Don't give this idiot clicks. Make him get a real goddamn job.Not every beast is tender, especially if there is genius in his making. -
If you nominate someone else who does better reviews on You-Tube early, I won't mind ditching Dan's reviews all together...Originally posted by Dark Angel View PostComment

Ninjor looks way better than I thought he was going to look after I saw the Matty pictures posted last week. I think Ninjor is one of the best figures in the line.“We change people through conversation, not through censorship." ― Jay ZComment

Ninjor turned out great. Him and Jitsu look great together as martial arts warriors. I don't like the Horde agent part of his bio, but I will ignore that silliness

MOTU is known for hyphenated, 'stylized' names, Man-E-Faces, Ram-Man, Clamp-Champ, Mekanek, couldn't Mattel have just called him Nin-Jorr? Or did that not pop into the minds of anyone on their crack creative team.
Some idiot approved slapping "Dawg-O-Tor" on a package, which is easily the worst name I've seen attached to MOTUC, and no one could have cooked up this? Does it bother me? Not in the least. Is it another glaring example of their creative ineptitude? Yes.
Nin-Jorr turned out lovely. I'll be picking him up.Last edited by Guest; 02-05-2015, 06:03 AM.Comment

You got that right, whoever came up with that dumb name is an embarrassment to the MOTU brand... -
Well according to someone at He-Man.org, "Dawg-O-Tor" came from someone's "Dawg" nickname, which honestly, just makes it worse. It in no way is a reflection of the character and its history (if it even had any) and is just another example of a few people involved in the creative process jamming their own poorly thought out ideas into the mythos.

I agree with everyone here thus far, and I think I need to get an extra one for the second head and for Jitsu's sash/belt.Comment

Probably not. Power Rangers apparently has held on to 'Ninjor' as trademarked, and as I understand trademark regulation, you can't get away with a name that's too close to a trademark in the same field. Slight spelling or punctuation changes aren't enough to get around this.Originally posted by Sky Runner View Post

NINJOR !!!!!!!
Amazing figure and great review! I really love how this action figure turned out!

I definitely like him and as pointed out a little saddened they did the belt brown, although I guess they should've tried to match his quiver then I could see it. Glad they snuck in the Jitsu belt and as for the other head it can sure make a great custom Gar character repainted... or any other Evil villain. Also shame about the chain on the nun-chucks...Comment
-
The figure looks great, but those chucks and bow have all the quality of a bootleg of a knock-off of a crummy toy. The chucks can probably be salvaged by chopping off the ****tarded chain-pillar, poking holes in the ends of the handles, and attaching a real chain, but that bow is an absolute embarrassment. No salvaging that. I'll have to fabricate my own bow from scratch.Comment

Once again, if you support Pixel Scam, you are supporting the ORG. This dude sold his integrity for some free product. Plus, he actually like Scott Neitlich and defends him.

Dan is a good guy and has done nothing wrong. If his videos happen to not be your 'cup of tea,' that's one thing... but beyond that, if you have a problem with him, then you're the problem.Last edited by Dynamo of Eternia; 02-06-2015, 10:19 AM.Comment

I guess I am the problem then. Dan is personally responsible for where we are at today, along with Val and his Org minions. -
You are just grasping at straws trying to spew more anger around. What has he done wrong? Reviewed some figures? Yeah, that's detrimental to the line and everything else! (Sarcasm). Dan does decent reviews, and he will point out issues, problems, and imperfections when he notices them, but he still has a generally upbeat positive attitude. There is nothing wrong with that.
You see him as "part of the problem" because he is generally positive. And when he does see a minor imperfection or point of criticism on a figure in one of his reviews, he doesn't react by going into an intense rage, throwing the figure against the wall, and cursing Mattel and Scott's names... which is pretty much what you and a few others around here would expect him to do in order to not crap on him like you are now and consider him part of the supposed "solution."
You need to reevaluate your attitude and everything you hold to be true regarding this overall subject if you are seriously pointing fingers at Dan of all people. You couldn't be more off-base than you are right now. Period. End of story.Last edited by Dynamo of Eternia; 02-13-2015, 05:05 PM.

If someone here can step up and conducts some real constructive MOTUC video reviews in a similar manner and professionalism (Even if they were late), he might overshadow Pixel-Dan's work, until then, let's enjoy what we got...Comment

Some people like Dan's videos, some don't. I don't think Dan is doing anything "wrong" with his videos. His 1980's drama class announcer voice is corny, and I think that sets people off after decades of mass media crap- it comes off disingenuous. I am not sure why people expect journalistic integrity from a dude on YouTube who is a former amateur pro wrestler, where putting on a show and falseness is par for the course; yet give so many other sites that do "1st looks (don't call it a review)" a pass as "real fans" when it's all 100% shill.
But not liking someone and claiming their doing the wrong thing by the audiences is 2 different things. If someone can provide evidence or even an example of Dan doing the wrong thing, I'll listen. And no, him liking something you don't like doesn't count, I feel like there are much worse fish to fry out there.
This was my first PD video in years. Ninjor looks good.
Second the call for more professional high quality MOTUC videos. Jukka, Eatock and Dan all do good stuff, but new blood is welcome. I have offered others to help their videos and podcasts (I do voice-over/ a/v work for a day job) but got turned down.“What is freedom of expression?

I haven't watched the review. not going to. no interest.
But I did finally read the bio. Interesting.Comment
-
The bio is amatuer at best. "A spell of light" is something you'd expect a wizard to use in a dark forest to lead some gnomes to safety. If you're going to summon a ninja from one dimension to another, I think that would call for something greater than an enchanted candle. Hee hee.
The bios may offer up different perspectives on characters, but they are terribly written. You can't deny that. Allow me to offer up something different.Last edited by Guest; 02-12-2015, 03:09 AM.

"The half-Eternian, half-demon master of hand-to-hand combat, Nin-Jorr, belongs to nearly forgotten clan of assassins, which dwell in the shadowy East of the Sea of Rakkash, devoted to black sorcery and lethal martial arts, their strange sacraficial culture and occult practices are shamed by the people of Anwat Gar in which they share a common ancestry. Transported to Snake Mountain by a powerful spell, Nin-Jorr was enslaved by Skeletor's magic, and bonded to serve his new master's will.
During the Second Ultimate Battleground, Skeletor dispatched Nin-Jorr to kill King Randor while He-Man and the defenders were entangled in combat with his own monsterous forces. Fortunately for the king, Nin-Jorr was defeated with the help of Queen Marlena, and the powerful Roboto, whose keen sensors were able to detect the invading ninja warrior, before he was able to carry out his murderous task. Unfortuantely their victory came not without the loss of some Randor's most trusted and loyal protectors, who gave their lives in his service, meeting their end at hands of this master of stealth, and his fearsome 'Dragon Talon' kick! Unmatched in combat and edged weapons.
Nin-Jorr carries out Skeletor's orders without question, striking down his enemies in secret and shadow. Even the mighty He-Man would be wary to fight this deadly fighter one on one."
Maybe no one will like mine any better, as I don't tie him into Horde Prime, but its certainly better written, and I cooked this up in 3 min. Oh BTW, his mysterious clan with its demonic priests, draws the power they infuse their warriors with from Horde Prime.

I like the idea that Ninjor might be serving someone other then Skeletor. So many of his lackeys are disloyal, but none are secretly loyal to anyone else. Nobody is actively sabotaging Skeletor or playing double agent. I'd prefer if it was Hordak though instead of Horde Prime or even some of the fan theorized Unnamed One or somebody else entirely like The Great Black WIzard. I would even make that him serving a dark lord tie into his demonic appearance, that he is demonically possessed in-order to control him or something like that?
Also, I want more ninja stuff in MOTU. I'm ready for some Big Trouble in Little Anwat Gar
