Randor's Royal Rumble!!! (MOTU2002 Round 1: Zodak VS Samurai Battle Raptor)

[Mr. Shokoti]

RANDOR'S ROYAL RUMBLE RULES

* Pick a winner based on who you feel is more powerful, who you like better, or who has the best fashion sense. There is no wrong reason for why you picked who you picked.

* The Rumble will end after a week's time. The winner will be safe until their next Rumble. If there is a tie, I will call for a tie breaker. Once I do, the first character voted for in this thread is the winner.

* Each Round consists of 2 characters from an era/spinoff of this franchise(MOTU, POP, NA, 2002, MOTUC).

* Once the Round is over, I will post a Wildcard Match where each of the Rumble losers will be placed against each other. The winner will get a second chance & be safe until their next Rumble.



ZODAK



VS

SAMURAI BATTLE RAPTOR

Samurai Battle Raptor, because he looks ready to **** some **** up.

[Mr. Shokoti]

I haven't been a big fan of angry anti-heroes since I was a teenager, but I've always loved dinosaurs. I don't know how he's a Samurai, but I'm giving it to Samurai Battle Raptor.

Woo-hoo!! New Mr. Shokoti "Vs." threads... glad to see 'em!!

I'm gonna go with Zodak for this round. My only reason is that I never liked that Battle Raptor.

Thanks!

When I first came to this site several years ago, I did my "VS" threads as polls, but felt I wouldn't use up so much room with individual polls if I made them as ongoing regular threads. Unfortunately, I found that you get a lot more traffic in a poll than a thread. I guess it's easier to click your choice than type it out.

I'll take a character over some random Evil Warrior ride anyday.

Okay, I voted Zodak, but can I get a "Hell's Yes!" to getting Battle Raptor made in MOTUC? I think he'd be a great mount for Skeletor in Preternia.

I'd love to have a dinosaur in this line and I feel, due to his size, there'd be a lot better chance of seeing the Battle Raptor than some of the larger dinosaurs from the Preternia vintage era.

Speaking of which, when is Mattel going to do something with Dino-Riders? I'm pretty sure they have the license.

I went with the Battle Raptor.

Zodak is pretty much my least favorite character in the mythos.

[MrRoboto]

Zodak over SBR. Even though the SBR looks cool, Zodak has always been one of my favourites.

[Thrawn29]

I went with the Battle Raptor.

Zodak is pretty much my least favorite character in the mythos.

Pretty much. I Like his classic toy, but as a character he's about the worst the franchise has to offer. It's bad when he's defeating King Hsss twice, all the Evil Warriors and Skeletor in his own throne room, and fighting He-Man to a draw while He-Man begs him for his help.

Not a big fan of Zodak the character.

Didn't help that the writers literally just cut and pasted Mace Windu from Star Wars onto Zodak either.

[baronterror]

zodak is what finally got me to accept zodac as a whole, and the raptor is a (stupid) mount I never had nor ever wanted.

[Bri-Man]

zodak...wins.
