    Origins Box Art Original (or semi original characters) in Classics style

    So I know classics is essential finished but some of these Original character that Axel and Francisco are fleshing out would totally fit in to the classics bucks, Some of these characters are new and some are from vintage box art, while others are concept art ideas from legends like Mark Taylor and Rebecca Taylor. I also want to discuss possibilities of future characters that are based on trends we are seeing from where these characters inspirations are coming from.

    Hercule Concept art for Ram Man

    Unnamed Cyclops Brand New Character from Axel for Origins

    Gray Warrior Random warrior from the Vintage Battle Ram Box Art



    Gray Warrior w/ Wyvern Random warrior from the Vintage Battle Ram Box Art


    Skeleton Warriors Take on 200X Skeleton Warriors

    skeletonwarrior2.jpg

    Mow-dar one of the 4 creatures that came out of the Obelisk in the vintage Mini Comic "The Obelisk"


    Frog Mongor (official) and Evil Wind Raider From the vintage dwell of souls artwork from castle grayskull and brand new idea for the wind raider

    Mimeo

    Snowman


    Comet Warrior

    Battle armor Teela or Warrior Women



    One could surmise that further inspiration will come from Vintage Box art drawings of unnamed characters, as well as stickers.

    One that comes to mind is the Blue werewolf beast from the Dwell of Souls Sticker from the Vintage Castle Grayskull Set, and another spider looking creature head in the bottom right. As we can see here Axel and Francisco expanded on The Frog creature from that sticker. I think it was established and correct me if I'm wrong that, the tentacle creature from that sticker, Is the Orlax, from the first Revelations comic.



    Also one could also surmise that since we got one of the 3 (4 if you count the Brazilian version of the comic) there are potentially 3 more characters we might see on some box art as well.

    We have most of the parts either out now or coming soon to make all of the good guys and I think we just need Clawful for the bad guys.

    Just need Jitsu and the T Force would be done. Webstor and Clawful are needed to round out the two evil factions.

    Just to add to your little list, a few you're missing:

    The Powercon Horde box also has concept art versions of Octavia and Dylamug
    Stratos card has Delora
    Eternian Palace Guard has a guardsman dressed like a Norman Warrior (from a minicomic I think?)
    Panthor box has Custar (concept art rhino centaur)
    Grayskull box has (I think) Sky High riding a Sky Sled
    Lord Faker box features concept art witch and concept art rock warrior robot
    LoP Mer Man box has Teela's unicorn
    Fisto card has the unproduced "tree house" playset
    And the Wind Raider box, in addition to the frog and gladiator, has the 3 giants from MYP and an evil version of Wind Raider

    Dylamug, thanks for filling this in, just for reference, i'm trying to highlight characters that havent officially been introduced into the mythos, so i will respond to each of theses individually

    The Powercon Horde box also has concept art versions of Octavia and Dylamug - in a sense they are different characters, the purple octopus women were spoken about in a Masters Mondays bio and concept Dylamug is new.
    Stratos card has Delora-she has already been established in MOTU, via the orignal mini comic, but its cool that she has the ability to fly, i like that concept
    Eternian Palace Guard has a guardsman dressed like a Norman Warrior (from a minicomic I think?)-we have seen these throughout
    Panthor box has Custar (concept art rhino centaur)- So Custar has been spoken about in at least two Masters Mondays Bios (Sword of Gaz and Staff of KA) but this is the first update drawing we have of him since his conceptual design. Preatty sure hes in this article
    Grayskull box has (I think) Sky High riding a Sky Sled- we already know who Sky High is.
    Lord Faker box features concept art witch and concept art rock warrior robot- Sultra has already been established via the Masters Mondays Bios, so she is no new introduction but the rock warrior is new and should be highlighted.
    LoP Mer Man box has Teela's unicorn- we know who Charger is
    Fisto card has the unproduced "tree house" playset- very cool nood to that playset yes, should be called out, will work on remedying that
    And the Wind Raider box, in addition to the frog and gladiator, has the 3 giants from MYP and an evil version of Wind Raider- the 3 giants were all established via 200x, so nothing new there, but i did highlight the new winder in this thread.

    So who is this exactly? At first I thought it was Extendar because that looks exactly like his face shield and head, but then I realized he is attached to those rocks to be a rock person of some sorts.

    So I'm not sure where this image comes from but the gut in the middle is most likely the same guy from the box art.

    Hmmm could be. I do know that image is from a mini comic, "Rock People to the Rescue" or something like that.

    Its another concept art character. I think the art is in the Power and Honor Catalog.

    Not Rock People from minicomics.

    I really want that Battle Armour Teela! Mattel really needs to start sprinkling less predictable characters into Origins.

    Just AMAZING art from that card
    plus that's the skeletor figure I had in my childhood, but yeah so cool to see ETERNIA right there in the middle, hopefully.....fingers crossed
    "The Most Powerful Man in the Universe..."
    "Where Hope seems Lost..."
    "Good Journey!"
    "I was summoned on the future..."
    "A Hero shall emerge to protect Eternia..."
    "A Hero will Rise..."
    "The Power of Grayskull Awakens......"
    "Let the Power Returns....!"

    Mattel can't just tease us with the towers of Eternia being featured so prominently as the centre piece of this epic card art (and it's the second appearance already) - they have to give us this set now.
