Happy to share the Panrico awesomeness, Icer! Glad you like them!
I finally got the Eternia, Snake Mountain and Fright Zone shipped in from my brother in Philly - HUGE BOXES!!! I was thrilled to find out the Christmas labels came right off as the tape had dried out! Score!
I also picked up a nice Battle Cat as well as a Megalazer and Stilt Stalkers on so-so cards. They are on the misfit wall with Thunder Punch caps and an Orko missing his coin trick.

He is the gentleman I bought these from. Never got around to opening them as a kid as he was beginning to be 'too old' for them when his parents bought them for him. He was a real stand-up guy during our negotiations and I was almost sorry to remove the tags!

Nice finds. What's a Rotoplast though?
Congratz Icer!

Figures that were made in Venezuela. Hard to find and even harder to get shipped without being damaged. Customs out of the Venezuela have broken at least 5 figures over the last year.
Cheers
Yeah I had U.S. Customs destroy a sealed Rotoplast card and take the figure out
I got a VERY minty, complete King Randor, with cardback for $50 at the Denver Comic Con last weekend.
Grabbed a few more pewter minis for my Grenadier MOTU minis collection!

I actually got the Tri-Klops and Faker and complete Battle Ram from a supposedly sealed set I got on eBay. It must have been reglued because Tri-Klops and the Ram are partially painted! Also, Skeletor's staff was broken off and missing. Luckily, that was an extra.
The Wind Raider and two rider figures came from a collector in Europe.

I hit the big three-oh last month and alongside a Classics Trapjaw I received a MOTU T-shirt (which doesn't fit but I'm not telling my Mum that), a plushie Battle-cat, a clock made from a MOTU annual, vintage Snake- Face (completing the snake men for me) and an original He-Man cake tin from the 80s which my wife used to bake my birthday cake. Tasty and AWESOME.

Does anyone have any info on these? Pictures of a box or anything? I may put them in a thread to get some help.

Congrats, I have never seen a picture of a mib example just the loose ones like you have.
Contact me if you have MOTU Merchandise Items for sale or trade! Please view a sampling of what I am looking for Here:

Has anyone ever read anything about the 5th set? Was it only produced in certain countries? Were they prototypes? Do we even have a list of what goes in that 5th set? With the other 4 sets only having one 'large' piece each like BattleCat or Wind Raider, I find it strange that there are THREE large items - Panthor, Talon Fighter and Attak Trak - floating around out there without a set associated to them. Was it maybe some sort of deluxe set? Maybe the figures included were just the same as in the other sets? I know in the merch section, there is also a picture of an Evil Lyn in a riding pose so was she in the set?
Or are these three large items from THREE unknown sets? The mind boggles.
Now back to our regularly scheduled thread, already in progress.
