i commend pixel Dan for staying in the hobby and reviewing toy for so many years, I enjoy his reviews along with several other people I sub to, gj Dan!
I love your enthusiasm Dan! It’s contagious!
Hey guys! Some new MOTUC stuff! This is the first of the 2 Power-Con Exclusive 3-packs. I'll have the other one coming up next. Thanks for watching!!
Heman,skeletor,stratos,zodac,merman and beastman....those are most iconic of all!
Incredibly happy to see this. Your MotU reviews have always been my favorite.
Thank you!!
Love your reviews. Thanks for taking the time to make these happen. Regarding the "unique" hip joints, it appears Super 7 reverted back to the wide crotch piece between the legs used on the very first Mattel issues of He-Man, Skeletor and Faker. Looks awkward for sure. I believe Super 7 is correcting this on the next wave. And apologies if you've stated this, and I missed it.
Cool review Dan. I would have liked to have seen a moment on the bio cards.
I ordered this set just for trap jaw i voted for mini comic trap jaw in the fan choice deal in 2013
Would love to see some new toy hunting videos pixel Dan whenever you get around to it I know your a busy man, your toy vids are my favorite. Thanks for all the vids you put out for us fans it's much appreciated...
Thanks Pixel Dan for this great review, helpful like always, rock on and blessings! 🤘😎
Does the robotic arm detach like the other trapjaw??
FINALLY!!! Been waiting for you to review the Power Con Exclusives! Thank you!
I would have liked to have seen the mini comic pics of these variants.
Love this version of Trap Jaw!
I love the comic color repaint figures. I’m hoping Brian comes through with the Snake Mountain.
Finally got my filmation clawful, hope my vintage clawfuls and mek-a-nek ( i think thats how its spelled) come soon. Lover your reviews, you got me into motu
did ya happen to get the other 3 pack exclusive? i have yet to see the art on the back of that.
I tried to remove the head on terroar from the other 3 pack so I could use the extended neck piece, instead of the head popping off, the whole neck peg came out of the torso and broke, so be very careful with these, I have every motuc figure made and never had any issues with removing heads b4, the super 7 figures look good but I think some of the smaller pieces are weaker plastic than they need to be
Ooh, yeah. I haven't opened that set yet, but the hairdryer trick will be a must there. Hopefully the hard plastic problem will not persist beyond these Power-Con sets.
I hope it's not a problem in the future, I like the line up of new figures they r making and I have them all on pre-order, hopefully they r as good as the Mattel figures were, I have the ultimates but havnt opened them yet, but I think I'll leave them in the package so I don't break any more necks
I have all the ultimates but didn't open them, I havnt heard of anyone having problems with the ultimates heads yet
Did you get the other 3-pack? Since so many people are having to wait so long for theirs, this would be a good review to put on the front burner imo. I'm still waiting on mine, and seeing your review for this one, and having it to watch as many times as I want between now and the arrival of mine is pretty freakin sweet.
Only this set, the white ninja pack, horde He-Man, Stridor, and Snake Mountain are missing my MOTUC collection.
You can use hot water to remove heads too
Huh, that's funny. I just noticed: Your Trap Jaw has eyebrows! I’ve had four of them in hand so far and none of them had any eyebrows drawn on them. Doesn’t look bad either way... just different. Did you get yours at PowerCon? Maybe the figures sent out later (like mine) are "non-eyebrow variants"? :)
Hopefully motu origins takes a page from super 7 and makes these. Stratos needs that staff. prince Adam can differ from the CC version by using the rubber vest in these colors. Trap jaw comic version is just cool.
Stratos needed the kermit the frog collar a belt and the staff of avian and Trapjaw’s right arm needed to be grey and they still mess it up
Hopefully Tri-Klops is a hint. :D
Slight critique: you should have shown images from the comics that the toys were based for newer fans who haven't seen the minicomic. I'm still reading through ones I've missed thanks to the internet.
I have the comic
Stratos was from Alcala's first illustration in the mini-adventure books. Mike Taylor's concept art showed Stratos as being light gray all over except for an exposed pale Caucasian-shade chest. So apparently Alcala misinterpreted the early art with that first book. But he fixed it after that.
Trap Jaw's color variant was from the 1982 DC mini-comic version of him. No idea why they changed him so much when they released the figure.
That color variant of Prince Adam was from the Alcala artwork in the 1982 DC comics, as well as Alcala's mini-comics after the cartoon had started airing. Basically it lets you avoid the magenta-and-lavender color scheme from the show if you want. (Still can't do anything about the fuzzy booty shorts though!)
