    When I was 7 or so, this would have been one of my favorite figures. I loved knights, loved those colors. It's so toyetic to me that it really hits home.

    I just overheard on a livestream that Johns was about the only person willing to do it for free, so that's another reason we've got him and Scott doing these. Blame those who demanded money!! Or not. I like the fun, silly characters that remind me not of MOTU specifically, but of the the enjoyment I had with the toys at the time 30 years ago.

    I definitely prefer Laser-Lot to Spector ! Laser-Lot is far from being as cool as Draego-Man, though.

    I like his colours. And I really like his plume (it's a detail, but it enhances him quite a bit, I think). He doesn't look bad to me, but there's something too simple about him. His armor lacks details, I think. His helm too. Obviously, he reuses many parts (yeah... another lazy figure !).

    But still, I like him. He reminds me of the very simple look of the Filmation toon. I may buy him, provided he doesn't suffer from QC issues. Speaking of QC issues, I'm a bit worried about the translucent parts (translucent usually means "very easily breakable", in MOTUC - cf. Goddess and Roboto's chest)...

    Oh ! That's it ! Now I KNOW who he reminds me of... Hydron ! He has something that kind of looks like Hydron's face (that red jaw protection, I guess). And his colours are not too far from Hydron's... I think he'll probably look better next to the Galactic Protectors (you can tell he's a good guy).

    Terrible speculation that only serves to dismiss fan criticism.

    My response to such "ifs" is that this guy would've never made it into the line because his design wouldn't have been strong enough to contend.

    I actually Like this guys and now that I think of it I would so have all the 30th aniversary figures hang out with each other except Draego Man ofcourse. They would be like the equivalent of the Mystery Men. This guys makes me excited to have Spector now so that in my cannon they can be like the Great Lakes Avengers with the Fearless Photog! I love it! I caompletely change my stance on Spector now I love it!!!! I never thought that having 2 negatives would make a huge positive for me!!! Yes!!! No Sarcasm Here I really want them now!
    2012 Create a character Runners up Mini-Sub please!!! (While were at it a 4 Horseman MOTUC original Mini Sub too Please!!!)

    "A dwarf with a metal head? How could any villain feel threatened by this guy?"

    "He's a lumberjack with a metal hand! Did they run out of ideas?"

    "Is this an Asian Fisto? Do we need to have lame characters done again with a different ethnicity?"


    This, you hit the nail on the head. I find him very interesting looking, the name? not my favorite for sure.

    Also anyone complaining about the 30th Anniversary sub is just ridiculous, it was pointed out these would be all new characters and the sub was only made because fans demanded it.

    I think he's great! Love all the translucent parts.

    He has a total vintage MOTU vibe to him, and the name is pure 80's MOTU cheesy!
    Yes!!

    There's even a tiny Crystar/Visionaries vibe going on for me, which I find appropriate. 80s crazy fantasy toys got together and had a baby named Lazer-Lot.

    I disagree. He's got more going on than the main hero He-Man design wise, and gimmick aside he's got more going on than Extendar.

    The dark version reminds me a bit of the air centurions or Skeletor's stormtroopers.

    I actually like the figure I agree he looks very Filmation and seems like something we would have gotten in the 80's.

    I think the best part of Lazor-Lot is how Mattel/TG is going to fit him into the bios. I assume he is a good guy, is he a Master? Is he part of the Great Rebellion? Is he evil and if so is part of Skeletor's men, Horde, or a loner? Or is he part of NA? Some many questions to be answered.

    I was hoping we'd get Mighty Spectors bio at NYTF, but just TP He-Man.

    I think he fits in better then MS. But he looks like Robotos uncle or half brother or something. Totally get a filmation vibe

    Agree with those who say he looks NA. In fact, I may put the alternate Icarius head on him.

    He looks more interesting than Spector to me and I think he has potential, but his body is just way too generic. I dig the translucent parts, although I'm totally pressed that he has it (the part coming off the helmet) and Tallstar doesn't. She would have rocked big time in the toy colors with boots and hands in that shade of red with some glitter mixed in. It seems anyone can have transulcent parts now. It's losing the specialness.

    yeah all the blue needs to be broken up a bit. I bet the pony tail is easily removable

    While this is not one of my fave, i still think it's pretty decent.
    Its colour, however, are far too vibrant. Luckily, i'm not bad at customizing, and will repaint it

    I actually have a whole new appreciation for the Mighty Spector, after seeing this mess of a figure. Where are all of the laser guns? A MOTU figure with this name "Laser Lot" should have a bunch ("lot") of lasers guns. Don't tell me that the mace is made up of lasers, because that would be even lamer.

    But they didnīt say that weīll get such trashy figures. After Draego Man everything went down.

    Geoff Johns thought of this? I'd imagine something pretty amazing from him, but this? Count me somewhat disappointed. To me it has a somewhat vintage look to it and the colors of red and blue make a nice combination as well. He isn't as good as Draego-Man but better than Spector. He seems to be a character that takes time to grow on you. I guess at this point, we won't have a new female character and all of them will end up being male. Saw that one coming.

    The design isn't really that bad, it's the horrible colors. A cool looking knight fits in perfect with MOTU.

    I do really like the weapons. I'd love to see them in a new deco in a future weapons pack. The sword, as is, would look great with Icarius.
