The claim from Mattel is that the line of Masters of the Universe Classics action figures is coming to an end this year—that can always change. So, until that happens, I and Miss M will call it “The End”.

UPDATE:  Oops! we were lied to, there is a 2016 line coming, it was just a way to get sales, so Management was canned for false advertising and breaking the law–I hope they suffer for it, it will make up for all the people they screwed; if you don’t agree–blow me!

For the month of Jan we have a long lost Filmation …

Are you ready for a Vintage Toy of the Month that will whip you into a double dose of trouble? Let’s read on for a look at one of the original She-Ra: Princess of Power action dolls- Double Trouble!

With Double Trouble getting the Masters of the Universe Classics treatment this month (and a name change to boot) I thought it would make perfect sense to take a gander at the original Double Trouble. This action doll has a special place in my heart and in the story of She-Ra.

Released as part of the first wave of She-Ra action dolls …

As the most powerful Editor-In-Chief in the universe I stole this months MOTUC review from Miss M in a power play…just kidding, I actually bought Extendar from her and said I’d do the review because I wanted to open him…

On we go!

Extendar came out towards the end of the line in the 80’s and was one of the coolest figures that Mattel had offered for the masses—however, he was a bit harder to find then many of the others. I do however, remember going to a place called “Kiddie City” and there was a huge wall full of MOTU …

Ready for an all new Vintage Toy of the Month? I know it has been awhile since our last outing into the world of all that is good and vintage, but this latest vintage toy should more than make up for that. If you’ve been following the toy chatter around here than you have probably looked over the recent article about the all new Modulok that came out from the Masters of the Universe Classics Line. Well, thanks to the kind and gracious Paladin (NERDSociety’s editor-in-chief) I was sent a really cool vintage Modulok from the Masters of the Universe toy …

The year is coming to a close and so it’s finally time for MY very own top ten toys for the year 2013. Release date is not important, but what is important is that I acquired it this year.

Although I’ve been spending most of my time writing my K-ON! Fan fiction, I’ve still been collecting toys on the side, however there were some financial troubles and some items I thought I’d be getting fell through—but, what can you do. I’ve also decided to do it in themes or groupings, that way I can feature more than just simply 10 pieces.…

The Masters of the Universe Classics Filmation mini-sub enters its second month with the release of Shokoti! August was certainly the month for magical women on Mattycollector, and Shokoti can easily be checked off the list of long demanded figures to be made.

In fact, this marks the first time that Shokoti has ever been made in figure form. So what are we waiting for? Let’s look!

Like all the regular carded figures before her, Shokoti comes carded on the standard MOTUC bubble. She is described as the Evil Witch of Eternia. The pose that she is sporting in package is …

Sometimes you just have to go for it, you have to take something that you want to make better and get risky by applying paint, or trying your hand at sculpting; maybe even sew something up to enhance the piece to your liking…

My first customized action figure (since I was a kid). I chose Catra from the Masters of the Universe Classics line. Now, Catra was nice to begin with, sculpted in the form of the 80’s Filmation cartoon character from She-Ra, Princess of Power. However, I really wasn’t happy deep down inside; so what to do? I’ve always been …

In this, my final review of Masters of the Universe Classics—to be taken over in 2013 by Miss M—I am offering up a great pictorial of three very cool figures.
Buzz-Off is a very nice surprise that I received for “free”—he was “free” because subscription holders were given a payoff for Frosta having reversed forearms. Others have received Mer-Man or Stratos and apparently others here and there. I’m quite happy with getting Buzz-Off because I don’t have him at all—now I do.

So, let’s begin with Buzz-Off!

This Bee-Man comes packaged in the usual bubble and card—mine was thrown together quite …

That’s right, it’s the end of 2012 and I figured I would do a listing of MY OWN top 10 toys that I got this year—regardless of their original release date.

Lets begin with…

10: Stinkor, from Masters of the Universe Classics! That’s right, the Stink-man is just awesome and has a fan base to match (probably) Coming with enough accessories to dress him up as either the 200X version of the character or the 80’s version; Stinkor comes complete with his orange armor, Blue shield, blue stink-gun, blue gas mask and blue stink tanks. Also included is either a …

It’s the coming of winter and my present to myself is the snowy Temple of Darkness Sorceress! No, she isn’t covered in the cold white stuff; however she is pretty damn cool! OK, stop groaning!

Temple of Darkness Sorceress comes straight out of the mini comic to collector’s shelves sporting the all white outfit from the mini comic of the same name.

“White” Sorceress comes packaged in the usual card.

…and on the back of the box is the usual “also available” and a bio which is OK.

The side panel of the package has some info, but if you already …