Trap Jaw was my first MOTU figure back in the summer of 1983. His color variant is the only one I would be interested in.
Yeah, just wondering something. Maybe Pixel Dan or somebody here could help answer my question. Anyways, I was just wondering, do you think Super 7 will be coming out with more Masters of the Universe Classics Ultimates? Like, Possibly Hordak? And do you think we will get a She-Ra figure? 🤔
Does trap jaw glow under a black light? Looks like he would...
I'm loving these 3 packs.
If we are getting figures that Super7 knowingly acknowledges have "issues" then we should receive some type of compensation. I appreciate the effort, but first they didn't deliver on the resealable packaging on the ULTIMATES,and NOW we have figures with hard breakable plastic. Unacceptable for this price point.
Which company made it? Mattel?
Super 7 I think
Any idea if Super7 will be re-issuing more figures like Tri-Klops, Trap-Jaw or Man-E-Faces? The prices for the originals are beyond ludicrous now.
As Ultimates? If at all, not before 2019.
I would be happy with straight re-issues. There aren't that many optional pieces to these guys anyway, so a full-on "Ultimates" release seems rather unneccessary. Same with Beast-Man, Mekaneck, Buzz-Off or Whiplash. I had the misfortune to arrive rather late to the MOTUC party and many of the core figures are insanely expensive. As a European collector, even the cheapest ones start at about 40 to 50 Euros, and that's for the more obscure side characters like Huntara or Callix. Finding a Trap Jaw below a hundred Euros is nigh impossible, and the prices for someone like Shadow Weaver are utterly insane. I just saw one listed on amazon.de for 469 Euros, or the bargain price of about 200 on ebay. Considering they used to sell for what, 30 dollars, that's borderline criminal.
BFBeast666 I just bought a Chinese callix. I'm waiting to see how good it is compared to a real figure. Got it for $13 on eBay, and it comes without a head. I know a place to get a cast of the head, so when I get it, I'll order the cast.
Hi Pixel Dan, so they have moved production to a different factory now?
Yes. The Ultimates still used the Mattel factory, I think. So everything going forward will be from a new factory.
Intense Mark That's why all the issues with the three packs. Hope they get it right, the figs look cool.
I see. I thought that from Pixel Dan's interview with Brian back in 2016 that he prefers to have the same factory handle the MOTUC line
That’s what trap jaw looked like
Just got mine in the mail. i can get over the harder plastic... Is anyone else tripping-out that there are no peg holes in the feet on any of the figures?
hey i inked that back artwork!. whoop. thanks for the kind words.
Any non-antendees, have their figures ship. They said it was up to eight weeks after the con, but BBTS already got their shipments (which ticked me off given that BBTS was cheaper than buying as a non-antendee with shipping).
Charles Westfall Exactly. I was going to order as a non-attendee, but when I added that extra fee plus the ridiculous shipping rates, I saw that even with the markup, BBTS was cheaper. I ordered from them and got both three packs on Monday.
Non-attendee orders are not shipped yet.
That's why I'm glad that I ordered from BBTS. It's amazing that a toy store got a convention exclusive before the actual convention did.
I placed my order for the mini-comic set before Big Bad had their listings up. After my order was in I saw that BBTS would have been cheaper, but now find out you would have gotten them sooner. Oh well, getting the 'Frankencharacter' set from BBTS.
why there so many Stratos different color skin tones
I guess I'm too much of an 80's baby to get used to seeing these figures look so different from how they originally look especially trap jaw and Prince Adam, cool figures tho but I think the old school motu figs are better but that's just me, cool review tho Dan thanks for video keep doing what your doing bro toy collector for life.....
I hope they rerelease Trap Jaw somehow. I stupidly skipped out on this because I didn't want the other 2.
Does that trapjaw glow
thousand wolves Nope. I tried it with mine.
DEEP BREATH....SIIIIIGH. Okay. Kinda sad I preordered these with no question, only to get Super 7's trial period. Don't get me wrong, I'm VERY happy that they heard us and are fixing it, and I don't have to sit around wondering if things are happening, like with Mattel (Super 7 came right out and gave us regular updates and everything is looking much better). Still....sucks that I'm paying top dollar for mistakes. On the bright side, there's nothing that utterly destroys these (save for hands that'll be hard to get to hold things), but it's still some major mistakes that I just have to deal with. Would be cool to get some sort of fix for this, but I doubt it would be affordable for them to fix everyone's order with new versions.
