who the hell is Fangman? anyway as i've said before only character i'd probably be 100% likely to buy is Keldor, but a good Skelly will be hard to resist, and as long as Orko is priced accordingly to his size i'll be all over him too. also King Hiss if done well (way more 200X then vintage as far as looks) he will also creep his way onto my "very probably" list

Maybe He-man is more popular than Thundercats but nevertheless this poll is really showing that it's He-man and Skeletor first and then there are all the other characters which may be popular among some but there certainly aren't any real stand outs. Sure, Trap-jaw and Evil-lyn are a bit more popular than others but even they are far behind the two main characters...

Just bustin your chops :), but I disagree, and I'll tell you why. I think what happened with Thundercats was a little different. I think going with the Thundercats team after Mummra and Lion-O was a slight misstep. While Tygra looked cool, I just don't think he and the rest of the team is as visually interesting as a lot of the MotU characters. Had PCS gone with another villain after Mummra, I think we could be having a different conversation. I also think that MotU is a much more popular license. Just my opinion! :)

Yeah... That green, lizard-like villain from TCats is pretty cool looking. But if PCS released that guy as a statue now I don't know how much money I'd put on it selling out. Just a feeling I have.

And like I said while He-man is perhaps more popular...the poll has spoken, I feel.

We'll see how it goes. :thinking:

He-Man and Skeletor should not be included in the poll because they are a sure thing.

If this line had only six statues, the other four I would like to see be made are Man At Arms, Teela, Evil Lyn and Beastman.

3 Heroes, 3 Villians

I agree with Lori on this Gag's...Thundercats was NEVER as popular as He-man...in the 80's it was MOTU, Transformers and GiJoe...those are the top 3...Thunbdercats was a great series, but again the following was not even a close 2nd. So you are way off. Till this day MOTU sells, just look at the new classics line,and then look at the new Thundercats line started last X-mas (if it still exists)...Nuff Said

Its the same for every license ER. Marvel is the same (Hulk, Cap, Spiderman, Wolverine, Iron Man).

DC is the same way (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman)

MK is the same way (Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Shao Kahn)

MOTU is the same thing. All licenses have the most popular characters that most would want most. That doesn't say that they do not want any of the other characters.

Let me give you an example: Skeletor is far from my favorite MOTU character, but guess who would be my top three charcters? He-Man, Skeletor, Fisto.

That's why Matty will be releasing him in 1st quarter of next year. And during the showing of all the new figures, Fangman got a pretty good size ovation from the crowd and Power Con. Fangman is a cool character, but even I admit he is not a character I would make into a decent size edition. This is a special character that Jerry could do as a real, limited exclusive of say 50.

But even I must admit, I wouldn't even think about Fangman until MOTU statue line hopefully becomes a hit and tons of statues of other more popular characters have been done.

I for one would love to see Shadoweaver, Hordak, Bow, and Mantenna way, way, way before I see Fangman.

See Spazzy before you make this comment you need to understand the reasons why the line stopped from The Four Horsemen. Once you find that out, it becomes understandable as to why it did not do as well as it should.

Firstly, you have to look at the intention of the Four Horsemen. The 4H biggest passion is the action figure. Just for other peoples information, the 4H did some of the best work on McFarlane's Spawn and other figures in the Spawn action figure line before they got into the 200X Masters of the Universe. They had a little history (bio) up on their website a long time ago about how they got into MOTU and DC action figures. But anyways, the statue line was more of an afterthought. They decided to make a He-Man for one of the cons and it garnered attention and from there they decided to make Skeletor. Skeletor became popular amongst the MOTU crowd that there was clamoring for more characters seeing how awesome the Skeletor was. There was never any big intention to make a huge line of characters in statue form at 1/5 scale.

Secondly and more importantly, three things really hampered this 1/5 line of MOTU statues.

1)Cost - I remember on the 4H website they had made mention numerous times how expensive it was to make these statues and stactions (that can be explained another day why that line ended). To curb the cost, they made pretty big edition sizes for all their statues. The number for Clawful was 750 and trap Jaw I believe was 1000. This was years ago keep in mind. The Skeletor had a much lower edition size and it sold out and went for good money on the aftermarket. During this time, SS edition sizes were low in comparison and there was much more collectibility with their line.

2)Lack of Advertisement - Honestly, I didn't even know about the MOTU statues until I happened (the operative word) to see a He-Man statue from the Con in one of the stores in Pasadena, CA. I inquired about it, as I never saw it before. Well, after that, I tracked down and researched all I could to find out about them, which led me to the 4H and all the work they had done prior to MOTU. Tri-Klops was actually my first MOTU statue, and it was phenomenal and I was hooked. But the fact I was collecting statues at the time and never heard anything about MOTU statues shows just how little press or talk there was.

