Poe's MOTUC Reviews, Pictures and Photos

Possibly...but it doesn't really look too much like that emblem. The best pic I could find is on this site, five pics down:

Another good review, Poe! Sorry about that foot, though.

Added my Vikor review!

**Matthew K** · January 31, 2011, 12:10pm

Ha! I love the opening paragraph, Poe. Good stuff and great reference!

No matter what, Vikor is Conan. I had a friend over this weekend (He's casually aware of MOTU. Not a collector) and he looked at my Vikor figure. The first thing out of his mouth was, "Cool looking Conan figure. I didn't know the He-man guys made Conan."

Love the Vikor review!

**Uki** · January 31, 2011, 08:52pm

The intro is killer, Poe. Great review, as usual! Keep it up.

**chuck20** · January 31, 2011, 08:53pm

great as always Poe! I love your perspective on MOTUC, you know a ton and it shows.

**Paul Justice** · February 1, 2011, 02:59am

Great review, and great intro to the review.

**Poe Ghostal** · February 16, 2011, 09:56am

Added my King Hssss review!

**Pixel Dan** · February 16, 2011, 05:04pm

Ah sweet! I haven't been able to get to Hss yet, with all the other TF stuff I've been working on.

Great stuff, Jason!!

Man he's so cool looking!!

Thanks for the great King Hssss review! It's a great looking figure, even if I still wish he had the 6th snake around the main snake's neck and that the 'arm' snakes' mouths were open so he could hold his staff in that form also.

You put other reviews or toylines above MOTU?

What about BA Skeletor?

Anything coming soon?

Unlike Mattel who doesn't hire professional fans, Hasbro liked Pixel Dan's videos and hired him to shoot TF videos.

They got Emiliano, now they got Dan. Soon Eamon and Val will follow too.
Roast Energon Dinner will be the end result.

Oh wow! I didn't know they had hired him to do that. Congrats, Dan. Doubt you remember, but I told you that you had it going on when it comes to video reviews. You're at the top of all of them.

I think he's kidding--Dan's "TF" meant "Toy Fair"

Regarding Battle Armor Skeletor--I got my King Hssss at Toy Fair. It wasn't shipped to me specially, as it is with Dan and other reviewers. So unless something surprising happens, I don't anticipate reviewing BA Skeletor before I get my sub one in.

**Alexx** · February 16, 2011, 06:50pm

King Hiss is awesome! I'm a little worried about how his arms don't seem to rest at his sides very much, but I want him to be more "action" than "statue" anyway, so he'll probably be in action poses 'n such.

Yeah, I ran with it.

I'm not SCB...don't have his talent for humor.

Oh, hell: I thought Dan had stepped up in the world. Won't be surprised if he does, though.

**Tuukka** · February 16, 2011, 08:04pm

I would be interested to see a picture of that "plug" how they made it. Any change of braking thru time?

Great review, thanks!

**Pixel Dan** · February 16, 2011, 10:36pm

Yeesh...look at MGM, spreading rumors about me!

**KingRandor82** · February 17, 2011, 03:40am

As I said before--based on the pictures from Poe's review--Hsss looks to me like the lovechild of Dana Carvey as the Church Lady and the Beagle Boys.

**Uki** · February 17, 2011, 09:35am

Looks good! Now, with the staff being two pieces, do they come apart?

**sithjedi171** · February 17, 2011, 10:32am

Overall King Hsss looks really good in my opinion. I've been anxiously awaiting his arrival ever since he was revealed at SDCC. However I do think that his face seems a little off. I can't quite put my finger on what bothers me about it though...
