Great review! I'm glad I got one as well. However would love to see Mattel bring the Snake Men into the Masterverse lineup and Fang-Or needs to in there for sure!
Thanks for watching! Congrats on also getting a Fangor Figure! I can see the Snakemen coming to the Masterverse maybe next year! They are focusing on the New Eternia and Revalation figures at this time! But Snakemen would be awesome, and many people want them in Masterverse 👍
Yeah, i heard other comments say he was up for three hours or more. When I bought mine at the start. I went back for a second one, about a half hour later, and it was sold out! I'm happy to hear you did manage to get one, too! Thanks for checking out this review as you have with others! Hopefully you get your figure soon👍
@@Themanchlid I was watching and checking the site every 10mins and it was up for about 2 3/4 hours before selling out. Everyone that needed one could get it i felt, it wasnt as slow as 'Space Sumo' but was no Koldar.
Thanks for stopping in to check out the review! Yeah, I had a little misfortune with breaking my arm joint. I have broken many figures' joints in the arms or legs over the years. Usually with Neca or Mcfarlane if they get stuck. This is the first time I have seen it with Origins. It broke really easy. Usually, if I discover a stuck joint, I then use a blow dryer to heat and loosen it. But this joint was too tight and brittle. I was gonna show how I repaired everything step by step. But I just figured I would describe it quickly and show how I put the arm back on.
Thanks, man! I'm trying to push forward every day! I appreciate your support support and comments! I'm gonna try to start reviewing that new spawn I got👍

Can’t wait to get mine!! I’m still waiting on Dark-Lynn… but that’s the only time Mattel have let me down. Pleased you got yours mate👍 great video! Take care🇬🇧👍
Thanks for watching! Mattel creations is still shipping these out! So it may take some time. Hopefully, you get yours soon! Many people already got the Dark lyn a while ago. Maybe they are waiting for more from the factory. Or is it time issues with the shipping! You take care as well, friend 👍
Mine came with a really hard knee articulation😅 but thankfully with hot water I was able to fix it. The loincloath of fangor is not a regular one, it's a recolor of Rattlor's one
Nice pick ups! Hard are loose joints are common. Hot water helps a lot. But sometimes the joint can have a bad plastic QC issue and break with very little moment like mine did. I recieved a few other comments with other people's Figure also breaking at the elbow joint. Yeah the loincloth is just a Rattlor repaint. I didn't notice that at the time. The paint really makes it look like something different unless you compare Rattlor against Fangor which I did later and noticed that's all it was! Thanks for watching and I'm glad to hear your figures tight joints worked out good with hot water!👍
Yeah, I saw that skirt! I'm guessing it's removable, and the tail can be used for other figures. It wouldn't make sense not to. But I haven't seen any up close images what that piece looks like off!
Awesome review!! I also tend to have some issues with the legs of the origins figure such as Stinkor , although the legs did not break they are so loose that he doesn't stand well. There are other figures with loose joints but so far none have completely broken off.
Thanks for watching as always! The loose joints aren't usually the problem where breakage occurs! It's the joints that are frozen or stiff. The best thing to do is put them in hot water or use a blow dryer and try to soften them up. Then gently try to move them. Mine Fangor arm was frozen, and I did use much force to move it. It snapped very easily. I also heard of some other people's Fangor figures arms also breaking like mine did. As far as loose joints. Just use clear nail polish in and around the joint. Work the joint back and forth and let it dry. You can clean the excess with a rubbing alcohol pad. If the joint is still loose, just apply a second and third coat after each has dried!👍
The overall look and design is really cool! I know he's just reusing many parts. But something with the paint, head and fangs make him stand out! Thanks for stopping in buddy! I hope your Fangor arrives soon👌
At SDCC Mattel said ALL of the remaining vintage figures will be sold on MattelCreations. There are still 15 figures from the original line + all these new characters. The Filmation animation versions are going to retail from now on. We will be dealing with MattelCreations a lot more going forward.
Mattel said that all the future Vintage inspired Origins concepts and main figures are gonna only be sold at Mattel Creations going forward. The new Filmation and Masterverse figures will still be going to certain retailers. I guess it's easier and most cost effective for Mattel now to sell many of these figures!
@somarriba333 Well, it's possible places like BBTS sometimes get and stocks certain exclusives after a while. But you have to go check out their site and Motu Pre sales every now and then to see if they have any extras and put your order in before they sell out. The Origins isn't easy to collect, unfortunately, as the line goes forward with certain figures.
Yeah, thier still shipping out orders or what's available at this time in their warehouse, I guess! Europe for a week! Nice! Have a safe trip, and thanks for stopping by👍
That great to hear your figure finnaly shipped! He looks awesome in hand! I also hope all the Origins figures ship as quick from Mattel Creations going forward! Thanks for stopping in and sharing your toy updates!👍
Wow! I'm sorry to hear that in your figure as well. I have had many broken joints in other figures over the years. But not Origins. This was a first! Someone else told me I should have contacted Mattel, of course. I didn't want to deal with the aggravation, and I had a feeling they didn't have more. So I just used a small drill bit. I drilled a hole directly in the center of the bicep and about a half of inch in. Then, about a quarter inch in the broken piece. I used a small aluminum trim nail. Cut the head off and push it in with vice grips. Then, I twisted the forarm on like I showed, and it can still come off again. I also still have all the articulation. Sometimes, drilling ruins the joint, and all you do is put the pin in and set it in one position. It's tricky. But that's how I repaired mine. Thanks for watching, and hopefully, Mattel can get another one or go on eBay. Theres plenty of fangors. But more money. Or try to repair your arm like I described. It's already broken. What do you have to lose. Just practice in something else plastic with a small bit and make sure to get a steel reinforced piece that fits tight. You can also get a thick paper clip and cut a straight piece instead of a nail. Use small wire cutters. You can get them at a hobby shop or dollar store.
Great! Thanks for the heads up. Looks like this is going to be a thing with this figure. I'll try to be careful with mine. Stick it in boiling water before trying to move it. *IF* Mattel ever bothers to ship mine. 🙄
I really think this is a great design. Great combination of colors. Super glad I got 1 and it wasn't to bad of an experience. Like you mentioned I hope future orders go this well too.
The design for this Origins Fangor is really cool. Even though he shares a lot of parts with other figures, he still looks like something completely new because of the head and colors. Mine shipped really fast! I hope you get yours very soon as well! It would be great if all Mattel Creations figures would ship this smoothly! Thanks for watching 🤝
@bishopmaddox Thanks for subscribing and your support! Yes, RUclips unsubsribes people for no reason from time to time. It's weird! I just subscribed to your channel if that helps. Thanks for the update on that info and stopping in!👍
@bishopmaddox No problem, bro! I always like to help and try to respond as much as I can. I'm also limited because of disabilities and severe neurological and Tendon damage I have all over my body from a chemical injury I had a decade ago. I do what I can!👍
They definitely did a great job with this Fangor Figure. The head looks a lot like the Classics. I also always liked Tung Lashor as a kid and even now! Thanks for stopping in to check out the review 👍
I'm so glad you got one, I'll have pay evil Bay as it's to hard to get one from Australia Look after yourself and your family Love from Western Australia
Thanks for stopping on to check out the review! Yeah, Fangor was very limited. I know all too well about eBay sales and price! I buy many things there that i can't find nowhere else! Take care of yourself and your family as well. Love from the USA ✌️
You said you checked out Fangor's package. 😂 Hey, you're not the only man child! Seriously though, he's a cool figure and it's really cool they've adjusted the packaging so it can be played with and not destroy the card.
