    Can someone add a third choice? Something like "zzzzzzzzz, I would have never noticed the difference if everybody didn't talk about it all the time."

    I didn't really care about the sign on his chest. I was happy that it was just He-Man. Be it cross, *, or a fancy "H".

    But mess with The Superman Logo and I'll go postal!

    Anyway, but having heard Mattel's reason behind it. The matter is really done with. Unless Mattel will issue a variant of the new Classics version with the cross. Then maybe to satisfy both sides. Maybe include it as an accessory?

    But the cross does look better!

    Like most, I say the cross. Actually, my favorite version was the original 4H cross, with the crack through the middle of the top arm. That was awesome, but the H/* has got to go, IMO.

    I think giving the H/Asterisk to King Grayskull & letting He-Man have his cross was the only right decision - no doubt about that. Otherwise It wouldn't be "CLASSIC" He-Man!

    Cross.

    It's He-Man's symbol. Every time I see a cross shaped like that, I think of He-Man.

    Hey, Hey! don't call us guilty for that!
    We didn't came up with the new symbol, it was Mattel all the time

    Well we got the cross. End of story surely?

    Cross, but I'm not against the possibility of a repaint down the road in 200X colors with the newer symbol. Especially if he came with a Classics version of the 200X sword and the Bio paid props to the 4HM's original take on the line...
    Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti

    I see absolutely no reason to put any crosses on my 'NA' Classics He-Man. There's the mix of 'H' and 'M' letter for that.

    Hey, you asked ANY He-Man figure.

    Agreed, that's pretty much what I was going to say too.

    Of course Iron Cross. That's He-Man. That alone makes Classic New Adventures He-Man perfect.

    Mind you, technically speaking I think He-Man's H symbol from Thunder PUnch, Battle Armour, Flying Fists is perhaps his best symbol, but it lacks the instant recognition factor, if He-Man has any "Instant" recognition from the general public. But if a symbol of his is iconic, it's that Cross.

    Keep it.

    Definately not the asterix from 200x. classic H if anything else.

    Whatever respective symbol was on their vintage counterpart. It might look kind of lame, but I want that Grayskull/200X asterisk on Snake Armor He-Man.

    And the Battle Armor/Thunder Punch 'H' was was the coolest.

    Please go back to the cross. The asterisk was just goofy in my opinion.

    Recent....Blade
    Coming....Scorpia & Battle Lion
    Wanted....Entrapa, Double Trouble, Light Hope, (A real) Filmation Hordak & Clawful
    Considering....
    Needed....Dragstor

    Oh man, did I forget to use these [sarcasm][/sarcasm] again? Sorry....