I really like the Trapjaw belt and loin cloth piece, thats really kool, wish they would do other figures like that. maybe a normal Trapjaw with that combo.
Really hoping mine arrive soon!
I love the looks of this special release but at that price point, ill pass. lm definitely supporting Super7's efforts: I picked up the ultimates, the Kenner styled figs and preordered the next few waves. No question in my mind Super7 is gonna deliver the best yet. I need more vinyl tbh.
12:14 Trapjaw: "Whhaaaa?!?!...My Hook!! You broke my hook!!!!"
Cool re releases! I want to get the old castle greyskull I got got for my 5th birthday!
Thumbs up to the review, Dan, thumbs down to the figures though. Great concept, shoddy execution. Glad to hear Super7 is aware of this and hopefully working on future releases being more up to snuff. They've overall put out some great items, thinking this is just a misstep and not a hard fall.
Thanks, Dan. I got these all from BBTS, and though mine are packaged still, I can already see some paint imperfections. My Terroar has paint scratched off the snakeman insignia on his belt, and my Prince Adam's sword has extra paint globs dried on the blade. Really don't want joint issues, coupled with sloppy paint from a new company. Read some other complaints about the hard plastic and breakage. NOT GOOD.
Great new versions of the figures! Hopefully they release these again at some point without the bummer issues since they are aware of the problems.
All of super 7s stuff has been sub par. Packaging top of my list I still buy it though because it's motu. Not sure they could ever tackle something big like a snake mountain though which is sad
FUTURE OFALL Yeah. It sucks. I wish we had gotten Snake Mountain and some more vehicles/beasts from Mattel before they folded.
Cool review!
Can you add Facebook?
I have a Facebook page! Just search for "Pixel Dan!" :-)
so no peg holes on the feet? thats a bummer
Nice vid
:D
Thanks!
👍👍👍
Its the first time since 2008 that i wont be picking up a figure, or a pack in this case...theres no good reason to own them in my opinion
First of all, they are too expensive (especially for a Canadian like me), secondly the QC is very weak on this set..the wings on Stratos for exemple are literally unacceptable, they are way too soft, they will collapse with time, and im not even talking about the articulations and bubble head problems
And finally they are not figures im interested to...only Trapjaw looks cool, the other two are very boring figures and are not worth the price...not even close!
Anyway, this set is a very easy pass for me
Thank you for yet another great review Dan, ive been a fan since day one and i still get excited when i see a new MOTU review from you!
i would have made the stratos a new character as he was a different color and was evil in the mini comic
I quit collecting MOTU Classics about 5 years ago. They weren't cheap and Matty Collector got crazy greedy. NEWSFLASH: People pay bills. Btw, I'm glad I did. Everything for the last couple years has been "concept" ideas and "repaints", as we see here.
None of what you said is true like at all
Eternia’s answer to the Village People ?
could you review the new funko stranger things figures?
The horseman and super 7 charge big money, most of the time they want preorders, you can't buy anything from them on local retailers, there always seems to be issues with QC (there would probably be more QC complaints but most people don't open em), if you don't subscribe or preorder you usually miss out because they sale out in no time. I bought 5 of them and it was too aggravating. I'm done with this line. My next MOTU I buy will be at Target fall 2020.
Ugh...those Stratos wings are SUPER soft. Floppy and loose! They won't stay in position because of the weight of the wings...
Won't be buying these. Basically same parts we've had before but just repaints. Still really disappointed Thundercats are not being made anymore. Heman has nothing to offer anymore
Here's a challenge for you, Mr Dan. Try and review figures without using the word Gummy (or is it Gummi?). ;p
i will not the tree Pack not good find ihave all Figure
So we paid Premium prices for two sets so S7 can begin to get their s***t together? Its so lame, and despite I have a complete colection, this is it for me. The end of the line, ruined by other than mattel is quite a surprise..
MTB Fonseca Agreed. I already got these and have the other figures on pre-order, but if they are still "experimenting" and giving us crap, I'm done.
They sound like they're working hard to fix all these issues when using a different factory. I wouldn't quit the line now with all the new figs coming out. The future looks exciting. My thing is the long wait but as long as they get it write I'm sure the whole process will get better.
*right
I will not buy the three figures because I do not like them at all. I have the original color
Mattel's version is wayyyy better than super7s! They should of stayed with the Mattels factory...why did they change factory's????
Adam Jacobs Probably the money. They got a cheaper factory but I'm sure they'll get the future figures right.
First
Stratos in flesh color just looks weird.
