ok back when I was in the Navy and after I left the Philippines to come back to San Diego, I was lived in what was considered Little Philippines. There were bakery's & grocery stores that catered to the Filipinos. At one of the grocery stores I was able to rent Filipino movies & bootleg them onto VHS. One of them has now become of interest:
Sheman: Mistress of the Universe A spoof of the Filipino fantasy icon Ang Panday and He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.

Pando is a Blacksmith who dreams of becoming a Superhero. One day his dreams came true when a gay hermit called Gayskull, who turns him into a superhero so he can save the kidnapped barrio children from the Evil Skeleton. However though, Due to Gayskull's Sexuality. This turns Pando into She-Man. And rides a giant butterfly into battle.
Now I added this movie to my collection of sci-fi/comic book/horror Filipino movies and forgot about it. It wasn't until all this talk about the "Woke" version of the new MOTU that my boyfriend dug this this out and asked if it was on youtube yet. Got lucky and found it so here is the one true She-Man:
