MOTU/POP Acquisitions

Thanks!

It's also amazing how much a simple head change can make a huge difference to the toy's overall look. The Exclusive with Keldor and Skeletor heads look considerably different, almost like different toys altogether.

The Aussie dollar's doing well so I finally bought 200X Mekaneck on ebay.

Mekaneck is the only MOTU character that freaked me out as a kid (and even now :)). Too bad they never explained why he has a neck like that but to make it, they would of had to decapitate him first!

In the Filmation cartoon, Mekaneck's neck was injured in a storm and so Man-At-Arms (clearly a gifted brain surgeon) replaced it with a mechanical one.

Yeah I think I remember that episode but it still doesn't explain how it was done. Man-At-Arms not only must have been a gifted neural surgeon but also a great cardiologist and chiropractor too!

Man-At-Arms clearly has a Masters Degree in all those vocations hence why he is a Master of The Universe. It turns out Eternia has a really good education system.:p

My opera singing gorillagram arrived today:

I've wanted a Gygor since I first read about the prototype years ago. It's a shame MOTU Classics changed his allegiance to an "evil fighting gorilla" but I can still imagine him as an "evil-fighting gorilla". He is love.

lol He does look as if he is singing but overall he is pretty large and looks to be nicely painted.

is it just me or is it quite fitting that he is painted in green and yellow, and has turned up during the commonwealth games...

Now he may not be singing but enraged about having to swim in dirty pool water and street dogs pooping on his bed :p
