    Hello from Australia

    Hello everyone! Long-time He-Man fan here. Been on Org on and off since about 98'. Currently hoping to create a He-Man / MOTU room (WIP). Have been fighting cancer this year, which has been indescribable. Excited to see MOTU future with Super7 post Matty. Look forward to engaging in threads!

    Thanks for the welcome dedset13, HarryCanyon and Dorrmann!

    It was a shock at 35 to hear that I had advanced cancer, but I'm fighting this to win no matter what!

    MOTU is an excellent distraction. Even after all these years it's a fictional universe that is so easy to immerse yourself in and forget about everything else.

    Oh man.

    BUT, to hear you are fighting it to win is awesome! How goes your treatment so far, and how far advanced is/was it, if I may ask?
    Hope to see you at Power-Con, America's Mightiest Toy Convention!

    It's a stage 3/4. I haven't actually had a confirmation on the exact stage, but the chemo is working. Had my seventh session today. Cheers.

    Love that image of He-Man! Thanks for the welcome A fellow Aussie! Where do you hail from?

    I love most of the Mastersverse. Love the figures, filmation, mini comics, 87' movie, 200x. Not so much the NA cartoon (although the updated 4H Classics takes on NA figures have been fantastic!) or the recent comic reboot, but every spinoff has it's fans and anything that has helped He-Man stay in the public consciousness is a very good thing. Still holding out hope for a new cartoon, movie or live action tv series at some point. But enough media out there to fill the void...for now

    Wishing you all my strength, Goatman!

    Is your WIP, a character after your user name?

    You have taken the first step to true power.

    Now... answer me this, Master of the Universe, who is your favorite character?

    Thank you so much for the warm welcome and well wishes

    Fav has to be He-Man. But also quite fond of Goatman (hence the username).

    What about yourself? Who is your favorite character?
