      I got a He-Skeletor. They were listed as sold out for a few minutes, but now they are back up selling again.

        I think that's just a glitch when you login or the cache wasn't established yet in your device!... Now it's almost two hours since the sale started and he's still available!

            Hmm. Especially with this character between a quantity limit of three and a low production run an expected outcome.

            a) He's just a lame repaint for the most part.
            b) Probably most collectors don't care for him, or never heard of him... And some might have mistaken him for a redecorated Faker!

            I'm even surprised that he sold out in less than a day, let alone in less than 5 hours!

          Congratulations to those that got him. Especially congrats to the German fans. I didn't mind this as a MC Exclusive because it's mostly a repaint and not really a must have. I hope they continue the trend moving forward on MC. In time, I'd like to see other repaints truthfully. Something like this...

            Monochromatic/Cyberpunkish re-colored characters would be awesome, but that requires a special sub-line for those to be appreciated enough by some art savvy collectors like I am.

            I wonder if such redecorated figures would be popular enough for Mattel to dive in without charging us premium prices for them!

              Not sure if they'd be popular enough but we've never gotten that Faker officially. They have that mold already in Origins of 200x He-Man plus I guess Teela & Duncan.

              The one i'd really like to see is Buzz-Off but I'm not sure if Origins is 200x enough. What we do have though would still look cool in that color scheme IMO. Call him Buzz-Kill.

            I don't know if you realize it or not but they're just inverted colors to make other Faker characters...

              BTW, if you look at He-Skeletor's card art you'd notice the recolored BC and I think it's called Battle Panthor (not sure if this is the official name though!), similar in concept of what Andy is proposing:

                I'm pretty sure Emiliano drew that cover for graham cracker comics and Val just colored it but no names were actually given. I did a mock up of origins with the names I could remember using, plus some new ones..

                  Those are some funky looking colors. Looks like some kind of black lite poster.

                  Yeah Wun Dar and Grizzlor have almost passed the 7 months waiting time already. Good that I got lucky enough to get the earlier batches of each character. Still waiting for the second batches just in case they have variant colors or packaging art!

                Midor, I was bored and messing around but some of them look really cool to me. Clawful, the Horde, and LoP Beastman especially

                    Congrats, that was fast for you. Mine won’t be here before the end of next week (I’m guessing)

                    Are you pleased with him?

                      I just got my 2 He-Skeletors surprisingly 3-4 faster than what I've predicted... And his blue tinted plastic is a little moretealish than the norm in person, so basically his body color won't match Keldor's head from the Rise of Evil 2 pack Target exclusive!

                      I also got today my 200X Randor and 2 of the Snake Troopers from Amazon! I still have a bunch waiting to ship from them, and another bunch in my POL over at BBTS!

                        Let's hope it's more than just Snake Mountain related, some rumors speculate on the 40th anniversary Skeletor, and/or a MC 4 Skeletors pack exclusive... I just hope for more vehicle announcement as well.

                          Eternia update?

                          The 4 Skeletors? Sounds like a barber shop quartet that tours the country during October singing "scary" songs.

                          vintage, NA, 2002, Kevin Smith version?

                          Another create-a-character contest?

                          Be a brand manager for the day contest.

                          Scott is back with the company (saying that just to troll you guys)

                          A la sun man another line/is brought into the He-Man line/lore/mythos

                          cross over with Transformers

                          Cross over with My Little Pony

                          Cross over with Archie.

                            Haha, that was funny... But yes, the 4 Skeletors TV pack could be a possibility!

                              OKOKOKOKOK!. OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH KKKKKKKKKKKKKKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY YYYY!

                              Tried not to say something but here it goes.

                              Let me split some hairs and play devil's advocate. Maybe some paralysis by analysis sprinkled in. With 2 cups over thinking tossed in for good measure.

                              And yet I could easily be wrong but I'm still going to say it.

                              Not hearing the logic or reasoning behind it a figure, special or not, or a multi-pack I don't think it's either of those ideas/concepts.

                              If was one of those we'd have one of those dollar sign notices like we have been getting. It honestly doesn't make sense to me if you DON'T use it.

                              The best and only way to reveal a 4 pack or a special figure is a con, a panel or surprise pop up video.

                              And on top of that you keep it on the down low.

                              That is why I think it could be MAYBE an Eternia update. SURPISE! An unexpected update.

                              Same with a Snake Mountain.

                              My long shots and/or left field thoughts
                              Another anniversary create a character-a-character contest. My logic/reasoning: Origins and Masterverse are each combining all the lore and history and whatnot right? Why not the create-a-character contest?

                              Remember the 80's create-a-figure with G.I. Joe? Steel Brigade or something like that. YAH! That.

                              Build a figure. I've said before and I'll keep on saying it. Give us buckets of "spare" parts (in the vein of Modulok and Multi-Bot) to allow us to make our own hero/villain/character/figure

                              As sarcasm I said cross over with Archie, My Little Pony and Transformers because Who hasn't?!?! WHY NOT?!?!?! Everyone else is. Still a slight possibility.

                              Bring in another toyline into the lore/mythos/history/multiverse/whatever. Two options. Make a new one or bring one in. Don't know what that could be. Don't want to do the research.

                                  Catching up on things. Just skimmed through that. That seems wild. I would use "wild" over "big", 'huge" or "monumental".

                                Wish it was just a vision or fever dream. It was just half ACE pull and wild long shot with a dash of sarcasm.

                                      Pixel-Dan has a “shilling” video about the Snake Mountain launch event:





                                      And here are the coupe of promo videos from Mattel separately by AdultCollector:





                                      Now, Mattel Creations has added a link to the Snake Mountain drop page:

                                      This Masters of the Universe Origins playset is inspired by the Snake Mountain lair in the Dark Hemisphere of Eternia.

                                        Yeah it seems like AdultCollector wants people to directly click on his videos… I just added Pixel-Dan’s video on top.
