    Gygor or Shadow Beast?

    Now that we have both, which MOTUC Beast sized figure do you prefer and why?

    I voted for Shadow Beast.

    Although I think Gygor is amazing, I've wanted a Shadow Beast for about 20 years!!

    Shadow Beast rules the school, I always wanted beasts for Beastman to command, and who the H is Gygor anyway? (That's a rhetorical question.)

    This was a hard one! Do I prefer a giant gorilla wearing a cape with fur the same color as urine or a monster from my favorite toy based cartoon of all time???

    As much as I love the Shadow Beasts(toon & toy), I have to give it to the big ape.

    I am a BAD vintage purist.

    Shadowbeast, because his facial expression is more neutral. I couldn't handle Gygor's rage.
    Ask not for whom MOTUC is made, it's made for thee.

    If you have to disclaimer your like, then you don't really like it.

    OMG more votes for the Shadow Beast than for Gygor???!!! That's just wrong lol Well not really, but yeah surprising results so far - maybe I need to get myself a Shadow Beast soon!

    LOVE the Gygor though! What a truly awesome, gigantic, ape-like beast...with a cape!

    My vote in for Gygor, The shadow beast dont do anything for me. In fact I wished they never released the Shadow Beast.

    Neither. Waste of plastic/figure development slots.

    Would rather have had Ram-Man or Leech. I would not have missed either of these figures if they had never been made.

    Interesting how close this poll has been going.

    I picked the Shadow Beast for several reasons. The Shadow Beasts are more known than Gygor ever was. They were a Filmation-born creature who returned in the MYP series. And now, in the MOTUC "canon", they are a Count Marzo creation so I was really happy with that.

    Gygor is an awesome looking figure though. Sweet colors and accessories and a prototype from the vintage line.

    I can see why it is a very close poll.

    To me, Gygor's a bit redundant; Beast Man's the perfect savage Evil Warrior, IMHO. And while neither Gygor or the Shadow Beasts had vintage figures, the Shadow Beasts at least appear in the Filmation series.

    So I voted for Shadow Beasts.

    I got the Shadow Beast today. He's cool, but a bit boring compared to Gygor.

    Shadow Beast for me. Even though they are a Fillamation design, I could easily see them in pre-fillamation mini-comics

    I personally would have to pick Gygor, it's just something about his color scheme that wins me over.

    Woah...shocked at all the votes for Gygor. I thought it would be Shadow Beast by a landslide!

    Anyway, Shadow Beast for me: cool, creepy, evil, dangerous, wicked awesome spiked club.

    I think Gygor looks so ****** off because he can't figure out if his parents are Sprite or 7-Up! I kid, I kid.
