Masters of the Universe Collection

Not sure if this would fit in with the aesthetic of this MOTU line but how about having some destroyed vehicles on some upcoming bases ? maybe some Heroic warriors with part of a Roton or Land Shark on their base and some Evil Warriors with a wrecked Attak Trak, Battle Ram etc.

Right now, other than the "Hordak's Minion" that we announced, we're hoping to squeeze in two more solicits before the end of the year. Neither of these new items have been mentioned or "soft announced" by me or Chad so we're pretty stoked for them to show up as surprises! One in particular... guahhhhhh......

Going into next year, we're definitely starting that year with Teela with Trap Jaw not far behind... we want to find a good flow to release more items without overwhelming the collector, so we're always re-working the schedule.

So it's taking a bit longer to get this machine figured out and running, but the things we have in the works I couldnt be happier with... We have some of the most talented artists jamming on this stuff with us, Im so freaking stoked!

Thanks nerds! Cant wait for things to REALLY get rollin!

I am excited for Teela and trust she will complement She Ra nicely when ever she is done. Hope she can be shown by the Spring.

Wonderful news! Thanks a lot.

Iko Iko - Not sure about the website, that's something Chad has been focusing on, but I know it's in the works. And thanks! Im freaking stoked for Trappy!


melkor23 - Cant say just yet about Minion, he just got to paint. So aiming for end of the month for him to solicit, but it depends on how fast he can get through approvals, photography, etc.

Minion will not be shipped with Hordak. Hordak solicited in late May, and we literally started sculpt on Minion in early June, Hordak is already overseas and Minion isnt completed, and there's no way we can delay Hordak for him. Sorry.

And thank you for the advice on how we should release figures, but there are always going to be things that cause plans to change... basically, we had a plan, these two new pieces (who said they were statues?) were on the calendar, on track, and still are on track... Teela and Trap Jaw, were both on the calendar, were on track, then both had things come up that caused them to be pushed out. We cant push other pieces out for them just because we discussed Teela and Trap Jaw already. I mean... if it helps, we can never disclose anything and just let everything be a surprise if you prefer just so this doesnt happen again? But what's the fun in that?


majestic1 - That's an awesome idea and something we have discussed... I think it'd take just the right character with the right vehicle and the right context. We dont have vehicles worked into any designs yet, but we have some ideas to give additional context to help fill out the world a tiny bit more.


SDguy - Totally!


Augen - We definitely designed her so she could pair well with He-Man and She-Ra, at least I think so, but Ive been wrong before. And she should definitely be ready before Spring so long as nothing happens out of the ordinary... fingers crossed!


SONICobra - Ill say... NOTHING! They are both weirdly similar though, now that Im thinking about it... and an awesome way though!


Acolyte - Totally!

right on man, i get it - thanks for the updates. cant wait to see what you guys have in store for this line

Okay, then this will not happen, I suppose?

Chad might be cooking something up for international buyers who already purchased Hordak or purchase him in the future... but Id imagine if a bundle were to happen the international buyers would have to wait until Hordak's Minion is ready to ship for the two pieces to ship together.
