could it be?
maybe the 4 Horsemen are trying to add the Galaxy Fighters to MOTUC!
I could see him as a Fighting Foe Man. Since (as far as I can tell) there was nothing at all about the FFM--no literature, drarwings, concepts, nuttin--they can pretty much do whatever they want. I put my vote in for one of those guys.
And since Vikor is my favorite character/figure, I'll definitely be happy to have this guy. Looking forward to it!

I'm really loving his design! i love it when the 4h allowed to just run wild
So it's a dragon-man. Better than a full-on dragon. I've never been a fan of dragons in motu at all...drags it way too far 'medieval earth' territory. But this guy looks KILLER. Great use of parts, old and new, cool weapons and a really great paint-job. The colours really pop. Nice creation!

Draego-Man is great! Not only do we FINALLY get a fire-based character in MOTU, but he's a freaking dragon! So awesome.
I really like him.
I already said it in another thread, I think Draegor-Man is one of the fighting foe men.
Maybe Marzo as an archenemy was the biggest thing to happen to Mekaneck, but as far as Marzo was concerned...it was Tuesday.
Hey guys, Dragon man uses the King Hsss arms and shoulders. Have they corrected the shoulders or are they reversed?
I would say it depends on your definition of "a lot of new tooling." He's complete parts reuse from the waist down; looks like he has new armor (reminiscent of He-Man's Battle Armor) probably over a standard torso; reused shoulders/biceps/forearms; reused Whiplash tail; making the gauntlets, hands, armor, head, weapons, and wings new. And I can't be the only person that's guessing those wings could be used for Granamyr, too.
He looks great...a must buy! The 4HM never disappoint.
He has the Hiss arms. I wonder if his shoulders will be backwards? I suppose they will because Toyguru said this issue wouldn't be an easy fix...

He's NEAT-O!
I guess we'll find out more about who he is and how he ties into the mythos, much later on?
Also: REALLY SUPER EXCITED that they are introducing new characters!
Etherian Rebel JOSH for the MOTUC (see my avatar)!
i personally love this kind of fantasy mythology characters & monsters. they never made enough of them as toys. so, i'm excited, but a little bummed that its not dragoon instead.
Yeah I actually had that Galaxy Warriors figure in my collection when I was a kid, and immediately thought of him the moment I saw that picture of Draego Man! Now I have to get that figure based on that connecton alone, as Ive been wanting something along those lines!
I'm confident that there's no way Scott allows reversed shoulders to happen again.
Feel Free to add these to the OG post![]()

I'm not changing my profile picture until we get Geldor in MOTUC (hey, it worked for Mike Bock!)
Have you noticed how the Draego Man's symbol reminds of Four Horseman logo in shape.![]()
It's no more likely that a 2002-era Hiss would have reversed shoulders than any other figure. The difficulty in swapping them for the original Hiss for a new production run is that it takes up a development slot... which a new figure would already be doing.
I would actually place bets that a 2002-era King Hiss would actually have a better chance at having corrected shoulders because Toyguru would feel horrible if two different King Hiss figures had the same issue (not that he doesn't feel bad every time there's an issue like that).
Hum... guys... could you please help me and tell me if these pictures come from the Matty Panel, from the 4 Horsemen booth or what ?
I took me a full hour to prepare a post on the reveals, and now I just discovered there's THIS new reveal ! What a GREAT day !
And honestly... I WANT DRAEGO MAN ! RIGHT NOW !!! AAAAARRRGH ! *foams at the mouth*
Holy poop ! This character is the BEST looking, most motivating character I've seen in a VERY LONG time !![]()
The sculpt is PERFECT ! The colors are bright and vibrant ! The sword and the shield are excellent !!!
IF THEY RELEASE HIM, I BUY HIM (and he's better not come with flaws !) !!!
FANTASTIC CHARACTER ! Flippin' sweet !!! I've not been enthused like this for AGES !
I hope he's one of those mysterious fighting foe men... and that we'll se him in a mini-comic !
On a side note, YES, we'll have to be VERY careful about his "Hssss shoulders". This time, they MUST be assembled properly !
