[Master Joezilla]

I like this figure so much & way better then the mighty specter, you can lean something Scott.

[adol]

I like him. He looks cool, and fun. Congrats to the winner!

[Nemisythe]

They had all the entries redrawn. They said Bubblor was originally in crayon.

To me he was a a very close second!!!

[Eternian Poet]

I love this character & am looking forward to getting him. An embodied Castle Greyskull - how cool!

Very well conceived, great execution by the 4H. Congrats to the winner! (Who I now see is masque - well done!)

[michaelAschamp]

very nice concept congratulations! I hope the hair is becuase part of He-mans essence was used to create this golem like creature, that is a last ditch effort to protect the castle (the rock and the hard place ) so to speak!

Hey Toyguru just to "manage expectations", Mattel may want to monitor their own rules:

The Gangstor design was posted online before it was ever announced in February on the 14th which disqualifies this entry. The guy even tried to take it off his DA page but they keep records of everything so yeah. What say you to keep things "fair" ?

I have the power...
OF STARCH!





Vertigo Now why would you go and do somemthing like this? What business is it of yours anyway? Honestly dude you go too far trying to cost this guy his free 2013 subscription.

To prove a point about Mattel which the result will end up either validating or showing that they have the cojones to follow their own rules for once. To use a saying you once used last year about people cheating the subscription method by canceling cards "rules are rules" .

Some men just want to see the world burn.

Really, I couldn't actually say what I wanted to without it getting edited? Seriously? At least send me a PM saying what was actually wrong with what I said. Wow, just wow.

[Draego-Man]

Amazing!! I am in LOVE with this figure!!!

Amazing!! I am in LOVE with this figure!!!

OMG I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING, it's inspired by HHH entering Grayskull at WM 29!

[Swifty]

This looks like a great character, congrats to the winner (and the runner ups)! Can't wait to read the bio on this one.

Amazing!! I am in LOVE with this figure!!!

They seem to have changed his shoulders from Clawful textured ones to normal human ones. I like both version but I wonder why the did that. Also the hair seems to be slightly less bright wich I like even more. That guy is becoming more and more one of my absolutely favorite Motu figures ever.

[Alexx]

reminds me somewhat of my creation

The Knight of Grayskull

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b2...nightskull.jpg

Ah-HA! I was looking for that! So you're the one that did that! I was mentioning that earlier in the thread. That drawing was what got me interested in this sort of idea, so I'm glad we're getting something like it.

[Romadon]

Congrats!!! cool character!

[Buzzchuck]

I like his accessories. Still not sold on the character, but we will see what the bio and the Pixel Dan video do for me.

[Bearshow]

Now, we just need these guys :P:

Bear, you know that everyone here would buy those everyday plus Tuesday!

[Bearshow]

Thanks, vertigoink!

[He-Dad]

I agree....we wont get playsets so these are the next best thing!!!!

Amazing!! I am in LOVE with this figure!!!

I liked the Whiplash shoulders better. They seemed to flow better with the Rock Armor.

[Mr. Shokoti]

So now we need the famous Monster Walker designed in 1984!

That would be so awesome! That version of Snake Mountain has always been my favorite as goofy as it may be.

[Jo-Ro]

Vertigo Now why would you go and do somemthing like this?

Maybe to distract from the fact that neither Clamp Champ or Snake Face were shown.

[musclor]

I liked the Whiplash shoulders better. They seemed to flow better with the Rock Armor.

Yeah. Me too. I really hope the human shoulders aren't final. I thought the whiplash shoulders looked really cool.

[Mr. Shokoti]

Now that I'm seeing better pictures of him, I love him even more. I was honestly hoping the winner would be a beast of the werewolf variety, but this guy is just so cool looking. Congrats again Daniel!

I just noticed that this thread's title says "Greyskullman" rather than "Grayskullman"(like the way the Castle is usually spelled). Was that a mistake or is that what this guy's name will be?

[Sword-of-Grayskull]

This will probably be the first 30th Anniversary figure I'll buy. I just love the idea of King Grayskull's spirit in Castle Grayskull taking mobile form to once and for all end the tyranny of the Horde Prime (at least that's the way it will be in my continuity). I've had that idea for over a decade now in my own head canon; now I finally have the action figure for it!
