with.

[Battle Ram Man]

Thanks! Unfortunately I don't have a pic of the original art. I've looked everywhere but have found nothing but pics of the box, plus this shot. I think that Tokyonever (the guy behind Grayskull Museum) has the original art, which is how he is going to be able to eventually create a replica of that box. That is something I would definitely buy. It's one of my favorite pieces of box art.

Nice blog, keep it up!

Any chance you have the panthor/Skeletor picture by itself from this shot?



I want it as a tatt.

[Battle Ram Man]

In a similar vein I've started a blog that explores vintage figures and artwork:

Yeah, I'm going to need me some of these.
