Holy holy nerdgasm! :eek::eek::eek:
Check out this vid here...
Highlights... um, just about everything! But here goes...
- Swamp Thing looks amazing - esp with the internal articulation. It's all hidden inside - awesome! I like the biodegradable mask too.
- GL's Kilowog looks super cool!
- Giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man :eek::eek: with diorama - me can't wait!
- Small articulated Voltron (from 80s cartoon) with voice chip is crazy cool! Go Peter Cullen :p
- And if you pause the vid at .37 you can see Queen Marlena and Cringer from MOTUC. :eek:
The Marlena Glenn to Queen Marlena transformation is clever. I also love the Polly Pocket Frosta, Catra and She-Ra: http://www.he-man.org/assets/images/...73141_full.jpg
Pics Pics Pics...
Marlena looks great and the BTTF Box looks intriguing...
My God. There is SO much want here. Mostly Queen Marlena. And I LOVE Polly Pocket She-Ra's Chrome Tiara and Weapons!
Stay Puft is huge.....i want it
I like the back to the future box :)
I hear that man! - I love that guy as he is the least threatening thing I can think of! :p:DQuote:

I wish that I could say that I like Queen Marlena..
I really like how they have included the space suit and the Royal dress (although it kind of makes her look fat) but one of my pet peeves from the Filmation cartoon was that Adam's mom was a lost astranaut from Earth - I really hated that and still do, so this toy doesn't do much for me :(
An awesome toy but only for fans of that Filmation concept. :o
Gringer is cool in a goofy way but not worth getting unless he were stand alone.
I hope that a 200X variation is released at some point.
You got something against Earthlings kup?:p:pQuote:

Luckily I never saw that as a kid.Quote:

I think I prefer the toons version, the comics version looks like a DC superhero reject... if they ever made a SDF type Heman toys I think it would be awesome and might look something like these.... bought on sight for me :D:D

That is brilliant - I grinned the whole time. :DQuote:

Except for some strange reason her MOTUC Real name IS "Evelyn Morgan Powers" rather than something like "Lyn of Zalesia".
It's called mediocre writing - Toyguru style.Quote:

That was awesome! It even had a typical 80s cartoon ending in which somebody says a lame joke and everyone laughs! :DQuote:

It's not a new name at all, but it was never known because it was only ever used in the Series Bible. It was never used on the show, but it was there all along.Quote:

Reminds me of this...Quote:
