this vid made me remember something about the 200x series i loved...the loin cloth was specific to the character. statos' looked like feather, his looked looked like scales, tri-klops had a tech look. now everyone gets the he-man one
One thing I wanted to add before I read the rest of these top comments. I really think Pixel dan has the same mind as me.. Their is no question he knows he-man front and back.... I think Scott should be taking in Dan's Ideas on every figure that is being made... I've felt that since the beginning of this line...
I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the General. This figure is Awesome. From teh detailing to the extended head to the rattling tail. This figure is flawless, and my favorite so far from Eternos Palace randor, and Dekker.
The Snake-Men were always my favorite faction (mostly because I love reptiles). I'm new to the MOTUC line but I have this guy on preorder with Big Bad Toy Store (Along with Mosquitor). I've got a friend hooking me up with a Snake-Men 2-pack at the end of the month. I have to get King Hsss from Matty essentials at some point. Nice in the bio how they reverse his background. I think in the old comics after King Hsss was freed he scolded Rattlor and Tongue Lashor for joining the Horde.
Really, I'm glad you mentioned this, because I was actually thinking of trying out my 200X weapons and gear on my Classics line. When I finish these reviews I'm gunna give it a go. I might just decide not to sell my collection afterwards. I have everyone except for Mekaneck, He fell of my stand and broke a leg.. But I should still have his club somewhere... Thanks for the reminder...
damn your so lucky to get this guy so early. he's been one of my all time favs ever since I used play with my buddies one as a kid. tho thanks to your reviews I've started a MOTUC collection :).
I have no idea why...but I like the Filmation Rattlor the best...Heck, I like the bio for him and Tung Lashor..helps tie the Filmation show, MYP show and the vintage toyline.
Yes, Eventually Tung Lashor will be released, He's a top Motu figure, no question.. And speaking of Tung Lashor, I'm wondering which one they will make, I hope both the Animation figure, and the vintage toy figure, But If I had to decide which one, I'd have to pick the Toyline figure... If they don't make the cartoon figure, I will make one for sure, but I will wait till the line is finished... This figure can easily be made from reuse of parts.. From the snakemen 2pack for starters...
I forgot he was on the Horde in the Filmation series. I guess in the bio he defected because he didn't want to end up as dinner if he failed King Hiss.
Yeah their is a variant of Rattlor's vintage figure, One is yellow and the other is redish. I happened to have both, but sold my redish one, and kept the Yellow... I guess because my yellow one was in better shape...
The 200x is way better. Its similar to the series but lacks height. The General RatLor supposed to be huge just how The 5 horse men did justice for clawful 200x staction. So if ratlor was 8 or 8 1/2 inches. ..RatLor would be PERFECT.
The leader of the Snake Men King Hiss could not be added to either He-Man or She Ra because of 80's censorship, Rattlor & Tongue Lasher were only added to the Evil Horde only to sell their action figures which the animators made them look cute & stupid for the kids. 200X series shown Rattlor as he really supposed to be as the second command of the Snake Men only to King Hiss.