Thanks for watching! Yeah that collector friendly packaging and overall art really stand out with Fangor! I like the design of this figure for the Origins! It's cool to be able to remove him from the packaging and not damage it as you mentioned👍
Its a nice figure but i skipped this one, will do the same for Lady whats her name, more into the vintage figures then the deep cuts from classics or 200x
Thanks for checking the review out, Even though you skipped this figure and lady slither that's to come! Mattel said they are gonna finish up all the Vintage inspired Origins. But they all be Mattel Creations exclusives.
@appolospbvxr I'm sure Modulok, Rio blast, and Two Bad are high on the list and will be done for Origins next year. The Giants are possible as well! But the main figures have to be finished and sell out first before Mattel invests tooling money and resources into those larger items from what they hinted!
That's awesome you got yours today! Yes, becarful of the tight joints. Try a blow dryer on low heat to loosen them without forcing the articulation. I talked to two other people in the comments whose Fangor Figure arm also snapped like mine. They contacted Mattel and said they have no more figures for replacement. They can only issue a refund once you ship the figure back. I just repaired mine. I knew it would be aggravation sending it back.
I'm on the East Coast! Our sale started at 12 noon EST. I went back for a second one after my first purchase about 30 minutes later and it said sold out.
@TMC, that's the main page's glitch, you gotta go to the actual item's page to see it available! I've monitored the sale closely, he was sold out on my end after 2 hours and half (give or take). I wonder if he showed up differently for people with different time zones?!
@josephk8506 That definitely could be the case. Time zone glitch or something on my end! I guess the point is he did sell out within the first day, and they have no more available. Hopefully, most people got one!
I wonder if the loincloth is from the new Cartoon inspired Origins? Temptation will get the better of me and that belt will be popped off 😂 Another great review 👍
Thanks for stopping in as always! Yeah that line cloth looks like something new. I bet your right about that being the new one for the filmation inspired figures coming next year. I can totally see that! I think if you take that belt off, thier might be a grove cut in the new line cloth now from what I see. I'm not sure if this gonna be standard for the newer ones.
@Themanchlid I've just checked Rattlor's loincloth. It's Rattlor's 🤣 Don't know why I've never realised Rattlor's belt is a separate rubber piece before now? Your videos are entertaining AND educational 😂
@randyvalentine Yeah, I just checked my Rattlor as well after your comment. It's definitely Rattlors set up but painted differently. Well, I guess I had the He-man comparison right showing it's a different loin pad. But I didn't put together it was Rattlors. The paint really threw me off. Lol. I'm glad you find entertainment in my reviews! I appreciate your support 👍
Thanks for watching! Yeah it's one of the things with the arm being stuck and breaking! I have have had broken joints before in all kinds of figures because of a stuck joint and I try to mess around with it. I usually drill and repair it with a steel pin like I showed. Aside from that! He's an awesome figure👍
Is the circular part of the belt buckle sculpted in, or just paint? Cuz it really reminds me of Rattlor's. Maybe Rattlor's got a different one to go with the wide torso though.
It looks like it might be the same sculpt as Rattlor. It's throws me off a bit because of the way the gold circle is painted gold around the raise snake design. It makes It look very different from Rattlor. Thanks for watching and sharing your comments 👍
That really sucks about the arm. I don’t have the kind of ingenuity to figure out quick fixes like you did. And that’s the thing, consumers shouldn’t have to try a DIY fix when it comes to something they purchase. I’ve also read on the Facebook forums and in some of these comments that Mattel doesn’t have any more in stock in the event of someone needing replacement parts, which to me is a bit irresponsible, especially when it comes to limited editions and made-to-order stuff. I sure hope mine doesn’t have that issue. On that note, here’s my horror story: I just received my shipment from FedEx yesterday afternoon and saw that the actual package had looked like it had been run over by a truck. Not a good sign. Sure enough, I open up the package and my mailer box doesn’t look much better. Dented and slightly crushed in a few areas; I carefully remove Fang-Or…the actual figure and mini-comic look like they’re okay, but the clamshell is also sort of bashed in on the left side and the cardback is slightly damaged and has a crease in it toward the bottom. Not terrible, but still kind of disappointing. The plastic clamshell at least can probably be pushed out and manipulated to look better than the way it does now. I guess as long as everything else works and looks good, I probably shouldn’t complain too much. Still extremely pissed off at how badly FedEx mishandled my package (I assume it was strictly a FedEx issue and not a Mattel issue). Planning on filing formal complaints with both Mattel and FedEx to see if they can offer a refund or discount, even though I’m still going to keep what they sent me (because there supposedly aren’t anymore in stock). Another reason why I always prefer to inspect and purchase something myself in-store rather than relying on a delivery service to deliver it. Can’t trust anyone these days… 😡 Overall, I really like Fang-Or! It seems as if Mattel has taken into account that items like this need to have collector-friendly packaging, which I don’t mind paying a bit extra for. As great as the other MC exclusives were (Wun-Dar, Grizzlor, Frog Monger, etc.), the only real problem is once you open them, they’re basically “ripped” open and can’t really be salvaged. I’m also surprised that Fang-Or is using the older, more traditional “New for 23” style cardback and not the Snake Men motif on the MotU logo, especially considering he is literally one of the Snake Men! It’s details like that that trigger my OCD and make me twitch. Very odd… Lastly, I do know that Fang-Or was designed in a way that if he had been a vintage figure, the fangs would have extended. So, I wish Mattel could have found a way to incorporate that action feature into this version of Fang-Or; like how Tung Lashor’s tongue doesn’t extend either. That would have been a nice way to give vintage collectors something new as well. Oh well, it is what it is. Despite everything I mentioned, he’s still a great figure. I’m glad to have him and am also really looking forward to Lady Slither. Let’s hope she won’t sell out within 3 minutes! 🤞
Yeah, my Fangor figures arm broke off really easy! I barely moved it! I know when joints are tight in my figures, I stop and heat them up with hot water orca blow dryer and then try to move them. Not this time. It's a QC issue! I also read other comments of people's Fangor arms breaking off like mine did. So use caution!! That sucks your box came damaged. I'm all too familiar with that from FedEx and Priority mail. It's part of the stress of buying everything online now! Overall, I thought Mattel did a good job with the design and fangs. I'm not sure if the vintage was gonna have an action feature! But most likely, in those days, he would have. I didn't expect Origins to make an action feature or go to complex with the design. Lady slither it coming in September I think! Fangor was easy for me to get on Mattel creations. I really hope lady slither will be as well for everyone this time!👍
Awesome figure!! Can’t wait to get mine. Really happy it’s collector friendly packaging. Really hoping we get a He Ro soon! I’ve seen some pictures of people saying theirs didn’t come with his accessories. Crazy shit. That’s fucked up about the arm. I’ll be dipping mine in hot water first lol.
Thanks for dropping by to check out the Fangor review! I hope you get your figure soon! That packaging is a must-have!I think we will see a He Ro figure next year in the Origins. I talked to a couple of other people in the comments who said their arm also broke off with very little force like mine did. I didn't hear about the weapons missing. But I wouldn't be surprised with some of this stuff being rushed out. They also said Mattel has no more figures for replacements. So they can send it back for a fefund! Fuck that! I just fixed my arm and re enforced it! Yes, definitely use some hot water or a blow dryer if certain joints don't feel right 👍
It’s stuff like this that also worries me about the vintage origins moving to Mattel creations only. Hopefully they make enough for everyone and to handle refunds if any of this stuff ever happens again.
@TheWandifan Yeah, it could be just one of those things with this figure or some that went out. Usually, Origins are pretty good. If anything, the joints are usually loose, and I have to use joint fix or clear nail polish.
I have to admit! I wouldn't mine a cosmic He-man in the Origins and Masterverse. The Origins made an Anti eternia He-man. But not the Masterverse yet! I did see some customs of one on eBay.
I totally agree! I have been waiting for some Skeleton army warriors in masters of the universe for a long time! I got my wish finnaly! They came out really cool! Thanks for watching as always 👍
That's a good point! I wouldn't mind seeing variant of Cosmic He-man. I thought that was kind of cool! Thanks for stopping in to check out the review ✌️
Pre Eternia 🐍 … Cosmic is a Easter 🐣 Mattel is Awesome… the head be a cooler sculpt for Rattlor and now thinking 💭 about new figures… 💡Black Mamba or Mambor with silver vac metal black and grey ish ™️ Mattel lol ok awesome quick fix thanks for your reviews… Sss see you next month Sweet !!! We have the POWER 💥💀
Pre Eternia figures are Awesome! This Fangor figures design is super with the new head sculpt. Yes mine had that broken arm unfortunatel, but I was able to repair it. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👌
That's great to hear! Hopefully, tomorrow, he will arrive! Mine is already with the other Snakemen! Thanks for stopping in and sharing your toy updates 👍
So I’ve been wanted him since day one this guy cost so much even in retail but Mercari has him fair price 25$ with tax and shipping fee so looking at 31$ instead of 70$ I got all night to think about it I got to before someone buys it or I’ll end up kicking myself? Also tomorrow Grind from DC McFarland is coming tomorrow so let’s say 2025 I’ve been going hard on buying figures I have 3 more when this month ends the 3 are Godzillas figs
@@joseconcepcion6949 He was very limited at Mattel Creations and sold out fast. Mine had a weak arm that snapped easy. I had to repair it because I couldn't get another one. They are usually expensive.
They are still shipping out now. Many of us bought within that time frame. But I guess the shipping goes by the people in line in order. There were many. I bought mine at one minute into the sale. Hopefully yours ships soon!👍
Yeah, I got mine and his joints were stiff to frozen. I got them moving with hot water but left elbow still pretty tight. It's not your fault. This isn't acceptable quality for a major toy maker. And most people aren't handy enough to fix it and well, shouldn't have to.
Thanks for watching, sharing your comments and issues. Yeah, I barely moved my arm on Fangor, and it snapped off! Usually, if a joint is stiff on my figures, I stop and use a blow dryer. That helps most of the time or hot water, as you mentioned! I have had my fair share of broken figure joints over the years. But it's mostly Neca and older Mcfarlane stuff! So I know how to rig the repair and make it stronger. I have had some other comments from people who also had an arm break on their Fangor Figure. They contacted Mattel and said to send it back for a refund. They don't have any more Fangor figures. So I'll just fix mine. But you're right! This is a QC issue with joints being stuck because of the paint or plastic not drying correctly in the factory. We shouldn't have to fix a new figure out of the package because the joints were not tested before the figure was packaged!
@@Themanchlid Yeah, the downside to limited run items. I guess the other option for some people is to keep the figure and find similarly colored Origins arms to swap out. There are a lot of green characters. At least they'd still have the Fangor character in their collections.
@scockery The limited quantities are definitely an issue for returns. Yeah, you basically use most Origins arms that are green. But aside from Kobra Kahn. The other colors are way off. And Fangor has King hsss arms and different bracers. So that might be a big deal to some people. It was for me! I didn't want to return it and use regular arms. So I made the reconnection I showed.
Thanks for checking the review out! Yeah I think your right the more I look at it! Something with the gold paint and set up on that body throws it off as Something new by eye.👍
Hola! Creo que es una figura genial pero creo que es exclusiva y lamentablemente no podré conseguirla... Es una pena pena porque de los Snake Men es mi favorita. Un saludo!
Hello! Thanks for stopping in to check out the video. Yes unfortunately all the newer Origins vintage inspired figures will be sold only on Mattel Creations going forward like this Fangor Figure. There are plenty on eBay and other third party site. It's ashame because so many people outside the the USA really love these figures.
The Classics line will also be my favorite and has some of the best aesthetics and designs. But the Origins just goes back to that simpler nastalgia. This Origins Fangor came out really good! Thanks for watching 👌
WISH they had this packaging for Masterverse and Origins, I would be willing to pay the extra dollar or so extra for it! Love Masterverse figures, fast becoming my favorite line but unlike MOTUC (which had amazing looking packaging, although also would have been nice if the card was removable like this) the packaging for them gives me no desire to keep MOC, sadly :( Thanks for the review, creepy looking fella!
The Masterverse is getting all new box packaging and art with the next wave coming next year. The Classics figures will always be the best to me. But unfortunately the cards were never designed to put the figure back when it's removed. This Origins Fangor has really cool collector friendly packaging like a showed. I wish all the Origins would come like that! The Masterverse is also one of my favorite lines now! Thanks for watching and sharing your comments 👍
@@Themanchlid agreed about the classics will always be the best. would be hard for them to replicate that much details into their figures, the 4 horsemen knocked those figures out of the park.
@danjones6702 The Classics is definitely my favorite line. Unfortunately, it ended! But the Origins and Masterverse also bring something cool to the Motu collection in their own ways! Thanks for watching 👌
@ yeah your right I’m procrastinating of getting him I know I’ll love him are you happy you have him ? In hand I know I’m really thinking 🤔 about it a lot to get or not
Fangor was a Mattel Creations exclusive as you know! I just preordered mine about a minute into the sale. I got a shipping update the next day like many people I also spoke with. A few days later I got him. However many other people still haven't got there's yet! I'm sure it's first com first serve! So many orders are still coming out. Were are they made in Canada? The figures has made on Vietnam right on the back.
