Trap Jaw
Although I missed the final four voting and would have voted for Skeletor.
Yes he has been doing it alphabetically for the match-ups.
Here is my vote.
ELITE EIGHT!!!
Battle Cat vs. He-Man Tigers are wild animals and should not be kept as pets and can turn on...
SWEET SIXTEEN!
Battle Cat eats Clawful (everyone knows cats are partial to seafood)
He-Man beats Fisto (after prying out his fist)
Man-At-Arms whips Jitsu (he is the master of weapons not just...
As has been said before we can no longer rely on peoples' memories we need hard evidence. To date the only promotion that has been confirmed that has tied Wonderbread with Masters of the Universe is...
ROUND TWO!
Battle Cat
BuzzOff
Fisto
He-Man
Jitsu
Man-At-Arms
MerMan
Moss Man
Panthor
I haven't given up either. Although I don't think the barbie comparison is accurate. With Barbie it was a known although rare example with examples of packaging and advertisement flyers for the...
If you are looking at pattern analysis I think a hoax pattern fits well. Consider that there may be as few as one legitimate made in a factory sample of Savage He-Man made for whatever purpose: give...
I think a possible link between Wonderbread and the Savage He-Man has been investigated to exhaustion without new evidence surfacing. You are right of course it is easier to apply a different paint...
I think that if Wonderbread requested a unique variation on the existing action figures available they would not have advertised the cards as the promotion but the figures themselves. Because the...
If possible go with the box art or who came packaged with the vehicle.
HE-MAN or Battle Armor HE-MAN on Battle Cat alternates Skeletor or Beast Man
Skeletor or Battle Armor Skeletor on Panthor...
It seems the salmon Mekaneck armor is from Mexico. I have no clue on the brown spear but my guess would be international variant.
Orange Mekaneck armor is from Stinkor. I have never seen a brown King Randor spear however I have seen several gold spears that when photographed appear brown.
Well you have already listed most of the variations I know of but maybe together we can piece together a list with help from some of the more knowledgeable members. Here is what I could find. I also...
Click the collecting tab and look at each figure it usually lists variations.
HE-MAN - shares head, waist, chest, arms, and legs with Faker, and Prince Adam. Shares head, arms, waist, and legs with Battle Armor HE-MAN and Flying Fist HE-MAN. Shares head, waist, and legs with...
Battle Cat and Panthor were both from reused molds from Mattel's Tarzan and the Jungle Cat which is a black panther and is the source of the 1976 date. The date is much larger than on the latter...

1982 Sears Christmas Catalog
...
They came with Trap Jaw and Tri-Klops in 1983 in the second Masters of the Universe wave of figures. They were cool and had a hinge with secret compartment.
...
I would love to believe a trusted friend as well, but at this point we cannot trust even our own memories. We need empirical proof by way of authenticated packaging (if the figure was mailed), dated...
Your dreadnok vehicles are on page 526 of the 1986 Sears Christmas Catalog:

Again if Savage He-man were from a catalog...
Sears Christmas 1985 catalog page 442 I am no GI*JOE expert but am pretty sure those are the vehicles you are referring to in the bottom right corner.

When I said:
I meant that I was the one who erroneously was relying on memory.
Sorry for the misunderstanding! I shouldn't have said "know" as there are no absolutes in this mystery. My last...
Shows what happens when you go off memory.
How's this?: We know that the coupon in the Fowler example was a legitimate Mattel mail in offer for a figure redemption for either Masters of the...
Some companies use a numeric code, some a barcode. I'll bet it still had the product information on the outside of the box to make sure the manufacturer was shipping the right product to the consumer...
Many existing examples of catalogs all through the 1980s exist for J.C.Penney and Sears and there is no mention of any mail offer regarding Masters of the Universe. Also Mattel used a standard print...
I agree by itself not having records is not conclusive proof that it did not exist hence the "and" in the sentence and the conjoined idea following.
There are plenty of people who do care and...
I also think it is a hoax, at least the origin of it part. For a decade there has surfaced zero proof as to where the toy has come from. The toy itself has not appeared prior to the 1990s and there...
Even if the name is Blood Falls I doubt that is blood. Angel Falls certainly doesn't have falling angels and Rainbow Falls is not a rainbow although the prismatic mist from the falls does create...
Maybe but the original trio of He-Men were Big Jim figures with modeling clay on them to beef them up. They might not have much of a refined look to them to make a decent figure out of as opposed to...
Roger Sweet in an interview with He-Man.de said that he has "beautiful color photographs of the three original He-Man figures of the He-Man Trio" used in the original pitch to Mattel executives in...