Now I will admit that I'm more of a 20xx Series Fan more so then the Filmation Era not I have nothing against the Retro Figures or the Designs but sometimes I personally wish they would do more of a Combination of both Eras in this Toyline more so then just one over the other except for first time actual character figures like Faceless One & Horde Prime In this case yes he is based on the Retro but looking at the 20xx Rattlor this guy just looks like another Trooper more so then a General
He can't ride any vehicle. Not with that solid tail. I don't know why he said that. And yes the 45-90° eye slit is strange at some angles. As an updated version, its magnificent! If only Frosta got this attention.
Yeah It's hard to deal with sometimes.. I loved the MYP Cartoon series, but hey look at the bright side. The MYP cartoon blew the rest of the eras cartoons out the m.f. window. Transformers, and G.I. Joe renegades sucked. We got it made. Emiliano was the man that made all the comics and all happen. He knows art the way it should be..
the armor was sculpted "but not included due to cost." virtually all the MOTUC sculpts are amazing (4 Horsemen!) but most of the figures lack their classic action features, no "twist waist for power-punch", absent accessories (like the armor mentioned) and they still want us to buy a subscription and pay $20-30+ for each one. add infamously bad production (backwards shoulders, limp ankles) and i want to know why Mattel is skimping and overcharging. SDCC exclusives mean we'll never get them. Grr.
Awesome........ Classic look is WAY better than the 200x version. Most of the 200x characters has the problem of having " to many notes" going for them.... Keeping it simple is better. No school like old school. ;)
Matthew Brown indeed. ..The only thing i wish the 200x lacked is hight. Making ratlor taller would make him exactly like the cartoon. Im sick and tired of All The classics have the same figure like a human Muscle Man.
I was ver disappointed with this figure. I was hoping the neca would make a staction similar to tung lashor. Neca was able to make the charecters similar to the 200x series which =huge bulkier stactions. Clawful tung lashor were big just like the cartoon. Ratlor supposed to be huge ,big. This figure looks super skinny. Small hands And feet. The 200x Ratlor would be a perfect figure if it had The hight.
Am I the only one to realize that Rotar and Twistoid are butt-ugly "Whizzers"? I don't own them. I'm only missing the vintage of these 2 idiots and the Italian-only (How? Why? Italy-only?).
I am trying to catalog all my dad's old toys; our basement & garages are full of thousand of toys; ...does anyone know about a toy that are dinosaurs & they turned into rocks? my dad says they are go-bots, but he doesn't remember the names of them. these are the only ones he doesn't have the packages for. thank u :-)
+Nerdcrafter Coley lol i have the cool neck popping one. It has the 1985 copyright. I had no idea what it was from until now though ha ha this one is not as cool as mine. this looks kinda lame
OMG!!! I remember having ALL the classics... i was a collector as a child, unfourtunantly i don't know where they are today :(
Rattlor was my first selfchosen toy figure as a child. The neck shot out. Was awesome.
The paint is just spectacular.
this vid made me remember something about the 200x series i loved...the loin cloth was specific to the character. statos' looked like feather, his looked looked like scales, tri-klops had a tech look. now everyone gets the he-man one
I remember have the vintage figure as a kid! They did good at recreating him it seems.
As a die-hard MOTU/MOTUC fan I enjoy your MOTUC video reviews looking forward to your review of Dragon Blaster Skeletor keep up the good work.
I think Rattlor had my favourite action feature as a kid. Really glad to see him in the new line. Great review Dan
I still have mine from when I was a kid. I LOVE MOTU!!