Oh man! You're the second comment I got on a broken arm joint. I thought I just had a bad one. Yeah, I have a feeling they aren't gonna have more in stock and will just credit you back when they receive it. I just repaired mine with a small drill and piece of steel, which showed! I figured it's already broken. The worst thing I can do is damage the articulation joint more because I drilled to deep or big of a hole. You can insert a larger pin and glue it. But then the arm is fixed stuck. I got mine, so the articulation still works. I didn't feel like sending it back! There's plenty of other fangors on eBay. But they're double the cost. Thanks for watching the review, and I hope you can repair yours or get your money back!
@bishopmaddox Yeah, Mattel doesn't have anyone in stock for replacements. I was told by another person on Instagram who's fangor figures arm also broke. Your figure is already broken. So what do you have to lose trying the repair! Use a cordless drill or dremel. I used a 1/ 16-inch drill bit. I drilled very slowly in the dead center of the broken peg on each arm piece. The bicep end goes in about 1/2 of inche. Drill in to the arm piece no more than a 1/4 inch. Then, get a small trim nail or big safety pin and cut a 3/4 piece off with wire cutters. Watch your eyes! Then insert it into the bicep and twist the arm on. If the arm doesn't go in all the way. Just take a little moe off the rod piece. Also, size up the metal piece you use and drill bit. You don't want the hole larger as the reinforced nail or pin will slide out. You want a tight fit! If all goes well and the arm is back on. Then, use a blow dryer on low heat for a couple of minutes on the stuck joint that broke. Now try to move it again with the arm on and that steel piece in. 👍
I usually just use a blow dryer on the joint. I hardly moved the arm before it snapped. I got some other comments saying the same thing about their Fangor figures arm. But thanks for the tip and watching 👍
I purchased mine on the sale date, and it shipped the next day! I spoke with many other people in the comments whose figures also shipped. However, many other people are still waiting, or now they finally got a shipping update. I guess it's first come, first serve according to the orders in numbers. I'm assuming they have enough in the warehouse and take time to get them all out. Even though I was one of the lucky ones to get mine early to review! It doesn't matter because all the big review channels already got a Fangor for free and reviewed him a couple weeks before the sale.
@sci-fi.tsunami Maybe that is why it still hasn't been shipped yet! I know people are still getting them shipped in order. I have no idea how many figures were available or shipments have to go out.
Ah, that happened to me with the Grizzlor on Mattel Creations! My bank card expired, too. I got one later on eBay. But of course, for more money. I guess that's your only option now, unfortunately, unless BBTS stocks some! Thanks for stopping in as always! I hope you can manage to get one somehow👍
Read the comments! Tons of people are already getting theirs and got their figure before I did. Others still haven't received any shipping updates yet! I guess they ship out first come, first serve, or what orders were in chronological order in line.
I haven't purchased a He-Man figure for more than 30 years, but I would buy Lady Slither if she has interchangeable legs and snake lower half, to give her a Medusa look.
@@Themanchlid I just read this now... Announced by Mattel Origins Lady Slither: First-ever Lady Slither action figure Designed by Axel Gimenez Official announcement: September 2023 Launching: September 2023 - Will have an elegant slipcover wrapped in snake scales with a bronze patina finished medallion of her face - Has interchangeable human legs - The top of the slipcover has a bronze crest of the Snake Man logo while the back has a character writeup inside of a bronzed serpent frame. - The front of the box features Lady Slither commanding her troops Fang-Or, Vypor, Stretch Neck and Raptilax (from the vintage mini comics) into battle. - On the cardback we have Lady Slither in her human form (featuring her interchangeable human legs) sitting on her throne inside her Snake Lair. To the left of Lady Slither is High Priest Pythonus, a character also designed by Axel, and to the right of Lady Slither is the red Snake Man fans will recognize from Kol-Darr’s cardback art.
@pscoolguy Oh, nice update! That's for the info and sending me that! I'm gonna check it out! I thought I heard lady Slither was coming in September a couple of months back! That's awesome 👍
I didn't force it that hard to break. I know all about heating something up to move it when joints are stiff. I also got other comments on other Fangor figures' arms breaking. I was able to repair mine with a reinforced pin that's stronger than the whole figure. Lol
Great review! I'm glad I got one as well. However would love to see Mattel bring the Snake Men into the Masterverse lineup and Fang-Or needs to in there for sure!
Thanks for watching! Congrats on also getting a Fangor Figure! I can see the Snakemen coming to the Masterverse maybe next year! They are focusing on the New Eternia and Revalation figures at this time! But Snakemen would be awesome, and many people want them in Masterverse 👍
These lasted a few hours on Mattel Creations. I almost forgot to order. Went on and checked out in a couple minutes. Well done MC.
Yeah, i heard other comments say he was up for three hours or more. When I bought mine at the start. I went back for a second one, about a half hour later, and it was sold out! I'm happy to hear you did manage to get one, too! Thanks for checking out this review as you have with others! Hopefully you get your figure soon👍
@@Themanchlid I was watching and checking the site every 10mins and it was up for about 2 3/4 hours before selling out. Everyone that needed one could get it i felt, it wasnt as slow as 'Space Sumo' but was no Koldar.
Love the video and I really enjoyed the "show and tell" on how to fix a broken joint! Thanks!!!
Thanks for stopping in to check out the review! Yeah, I had a little misfortune with breaking my arm joint. I have broken many figures' joints in the arms or legs over the years. Usually with Neca or Mcfarlane if they get stuck. This is the first time I have seen it with Origins. It broke really easy. Usually, if I discover a stuck joint, I then use a blow dryer to heat and loosen it. But this joint was too tight and brittle. I was gonna show how I repaired everything step by step. But I just figured I would describe it quickly and show how I put the arm back on.
Always killing the reviews man! Love it.
Hope your doing well.
Thanks, man! I'm trying to push forward every day! I appreciate your support support and comments! I'm gonna try to start reviewing that new spawn I got👍

A first-rate review of Fangor and his cool accessories. Moreover, an awesome repair!
Thanks for stopping in as always, aaronscott! Yeah, my Fangor arm snapped really easily! But I repaired it quickly!👍
@@Themanchlid You're doing awesome work! 👍
Great video. It’s cool to see Fang or in hand. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Mine came with a really hard knee articulation😅 but thankfully with hot water I was able to fix it. The loincloath of fangor is not a regular one, it's a recolor of Rattlor's one
Nice pick ups! Hard are loose joints are common. Hot water helps a lot. But sometimes the joint can have a bad plastic QC issue and break with very little moment like mine did. I recieved a few other comments with other people's Figure also breaking at the elbow joint.
Yeah the loincloth is just a Rattlor repaint. I didn't notice that at the time. The paint really makes it look like something different unless you compare Rattlor against Fangor which I did later and noticed that's all it was! Thanks for watching and I'm glad to hear your figures tight joints worked out good with hot water!👍
He's one if tge best origins ...period.
I got mine sunday...video coming soon..
Congrats on getting your figure already! He is totally one of the best Origins this year!👍
There is a skirt adapter that comes with Lady Slithor that will allow the snake tail to be used with male characters.
Yeah, I saw that skirt! I'm guessing it's removable, and the tail can be used for other figures. It wouldn't make sense not to. But I haven't seen any up close images what that piece looks like off!
The head sculpt is really cool along with the shin guards. Can't wait tobget mine in!
He definitely has one if the coolest heads sculpts I have seen yet! I hope you get yours real soon! Thanks for watching 👍
Awesome review!! I also tend to have some issues with the legs of the origins figure such as Stinkor , although the legs did not break they are so loose that he doesn't stand well. There are other figures with loose joints but so far none have completely broken off.
Thanks for watching as always! The loose joints aren't usually the problem where breakage occurs! It's the joints that are frozen or stiff. The best thing to do is put them in hot water or use a blow dryer and try to soften them up. Then gently try to move them. Mine Fangor arm was frozen, and I did use much force to move it. It snapped very easily. I also heard of some other people's Fangor figures arms also breaking like mine did. As far as loose joints. Just use clear nail polish in and around the joint. Work the joint back and forth and let it dry. You can clean the excess with a rubbing alcohol pad. If the joint is still loose, just apply a second and third coat after each has dried!👍
@@Themanchlid Thank you so very much for these tips . I appreciate it!
@@robertalessandrini8773 No problem! Best of luck!👍
Can't wait for mine these fangs and detail is outstanding
The overall look and design is really cool! I know he's just reusing many parts. But something with the paint, head and fangs make him stand out! Thanks for stopping in buddy! I hope your Fangor arrives soon👌
I hope there is a regular release of this figure. I'm pretty much done with Mattel Creation exclusives.
At SDCC Mattel said ALL of the remaining vintage figures will be sold on MattelCreations. There are still 15 figures from the original line + all these new characters. The Filmation animation versions are going to retail from now on. We will be dealing with MattelCreations a lot more going forward.
Mattel said that all the future Vintage inspired Origins concepts and main figures are gonna only be sold at Mattel Creations going forward. The new Filmation and Masterverse figures will still be going to certain retailers. I guess it's easier and most cost effective for Mattel now to sell many of these figures!
@@Themanchlid Guess I'll be done Origins then.
@somarriba333 Well, it's possible places like BBTS sometimes get and stocks certain exclusives after a while. But you have to go check out their site and Motu Pre sales every now and then to see if they have any extras and put your order in before they sell out. The Origins isn't easy to collect, unfortunately, as the line goes forward with certain figures.
@@Themanchlid I only get things online as a last resort. If online is the only way, then that's a sign that I'm done with the line.
Mine hasn’t shipped but I’m leaving for Europe for a week so I’m not in a rush.
Yeah, thier still shipping out orders or what's available at this time in their warehouse, I guess! Europe for a week! Nice! Have a safe trip, and thanks for stopping by👍
Hell yeah. Mine shipped today. Can't wait to get him. Hopefully, the next figure is just as easy.
That great to hear your figure finnaly shipped! He looks awesome in hand! I also hope all the Origins figures ship as quick from Mattel Creations going forward! Thanks for stopping in and sharing your toy updates!👍
Mine broke the exact same way. When I contacted Mattel Creations they did NOT have replacements available to ship to me.
Wow! I'm sorry to hear that in your figure as well. I have had many broken joints in other figures over the years. But not Origins. This was a first! Someone else told me I should have contacted Mattel, of course. I didn't want to deal with the aggravation, and I had a feeling they didn't have more. So I just used a small drill bit. I drilled a hole directly in the center of the bicep and about a half of inch in. Then, about a quarter inch in the broken piece. I used a small aluminum trim nail. Cut the head off and push it in with vice grips. Then, I twisted the forarm on like I showed, and it can still come off again. I also still have all the articulation. Sometimes, drilling ruins the joint, and all you do is put the pin in and set it in one position. It's tricky. But that's how I repaired mine. Thanks for watching, and hopefully, Mattel can get another one or go on eBay. Theres plenty of fangors. But more money. Or try to repair your arm like I described. It's already broken. What do you have to lose. Just practice in something else plastic with a small bit and make sure to get a steel reinforced piece that fits tight. You can also get a thick paper clip and cut a straight piece instead of a nail. Use small wire cutters. You can get them at a hobby shop or dollar store.
Great! Thanks for the heads up. Looks like this is going to be a thing with this figure. I'll try to be careful with mine. Stick it in boiling water before trying to move it.
*IF* Mattel ever bothers to ship mine. 🙄
@sci-fi.tsunami Yes, be careful of the joints once you finally get yours. Hot water is a good idea!
I really think this is a great design. Great combination of colors. Super glad I got 1 and it wasn't to bad of an experience. Like you mentioned I hope future orders go this well too.
The design for this Origins Fangor is really cool. Even though he shares a lot of parts with other figures, he still looks like something completely new because of the head and colors. Mine shipped really fast! I hope you get yours very soon as well! It would be great if all Mattel Creations figures would ship this smoothly! Thanks for watching 🤝
P.S. I just noticed I wasn't subscribed to you anymore which is weird because I've been sub'd for you almost two years.
@bishopmaddox Thanks for subscribing and your support! Yes, RUclips unsubsribes people for no reason from time to time. It's weird! I just subscribed to your channel if that helps. Thanks for the update on that info and stopping in!👍
Thank you brother, that means a lot. It's hard to interest people in writing these days@@Themanchlid
@bishopmaddox No problem, bro! I always like to help and try to respond as much as I can. I'm also limited because of disabilities and severe neurological and Tendon damage I have all over my body from a chemical injury I had a decade ago. I do what I can!👍
Odd, some came with punch outs. The lower legs are from 200X Skeletor and a modified Sun men style waist.
Yeah mine didn't! I wish it did. Thanks for watching and sharing that info!
Fang or head sculp might be the best of all the snake men. Tung lashor has always been my favorite
They definitely did a great job with this Fangor Figure. The head looks a lot like the Classics. I also always liked Tung Lashor as a kid and even now! Thanks for stopping in to check out the review 👍
I'm so glad you got one, I'll have pay evil Bay as it's to hard to get one from Australia
Look after yourself and your family
Love from Western Australia
Thanks for stopping on to check out the review! Yeah, Fangor was very limited. I know all too well about eBay sales and price! I buy many things there that i can't find nowhere else! Take care of yourself and your family as well.
Love from the USA ✌️
You said you checked out Fangor's package. 😂 Hey, you're not the only man child!
Seriously though, he's a cool figure and it's really cool they've adjusted the packaging so it can be played with and not destroy the card.
