I just bought two pages of original MOTU artwork from the early eighties!So excited! They're by Adrian Gonzales (who drew The Sunbird Legacy comic: http://www.he-man.org/publishing/item.php?id=464) and the story is a previously untold and unreleased origin of He-Man. I bought the beautiful pages 11 and 22:

I chose 11 because it's fully inked, announces that the capital of Eternia is called 'Monarch' and features Man-At-Arms, Battle Ram and the injured boy who will become He-Man (as well as foreboding dialogue and captions.) 22 is a gorgeous almost Roy Lichtensteinesque pencilled page of telling silence between He-Man and Teela.

Wow - this little ebay auction has caused quite a reaction in the fan community!!It's been very interesting reading all the comments in the past 24 hours.
I actually read the whole story early this morning myself. It's quite fascinating... wish they could have finished it! It's very, very intriguing. And the artwork is stunning!
Incidentally, the Sunbird Legacy is one of my absolute favourite MOTU stories!

Hurrah, my Teela and Zodak arrived today using the slow default international mail!! They look fantastic.
I have a spare Teela too for trading purposes. Anybody here do want? I still need MAA or Tri-Klops, but I don't want to pay for em, rather just straight trade.

Not yet. Don't stress - my Zodak hasn't arrived either and he was ordered the moment they went up on the 15th. And no doubt my subscription Teela will turn up even later.

I haven't received any Matty stuff yet!
But, I did manage to get about 24 of the Vintage Mini Comics from the Toyline the other day. I've been reading them before I go to sleep for the past few nights...
I definitely prefer the mini comics' origin stories over Filmation's.
