Title: Dude, new He-Man action figures
Post by: Troglodyte on September 24, 2002, 04:40:43 PM
If y\'al haven\'t been watching Cartoon Network at 6:00pm on Fridays, then you\'ve been missing out on the best re-make in history.

That\'s right! HE-MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude, it\'s great to re-live my favorite cartoon favorits in a fresh new style.

And as an added bonus ALL NEW ACTION FIGURES!

My mom threw away all my old one, this time they\'re all mine!

I just went out and bought:

He-Man

Other one\'s that are out now:
Merman
Stratos
Man-at-arms
Battle Cat
and Panthor

Plus a couple vehicles, Castle Gray Skull, and some talking figures.

I\'m gonna get a couple more from this set, but I can\'t wait for the Sorceress and Orko!!!!

Also Wal-Mart is actually selling the old original He-man figures that they( either Wal-Mart or Mattel) have over-stock of.

*No comment*

Do you actually still play with toys? I collect GIJOES for sentimental reasons, but I dont open them. Just wondering...

I don\'t "play" with them, but I\'m a tactile person, I set up a little action scene on top of my tv.  Leaving them in the box isn\'t any fun.


Oh, I saw one of those collector series, $70 for 5 figures, and they look horrible!  I\'ve forgotten how badly figurines were mass-produced back in the day.

They\'re pretty sweet, in my opinion, though the nothing compares to the older ones. You can get them in a box that says "for the adult collector" ..heh... Seriously though, they are great toys and a good way to relive your childhood. I need to pick \'em up, but all I\'ve seen around here is box set number two and I\'m wanting the first set of \'em also.

Oh and it was confirmed that the new and old series of He-Man is comin\' to DVD. Thank the good lord.

(P.S - Check out the new limited three issue of ThunderCat comics for more 80\'s childhood memories.)

All except for the original transformers. Any toy that can be thrown upside someone\'s head and cause severe head trauma is IMO quality work.

My god, his axe is a lot bigger than it used to be. I\'ve still got a few original he- man figures stashed away somewhere.
