All things must come to an end, and for the first time I am happy that this toy line finally did. Mattel can make figures here and there, but it is done…so much misinformation this year.

The final figures of Masters of the Universe Classics actually do not disappoint—there are negatives as usual; maybe if I was a fanatic my story would be told in a different way; but what people need to understand is, I have 30 years of MOTU in my veins and I am critical of what Mattel destroys, changes and even does right. I would never just …

It’s a jam-packed month for Masters of the Universe Classics as October finds a way to be terrifying yet smelling so sweet. Let’s get into it!

Up first is a two pack that I will not be opening. There are many reasons for that, mostly because I have a lot to say about Perfuma. Terror Claws Skeletor and Flying Fists He-Man come packed in the same two pack box set that other MOTUC releases have had before. Visually it is a very nice two pack.

Flying Fists He-Man is the weaker of the two for me. The armor and face sculpt …

While others are going back to school, come on back to Masters of the Universe Classics with a timely review on the importance of He-Man movie figures being a part of the toy line. Since the moment fans found out MOTUC would be an all encompassing toy line featuring a variety of MOTU figures, fans clamored for figures based off the He-Man movie that were once made in vintage form. I have been kind about those previous releases in the Classics line, so let’s find out what I have to say about the latest offering: Saurod!

Released on the standard MOTUC …

I am seeing something She-Ra. I am seeing that beyond the Whispering Woods there is a magical figure that has traveled a long way. My omnivision tells me that Peekablue is the Masters of the Universe Classics release for July, and she is finally here! Let’s check her out.

Peekablue is one of the Princess of Power figures from the MOTUC line and she comes in the regular MOTUC packaging. I am fond of Peekablue. Her powers in the She-Ra cartoon made her an important force in the Great Rebellion. However I was more closely connected to her vintage toy release. …

The always awesome Paladin has already reviewed the slithery Sssqueeze, but the love for Masters of the Universe Classics still goes on for the month of June with the look at Multi-Bot! Like the transforming body combinations of Modulok, Multi-Bot is a MOTUC figure with some variety! Let’s check this out!

Multi-Bot comes with a special box. The cover art for this box is perfect. The large image of Multi-Bot is fearsome in his standard look. However it is the tiny images all around the box that add to the overall awesomeness. The various forms that Multi-Bot can take are endless. …

What an interesting figure for the month of May; it is Blast Attak! Packaged as usual on the standard card.

One of the last figures in the line, Blast Attak has mixed origin stories that are made more complicated in the bio on the back.
To simplify, we will use the story from the mini comic he came with called “Revenge of the Snake Men.” So, what does this mean? It means that the snake sticker on the front is accurate! Something in MOTUC is accurate!!! The end of the world is approaching…

Blast Attak was created by King Hssss, he …

April is the month for angels. That’s not really true. I’m just actually thrilled that Angella was released in the Masters of the Universe Classics line after all these years! That’s right folks, the Queen of Brightmoon is here and with her release, fans now have the entire first series of vintage She-Ra figures in Classics forms!

Angella fits nicely in the standard MOTUC packaging. She looks beyond cool with her wings and stance in pack. It makes me question my motives for removing her, but come on now, she is totally getting out of her bubble.

Flipped around the card …

JUST A WARNING: RATED M FOR MATURE, COURSE LANGUAGE–VERY…

What the hell is this? Naked He-Man? You know if you look close enough, he appears to resemble the He-Man from the original mini comics…but the name is wrong, it was He-Man who left the jungle to protect Castle Grayskull and Eternia—not to mention the two halves of the Power Sword. Why does the package say Oo-Larr?

I’ll tell you why; the terminated Scott Neitlich was still in grade school and was playing his own game sitting on the floor with his He-Man guys. Now, I don’t blame him for the shipping …

Although I was never a fan of Masters of the Universe Versus the Snake Men, I have to admit that this 2 pack is really well thought out and it is very cool!

The back of the box has bios for both, pretty cheesy, I have really given up on this made up story that strays from the cartoon. I’ll say it again, for people who grew up with He-Man and for new fans; the bios should be history of the character, not a weak story that retells everything that people know. But, the bastard who did damage the storyline has …

We are in a new year, but there is still time to check back on the final 2014 releases of Masters of the Universe Classics! December 2014 was a banner month for the toy line as fans got two figures in the main subscription: Gwildor, and my personal favorite, Mermista! So let’s check everything out.

Up first is Gwildor. Released on a larger card and bubble, Gwildor is a slightly smaller figure based on the 1987 Masters of the Universe movie. He might be small, but he comes with some heavy duty accessories. His staff and two versions of the Cosmic …