3)Shoddy Packaging (yes Jerry, they did shoddy before you thought about it...so don't feel too bad) and poor QC (especially with Trap Jaw and Clawful).
I've said it before, and I will say it again. You CANNOT sell a customer an expensive product and ship it in sh!ttY packaging. It just doesn't work, and it lends itself to people viewing a company as CHEAP!!! The styrofoam was crumbly and cheap as hell. When I got my Clawful, I was so worried because he was heavy as hell, and he was poking through the styrofoam. In terms of QC, the Trap Jaw had quite a few paint issues. I was one of the fortunate ones to get a perfect Trap Jaw. I remember going to He-Man.org and reading post upon post how the QC on Trappy was just horrid. This turned a lot of people off the line for the amount of money they were paying $300 for 1/5. So all you people that complain about SS now, you need to look at this line first. SS is pretty fair with their prices (at least they were).

So when you look at all these issues, not to mention the main issue being the MOTUC line was being kicked around at this time, you can see why this line was doomed from the beginning.

PCSC has a great foundation to do MOTU due to a few factors: 1)Great resume of statues of popular licensed lines; 2)Much more limited run of statues for bigger at similar prices; 3)Advertising and distribution (something 4H lacked greatly) through SS and other word of mouth on the internet; 4)MOTUC is in the eye and minds of many currently and is doing extremely well; 5)High quality (or better packaging) than previous 4H statues; 6)Great sculpting and solid QC (hey, the eyes and crap eating mouth of Chun-li is Capcom's buffoonery).

I've seen a couple chime in with concerns of Jerry doing MOTU statues. There is a market for MOTU statues of high quality, especially at the low edition runs Jerry wants to do. If 300/150 runs of Kitana is any indication of a popular character, MOTU definitely has more potential to excel even far more than MK and SF. MOTU fans are hardcore fans. I know, cause I can attest to that. As much as I love MK, MOTU blows it out of the stratosphere in terms of want. The only license that destroys MOTU is the greatest license in the history of the world as far as I am concerned, and that is the almighty Transfomers. Thats it! For others, it might be GI Joe or Looney Toons. Outside of those I can't think of anything bigger and more loved than MOTU.

This line will do well if the sculpts and paints are top notch.

NO!!!! I can tell you that already! Why? Because there are many characters in MOTU that are mainstays and popular....unlike TCats that only have a few. IN MOTU there are many, and I am not talking about Fisto here.

there are plenty of mainstays in the T-Cats, and even still they never even got as far down as the b-listers so that argument is doubly invalid

Honestly I think the reason the Thundercat line ended was release schedule. If Jerry would have put up either Panthro or Cheetara up instead of Tygra the line would still be living if you ask me.

you can always commission someone to do Orko, seems it wouldn't be difficult to create him. If Orko is considered I hope it isn't as a stand alone piece, but maybe an add on for another character statue. Like He Man.

No way. Orko is someone that is essential to MOTU. He needs his own statue and I think Jerry will do so.

Like who? You and I both now that the mainstays are the four cats (Lion-O, Cheetara, Panthro, Tygra) and then Mumm Ra.

Who the hell is Slythe? Is he that Silver costumed character on rollerblades?

See that's what I'm talking about. Oh...maybe he is that green skinned lizard? Not sure......sorry T-Cats fans, outside of the big 5, I don't know anyone else except Wily Kit and Kat.

That's alright, No Panthro for us, No Fisto for you. It's a wash!

see thats just not true, theres no way in hell any of the main mutants (Slythe especilly) are any less known then 90% of the He-Man crew, you think anybody outside the die hards knows who the hell Fisto, Roboto, Tounge Lasher or hell i bet you'd be hard pressed to find anybody that could correctly name Beastman that isn't a die hard

I agree with the Slythe thing. If you know Buzz Off's name, you know Slythe's name. :laugh:

No, because the difference is, there are sooo many great MOTU characters, that I can do without him.

Fisto and Roboto are not obscure characters. Tounge Lasher I can see as more obscure.

not to you, just as there are quite a few T-Cats secondaries that are not obscure to plenty of people. not arguing that He-Man has doesn't have more of a secondary cast, but to say T-Cats doesn't have more then 4 "names" is just silly

I didn't say that Mr. Yac. But its pretty common knowledge that MOTU is a MUCH bigger franchise / license than T-CATS.

That's not to disrespect the T-CATS mind you. I like them too. In fact that Mumm-Ra is quite an unbelieveable statue. I admire it every time I go to Frank and Sons Collectibles. I marvelled at it again today at the same vendor that has it in his display case.
