    12 inch retro MOTU figures.

    MOTU's take on those 12 inch budget super hero figures. Hopefully this link works. They look awesome.

    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    Wow, those are NICE!!! And I bet the price point is right around $10-12. Can't beat it.

      Given such a huge part of the MOTU aesthetic is that unique squat, I wouldn't have thought these would work in this 12" format. But those look pretty neat!

        These are AMAZING!! I'd buy the entire line over again in this scale. Mondo can keep their crappy $275 figures that fall apart!

          I really like how Mer-Man looks, these are pretty cool.

            He-Man's head sculpt is fantastic. None of the Masterverse He-Man head sculpts are even that good.

              More pictures. Toynewsi is calling this a 7 inch line.

                I like these, fun and likely cheap and the aesthetic is good. But I don't want them at the expense of Origins.

                That Mer-man, though....

                  Looks like they're implementing a one accessory per figure policy.

                    The fact that the head sculpts are bang on with the originals has me all in. I'm not a He-Man collector but I wouldn't pass these up if I saw them.

                      Why didn’t they put He-man’s iron cross on his armor instead of that other goofy-looking logo? Otherwise, great looking figures. Much better than the Masterverse crap, but a step down from Origins.

                        Other reports are saying these are 7” not 12”.

                          That means the head might work as a replacement for the recent 40th anniversary figure head.
