Maybe in a movie year.

I don't think the shins are from the run....since the calf is supposed to be the one piece Demo Man / Photog parts.

Goes to show they have spare parts lying around, or whoever gaffled the Randor parts from the Factory, forgot to grab the correct legs.

I love seeing these prototypes. Keep them coming!

Marvel characters never going to happen. I believe Hasbro owns the rights for Marvel toys.

Hasbro only recently obtained the marvel license. The first umpteen waves of marvel legends were Toy Biz, and Mattel DID have the marvel license in the 80s ala Secret Wars. It would not be so far fetched that the license could go to Mattel at some point in the future, but I would say more likely the license would go to Disney, given the relationship with Marvel, but I wouldn't say "never" to the proposition of Mattel getting back in the circle.

Wow Ram Man looks totally cool. I can't wait for January....

**Baena** · November 28, 2012, 01:57pm

Ramman's legs should be closer together no?

Mattel should hire this guy, he makes the figures look amazing in comparison to the official photos on the cardback...

Highly unlikely because currently Disney is trying to acquire Hasbro and as you may or may not know, they are becoming a juggernaut.

i believe the "hasbro" rumor was just that, a rumor. From TFW2005....

On the back of the recent rumors that talks were underway between Hasbro and Disney about a possible Disney buyout of Hasbro, the Providence Journal reports a spike in Hasbro share prices. More importantly, there is also the closest we are likely to get to an official comment on matters right now:

Hasbro declined comment [in the Disney purchase rumor], citing its policy of not talking about rumor or speculation. CNBC analyst David Faber reported that Hasbro's advisors told him there's "absolutely nothing going on that they are aware of at all, in any way, shape or form" involving Hasbro or Disney.

Wall Street analysts said a Disney acquisition didn't make much sense, just after Disney agreed to buy Lucasfilm Ltd. for $4.05 billion. And for any deal to happen, Hasbro would have to dissolve agreements with Disney's competitors.

So there you have it. For now, consider the rumors of a Disney buyout debunked.

I was unaware of the rumor. Thanks for the heads up, and I do agree that it is highly unlikely that Mattel would ever obtain Marvel license, but I don't think that it is 100% impossible. I was just saying never say never

I was thinking the same thing. It also looks like the armored part of the shoulder is smaller than on the con versions.

I would really like to see those abs on figures with armored abs like He-Ro, King Randor, etc. They look more stylized, less realistic, which would be perfect for armor which mimics abs.

And those boots definitely could be used in MOTUC. They would have been perfect on the palace guards for a more Filmation accurate look. Is this Batman going to be gray with black rather than gray with blue? I hope so because those boots in black could have so many uses for MOTUC customs.

Are you guys saying Ram Man shouldn't have the articulation to spread his legs wide?

Yeah, I was just thinking that's part of the articulation.

No doubt it's got the articulation. I just hope we don't have a repeat of the first He-Man and Skeletor releases where the crotch piece was too wide.
It's cool he can spread his legs out... I guess.

But I'm hoping they'll pull together to give him more of that cardback vintage look his prototype had.

Not flamin' ol Rammy by any means, he's looking great. Just looking forward to more people getting him for reviews so we can see better.

**stevetor** · November 28, 2012, 06:53pm

WOW!!! best Ram-Man EVER!!!!

His legs appear funny because they look a little skinny and unshapely. The tube look is fine, but the legs should get bigger at least in the thigh area.
