From the outside, this rule appears hard to follow. <\/p>\n<p><strong>We are working with multiple Mattel departments on how much 200X influence can be in the MOTUC line. Toy Guru is a huge fan of the 2002 series and we will incorporate details when we can, but all will be \u201cClassic-ized\u201d similar to how we did Chief Carnivus.

Cornboy sculpted it because he felt many fans lost the headband and don\u2019t even remember having one. We would have loved to include it but we were only able to include two heads.
