Do you wanna see Lt. Andra in the new line?

**danielsan52** · April 30, 2008, 12:16am

Would you like for Lt. Andra to get a figure in Classics?

**Killian** · April 30, 2008, 04:29am

Who? You gotta post a pic or reference for an obscure character hardly anyone's heard of..

**Dagar** · April 30, 2008, 04:49am

I don't understand the need to have a poll dedicated to such an inconsequential character.

**Mike Bock** · April 30, 2008, 05:01am

To be honest I have no idea who she is?

**Predabot** · April 30, 2008, 05:04am

No more obscure than that General Sunder guy that I've never heard of until a few months ago, and I still don't really know who he is.

Lt. Andra is a fresh new Lt. of the Palace Guard, she was basically replacing Teela as Prince Adam's bodyguard, so that Teela could focus more on her duties as Captain of said Guard.

She is a character from the legendary Star Comics.

**Mike Bock** · April 30, 2008, 05:06am

Oh interesting! Thanks for the info Predabot!

**Killian** · April 30, 2008, 05:27am

She looks like the Mara prototype figure from NA that you could see on the org at one point a few years back...

**Rook** · May 1, 2008, 10:53am

Why not just use Adora in that role?

**Predabot** · May 1, 2008, 12:14pm

Uh..? That doesn't strike me as something that makes sense... Seeing as Adora's main position is on another Planet... called Etheria.

And why would Adora be a Lt. in the Palace Guard? Seeing as she's the Princess.

It seems like the fandom is somewhat torn on this issue, sad really, things were going so well in this poll.

**danielsan52** · May 1, 2008, 06:19pm

Here she is on the Fan-Art page

**Megalodon** · May 1, 2008, 06:34pm

And never heard of General Sunder?

I think the cartoon is more cannon than the comics.

**LORD FALLEN ELDOR** · May 1, 2008, 09:05pm

I want her about as much as I want Songster

That said, If Mattel made her Yes i would buy her

My point is that the character doesn't make a alot of sense or add anything new to the series. Adam's bodyguard? That's Teela's job. Blonde chick fighting the Horde? That's Adora's job. Why do we need Andra?

Second, she has a boring design. I can overlook uselessness if a character is striking (I like the Sorceress, after all, and all she does is sit in her castle and call He-Man when she needs anything done

)

Third, does she have any powers to compensate for lack of purpose or design? Because based on that panel, it doesn't look like it.

Basically, what I'm getting down to is, if she was made into a toy, why should I consider buying her, and what does she offer to the franchise to justify a spot?

**Predabot** · May 2, 2008, 05:02am

Well, not every masters-character have powers, and as far as I know Andra does not.

Well, I think the character makes sense, as it gives room for Teela to develop into more than Adams bodyguard. And the design? Well, several of the artists on this board has shown that the design can look great when tweaked with a new vision.

I think she'd look great in the new toyline.

**Killian** · May 2, 2008, 05:19am

Since I still don't like the idea of Teela getting into Adam's furry pants, I'll take any new female (or even male) character that may be a potential love interest.

**motu77** · May 2, 2008, 07:59pm

Nope, they need to worry about other characters first.

**Orko's Magic Hat** · May 3, 2008, 12:57pm

Yeh, why not? we need more females and if Mattel are going to go with really obscure characters to spice up the line say 10-12 waves down, then I'm all for her getting a figure.

**evil-lyn167** · May 3, 2008, 01:47pm

I think it would be great if Lt. Andra could be in new movie. More powerful women with Teela, Sorceress, Evil-Lyn & Queen Marlena!!!

**Adam_Prince of Eternia** · May 4, 2008, 03:08pm

I would like to see Lt. Andra . . . become a casualty! If it is necessary to the plot for a character to die, let it be an superfluous character like Lt. Andra.

**DC_WARLORD** · May 4, 2008, 03:49pm

She's wearing a somewhat skimpy outfit, she's a bodyguard, and she's armed with a laser pistol and a sword... I like her!: hmgrin:

Seriously, I'd buy her. I'm always about secondary characters.

**JafariStew** · May 4, 2008, 03:55pm

I'll take her as a Mara repaint...

But Andra isn;t a secondary character. She's not even a tertiary character. She's like on the same level as Goatman, except that Goatman actually looks cool and would be a great toy!

I see what you're saying, but I have a kind of STAR WARS mentallity to this whole thing. I'd like to see as many characters made as possible. I only buy the ones I want, and there's always somebody else out there who wants the characters that I'm not interested in, and vise versa.

But I do have to admit that I only bought a few issues of the STAR COMICS HE-MAN, and I hated them. They seemed too 'kiddy' for me. I'm not saying I'm an intellectual giant, but I found no entertainment in them whatsoever.

This is exactly my reasoning for creating this poll. I think if the new line is to succeed, It need some fresh different characters(i.e. Star Wars). I really don't want to buy the same exact characters all over again that I did in 2002. I mean, I probably will, but new figures based on characters in the whole MOTU universe would be more exciting.

I'd totally buy a Cosmic Enforcers wave, a Goat Man, Strobo, etc.

It's a real shame we cant get a Lord Masque or Shikoti.

**Predabot** · June 22, 2008, 07:17am

Damn... the poll was going exactly the way it should, until recently. The lead is getting eaten up..!

Maybe people would be more appreciative of Andra if she had a more defining sort of potential action-feature? Like, perhaps sounds and lights from a radio back-pack, for a rifle and head-set?

Just throwing that out there.
