Leo Faker support thread

[Brian Ozone]

I think it would be so cool to have this figure made for all to own. I always wanted him. He looks so cool. And that orange Havoc Staff is so sweet.

This could be an awesome quartlery figure.

[BlueStreak]

Maybe as a rerelease. I don't want another Faker figure.

[Spikewolfe]

I'd like a Leo Faker in MOTUC as well. I think it would be a great evolution of the character. They could have him damaged and trashed and reprogrammed by either the Horde or the Snake Men to be a fake Keldor/Skeletor this time instead! Some of you will recognize this from the story in "Fakor's Reprogramming" - the fan made mini-comic that was included with the Musashi Toys Horde Trooper custom variations. A good story idea, but I doubt Mattel could/would use it. I figure they could come up with something even better if they did a Leo Faker IMO!

[Uki]

I think it likely we'll see this variation on Skeletor's evil robot. Toyguru even insinuated such in a Q&A awhile back, I believe.

Got any pics?

I think I know what Leo Faker is... and whilst I don't feel the need for one to be made, I'd be happy to own one. I love Faker variants, for some reason

[LEE-RO]

Hell Yeah!
I want one of these please.

I actually have an extra Skeletor and a Faker, maybe I could make a custom one.

Tho I'd rather have a matty one with interesting bio too.

Good luck at finding one!
It's one of the rarest figures ever.
Another super rare one is a carded "skeletor arms" Faker.

[Swanmarsh]

I'd love to add this figure to my collection. And I didn't know about the Skeletor arms version. WOW!

What I'm really really hoping for is a caucasian skin version of Faker (with glow in dark eyes) as a DCvsMOTU 2 pak suggestion. This could be disguised faker as per the vintage toon.

[Toymaker]

I don't know if he looks different enough to warrant a A-List variants release, maybe as a different SKU, or add the orange Havoc Staff into a weapons pack

I think for historical and fan-demanded variants like this (they would have been chase figures in the 200x line) Mattel should consider offering special out-of-subscription variant releases. I would be happily prepared to brave Mattycollector to fight WSOD for such a variant (or a mini-comic accurate i.e. kit-bashed green Trap Jaw) without it taking a slot as an A-list variant in the sub or even a re-issue slot.

And some of these figures would include either more than 1 accessory to do correctly, or some different parts to the original MOTUC version, meaning they are not all good options for DCvsMOTU 2 paks.

[Tuukka]

Anybody have a time and skills to make a quality mock up?

[Count Marzo]

Just throw orange Skeletor accessories in the next Weapons Pak. That's the easy solution. Maybe Faker shouldve came with an extra "Leo" head though since his eyes are different too.

I just don't think it's that big of a deal to release a "Leo Faker" when the accessories needed could easily have been provided.

[Brian Ozone]

He would be a great a lister.

A Leo Faker still needs an orange Skeletor belt though, and that's a molded on item in MOTUC.

OK.. I did one:

I would love for his eyes to light up actually. nice suggestion.

Somebody made a Faker with eyes that light up red. It was in the custom's section. Very cool indeed.

I personaly feel that MOTUC Faker's bio is the worse one to date.
They could have added a lot to the character, but the bio doesn't even explain why his colours are the way they are.

I'd prefer he was a cyborg like the Terminator and his flesh tone got messed up during his creation, tho he can appear like he-man for short periods of time.
He should have his own personality(an opposite of He-man to be exact) and own ambition's which lead him to try and overthrow Skeletor with his own cloned Havoc staff and magic armour etc.

ie Leo Faker is the evolution to the original Faker we already got.

[FAKER II]

Leo Faker is my most wanted foreign variant. But maybe I'm a little biased. And given the scarcity of the original, I think Mattel wouldn't have a hard time selling him.

[Snake Hunter]

Maybe it can be a repaint in a MOTU / DC SET - FAKER VS BIZARRO.

I love the orange staff.


Maybe there are 2 Fakers in MOTUC, one a robot, this one is a sorcerer from other dimension where Heman is evil and Skeletor is heroic.

[RyDell]

I'm sure an Orange Havoc staff in a weapons pack is as close as it will ever get... which is fine by me.

Id take that two pack.

[Darkspecter]

I actually really think Leo Faker is awesome. It's like...if Faker overthrows Skeletor. I want to see this. He needs the crazy black eye make-up and all.

Wouldn't it be sufficient to get the accessories in a future weapons pak? Seems like a quick replacement to make this figure...
