Vintage MOTU 3-packs

[Captain Atkin]

How many of you here collected the MOTU 3-packs / gift sets backs in the 80s?

I never saw or remember seeing these before, I only remember the Battle-Cat/He-Man and the Panthor/Skeletor packages...

Curious to know if someone does have them in Canadian release.
If yes I would be highly interested in.

I don't get the sense though, each has 3 of the same faction. Who's gonna battle? Or do the packs come with a mini scrabble game they can play? :P

These were released as gift sets, and were popular at Christmas in department stores in Canada. Some where released in the US.

Some packs just had villains, while others just had heroes. The idea behind that, I am sure, was to get parents to buy more than one pack. There were also some that had a mix, like the Hordak, Sy-Clone, Roboto pack, and the Battle Armor He-Man, B.A. Skeletor, Orko pack.





Most of the packs came with a mini-comic.

Interesting, were they released in a specific year?

[Captain Atkin]

One of the packages says 5th anniversary. As I recall, it was around that time I started seeing all of them. It was a good way to refresh the older characters.

Those are something you cherish if you own them.......
