MOTUClassics.Com: Optikk Review

If you’ve doubted that MOTU Classics was hot, if you’ve dismissed the clamor each month as hype, if you’ve wondered what the fuss is about when the figures roll in a week later, I give you Optikk. Optikk is from a corner of the MOTUverse that few fans care for, a character that even we at IAT had little more than a passing awareness of last year, and a guy that might have trouble getting some respect. Until now. Because in MOTU Classics, even a guy like Optikk blows out in fifteen minutes.

MOTUClassics.Com: Weapons Pak Review

The MOTU Weapons Pak. I never had one as a kid. A black marker and the sacrifice of Zodac's gear was the closest I ever got. When MOTU Classics took off, I hoped Mattel would resurrect the idea of a weapons pak. One of the main reasons was because I hoped it would include an orange shield and axe for Faker. This first weapons pak, labeled Heroic Warriors, doesn't have those, but it still has plenty of cool pieces. Still, how do you review 19 weapons? We weren't sure. They're all sturdy and painted well. What else? Well, when we can't be informative here at IAT, we turn to cheap humor. Here's 15 Minutes at the MattyCollector Weapon Shop.

ItsAllTrueReview:
MOTU Classics Evil Lyn

That's right, you get not one, but two MOTU Classics Reviews today! Club Eternia subscribers received two figures this month. The Club Exclusive Wun-Dar and the regular April figure, Evil Lyn. If you weren’t a subscriber, you had six minutes to duke it out with the WSOD for this figure. I was online trying to pick up the Weapons Pak and couldn't get to the site until after Lyn was gone. Yep, Lyn sold out in the same timeframe as Moss Man with the WSOD working hard to slow us down. It sure ain't easy trying to buy MOTU figures.
