Greetings from a newbie

Hello,

I am a big classic MOTU fan ever since I was little. I especially remember reading those mini comic/story books as a kid and I was fascinated by the wonderful stories. I have been visiting this amazing site since the 2002 line came out, but I never had the courage to join any on-line forum because I am an awkward, introverted geek. However, after reading about news of King Greyskull and the new MOTUC line, I decided to join this wonderful community to show my support and my absolute excitement for the new line. I hope the new line will be a huge success and I will see many of my favourite MOTU characters make a wonderful comeback.

Since I am new to this community, please kindly be patient with me and point me to the right direction if I make any stupid mistake.
Thank you all.

Welcome to the boards, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here. And have fun.

PS I think we're pretty much all geeks around here.

Welcome! I'm pretty positive you'll like it here, you did a wise thing by joining in

Hey Arm-Ore Welcome to the forums.

YAYE! More Introverted Geeks!

ONE OF US! ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

welcome onboard dude.

Wow. Thank you all for the warm welcomes!
I thought that this thread would die quietly (with no reply) in a month or so. I am so happy to see kind people reaching out to a newbie like me and making me feel like home. Thank you very much.
I just read the thread about the MattyCollector.com and saw the new pictures of He-Man and Beast Man. They look even better than what I have pictured. It is truly wonderful. I am so happy to see my favourite toy line coming back again! I hope that you are all enjoying this exciting and wonderful time just like I am.
Hope I will see you around in other threads.

Glad to have you here! Like you - I really enjoyed the mini-comics as a kid and played with my figures based off of those stories more so than the Filmation cartoon. I think I still read those comics too often (at least that is what my wife tells me).

Where are you from? I noticed that you didn't put your location in your profile.

Hello, nice to meet you, Midwinter. I am from Canada. Those mini-comics are wonderful, aren't they? I was hooked on He-Man before I saw any cartoon. So before I met Prince Adam, Duncan and Orko, the world of MOTU to me was the world depicted in those early mini-comics. I especially love the first four books illustrated by Alcala (and the comic that comes with Point Dread). The removable armor of He-Man and the two halves of the Power Sword depicted in those stories made the toys that much more fun to me as a kid (take off He-Man's power armor and even Mer-Man can beat him!). Even though I was also into the TV series and the new interpretation of MOTU world (with Prince Adam as He-Man), those original mini-comics will always have a special place in my heart. That is why I am so excited about MOTUC line. Looking at the pictures of new Mer-Man, Zodac and the gang just brings back lots of good memories.

Thank you for your post and hope to see you in other threads.

Well you are in good company here and its always good to talk to people who enjoy the He-man universe. Enjoy your time here, i know i do!!
