Why do people not believe 200X Adam will not be made when TG has all but said he will be?
I think, when he does come out, they should reverse this years release, and include a hidden 200X Orko!

Fans tend not to believe things until they see them. We see this all the time.
That's why POP, NA and 200X characters continue to be a major shock to fans. Although they are repeatedly told that ___________ will be represented in the line or that ___________ is coming, some fans will not accept this until a figure is revealed.
This was highlighted at Optikk and Carnivus' reveals.

The popular school of thought is that a slightly re-tooled DC universe body will be used.
It should be a smaller body, but then again, this is Mattel we're talking about. I wouldn't put past them killing the "young" Adam and releasing an "adult" Adam with the MYP clothes since Youth could be considered an "anime Hyperdetail".
IF he were to be made (being told he might/will be made... won't believe it till I see it) I'm really hoping for a smaller MOTUC looking body for young Adam. If it doesn't happen, then he'd better look as faithful to 200X Adam as possible within the parameters that the MOTUC style would allow.

But the DC Universe body sculpt (Be it the adult or the teen size bodies!) doesn't fit in with MOTUC. A teenage Adam would look ridiculous and out of sorts with the rest of the MOTUC. A newly sculpted body would have to be done to make it done right. And that is not in the cards!

we already have an adam. we don't need another. case closed. lock this thread.
We do need a younger Adam, if only to correct the Four Horsemen's error in judgement and give him a proper sheath for his sword.
It wasn't ridiculous in 200X, unless you hated Adam looking different than He-Man then. Unlike Classic Prince Adam who is so identical to He-Man, his head can be placed on He-Man's body for Pete's sake, a different looking Adam is the entire point of the figure.
If a 200X Adam is impossible, then you might as well say Sagitar (centaur), Artilla (blocky robot), Rokkon, Stonedar (rock people), Gwildor (dwarf), Leech (thick) and Mantenna (4 legs) are also impossible. All different body types AND newly sculpted bodies there.
Not to mention Snake Face, Rattlor, Multi-Bot, Ram Man, Rio-Blast, Extendar, Blast Attak, Dragstor, Saurod, Sssqueeze, Horde Trooper, Two Bad, Hoove and others.
If we had gotten 200X Adam before Classic Adam would you be feeling the same way?
I love how vintage purists would deny fans of other eras bonus figures.

My only problem with the release of a younger Adam is that the part of me that needs balance would want a younger Adora as well. I know we've never seen her, and she wasn't part of the story at that point in her life, but I would REALLY REALLY want to see her.

Actually, I doubt she *would* be a Force Captain at this point - SotS is fairly clear that (a) Adora hasn't been a FCpt long ("I've spent most of my life training in the Fright Zone - there's been little time to see the rest of Etheria"), and (b) that the Horde flunkies aren't happy at all about her very quick rise through the ranks, and put it down to nepotism ("Who cares about her? She shouldn't even be leading us - why, if she wasn't Hordak's favourite..."). At 16, she'd be just short of entering/just starting in the Horde-proper.

I don't think she is a "new character". Like Clamp Champ, she would have showed up in the third season. Toyguru knows about MYP's fourth season which introduced the NA characters, so Adora/She-Ra showing up in MYP is another plot point that we never saw.
As for canon, she could be Adora while she was training in the Fright Zone. Her bio could elaborate on her brainwashing.

A younger 200X Adam and Adora would be cool. The body could be re-used for other younger characters (currently available and Filmation):
Females:
- Teela
- Glimmer
- Castaspella's apprentice
Males:
- Stanlan (Melaktha's apprentice, Eternian archeologist)
- The boy who's a Royal Guard

Did I say I hated having Prince Adam looking different than He-Man? No I did not! I don't have a problem with Adam being a teen while He-Man was an adult. And did you even read what I said? I said the DC Universe bodies be it the adult or the teen sculpt just would "NOT" work with MOTUC. They do "NOT" fit in scale with MOTUC. I want my teenage Adam to fit in scale with the rest of the figures that have been produced! And we have heard time and time again that we would rarely if not at all see a MOTUC that would be a figure that would not have parts that could be shared to create another MOTUC character. A teenage Adam would need to be a completely newly tooled body for him to be made. Who else in MOTUC would be able to use these parts? No one! Even if Mattel did decide to go ahead and do it anyway! We would not see him anytime soon!
And I believe we probably won't see some of these characters. Not until Mattel stops with the making figures who are able to be produced by reusing parts.
No I wouldn't. Unlike you who always focuses on wanting 200x inspired looks in MOTUC. I like it all! All I want is to actually have a said character made into figure form! While yes, I do like some versions more than others. As long as I have that character. I am happy! Like right now, I want the Sorceress! I don;'t care if it is her original design (ala Filmation) or the 200X Egyptian style garb. I just want her cause she is a character that needs to be made into a figure!
