    Greetings from New Hampshire!

    Hello everyone, I grew up on He-Man as a kid, and regret no longer having my old Castle Grayskull, Stridor, BattleCat, He-Man, Beast Man, Mantenna, Two Bad, and I'm sure other figures that I'm just forgetting.

    My neighbor had Skeletor and Snake Mountain, and some other stuff, so I never got those since we would play together. I specifically remember playing with these figures on my parents deck when I was 4 years old with my neighbor. Ah, memories.

    Anywho, I ducked out of He-man for more G.I. Joe, Transformers, Go Bots, and M.A.S.K. in the late 80's, so it was quite a surprise to learn about the New Adventures of He-Man, and the series that I ... for a lack of a better word, dodged.

    When the 200X series came out, I was dragged right back in, bought myself a Skeletor and Panthor, and randomly, Orko... I have those I'm fairly certain, SOMEWHERE ( I've been looking through the basement for a few nights now for them ), and want to get back into collecting the line.

    At least the newer figures are decently cheaper than my other big line I had been collecting which was S.H. Figuarts Dragonball Z figures.

    While I look at the Snake Mountain from Super7 longingly, I just can't bring myself to dump the $600, but that isn't that much of a barrier, more so it's a problem of the space that it takes up. I mostly just have space for things in IKEA Detolf shelves, and the space above them. So it's a bit limiting.

    Looking forward to building the Mega Construx Castle Grayskull that is coming in soon though.

    Less on my history, I'm a newer collector that is looking forward to the new Mattel offerings, since I kind of missed the bus on the Classics line unfortunately. However I do still want to look into maybe grabbing some select figures to try and set up some figure photography with.

    Thanks for the kind words all.

    On the subject of reading the Rules, and the Marketplace stuff, I'm already ahead of you all, as I had already donated $10 to take care of that.

    I'm totally on board with a donation to the server to help out with the costs, and I actively agree with the goal of keeping the spam issues down.