Thanks for watching! Yeah that collector friendly packaging and overall art really stand out with Fangor! I like the design of this figure for the Origins! It's cool to be able to remove him from the packaging and not damage it as you mentioned👍
Its a nice figure but i skipped this one, will do the same for Lady whats her name, more into the vintage figures then the deep cuts from classics or 200x
Thanks for checking the review out, Even though you skipped this figure and lady slither that's to come! Mattel said they are gonna finish up all the Vintage inspired Origins. But they all be Mattel Creations exclusives.
@@Themanchlid Yeah i cant wait for: TwoBad, Modulok, RioBlast and even stuff like Laser Lights & Tytus and Megator
@appolospbvxr I'm sure Modulok, Rio blast, and Two Bad are high on the list and will be done for Origins next year. The Giants are possible as well! But the main figures have to be finished and sell out first before Mattel invests tooling money and resources into those larger items from what they hinted!
Got mine yesterday. He's a great figure!
Congrats on getting your figure in already! I'm glad to hear you like the overall look. He came out great! Thanks for watching 👌
Mine just canebin today. Super cool figure. Mines knee joint seems stiff. Leaving it alone lol
That's awesome you got yours today! Yes, becarful of the tight joints. Try a blow dryer on low heat to loosen them without forcing the articulation. I talked to two other people in the comments whose Fangor Figure arm also snapped like mine. They contacted Mattel and said they have no more figures for replacement. They can only issue a refund once you ship the figure back. I just repaired mine. I knew it would be aggravation sending it back.
Dang, still haven't received mine yet. 😕
Yeah they are still be shipped for many people! Hopefully soon! Thanks for watching 👍
Nice! Didnt expect him to ship so quickly!
Thanks for checking out the review! I couldn't believe how fast that shipped! I wish all the Origins ship like this!
I have two coming tomorrow. I have seen Skeleton Warriors and Snake men four pack unboxing videos on RUclips.
Nice! Hopefully, you get it soon! Yes, I have those figures already. I'm working on my reviews now!
FYI, he sold out after about 2 hrs and 20 minutes, around 11:20 + AM Pacific Time.
I'm on the East Coast! Our sale started at 12 noon EST. I went back for a second one after my first purchase about 30 minutes later and it said sold out.
@@Themanchlid I forgot to set my alarm & almost missed this one. I ordered mine at 12:41. It sold out around 3 hours.
@sci-fi.tsunami That's great he was up that long. That's not what I saw when ordering mine, and I went back for another half hour later.
@TMC, that's the main page's glitch, you gotta go to the actual item's page to see it available!
I've monitored the sale closely, he was sold out on my end after 2 hours and half (give or take). I wonder if he showed up differently for people with different time zones?!
@josephk8506 That definitely could be the case. Time zone glitch or something on my end! I guess the point is he did sell out within the first day, and they have no more available. Hopefully, most people got one!
I wonder if the loincloth is from the new Cartoon inspired Origins?
Temptation will get the better of me and that belt will be popped off 😂
Another great review 👍
Thanks for stopping in as always! Yeah that line cloth looks like something new. I bet your right about that being the new one for the filmation inspired figures coming next year. I can totally see that! I think if you take that belt off, thier might be a grove cut in the new line cloth now from what I see. I'm not sure if this gonna be standard for the newer ones.
@Themanchlid I've just checked Rattlor's loincloth.
It's Rattlor's 🤣
Don't know why I've never realised Rattlor's belt is a separate rubber piece before now? Your videos are entertaining AND educational 😂
@randyvalentine Yeah, I just checked my Rattlor as well after your comment. It's definitely Rattlors set up but painted differently. Well, I guess I had the He-man comparison right showing it's a different loin pad. But I didn't put together it was Rattlors. The paint really threw me off. Lol. I'm glad you find entertainment in my reviews! I appreciate your support 👍
Sorry you had problems with the arm. That's been a problem with some of the origins figures. I was able to get 2 at the last minute. Good video sir.
Thanks for watching! Yeah it's one of the things with the arm being stuck and breaking! I have have had broken joints before in all kinds of figures because of a stuck joint and I try to mess around with it. I usually drill and repair it with a steel pin like I showed. Aside from that! He's an awesome figure👍
Is the circular part of the belt buckle sculpted in, or just paint? Cuz it really reminds me of Rattlor's. Maybe Rattlor's got a different one to go with the wide torso though.
It looks like it might be the same sculpt as Rattlor. It's throws me off a bit because of the way the gold circle is painted gold around the raise snake design. It makes It look very different from Rattlor. Thanks for watching and sharing your comments 👍
That really sucks about the arm. I don’t have the kind of ingenuity to figure out quick fixes like you did. And that’s the thing, consumers shouldn’t have to try a DIY fix when it comes to something they purchase. I’ve also read on the Facebook forums and in some of these comments that Mattel doesn’t have any more in stock in the event of someone needing replacement parts, which to me is a bit irresponsible, especially when it comes to limited editions and made-to-order stuff. I sure hope mine doesn’t have that issue. On that note, here’s my horror story: I just received my shipment from FedEx yesterday afternoon and saw that the actual package had looked like it had been run over by a truck. Not a good sign. Sure enough, I open up the package and my mailer box doesn’t look much better. Dented and slightly crushed in a few areas; I carefully remove Fang-Or…the actual figure and mini-comic look like they’re okay, but the clamshell is also sort of bashed in on the left side and the cardback is slightly damaged and has a crease in it toward the bottom. Not terrible, but still kind of disappointing. The plastic clamshell at least can probably be pushed out and manipulated to look better than the way it does now. I guess as long as everything else works and looks good, I probably shouldn’t complain too much. Still extremely pissed off at how badly FedEx mishandled my package (I assume it was strictly a FedEx issue and not a Mattel issue). Planning on filing formal complaints with both Mattel and FedEx to see if they can offer a refund or discount, even though I’m still going to keep what they sent me (because there supposedly aren’t anymore in stock). Another reason why I always prefer to inspect and purchase something myself in-store rather than relying on a delivery service to deliver it. Can’t trust anyone these days… 😡
Overall, I really like Fang-Or! It seems as if Mattel has taken into account that items like this need to have collector-friendly packaging, which I don’t mind paying a bit extra for. As great as the other MC exclusives were (Wun-Dar, Grizzlor, Frog Monger, etc.), the only real problem is once you open them, they’re basically “ripped” open and can’t really be salvaged. I’m also surprised that Fang-Or is using the older, more traditional “New for 23” style cardback and not the Snake Men motif on the MotU logo, especially considering he is literally one of the Snake Men! It’s details like that that trigger my OCD and make me twitch. Very odd…
Lastly, I do know that Fang-Or was designed in a way that if he had been a vintage figure, the fangs would have extended. So, I wish Mattel could have found a way to incorporate that action feature into this version of Fang-Or; like how Tung Lashor’s tongue doesn’t extend either. That would have been a nice way to give vintage collectors something new as well. Oh well, it is what it is. Despite everything I mentioned, he’s still a great figure. I’m glad to have him and am also really looking forward to Lady Slither. Let’s hope she won’t sell out within 3 minutes! 🤞
Yeah, my Fangor figures arm broke off really easy! I barely moved it! I know when joints are tight in my figures, I stop and heat them up with hot water orca blow dryer and then try to move them. Not this time. It's a QC issue! I also read other comments of people's Fangor arms breaking off like mine did. So use caution!! That sucks your box came damaged. I'm all too familiar with that from FedEx and Priority mail. It's part of the stress of buying everything online now! Overall, I thought Mattel did a good job with the design and fangs. I'm not sure if the vintage was gonna have an action feature! But most likely, in those days, he would have. I didn't expect Origins to make an action feature or go to complex with the design. Lady slither it coming in September I think! Fangor was easy for me to get on Mattel creations. I really hope lady slither will be as well for everyone this time!👍
Awesome figure!! Can’t wait to get mine. Really happy it’s collector friendly packaging. Really hoping we get a He Ro soon!
