Origins: General News

[mizterfish]

I had no idea Duplico even went up for sale. Was MC the only way of obtaining him?

I got him from Mattel Creations the same day Dark Lyn went up for sale. He was gone in a few minutes.

Paulmartstore was the only other place I’ve seen him available.

Is he supposed to start showing up soon? I thought that retail abandoned this line?

Nah, that's just gossip and some folks jumping to broad conclusions about the health of the line based on what they're seeing (or in some cases, not seeing) locally. Add ToyGuru's youtube b.s. and it's easy to think retail abandoned the line.

He's also a Wal-Mart exclusive, it just hasn't been officially released through them yet.

Here are some less than helpful links, maybe one day they'll become more helpful.

Here’s an even more less-than-helpful link. This is the link that some think will be Moss Man:

https://www.walmart.com/ip/seot/1632...egistryType=WL

In reality, it could also be one of the upcoming deluxe figures since I expect Mossy to be a higher price than what’s listed.

Leak Fang Or

[He-Metayer]

I have to admit I was thinking of passing on Moss Man. But seeing that packaging and the fact he comes with a minicomic (I am trying to get at least one copy of every minicomic in Origins) has changed my mind. He looks great!

[Dinobot]

I have two questions about the Moss Man boxart:

1. I am beyond stoked to see Red Shadow! It gives me hope that we'll see some of the Classics mini-comic characters in the line. However, considering his name, shouldn't he be...you know...red?

2. What's the deal with Pythos? I remember the art some time back, but was he a bio character or an original Axel creation?

High Priest Pythonus, created by Axel and another collaborator, and named by Penny Dreadful.

Yeah I'm confused by that post lol.

[Dinobot]

Apparently, someone on Twitter showed a pic of an unreleased Masters of the WWE ring playset. There was a pile of MOTUO figures next to it. One was Fang-Or. I don't know anything more than that.

Night Stalker has also allegedly been badly photographed. It's all at a German event I gather.

[Bear]

Red Shadow, Fang-Or, every day we're getting closer to making dream reality.



SPECTORMOBILE

You know with a unique comic, cool boxart, both gimmicks intact, extra hand, head, and numerous other extras, Moss Man now feels more like Deluxe than other supposed Deluxe toys.

[Sketchy Skeletor]

And now the boys from Brazil are saying Lodar and Hawke. But remember, the line is dying. Remember!

[Dylamug]

You guys do remember it's April Fools Day, right?

[Brasco]

They wouldn’t be that cruel would they?

[MCX-Eternia]

New for 24! Adora, Dylamug, Octavia and Sea Hawk!

[kentNelson]

So today has been leaked:

Fang-Or
Night Stalker
Lodar
Hawke


Today is April's Fool but Fang and Night have been alleged come from Germany.
And Lodar, Fang Or again and Hawke come from a brazilian Telegram channel.

Do they celebrate April's Fool on Germany and Brazil?

BTW: Fang-Or will appear in Snake Face minicomic, Night Stalker appeared on Fisto's cardback and it's an easy repaint. Lodar trademark was renewed month ago by Mattel along Captain Glenn and Battle Chariot.

Will they be legit or just a prank?

About Classics, there are several characters who would be incredible for Origins:

*Red Shadow, an easy repaint of Moss Man/Beast Man with a new head and, I hope, his pet Hop-Or.
*All the new Snake Warriors: Reptilax (already seen), Stretch Neck, Lady Slither, Quick Flick, High Prest Pythonus, Vypor and Golden Rod.
*Great Black Wizard. I thik this one wpuld be a succesful. His designs is supercool and he is a kind of Skeletor of Preternia.
*Lord Choloh
*King of Styx
*Demo-Man
*Prototype He-Man, bare feet and with a horned helmet.

Night Stalker has also allegedly been badly photographed. It's all at a German event I gather.

The thing is... that Night Stalker very much looks like Classics, not a repainted Origins Stridor.

And Classics Peekablue is caught in that cage thing that's supposedly a WWEternia unproduced set... sooo... the photos seem kinda sketchy.

That's why I'm full of doubt about these and where they supposedly came from.

[Bear]

Wait, where did we see Lodar and Hawke?

[anytimepally]

Keep in mind that last April 1 was when Gwildor and Spector Origins figures "leaked," so this is not a new thing.

[Orko's Magic Hat]

Yeah could be an April Fools joke, although that Fang-Or looks pretty impressive (if a little custom-y) but the card back artwork looks pretty legit, so who knows?

True, but they were just on a list, today we're seeing figure teases, although could be customs or mock ups...

idW if Fang-Or is April's Fool stuff or it legit but one thing is real: He will appear in Snake Face minicomic so it gives credibility to the joke/no-joke.

[Sketchy Skeletor]

The problem is I don't know how many times I've seen April Fools Day 'leaks' etc turn out to be real with various lines. April is when a lot of companies' products get going for the new financial year.

In this case we could do with a German fan saying if there actually is some event going on, or if the usual sources are just parroting others who might be pranking. AFD is SO annoying because it feels like most people ignore it in this day and age but a handful still think it's somehow funny. With toys it's never funny because you always just want the toys!
