    I like the idea of re-doing the 2nd line of MOTU figures so the Optik rules. That 2nd line SUCKED but had some solid ideas. The 3rd line was the worst (fake anime style.) I just bought 4 original figures w/weapons with no paint wear for $10, I love thrift stores!

    Some of it was crap, but there were some serious gems in there. The Trap Jaw, for instance, was absolutely amazing. Man-E-Faces...great. Two-Bad...now that sucked. And, of course, the main He-Man and Skeletor figures were meh...

    I actually dug the (third) cartoon. The backstory they added to the mostly-freak-show characters of MotU was pretty hot.

    I picked up the staction of Snout Spout (c'mon...the fucking thing looks like Ganesh!). Love it...but I'd prefer an actual *action* figure...

    Hopefully, we'll see a MotUC based on it like with Hordak.

    Here's an image of a virtual mockup of a custom Horde Trooper that someone did based upon that Snout Spout staction. He was going to do produce this thing on a 3-D printer, but I don't think that anything ever became of it.

    Damn...pretty inventive...but a little too much artistic license for me. I'd rather wait for a MotUC Horde Trooper.

    I was pumped about them. Anyone got an extra Mekaneck armor or club sitting around?

    Picked this bank up at Target for 10 bucks, the eye lights up and it has a weird voice, I like to buy any creepy toys I find, maybe they will start making more. Fizz n FInd had cool halloween toys with zombies too.

    Oddly, I've never seen any of the movies. Although people have told me that they're pretty good.

    Is that thing a made-up toy or real toy?

    Sorry - These are made out of wood, I tried to get some good pics but they all came out super shitty.
    I went to have fun with my kids Bakugan instead..

    What "details" do you need? I mean, they're interlocking (well...inter-balancing) panels of wood that are painted real sweet. They have other such stacking toys like robots and creepy clowns.

    But you know what are some of the most bitchin' non-vinyl American toys out right now? The fucking Hasbro Snake Eyes/Stormshadow foam swords from the recent movie. Holy fuck, these things are fun as shit! I've messed around with the other Nerf N-Strike swords (and axe) before...but they're kinda meh. These are actually two-handed and well-balanced so you can swing hard and whoop the shit outta your buddies! So good...

    I know this probably won't be for everyone but I recently picked up the Big Daddy Bouncer from NECA and I love it. It's a lot of toy for $20.00.

    Oh, huh, the Bill Ding stuff is still around. My parents gave me a set of the clowns as a gift a few years back "because you collect toys." ;P

    Well, I have to say I didn't read your response to that, so it was not reading comprehension thing. It's more like I felt so excited that I need to post my message without reading the messages after the one I quoted.