I’ve seen some pictures of people saying theirs didn’t come with his accessories. Crazy shit. That’s fucked up about the arm. I’ll be dipping mine in hot water first lol.
Thanks for dropping by to check out the Fangor review! I hope you get your figure soon! That packaging is a must-have!I think we will see a He Ro figure next year in the Origins. I talked to a couple of other people in the comments who said their arm also broke off with very little force like mine did. I didn't hear about the weapons missing. But I wouldn't be surprised with some of this stuff being rushed out. They also said Mattel has no more figures for replacements. So they can send it back for a fefund! Fuck that! I just fixed my arm and re enforced it! Yes, definitely use some hot water or a blow dryer if certain joints don't feel right 👍
It’s stuff like this that also worries me about the vintage origins moving to Mattel creations only. Hopefully they make enough for everyone and to handle refunds if any of this stuff ever happens again.
@TheWandifan Yeah, it could be just one of those things with this figure or some that went out. Usually, Origins are pretty good. If anything, the joints are usually loose, and I have to use joint fix or clear nail polish.
@@Themanchlid nail polish is also my go to.
Cosmic He-man wow I like that idea I might have to make it like I did Anti Eternia He-man that they still didn't make
I have to admit! I wouldn't mine a cosmic He-man in the Origins and Masterverse. The Origins made an Anti eternia He-man. But not the Masterverse yet! I did see some customs of one on eBay.
Where did u get the cobra Kan stand?
Ebay. There are a few different vintage stands that work for the Origins figures, too
One of the best figures in the line I think
I totally agree! I have been waiting for some Skeleton army warriors in masters of the universe for a long time! I got my wish finnaly! They came out really cool! Thanks for watching as always 👍
Cosmic He-Man sounds like something Jack Kirby would've done - which is appropriate since MOTU takes a lot of inspiration from The King.
That's a good point! I wouldn't mind seeing variant of Cosmic He-man. I thought that was kind of cool! Thanks for stopping in to check out the review ✌️
Pre Eternia 🐍 … Cosmic is a Easter 🐣 Mattel is Awesome… the head be a cooler sculpt for Rattlor and now thinking 💭 about new figures… 💡Black Mamba or Mambor with silver vac metal black and grey ish ™️ Mattel lol ok awesome quick fix thanks for your reviews… Sss see you next month Sweet !!! We have the POWER 💥💀
Pre Eternia figures are Awesome! This Fangor figures design is super with the new head sculpt. Yes mine had that broken arm unfortunatel, but I was able to repair it. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👌
Mine should be here tomorrow, can't wait to get him and put him with the other snake men!
That's great to hear! Hopefully, tomorrow, he will arrive! Mine is already with the other Snakemen! Thanks for stopping in and sharing your toy updates 👍
So I’ve been wanted him since day one this guy cost so much even in retail but Mercari has him fair price 25$ with tax and shipping fee so looking at 31$ instead of 70$ I got all night to think about it I got to before someone buys it or I’ll end up kicking myself? Also tomorrow Grind from DC McFarland is coming tomorrow so let’s say 2025 I’ve been going hard on buying figures I have 3 more when this month ends the 3 are Godzillas figs
@@joseconcepcion6949 He was very limited at Mattel Creations and sold out fast. Mine had a weak arm that snapped easy. I had to repair it because I couldn't get another one. They are usually expensive.
I bought mine within the first two minutes, I didn't get mine early.
They are still shipping out now. Many of us bought within that time frame. But I guess the shipping goes by the people in line in order. There were many. I bought mine at one minute into the sale. Hopefully yours ships soon!👍
Yeah, I got mine and his joints were stiff to frozen. I got them moving with hot water but left elbow still pretty tight. It's not your fault. This isn't acceptable quality for a major toy maker. And most people aren't handy enough to fix it and well, shouldn't have to.
Thanks for watching, sharing your comments and issues. Yeah, I barely moved my arm on Fangor, and it snapped off! Usually, if a joint is stiff on my figures, I stop and use a blow dryer. That helps most of the time or hot water, as you mentioned! I have had my fair share of broken figure joints over the years. But it's mostly Neca and older Mcfarlane stuff! So I know how to rig the repair and make it stronger. I have had some other comments from people who also had an arm break on their Fangor Figure. They contacted Mattel and said to send it back for a refund. They don't have any more Fangor figures. So I'll just fix mine. But you're right! This is a QC issue with joints being stuck because of the paint or plastic not drying correctly in the factory. We shouldn't have to fix a new figure out of the package because the joints were not tested before the figure was packaged!
@@Themanchlid Yeah, the downside to limited run items. I guess the other option for some people is to keep the figure and find similarly colored Origins arms to swap out. There are a lot of green characters. At least they'd still have the Fangor character in their collections.
@scockery The limited quantities are definitely an issue for returns. Yeah, you basically use most Origins arms that are green. But aside from Kobra Kahn. The other colors are way off. And Fangor has King hsss arms and different bracers. So that might be a big deal to some people. It was for me! I didn't want to return it and use regular arms. So I made the reconnection I showed.
Got my 2 delivered today
Cool! It's great you got your two figures now! Many people are still waiting for their figures to ship!
Pretty sure the loincloth is the same as rattlor
Thanks for checking the review out! Yeah I think your right the more I look at it! Something with the gold paint and set up on that body throws it off as Something new by eye.👍
Hola! Creo que es una figura genial pero creo que es exclusiva y lamentablemente no podré conseguirla... Es una pena pena porque de los Snake Men es mi favorita. Un saludo!
Hello! Thanks for stopping in to check out the video. Yes unfortunately all the newer Origins vintage inspired figures will be sold only on Mattel Creations going forward like this Fangor Figure. There are plenty on eBay and other third party site. It's ashame because so many people outside the the USA really love these figures.
@@Themanchlid OK gracias
@@franciscoacosta410 👍
Fangor is a very cool figure! However, I still think the best MOTU figures are Classics. For beauty and details.
