Both are pretty nice I like how Ram-man's references his original mini comic

**geooco** · October 12, 2012, 04:07pm

There was a gold powersword in the case today, I think it was a sneak peek clue ala seeing Champ Clamp's clamp at Powercon.

Dare? Oo-Lar? NA He-Man? Interesting.

Mmm...another he-man variant? Seeing that we already got king he-man for 2013 I was hoping they had reserved the only variant slot remaining to some other character

Thanks Veebs. Interesting bio on Ram Man--they used the minicomic origin and kept Ram Man as meeting He-Man before the others, which clashes with MYP. While I like MYP in the bios, I prefer minicomic origins for most of the early characters.
More enchanted armor nonsense, but whatever. He'll always just be a human battering Ram to me--no magic required. =)

I was thinking NA He-Man, but now I'm really hoping Oo-Lar.

Isn't it the one that comes with the 30th anniversary DVD?

Spray painted gold or vac metal? I honestly have no idea who that might be.

Isn't a gold power sword coming as the exclusive in the DVD box set?

My bad....yeah what he said!

**jackstatic** · October 12, 2012, 04:21pm

As stated, im guessing the gold powerswords from the dvd set (not that we couldnt customize one ourselves).
Bios are pretty sweet

**oulala** · October 12, 2012, 04:22pm

It has to be said: Netossa has the best bio ever.

Yep, right! I forgot about it!

**geooco** · October 12, 2012, 04:27pm

The powersword was spray painted gold, not vac metal. I suppose it very well could be the one that comes with the DVD set, though the DVD set was not in the case with it.

Oh dear ... Krass and Vivian

**krosfyah** · October 12, 2012, 04:40pm

question is the vivian name from something? because why not have her real name be Natasha? I always thought Netossa was a clever take on that name and it makes sense why someone would call her netossa from natasha. they see her skills and say "Natasha?? more like Netossa!!" (lame I know but just showing how it makes sense over "Vivian? they should call you Netossa" then everyone just looks confused.

) Krass is a terrible name too

but his bio is pretty good, not a fan of his 'enchanted' armour though.

**Scorpia** · October 12, 2012, 04:40pm

I really wish the POP characters' bios would allude more to their lives on Etheria. What's Netossa's story? The bio could have at least alluded to her arrival in 'When Whispering Woods Last Bloomed' and, whilst I understand Mattel will want to distance themselves from anything likely to cause controversy, Netossa's companionship with Spinnerella could have given us more of an insight into her character and WHY fighting for freedom is so important to her.

I like that she's a marksman (woman...). I like that she hasn't been made so integral and vital to the plot. I like that they didn't just stuff her in the 'laser gate to Eternia' to fill space on the page. But I kinda wanted something more, just as I did with Frosta's.

Ho-hum.

Well, given her skin color I would find a bit odd for her to have Russian origins

**Krueger** · October 12, 2012, 04:49pm

I like Ram-Man's bio.

**Berserker79** · October 12, 2012, 05:01pm

Krass also means bada##, phat, sweet, cool in german...

**Mern-Ra** · October 12, 2012, 05:06pm

Names:

I like Krass.

And Netossa's first name sounds like a female character in an old school black sit-com and her last name feels like a female character in one from today.

**Beastmangler** · October 12, 2012, 05:12pm

Krass (crass) also means unrefined, stupid, oafish in English.

It's not exactly an obscure word either. Hate it!
