    MotU Monsters

    Modded some of my nonhuman Masters figures.



    I changed Clawful's feet to something more aquatic and put an extra Skeletor loincloth on him to tie him in as one of the Evil Warriors.

    For Buzz-Off, I gave him hands from Sun Man so that he could hold weapons better. Those pincer claws are somewhat annoying to put handheld weapons in.

    For Webstor I fitted him with Clawful's old feet as they felt more bug-like to me.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Just a simple gear swap this time. While doing errands I stuck my head into my local Toys R Us and found LoP Mer-Man on sale! Got him for like $9!



    Above: Mer-Man the ocean warlord and his right-hand mutant, Catfish!

    Swapped their weapons and armor around, giving Mer-Man a more consistent color palette and Catfish a more imposing presence through the redesigned Mer-Man armor.

    Catfish is actually an amazing name to give to a fake merman ( or a merman a person has designated not Thier " main" merman.)

    Or he could be an underwhelming or unenthusiastic merman, in which case he could be Meh-Man


    Anyway, I'm stealing your's, thank you

    Oh that's just sad.

    In other news, my Origins Stratos arrived in the mail. another clearance bargain.

    Sun Man's accessories go really nicely on Stratos!

    Reviled as this figure is, I honestly think he looks so much better than the grey one.

    No idea. I bought them from a Chinese seller on Shopee who does bootlegs of 1/12 weapons.

    Poor ol' Meat-Beat went under the knife... Er, hairdryer, once again.

    Head: He-Man, scalped and completely hand painted.
    Torso and Thighs: Triple H
    Arms: Fisto
    Knees: Horde Trooper
    Trunks and Boots: Tri-Klops
    Weapon: AE He-Man
    Armor: Faker

    The new ratchet knees make him nice and steady.

    MotU Origins Mosquitor with a leg swap.

    I always found it a bit weird that an insectile humanoid based on such a skinny bug would have such chonky feet.



    Nyoooommm~



    I really need to find a flight stand that can hold up chonky MotU figures.

    Oh, was that how he was flying?! I must be misremembering the old comic.

    I thought he had a jetpack!

    Well, mine has slimmer feet and a jetpack now.

    Maybe? I have a comic with him on the cover but haven't read it. But hey it's your Mosquitor and you do you.

    MotU Forearm Swapping

    Was making some modifications to my custom figures in the form of swapping forearms using a hair-dryer to heat the plastic so they can be popped out.

    To summarize:

    - The Terror Claws are now mounted on a more stable and solid body in the form of Andre the Titan.

    - Fisto has his namesake back; he felt kind of wrong without it.

    - Meat-Beat, my MotU mascot now has a fleshy larger right limb, similar to the character he was modelled after.

    All in all, I'm pretty happy with the results!

    I made some changes to Faker 2, and made The Rock more MOTU. Kane and a scrap Jitsu (not shown) got the left overs.

    Ooh, I rather like Kane as a horde robot! Dark Faker looks great; I think ye've managed to nail it!

    I've also been doing some modding. Found a guy selling out of box MotU WWE factory rejects for cheap and got some nice bits!

    Did a bit of swapping round and quite pleased with the results! Just need to give ultimate Warrior some new undies and he'll make a great tribal warlord King Greyskull!

    From L-R:
    • Angor, the Anti-Man, evil clone born of He-Man's darker impulses!
    • King Greyskull, primal predecessor of He-Man!
    • Mantenna, now with his shiny new M-printed Harness whose steel and red elements ties him in nicely with his subordinate, the Horde Trooper!

    Nifty! Wot parts did ye use? That dosn'ae look like a MotU WWE head.

    In other news I managed to grab another Faker at near RRP (slight markup) and a Terror Claws Skeletor online; gonna make my own flailing Faker to act as nemesis to my flying fists He-Man.



    - - - Updated - - -

    Got another Faker to make a sort of lieutenant for my growing legion of Evil Warriors, mixing parts from him and Terror Claws Skeletor. I always found the weird metallic sports bra looked weird on Skeletor yet looks oddly fitting for Faker and all in all pretty happy with the results.

    There's this cool Etsy store MadeInKaiserstuhl based in Germany that I've ordered and received some cool custom pieces. His prices are reasonable and the quality and design is v good. Here's a pic of some of the items I got (wings, stands, weapons rack, etc)

    Thanks for the heads up. This guy has some great stuff. Loving the Webstor spider legs and the Roton flight stand especially.

    Last time, I swear!

    I know I've posted every tiny tweak and modification I've made to my favored creation, but I think I'm finally happy with the results!

    In my crazed efforts to make a MotU dolly of my lopsided Flesh Golem hero Sakhmed, I realized it was time to return to the beginning.

    Having located a new MotUWWE John Cena head from a factory reject I bought for cheap online, I stripped the original paint work that gave it this creepy uncanny valley quality. I've never been a huge fan of toys modelled after real people, but I came to realize that Cena came the closest to Sakhmed's facial structure and despite the slight difference in skin tone, remained the best candidate to bring my creation to life.

    Head: MotWWEU John Cena
    Torso and Thighs: MotWWEU Triple H
    Left Arm: John Cena
    Right Arm: MotWWEU Andre the Titan and Triple H
    Knees: Horde Trooper
    Loincloth and Boots: Tri-Klops
    Weapons: Faker and AE He-Man
    Armor: Faker

    With this, I finally have a figure of my lopsided flesh golem to stand amidst my collection of pantsless space barbarians!



    And once again, his bio and oh-so riveting origins story:

    Meat-Beat

    Real Name: Faker 57
    Allegiance: Independent

    One of many robot replicas of He-Man produced by Skeletor, Faker 57 was battling against He-Man when it was flung into The Fountain of Truth, sinking into its bottomless depths.

    As it sank, it was given a glimpse of the truth of Eternian existence, driving it (by AI standards) quite mad.
    When asked, it speaks of "The Child", a seemingly omnipotent being that determines the fate of all Eternians, and that the fate of every single creature, biological or mechanical was predetermined by this creature's unfathomable whims.

    As time passed, others began to notice that Faker 57 was behaving oddly, muttering to itself when idle and sometimes emerging from Snake Mountain's underground archives. Seemingly harmless quirks, or so they thought.

    Two months later, on a routine check of the robotics lab, Tri-Klops examined an unusually bloody workbench, only to discover a smashed tracking unit and defused chest bomb.
    The kind commonly found in Faker units.

    With its cloak wrapped around it and cowl over its exposed skull, Faker 57 set off through the shadowlands.

    Still possessing its programmed hatred of He-Man, Faker 57 made modifications to its facial structure and steel limbs before wrapping itself in a crudely-stitched shell of cured leathers, all so it no longer has to look upon the hero's face. Looking at its augmentations and makeshift hide, it renamed itself Meat-Beat.

    A gruesome parody, Meat-Beat sets off across Eternia, eager to carve its own legends and prove that it is more than just a pale imitation of Eternia's greatest protector.

    I'm thinking Demagogue.

    Or if ye wanted a more MotU-ish name, maybe High Priest Steelskull?