The Classics line will also be my favorite and has some of the best aesthetics and designs. But the Origins just goes back to that simpler nastalgia. This Origins Fangor came out really good! Thanks for watching 👌
WISH they had this packaging for Masterverse and Origins, I would be willing to pay the extra dollar or so extra for it! Love Masterverse figures, fast becoming my favorite line but unlike MOTUC (which had amazing looking packaging, although also would have been nice if the card was removable like this) the packaging for them gives me no desire to keep MOC, sadly :( Thanks for the review, creepy looking fella!
The Masterverse is getting all new box packaging and art with the next wave coming next year. The Classics figures will always be the best to me. But unfortunately the cards were never designed to put the figure back when it's removed. This Origins Fangor has really cool collector friendly packaging like a showed. I wish all the Origins would come like that! The Masterverse is also one of my favorite lines now! Thanks for watching and sharing your comments 👍
@@Themanchlid agreed about the classics will always be the best. would be hard for them to replicate that much details into their figures, the 4 horsemen knocked those figures out of the park.
@danjones6702 The Classics is definitely my favorite line. Unfortunately, it ended! But the Origins and Masterverse also bring something cool to the Motu collection in their own ways! Thanks for watching 👌
They should of giving fangor a different color instead of this green just saying maybe purple or pink any color besides the green or maybe all yellow
@@joseconcepcion6949 I'm not sure how good those colors would have looked.
@ yeah your right I’m procrastinating of getting him I know I’ll love him are you happy you have him ? In hand I know I’m really thinking 🤔 about it a lot to get or not
@joseconcepcion6949 Yes I'm very Happy with this Snakemen figure aside from the QC issues I had with mine.
How do you even have some of these figures? These are made in Canada but can you imagine that Canada has a hard time getting stuff….
Fangor was a Mattel Creations exclusive as you know! I just preordered mine about a minute into the sale. I got a shipping update the next day like many people I also spoke with. A few days later I got him. However many other people still haven't got there's yet! I'm sure it's first com first serve! So many orders are still coming out. Were are they made in Canada? The figures has made on Vietnam right on the back.
Do you have a Classics Fangor for comparison?
Yes, only in the card still. I showed it later in the review up against the Origins Fangor.
Dude, this just happened to me. Mattel said send it back. This sucks.
Oh man! You're the second comment I got on a broken arm joint. I thought I just had a bad one. Yeah, I have a feeling they aren't gonna have more in stock and will just credit you back when they receive it. I just repaired mine with a small drill and piece of steel, which showed! I figured it's already broken. The worst thing I can do is damage the articulation joint more because I drilled to deep or big of a hole. You can insert a larger pin and glue it. But then the arm is fixed stuck. I got mine, so the articulation still works. I didn't feel like sending it back! There's plenty of other fangors on eBay. But they're double the cost. Thanks for watching the review, and I hope you can repair yours or get your money back!
My wife and I are going to try your fix trick. Great Video as always@@Themanchlid
@bishopmaddox Yeah, Mattel doesn't have anyone in stock for replacements. I was told by another person on Instagram who's fangor figures arm also broke. Your figure is already broken. So what do you have to lose trying the repair! Use a cordless drill or dremel. I used a 1/ 16-inch drill bit. I drilled very slowly in the dead center of the broken peg on each arm piece. The bicep end goes in about 1/2 of inche. Drill in to the arm piece no more than a 1/4 inch. Then, get a small trim nail or big safety pin and cut a 3/4 piece off with wire cutters. Watch your eyes! Then insert it into the bicep and twist the arm on. If the arm doesn't go in all the way. Just take a little moe off the rod piece. Also, size up the metal piece you use and drill bit. You don't want the hole larger as the reinforced nail or pin will slide out. You want a tight fit! If all goes well and the arm is back on. Then, use a blow dryer on low heat for a couple of minutes on the stuck joint that broke. Now try to move it again with the arm on and that steel piece in. 👍
Always put your new figs in hot water for 5 min the 1st time you open them.
I usually just use a blow dryer on the joint. I hardly moved the arm before it snapped. I got some other comments saying the same thing about their Fangor figures arm. But thanks for the tip and watching 👍
Jingle all the way "he got two" ❤
You got Two?
WTF? Mine didn't even ship yet. My order says "See pre-order date". If I was doing reviews I'd be totally pissed. You got lucky.
I purchased mine on the sale date, and it shipped the next day! I spoke with many other people in the comments whose figures also shipped. However, many other people are still waiting, or now they finally got a shipping update. I guess it's first come, first serve according to the orders in numbers. I'm assuming they have enough in the warehouse and take time to get them all out. Even though I was one of the lucky ones to get mine early to review! It doesn't matter because all the big review channels already got a Fangor for free and reviewed him a couple weeks before the sale.
@@Themanchlid I purchased mine 41 minutes late. I totally forgot about it.
@sci-fi.tsunami Maybe that is why it still hasn't been shipped yet! I know people are still getting them shipped in order. I have no idea how many figures were available or shipments have to go out.
I missed out on this one i had to order a new bank card so i couldn't order it
Ah, that happened to me with the Grizzlor on Mattel Creations! My bank card expired, too. I got one later on eBay. But of course, for more money. I guess that's your only option now, unfortunately, unless BBTS stocks some! Thanks for stopping in as always! I hope you can manage to get one somehow👍
So how come you get yours that fast but they list it available in a couple of months...are you buddy buddy with MATTEL..HMMMM
Read the comments! Tons of people are already getting theirs and got their figure before I did. Others still haven't received any shipping updates yet! I guess they ship out first come, first serve, or what orders were in chronological order in line.
The silver mouth looks like they forgot to paint it. Should be red.
The mouth is red inside! Not silver.
@@Themanchlid 6:19 Looks gray or silver.
@@sci-fi.tsunami it's dark reddish brown in my light. Looked again with my figure.
ARMOR not Armored.
I like Armored better.👌
I haven't purchased a He-Man figure for more than 30 years, but I would buy Lady Slither if she has interchangeable legs and snake lower half, to give her a Medusa look.
That's what I'm hoping with lady slither. Once we get her in hand then will see if the lower half is interchangable with the other figures.

- On the cardback we have Lady Slither in her human form (featuring her interchangeable human legs) sitting on her throne inside her Snake Lair. To the left of Lady Slither is High Priest Pythonus, a character also designed by Axel, and to the right of Lady Slither is the red Snake Man fans will recognize from Kol-Darr’s cardback art.
@pscoolguy Oh, nice update! That's for the info and sending me that! I'm gonna check it out! I thought I heard lady Slither was coming in September a couple of months back! That's awesome 👍
Fangor has dentures!?!! 😮😅😂
Big one! Lol
The elbow and knee joints on all these origins are pretty stiff. You forced it and paid the price lol
I didn't force it that hard to break. I know all about heating something up to move it when joints are stiff. I also got other comments on other Fangor figures' arms breaking. I was able to repair mine with a reinforced pin that's stronger than the whole figure. Lol
