I hope not too many people hate this character. But as of right now, i'm the happiest ive ever been, so it'll take alot to get me down...

Huge congratulations!!! And I love the figure! I'm not 100% sold on the hair, but absolutely love every other detail on him. Very cool design, man.

**Draego-Man** · July 13, 2012, 11:05am

Awesome figure, really bad name. Better names...

Wraith of Grayskull

Phantom Grayskull

Poltergrayskull

My brother what a great idea! congratulations on this awesome design, it truly deserves a spot on the line!. I will be buying him for sure. I guess you have opened the floodgates of imagination with such a crossover. My hat its off!!

**Killian** · July 13, 2012, 11:08am

I wonder if he'll be King Grayskull's spirit housed in a body crafted from the castle walls?

Or maybe when someone evil gets to the core of the Castle's power, the magic of Grayskull transforms him into a slave for the Sorceress?

**Beastmaster** · July 13, 2012, 11:09am

I love him!!
The face looks great!

It is very much deserved, Daniel..

So what was your bio?

**PusViper** · July 13, 2012, 11:10am

That figure will probably be the closest thing to a Castle Grayskull, Mattel will ever produce.

**Hunter Knight** · July 13, 2012, 11:11am

Itook a snapshot of the original article is on my facebook wall, for those who want to read it.

**Chronicler** · July 13, 2012, 11:13am

I have to say, I always suspected the winning entry would be off the wall. But this... this is the oddest thing I have ever seen. I'm simultaneously repulsed and attracted to it. I NEED one of those in my shelf.

And therein I see the genius of it and why it won.

**dedset13** · July 13, 2012, 11:13am

Congrats Daniel!!!

I think he looks really cool and is a great concept. I don't care for the name but other than that he is quite awesome.

**Dynamo of Eternia** · July 13, 2012, 11:14am

I think he needs his own theme song!!!

There's a skull who lives the life of danger...
Part castle and part man, 'couldn't be any stranger!
He grabs his weapons off the shelf, yells "by the power of" himself!
If you cross him, he will cause you lots of sorrow!

Castle Grayskull Man! Castle Grayskull Man!
Check out how he IS the power, and at a future hour - he will be reviewed by Pixel Dan!

**Benedict Judas Hel** · July 13, 2012, 11:14am

Let me offer my darkest congratulations to masque. You won the contest fair and square.

As for the figure, I like it. My own slightest complaint would be the yellow hair. I would have preferred it a green color and moss-like to signify this walking embodiment of Castle Grayskull (if that is what it's supposed to be).

Or if this is another "power-up" of He-Man as a last line of defense when he calls upon the power of Grayskull, then I guess the blonde hair would make a little bit more sense (since this is an armored form of He-Man with the bricks of Castle Grayskull surrounding him and the swords coming to his aid).

I'm not sure... this feels like a joke. "Meh" character, not really original, and certainly not as awesome as Draego-Man.

congratulations to the winner but I dont like the figure.
its pretty meh. c'mon, a warrior with a castle grayskull head?
dis you see the man at weapons custom by he mike? thats fit into motu perfectly and its all a matter of style and to be sober.

Im disappointed about him, I mean, and thats just my opinion, in maybe more than a thousand entries that one was the best? if I choose one he man fan and say to him "give me character" and he put out that one I would be really impressed but again, just because i was expecting something from just one brain.

**mekaneckpain** · July 13, 2012, 11:15am

"He grabs his weapons off the shelf, yells "by the power of" himself!"

LOL! That's pretty good.

This is also an extremely good point Delth, but prepare to be attacked for giving your opinion.

**Killian** · July 13, 2012, 11:16am

It'd be cool if CastleGrayskullMan was a minion of some evil person who has conquered the Castle...

**Skeeter** · July 13, 2012, 11:16am

Enough. You can't ripoff something that is ALREADY an unlicensed ripoff. Study your law.

**hauke** · July 13, 2012, 11:16am

I really like the figure. Congratulations for winning. I hope they give him quite an epic bios.

You're a genius! I'll change the card name in The Castle Grayskull Wraith... it's...

... it's.... perfect!

Poltergrayskull

Not sure what his bio is going to be , but right now i'm thinking for me Skeletor had Evil-Lyn steal a small pice of stone from Castle Grayskull and with their combined magic skeletor turned it into a creature who not only serves only him but has the ability to gain skeletor entry into Castle Grayskull and all it's secrets.

Out of curiosity, was this the character that supposedly got leaked last week?

**Hordaiquiri** · July 13, 2012, 11:18am

Congratulations to masque~ Not really keen on the hair, but I see why it's that color. He'll be quite a treat at the end of the 30th line.

**Draego-Man** · July 13, 2012, 11:19am

Thought of another potential name... Grayskull Reaper

Personally, I am going to be calling him... Phantom Grayskull

Hey masque, any chance we can convince you to change the name at this point!?

Otherwise, a big congratulations!!!

**Eterniandreams** · July 13, 2012, 11:20am

Not too crazy about the head, but like the rest. I made a simular shield for my KG.
I might stick a anoter head on it like a faceles one or a nurmal skull head.

Or a King Grayskull head and you have a KG variant.
