SDCC MOTUC Booth Statues Discussion

[Snake Hunter]

Someone have pics of each statue?

How many statues were?

I know Faker and Adam for sure.
Other were He-Man and He-Ro?

[dorrmann]

The statues weren't for sale.

[Jon-O]

The statues so far have been King Grayskull, Faker, He-Ro, and Prince Adam. They were giant and for display purposes only.

[JonWes]

In Order...I think. Wasn't there ever a regular He-man statue?

I don't think we've had a regular He-Man statue of yet.

Nope. No He-Man. Each statue was to promote the figure being offered at the convention...

Absolutely right. I've seen all of them in person, except for Faker, which a friend of mine got to see. Luckily I was able to order Old Blue online.

[He-Man123]

Maybe they will use it as He-Man next year for the 30th Anniversary.

Each time I see the redeco, I wonder who they'll be releasing each year that would fit the mold.

Not to be a stinker, but I totally called Adam last year (and I think a lot of others did too), just wasn't expecting the Orko twist. As He-Ro proves though, the statue can be redressed like the figures, so it's really just the pose that needs to make some kind of sense. I would think next year it's time for a regular He-Man, but either the exclusive would be different from the statue for the first time or, like Adam, he'd be packed with something else.

DOLPH He-Man? After all, Dolph was at Comic Con this year You have to wonder if Mattel and him crossed paths...

Very true. I remember a lot of us suspecting Adam. And you're right. He-Ro proves they can alter the clothing to suit the figure at hand. And now that they've done a two pack, anything's possible.

[Kevenn]

I think next year's exclusive will be NA He-Man - that way they can still use the same statue and still have a big name for the exclusive.

[Lewd_Squirrel]

Here's an interesting idea for the statue. Since they can tweak & alter it, why not make it Blade? & if you want to have a difference in the Blades, have the one sold at SDCC say SDCC on his swords.

[Ornclown]

This is exactly what I was thinking. The only problem with this is just how much longer we will have to wait to see NA He-Man!

Unless he is a SDCC exclusive version that is released after the initial figure. But that certainly hasn't been the case so far.....

[GrtEternal]

I would love to have those statues decorating my lawn!

Did anyone ever touch these? Were they plastic or hollow? Looks like King G is bronze but is he metal or just metallic?

He-Ro's cape and Adam's vest looks like cloth material! Aw, man. I want a closer look on these!

[Darkspecter]

There's a picture floating around that may have answered this. There's a picture of King Grayskull in pieces before they assembled him for SDCC. I remember specifically because it was strange and Tallstar freaked out because he saw She-Ra's sword.

I can't find the darn picture though.

EDIT: I found the pictures! They don't really answer the question though.

[Ulisses31]

I remember a strange statue also... not MOTUC but in the earlier 2002? Looking like He-Man but not He-Man...

[lorde trooper]

The first pic of Prince Adam with no general public around reminds me like a real Prince Adam is really there behind close doors and about to transform.

[zodak74]

Just got a whiff of this via instagram... SDCC madness hath begun!

[kevin]

awesome! SO excited for all the coming hullabaloo! lol.

[dorrmann]

Yay! The excitement begins.

[Tundra_Torque]

Awesome! I can't wait.

[geooco]

Very cool! His figure has suddenly been growing on me the last few days-- I must have sensed a San Diego zeitgeist.

[yodafreakmaster]

Man, I wish I could go!!!!! So Exciting!!!!!

BUT, I'd much rather go to Power Con Easy choice!
