i didn't know that one was theirs, kinda cool but i wouldn't be against a newer one a bit closer to the classic look.

It´s a double edged sword, in my opinion. People who are into this line since day one and already own all the mains (like myself) couldn´t care less for a revisit of He-Man, Skeletor, She-Ra and Co., at least not within the next few years. They would rather like to see new character getting made. And people who jumped on the train later and missed the heavy hitters are eager to get the mains to have a complete collection (understandable, of course) and might even be hesitant to buy any new characters without owning them.

My favorite MOTU figure was Snout Spout. I believe he only appeared in the Shera cartoon though. Beastman and Mantenna were also favorites.

Or the third edge to the sword - people like me who own most of the originals and still want new Tweeterhead versions

Yep, Snout Sprout was only in the She-Ra cartoon. What's weird though is he was in the He-Man toy line but was in her cartoon. My brother had his action figure. So I think he really was meant to be MOTU and created under that license. Could get lucky, Sonic Boom

I will be totally frank that IF PoP characters are ever made, I will probably only buy 3 or 4. She-Ra, Catra, Shadow Weaver, and Frosta. Castaspella would make the cut if she was made before Frosta. I know Igo has an affinity for Mermista, which I find so very interesting.

Same as all the Horde members.

So question for anyone and everyone. I know Shadow Weaver and Catra are considered POP, but what about Leech, Grizzlor and Mantenna? I always liked them too.

Leech and Mantenna are my two favorite Horde members after Hordak.

I always loved the Filmation version of Modulok too.

They were released in the original MOTU toy line. Odds are strong they count as MOTU proper.

MOTU is nominated this year for the Toy Hall of Fame.

https://www.toyhalloffame.org/

I'm going to vote for MOTU and billards. Two games of my childhood. I also had a Cabbage Patch Kid, but I have always hated dolls so my brother and I chopped off its hair. Then had it be the enemy and destroyer of Legos, TMNT, My Little Ponies, and MOTU.
