MOTU/POP Acquisitions

[Sky Shadow]

How'd you go quality wise? I'm afraid to get one after some of the horror stories going around!

Mine's great and pretty cool - joints are good; the cogs all work; weapons clip on and off nicely. Everyone's complaining about the shoulders being backwards, but it doesn't really make a difference. I had to boil a few pieces back into shape, but that's par for the course by now and no trouble. If I had to make a complaint it would be that it's so faithful that it doesn't really feel like I have a new toy, just a slightly more poseable vintage one.

That's how I feel about the MOTUC line in general. However the line is releasing characters that never had updated toys or no toys at all. I am liking that a lot just frustrated that they are not in scale with 200x figures, specially the human characters.

Here are my acquisitions from the fair and the past week:

My first MOTUC figures! & Captain Randor



Snake Men



Hordak and The Evil Horde



Stactions



I can now finally conclude the duel between Captain Randor and Keldor with the correct figure!



Th paint jobs on those stactions is simply amazing, specially on the Snake men and Leech. A real shame that Mattel "retired" the style. Grizzor and his fur are freaking awesome! He looks cute at the same time as menacing! packed with weapons too.

...Everyone's complaining about the shoulders being backwards, but it doesn't really make a difference...

It certainly made a difference to me. I cracked the figure and fixed the shoulders, it's a pity that mine was reasonably well glued, still very happy with the result.

My latest MOTU additions:



Thanks to Sharky for the Slime Pit, Beastman and Whiplash.

I cant get my eyes off all that re-ish goodness in the background.

A fairly spontaneous loot:

What the...? Where did those come from? I told you you might be headed into another dangerous collecting addiction - do we need to get you MOTU patches?

My name is kup and I am a motuholic...

Yeah I am feeling a bit guilty because I have spend so much on toys in a short amount of time but I couldn't pass this up!

A local guy at He-Man.org offered this bunch at $26ea and I knew that I couldn't say no I picked them up today during lunch time. He had several others for sale but I held back as I was already feeling guilty from Sunday.

Anyway my next money cycle is coming along and although It will still allow for a bit of toy funds (I have another bargain lined up), I should take it easy.
