SDCC Exclusive Evolution - 2012 Speculation

[Berserker79]

I think He-Man as an exclusive would fit the 30th anniversary. He-Man is THE main character of MOTU!

But it should be something iconic which is well known. So an Alcala head, vintage toy accurate head & a Filmation head with fitting mini comic & Filmation swords and ither fitting stuff would be freaking cool!

[Shokoti's Slave]

Shokoti/Masque two pack?

I like your Idea, but Remember the SDCC/Matty packouts will only be $30.00 and as you well know Mattel sells the figures at $20-$22 each.
The Palace Guards two pack was $40.00

As much as I love your Idea and would love to see this two pack I doubt those will be the SDCC/Matty packouts, at leat not at $30.00

I agree He-Man is the bread & butter of the line. A SDCC Exclusive with the Alcala head and weapons & the Matty Packout with He-Mans Filmation look with a new hand and weapons would really celebrate the 30th, one figure buck with multiple heads and accessories.

I don't know there have been so many great guess's as to what it will be and all of them sound like they could happen.
I just hope we all aren't disapointed come april when Scott announces the SDCC/Matty MOTUC's Exclusive.

this kind of feels like a pop year so i'm guessing...

1) modulok
2) madame razz, broom, and kowl
3) mantenna w/ imp

I'd be down for the second option.

ok, maybe this will be utopistic, but i'd love a oo-larr/ tony guerrero prototype:
two heads, of course (alcala style and guerrero's helmeted prototype);
upper torso like trap jaw, to swap arms;
two pair of arms (with and without bracers);
lower torso like king hiss, to swap hips;
two hips & legs parts (loincloth without belt and bare legs & feet; loincloth with belt and boots);
spear and dagger for oo-larr (corodyte harness, axe and shield are non really necessary, 'cos
they come packaged with the goddess); for guerrero's prototype the remaining weapons from
the rack which didn't come in "rusty" silver;

...too much for $ 30?!?

I think that would be perfectly acceptable budget wise as it would re-use a lot of already tooled resources.

[Nemisythe]

I'm starting to think there may be a possibility that for the 30th that we may get the very first sculpt that Anthony G. Guerrero did. It would make sense in ways 30th Anniversary with the very first?

I mean if you look at the Demo-Man figure it does come with the skull in helmet of that actual character... Which according to the description says it's "a skull trophy". The question is exactly from where did that trophy come from???

[PrinceAdam101]

I'm still hoping for more than one SDCC item. Have there been any rumors regarding how many different MOTUC items will be created?

[Beastmaster]

I think TG said 1, but with the highest piece count ever!

[Squishy Duck Man]

Shokoti/Masque two pack?

I would walk from central Canada to San Francisco to own that.

This makes PERFECT sense! This would celebrate 30 years of He-man. Added to this the Alcala "Oo-lar" head to match. The weapons that came with Goddess would go on him to recreate the story. SDCC can be packaged as Oo-Lar and the Matty one can be the warrior Anthony Guerrero created. IMO this would celebrate the line well and I'm sure many others have thought about this as well. **Alcala Power Sword too**

[Mattlor]

Highest piece count makes me think of Modulok.. I loved him as a kid. But Modulok doesn't say 30th anniversary to me.. as he came out after he-man near the end of the line with PoP stuff. I hope we get him though soon!

I am a little stumped on this one with the clue of the most pieces ever... and at the $30 price I dont expect it to be a big figure if it comes with a lot of pieces. I am also thinking it might be a filmation character that we did not get before. At least with the anniversary being this year.

I made the assumption at first it may be the original Guerrero sculp, but now may be thinking since it says piece count; could it be the 3 original concept figures, but in the sense that it's one figure with all the accessories to create each one???

Can someone post a good picture of this? My "world class research facility" is failing me at the moment.

Thank you.

If this is what we end up getting, I don't know how they will be able to interchange some of that to where all three can be represented accurately on one figure.

[mjw41]

If this ends up being what we get shown in April for the exclusive it could be done. The Horsemen are fantastic scuplters and would make all the parts so it was interchangeable. I really hope for modulok because at $30.00 plus shipping I'm not sure I could do three sets if it's the concept three. I like the Idea of Hordak & imp too. Just have to play the waiting game I guess.

The same way Kalamarr is being done- removable torso piece. Seeing as how TG mentioned highest piece count ever it would certainly make sense and still be cheaper than if you had a Modulok/Multi-bot exclusive for $30.

Yeah, but the boot (in color) and loin cloth pieces (different design) do not match. They won't look exactly like the prototypes unless they have switchable feet/loin areas.

[Teacher of Madness]

Would Mattel even dare making that helmet/jetpack combo on the one on the right? Seeing as how they outright refused even doing the movie or filmation figures that appeared in the minicomics they have the rights too (like Karg and Shadow Weaver), and with Scott repeatedly saying that they won't even touch things that are questionable like that, why would they risk making what is obviously a Boba Fett helmet and jetpack with what looks like a firing rocket? It's one of nerddom's most iconic looking pieces of headgear.

I think you may be on the right track Mattlor. I'm not sure even remotely what to guess it will be, but I would agree with yout post.

Thats what I was thinking too, but if Mattel did do this it would depend on how the horsemen scuplted it.

[Zodach]

I think it's been said that Mattel does not own the rights to those concept He-man figures, or at least they aren't sure if they own any of the rights so I doubt they will pursue them. That's fine by me because I'm not very excited about any of them.

[NorthCoast]

That's fine by me because I'm not very excited about any of them.

Neither am I, my friend. I'd much rather have the speculated "ultimate" He-Man pack!
