I love my MOTU Classics Battle Armor Skeletor, but he's a bit difficult to review. For one, I've already reviewed most of this figure at least three times already. He does include some swanky new armor and a fan-demanded axe, but can I really prattle on about that for a whole review? I guess we'll find out...
My Club Eternia subscription finally arrived yesterday and it's starting to make these reviews a bit less timely, but with more King Hssss figures to be released next Friday, I actually feel like I'm a bit ahead of the games on this one! The only thing is, King Hssss left me feeling more or less underwhelmed.
We’re a little behind with our reviews, so I’m giving Noisy a hand with the last MOTUC figure from February. In the MOTUC Canon, we learn that Count Marzo created the Shadow Beasts as his own personal army the first time he tried to capture the throne. But he was still no match for Keldor and Randor’s Super-Brother-Powers and was summarily defeated and turned into a dwarf, while his army was banished to live in the shadows of Mount Barathrum.
While I had a ton on fun with Bane Week, it caused some MOTU reviews to be delayed. Maybe we could do a MOTU theme week one day - I'm sure Mattel would love to sell 5 new MOTU Classics toys in one month, wouldn't they? Today, we'll look at one of the three MOTU items for February, Preternia Disguise He-Man.
Okay, this review is a little late. The Great Wars Weapons Pak was released back in November, but the holidays kept me a little too busy to haul out the store and the review fell back on the schedule. I had some time last week during Dorkey's Japan coverage and the Great Wars Pak finally get its time in the spotlight.
Got that morning after feeling? I know I do. I not only spent all weekend being abused by toy companies trying to take their money, I foolishly vowed to have all the IAT Checklists updated before the weekend was out (they are!) Once I was done, I remembered there was still that little matter of doing some Armchair Coverage...
