Hey all! New to the group.

What’s up everyone, Boneface here! I’m from the great state of Iowa , USA! I’ve had a life long love affair with everything MOTU since I can remember. I vividly recall that first time going into a Toys R Us as a youngster seeing that glorious wall of MOTU figures and I was HOOKED! I watched the cartoons religiously and LOVED the live action movie even with its flaws. The Skelator transformation scene at the end of the movie will be etched into my brain forever! Naturally, as a kid I gravitated to the bad guys as they were sooo cool with the bright colors and weapons. Outside of the heavy hitters Skelly and Hordak, some of my personal favorites are Trap Jaw, Webstor, Grizzlor and of course Stinkor!

Flash forward and I am now a 41 year old timer. I recent found my bin of MOTU figs that I thought my parents had tossed or sold. Turns out they were stored in the attic area of my folks garage. My eyes lit up like Christmas morning as I made the discovery. There they were after all those years and were still in good condition (not sticky or breakdown of the plastics). It was that time I decided I was going to try to build my collection of vintage figures 100% complete with weapons and accessories. With what I had and have added so far I would say I’m about 75% which isn’t too shabby (my wallet hates me right now…LOL!). I’m happy to say that as of last week I finally made my first “big boy” purchase and scored a 100% complete Scareglow complete with comic as well. He’s glorious!

I may not get to 100% total completion on the line but going to try to get as close as I can. I’m also currently collection the new Origins line as well as Revelations which are both cool. I prefer the Origins just because they are so close to the original line but can’t ignore how cool the Revelations line has been. I will say that the He-Man and Skelator did were a big swing and a miss.

Well, I’ve done enough rambling for now. I just wanted to introduce myself to all and say I’m looking forward to checking out the forums and discussions! I’ll sign off with my favorite MOTU lines from good old Boneface himself….”Come in Randor…You royal boob!”

Welcome to the board.
You certainly are one of the fortunate ones to still have your old MOTU figures. Wish I had mine. But I'm getting started again.
Enjoy it here
