Has Mattel given an origin for Dupli-Cat? What is the story behind his creation?

The only thing official about it was the idea was officially stolen from Joe Amato, never giving him the credit he deserves, on the bio or information front no official bio or information.

I mean, what backstory he needs? Same as Faker I guess.
I mean, its an intreasting i idea for a bio, tie him into battle cats tribe somehow, who knows. Thin a character like this deserves more then a name.Originally Posted by Bear
facet, did You notice that Sultra appeared on the Faker/Dupli-Cat package art? Sounds like THERE is a springboard for speculation! [^D
"Listen Closely-- This is the TRUTH, No mere Myth!"
snake Mt has been already offered to shops and according to the description of the product it comes with a figure. I bet Sultra will be that figure.
Any particular reason why Sultra?
I could easier see one of the Snake Men, Snake Goddess, one of The Three Terrors, or someone who has thematic ties to the mountain.
Honestly, my guess would be Leo Skeletor. Easy redeco of a popular character in an obscure deco, tied to Snake Mountain, much like Sorceress to Grayskull. Much like Sorceress "goes with" Grayskull, Snake Mountain needs a Skeletor to sit on the bone throne.
It seems strange to feature Sultra as she was a member of the evil horde
I know this is all veering off-topic, but since it came up I could see if Snake Mountain were coming with a pack-in, it would probably be a Skeletor variant, since it is his stronghold and all. Any number of them could fit the bill: Snake Crusher Skeletor, Disco Skeletor, Blood Skeletor, Fire or Ice Armor Skeletor, Leo Skeletor, a Filmation Skeletor. While I wouldn't mind Sultra in the line, including that character with Snake Mountain kinda makes zero sense.
Yes i did notice that, now that would be a great exclusive, dont think that i would want it packed in with snake mtn, but something like frog-monger or koldarr, thru mattel creations.

Yeah i agree, guess they had to fit her in somewhere and that seemed better then having her side by side with Evil-lyn
Maybe they want make Sultra the "Sorceress" of Snake Mt.
An EvilLyn in "bat suit" could be fine roo.
Intreasting idea, skeletor some casts a spell on here that she, like the sorceress, cant leave.
Also in Dupli-Cat we can see the Robot Comet Warrior (Proto Rokkon and Stonedar) so I hope they will be soon or later made in Origins.
About Dupli-Cat, they should make a Bio for him ASAP.
Maybe Faker trying to mimic He-Man and have his own mount captured a cat beast and took him to Tri-Klops and Trap Jaw to make him a cyborg.
