    Hey!

    Hi everyone!

    Years ago I was a member of He-Man.org but gave up collecting after the 200X line. I was lucky enough to be part of the group who got a 200X Keldor purchase opportunity back in the day from this site. Prior to that, I’d been a child when the caartoon premiered and my parents had a knack for spoiling the only child, so they’d bought me the entire line of toys (up to the New Adventures) mostly based on good behavioral promises. Haha!

    I’m back and want to take on doing what I should have years ago, and starting a collection of loose and complete Classics as well as the Vintage line. My childhood vintage are filled with dings, scuffs, marks, and a million signs of years of great play adventure. I have a few Classics from the days I attended SDCC in my late 20’s, but as I come back I’m very confused about which Super7 continued the line, and the difference between what appears to be Super7 original style, Filmation, and Club Grayskull. I know it’ll be a long journey and costly in many cases, but I’m hoping to network with some fans here who can help toss me back into the waters as I figure out how and where to pre-order, and stay on top of all released items.

    I just sold most of a 3000 piece Funko pop collection, and look forward to returning to the toys that started it all for me!

    Anyone willing to give me the crash course on Super7? I’ve ready multiple sites and I’m just not getting what’s considered the continuation and what’s not, and the figure size of each line. And with the He-Man and Skeletor reveal at NYCC, I’m wondering if those are Classic continuation as well.

    On behalf of He-Man.org's admin, staff, and moderators, allow me to extend an official Hello and welcome to He-Man.org, EternianBasic!!

    We're glad to have you join our site and we hope you have a fun time discussing Masters of the Universe and Princess of Power here.

    Please be sure to read over the rules for posting and interacting on He-Man.org. And if you have any questions, you are welcome to send me a PM for more information.

    If you want to buy and trade you will need to upgrade your account to have access to the Marketplace. Please click here and read the section entitled "What are the limitations for users with Gmail/AOL/Yahoo accounts?" for more information. For details on how the upgrading system works click here.

    Hello, welcome back!! Do you remember your original username? If so, perhaps we could find that account and get you back to your original account. The Classics line consists of the Classics that Mattel released and the Club Grayskull line of figures. Super7 has basically continued both of the lines. Then, there are the Ultimates, which are reissues of some of the Classics figures with extra accessories and a different color for Ram Man. And Super7 just announced that Club Grayskull He-Man and Skeletor will be getting Ultimates releases. That's a quick rundown, but you'll find all the info you need here!! As you know, we have the best He-Fans and She-Ravers around and as always, we have great ongoing MOTU and POP discussions, so feel free to join in the conversation!!

    Enjoy your time here and welcome!!

    I wish I could remember my old username, and I’ve searched my email and don’t seem to have any record of it. I’m looking forward to jumping in again though, and stick around this time.

    Thanks for all the information. I made my donation yesterday, so I believe if I understand correctly, that I’ll be able to access the marketplace with the $20.00 donation level. Is that correct? I appreciate the run down on the figures as well, I found Big Bad Toy Store’s pre-orders as well, so I feel like I’m off to a good start.

    Welcome back!
    I think a quick read over the MOTUC Discussion forum will bring you up to speed on most everything. The quick and dirty is Mattel halted on MOTUC, and gave the license to Super7 who has continued producing the action figures for the past couple of years.
    Hope to see you at Power-Con, America's Mightiest Toy Convention!