The snake with the staf is also the logo for docters

I love the Snake Men as well. Can't wait for the Snake Men 2-pack!
Rattlor was my fav in the vintage line!

one of the best MOTUC so far
damn your so lucky to get this guy so early. he's been one of my all time favs ever since I used play with my buddies one as a kid. tho thanks to your reviews I've started a MOTUC collection :).
Now on to Frosta, one of my favorite characters this year, I hope it's not a disappointment like The Sorceresses wings where....lol.
I see you have the Snakemen two pack figures but can't seem to find your review on them, have you just not done one yet?
I have no idea why...but I like the Filmation Rattlor the best...Heck, I like the bio for him and Tung Lashor..helps tie the Filmation show, MYP show and the vintage toyline.
I love that shirt! MOTU Mario style Two of the best things to come out of the 80s! :D

I love your shirt XD
JUST AWESOME ! GOOD REVIEW MR. EARDLEY !
Great review.
so i guess reviews of Dragon blaster Skeletor, the Snake men 2-pack and cy-chop are coming soon. Yahooo
5:43
Rattlor looks cool
I wonder if we'll get Modulok...
Yeah their is a variant of Rattlor's vintage figure, One is yellow and the other is redish. I happened to have both, but sold my redish one, and kept the Yellow... I guess because my yellow one was in better shape...
I want Dan's shirt!
Dan will we get a Modulok or Multibot do you think?
Rattlor is really cool I cant to get him. By the way where did you get your shirt its awesome.
Rattlor has the "nope.avi" action feature!
The 200x is way better. Its similar to the series but lacks height. The General RatLor supposed to be huge just how The 5 horse men did justice for clawful 200x staction. So if ratlor was 8 or 8 1/2 inches. ..RatLor would be PERFECT.
So true
Is mattel going to release tung lasher he was a light purple snake man that had a retractable tung.
Everyone hates Buzz Off but he is still my favourite. This guy is now a firm top 10.
My vintage Rattlor's neck isn't yellow. It's the same color as his head.
Sit on the wind rider = Snake on a plane.
The leader of the Snake Men King Hiss could not be added to either He-Man or She Ra because of 80's censorship, Rattlor & Tongue Lasher were only added to the Evil Horde only to sell their action figures which the animators made them look cute & stupid for the kids. 200X series shown Rattlor as he really supposed to be as the second command of the Snake Men only to King Hiss.
brutaaaaallllll!!!!!!!!!! awesome!!!! rattlor the general!!!!
Now I will admit that I'm more of a 20xx Series Fan more so then the Filmation Era not I have nothing against the Retro Figures or the Designs but sometimes I personally wish they would do more of a Combination of both Eras in this Toyline more so then just one over the other except for first time actual character figures like Faceless One & Horde Prime
In this case yes he is based on the Retro but looking at the 20xx Rattlor this guy just looks like another Trooper more so then a General
Where can I get that shirt!?!
I had the snake when i was a boy!! snif snif so nice reminds!
It would have looked better with his pupils where at a 90 degree angle. They should have also made his fangs pointed instead of having a round tip.
He can't ride any vehicle. Not with that solid tail. I don't know why he said that. And yes the 45-90° eye slit is strange at some angles. As an updated version, its magnificent! If only Frosta got this attention.
Why wait for the weapons pack when u can just simply use the armor from 200X Rattlor on classics Rattlor it really fits like a glove on him try it!
The neck not popping out in a striking motion ruined this figure for me
im trying to find one of these figures for cheap because i am new to this and i want to collect these.
well they HAVE taken inspiration from the 200X series too
the vintage was better because of the neck
This guy should have been leader of the Snake Men rather than the pathetic (in ANY era) King Hsss... Cool review!
NOOO, HE MISS THE ORIINAL BUTTON!! :O
I not sure about this figure... maybe cause I love 200x General character and toys
Yeah It's hard to deal with sometimes.. I loved the MYP Cartoon series, but hey look at the bright side. The MYP cartoon blew the rest of the eras cartoons out the m.f. window. Transformers, and G.I. Joe renegades sucked. We got it made. Emiliano was the man that made all the comics and all happen. He knows art the way it should be..

I DEMAND 200X SNAKE MEN !!!!! AND SNAKE ARMOUR HE-MAN !!!
Awesome........ Classic look is WAY better than the 200x version. Most of the 200x characters has the problem of having " to many notes" going for them.... Keeping it simple is better. No school like old school. ;)
7:20 Horde = Nexus XD
um...it takes inspiration from the 200x line.
the 2002 one was better
Matthew Brown indeed. ..The only thing i wish the 200x lacked is hight. Making ratlor taller would make him exactly like the cartoon. Im sick and tired of All The classics have the same figure like a human Muscle Man.
Matthew Brown I have the 2002
No it's not dude don't lie
You could have put the 200X armor on him.
the old is much better
excited about Rattlor...was never interested in him from the 80s.
you should have been I was
I was ver disappointed with this figure. I was hoping the neca would make a staction similar to tung lashor. Neca was able to make the charecters similar to the 200x series which =huge bulkier stactions. Clawful tung lashor were big just like the cartoon. Ratlor supposed to be huge ,big. This figure looks super skinny. Small hands And feet. The 200x Ratlor would be a perfect figure if it had The hight.
TMNT FEET!
Am I the only one to realize that Rotar and Twistoid are butt-ugly "Whizzers"? I don't own them. I'm only missing the vintage of these 2 idiots and the Italian-only (How? Why? Italy-only?).
Very boring head sculpt......
The General has no true allegiance save for his own ruthless ambitions!
I am trying to catalog all my dad's old toys; our basement & garages are full of thousand of toys; ...does anyone know about a toy that are dinosaurs & they turned into rocks? my dad says they are go-bots, but he doesn't remember the names of them. these are the only ones he doesn't have the packages for.
thank u :-)
+Sarah Brandy Peters (Gravydog316) oh Rock Lords lol ...now i need all their names ugh
These are very cool, but sorry, I'm a Transformers girl lol
The neck not popping out in a striking motion ruined this figure for me
+Nerdcrafter Coley lol i have the cool neck popping one.
It has the 1985 copyright.
I had no idea what it was from until now though ha ha
this one is not as cool as mine. this looks kinda lame
