I LOVE the rock people! Especially Granita, she totally deserves a figure this time around, as well as Jewelstar!
This is a cool idea! As long as it works and the figures can still fold up to become rocks, then I'd be for this.
And did it ever bother anyone else that the original figures would still have an opening on the bottom when in rock form?
If only the 4Hm could solve this problem this time around—maybe they could include a new "rock" sheild that could double as a snap-in cover for that opening? I think that might work!
Plus, wouldn't it be cool if they each came with a shield to go with their light blaster guns?
– No comment.
I simply love Rokkon and Stonedar!
They are absolute favorites of mine and I can't wait to see them made in MOTU Classics!!
I'd also love to see the mini-comics Female Rock Warrior! I'm sure we get a new cool name for her. Maybe something like Crystal, Solida, Masiva, Minera, ...![]()

Stonedar and Rokkon are very original characters!!! I like them in the minicomics 'Rock People to Rescue'. I definitely hope to see them updated in MOTUC.
Rokkon and Stonedar are one of my favourite characters from the vintage line. They have a very cool design and never seen before weapons (very cool that they can be displayed in arms and chest of the figure!).
I only want one thing: If the armor is a snap one, please make that the rock parts can transform into the meteor form.
I also want minicomics Granita and hope to get an evil Rock warrior (repainting the mold with a new head).
I even want the little Meteorbs with 4H style.

Didn't Emiliano hint that Granita was a Mattel created character? Actually, he didn't say her by name, he only said he had discovered a female character from the POP show that never got an action figure that was property of Mattel. He could have been talking about a totally different character because I don't recall him actually telling us who it was but I remember all the clues pointing to Granita.
I don't know, maybe I'm totally misremembering this and he was really talking about Imp or something.
The Rock people do need a female though, either Granita or that female warrior from the mini's would be totally cool. (both would be awesome.)

Wanted: Episode 40 Comic.
While they are at it, they should make Calix, the ill fated rock man of Hordak's horde from the MYP show, and incorporate him as a Rock person whom possibly betrayed his people to join the Horde.
Unfortunately both Granita & Octavia are characters that only appeared in Fimation's cartoons, so at the moment neither of them can be made.![]()
While they aren't in my list of absolute fave characters, I'm down with the Rock People, and look forward to them being a part of the line whenever they happen to come out. And yeah, I'd like a female Rock Person to join Rokkon and Stonedar as well.
Being a fan of The Rock Lords, I've always enjoyed the rock cahracters in MOTU as well! So yeah, I woudl definitely love to get some of these in MOTUC! bring them on!!

I'd be happy to get them. Probably of any characters that never got a figure in the 200X action figure or staction line, these would be the top ones that I'd like to see made. And I do prefer them to some characters that did get stactions, like Rio Blast and Clamp Champ.
They aren't my top favorite overall MOTU characters, but IMO they were some of the better character concepts to come out of the last couple of waves or so of the original 80s toy line.
____________________________________________
The characters are among my favourites but no, I don't want Rock People that can't turn into rocks and come with a plastic rock inside the package so we can "pretend" they transformed.
If they make them, I hope they wait until they can do so properly.

I really liked Stonedar and Rokkon! I really like the idea of them having removable Rock Armor. They could look really cool if they didn't have to rely on he gimmick of folding into a rock.

yea them turning in to rocks seem like that could be considered too gimmicky, and im absolutely fine with them not turning into boulders. but theres really no nostalgia there for me, i liked the rock lords as a kid, and had several of the first line, but remember seeing stonedar and rokkon at my friends house and being confused if they were supposed to be rock people or rock robots, i wasnt entirely sure (and yet i loved the meteorbs, *shrugs*)
It always takes me 10 minutes to figure out how to edit this signature
I want meteorbs dang nabbit!!!

I'd only really be interested in rock people if we got all three...including Granita. As a child I always felt the set incomplete without her and oftern looked for her on shelves only to be disappointed
I agree. They did feel incomplete. Just like how there were more than just two Snakemen, and more than just two Horde figures. (And no the meteorbs didn't count in my book...)
So I always wanted at LEAST one other Rock person, regardless of who it was, yet Granita would've been my preference.![]()

I agree it did bother me a bit however as a kid I recall having them attack in rock form differently. I would take the guns they came with that attached to the hole in their chest and act like they would fire the weapon through the opening. That way they were armored and could still attack. It may not have been intended but that was how I would compensate for them not being able to roll around.
I would love to see new versions of them!

I would love to get these figures in the classics style. I always loved them when I was a kid.
