Oo-Larr Official Discussion and Speculation thread

[krosfyah]

OK so if Oo-Larr is indeed the subscription figure this year then thats cool, but that would mean this sub figure has brand new sculpted parts (if mini comic accurate) he's need bare feet (human) bare shins and calves, bare forearms and a beltless loin cloth thats a bit of new (or at the least modified) tooling for a sub only figure. so that means the line is doing even better than before as thy can now justify new tooling for a bonus 'no monthly sales slot" figure or they have to use those parts elsewhere. anyone have ideas for what they can do? I can't think of anyone.

also what the heck accessories would he come with? I mean they could package him with he-man's gear but that is redundant for a few reasons we got them already with he-man and the goddess, at first glance it would just make this look like a naked he-man with armour on the side. so he will come with a power sword most likely but what else??

[chuc98]

I believe he had a spear in the mini comic. That would most likely be his weapon, and probably a different colored power sword. As for parts reuse…the bare feet could be used for a "200X-like" Stratos. Maybe the feet could be used for King Hsss as well? In addition to what you've mentioned, Oo-Larr would require a new hair sculpt too. His hair was longer than the standard He-Man we all know.

I have a feeling they may not even bother with a different hair sculpt or power sword.

didnt this minicomic version of he-man just use the axe and the sheild, and the power sword was an object to be obtained?the loin cloth should have the belt, but a more brown color, i like the bare foot idea aswell as bare fore-arms.wow motu gets better and better with this line

The original wonder bread he-man had two diff looks right? I'm just wondering if he'll have that 2nd look. We've got one version already in the form of Wun-Dar right?

- Stone Power Sword
- Spear
- He-man Silver Harness
- Stone Axe

But, if they want to wow everyone wouldn't they go all out? You'd think they'd do that to get as many subscriptions as possible.

The loin cloth most certainly should NOT have a standard belt…all he had on when he left his tribe was the loin cloth with a rope-like "belt" and a spear in his hand.

I picture them saying: "Here's Jungle He-Man with his spear before he happened upon the Goddess."

[VaultsofGrayskull]

Oo-larr? Is that really the name they're giving him? Is the Goddess supposed to have taken a fancy to him and said (in best French accent) "ooh la la! I've found me a handsome barbarian"? Let's hope the figure is miles better than the name!

[MegaGearMax]

Jungle He-Man's bare arms and legs (except for feet) can be reused for Modulok.

I'm not too crazy about the name, but I am crazy that we actually might be getting a Pre-Filmation He-Man and about the fact that Jungle He-Man was the He-Man just before Adam was--just like how it was when Jungle He-Man was He-Man for almost 2 years before Adam appeared in DC Comics.

Not really. The hardcore fans who will get the subscriptions won't really care what characters that they get and they really won't care about the "incentive" figure. The "incentive" figure is actually a bonus, a 13th figure.

Bare feet and arms are a must. i'd like a slight resculpt of the waist to remove the belt so it's just a pair of furry sdhorts, but that might be too big of an ask.

I'm happy with the same old He-man head though.

Spear and powersword are a must. Getting Whiplash's spear might be a little lame, but I could see it happening. Ideally i'd like to see a wood effect, primative spear.
If POP Bow is on the horizon then i'd also like him to come with the actual bow from that toy as a re-use and nod to Jungle He-man from 200X.

[Poe Ghostal]

The bare feet of Oo-Larr might be re-used for Vikor, as a bonus figure. Though whether they'd go with the actual concept prototype Vikor or the concept art Vikor, I don't know.

As for the accessories, I'm betting he'll come with at least more than a spear. Maybe that other golden sword on this page. But I do think there will be something great about him--be it fantastic accessories or interchangeable parts or something--to make him a genuine incentive for subscribing.

[darkmoon766]

I hope he has a new head sculpt somehow. Longer hair, an Alcala style head, or a head that looks closer to the original figure (stronger more sunken cheeks, an actual nose with,gasp, nostrils). I don't really care for the motuc style head right now anyway. Maybe a dagger-boot knife? He had that in a few pages in the heman and the powersword minicomic. Also, the weapons the goddess showed him included a sheathed shortsword and some sort of poled weapon.

[J_Man]

So is this all org-member speculation or has Toyguru actually said they're taking the character in the comic that the tribe even called He-Man and renaming him Oo-Lar? I don't exactly think that would necessarily be him just as I didn't think Wun-Dar was either.

[Whiplash7]

I'd like to see him come with more than just a spear. A knife, bow and arrows, maybe?

It could be pure speculation--hell, people are now assuming it's the sub exclusive when it could be anything--but it does seem to add up. Add to that the fact that they would have to ignore various parts of those stories, because they were the canon, and there are contradictions. For instance, it's pretty much said in that canon that He-Man is the future king of Castle Grayskull, and now Jungle He-Man couldn't be that person in this canon. It's cherry picking certain things for the sake of making figures.

[chuc98]

Not really. The hardcore fans who will get the subscriptions won't really care what characters that they get and they really won't care about the "incentive" figure. The "incentive" figure is actually a bonus, a 13th figure.

I was speaking more for people that are on the fence about getting a subscription…not the hardcore fans. A really good bonus figure might convince those people to buy in.

[Darkspecter]

I wouldn't be surprised if it's naked He-Man with Goddess' spear and a green or brown (or a combination of both) Power Sword. Anything better and I'll be pleasantly surprised.

[Agostinho]

Lame as it sounds, I'm excited about the bare lower legs so we're one piece closer to a King (not battle-ready) Randor. We just next some elf shoes and the jacket with the poofy sleeves.

[RyDell]

How cool would it be for him to have removable lower legs / feet so he can have skin and bare feet or He-Man boots... they did it with Kronis in the arms. That would be really cool, I don't care too much about the belt, but if they do indeed make him, I'd like to be able to pose his as either Jungle-Man or He-Man. Definitely needs a spear, ax, shield and armor.

My thoughts exactly. I would say that he will come with none of the items that the Goddess came with so that he can get them from her. I believe that that was Mattel's plan all along.

[Toymaker]

They could always add extra accessories by giving him 200X Jungle He-Man's weapons

[maltesefalcon]

how about this oo-lar on battlephant: 20062010 001.jpg

Its pure 100% speculation! but as we all know without us all 'speculating' wildly this site would fade away!

You don't kow how happy a Jungle Attack He-Man would make me!!!!

[Jay Bell]

I could see that. The spear, sword and the loose boots. It would be odd, but no odder than the loaf of bread with Wun-dar.
