Really means a lot to see so many people are getting this and ranking it so high in their collections... Super super super glad everyone is loving this piece, and the set as well... huge thanks to everyone who supported this piece, especially everyone who bought both, means a ton that this / these were so well received.
We actually designed and did rough sculpts for both the He-Man & Battle Cat and the Skeletor & Panthor together, so Im glad that translated so well to both of the finished products. They were always intended to be STRONG stand-alone pieces FIRST, and work as a set as a BONUS. That's how I try to approach everything... Im glad we made it work here, especially with both pieces essentially being their own dioramas... huge props to Guillermo Barbiero specifically as lead sculptor on both of these for working with us to make these work so well.
To everyone dealing with breakage, replacements, and CS issues, Im sorry Im not a part of that and can help, but hoping you working with Eric more recently has helped / will help. I know there was a bit of a transition issue but it seems like recently things are going in a positive direction. Super stoked to have Eric on the team and for all this stuff to get sorted out.
Back to the art stuff, I dont think it's a secret that we'd love to do the OBVIOUS 3rd piece in the line, She-Ra and Swift Wind, but we have other plans for her 40th this year, and that's all I'll say on that for now...
About continuing into more CLASSICS, even not on mounts, we have had plans since early 2020 when we launched MOTU with Tweeterhead, and we had 3 finished CLASSIC designs with 4 other designs in the works... but then we realized we were biting off more than we could chew, and there would be conflicts with characters appearing in both lines too close to each other (ie - Classic Mer-Man and Legends Mer-Man) so we decided to focus primarily on the "LEGENDS" line and keep it to He-Man & Battle Cat as a stand alone in the Classics line to start, and if sales were there, to follow-up with the Skeletor & Panthor, and see where to go from there...
We have plans for more 1:6 scale pieces, to display with these pieces and our DC statues, that to us, Tweeterhead, is our main scale, and the LEGENDS being 1:5 was a carry over from where the line started previously at Sideshow. We want to keep that line going, obviously its my wil' baby
but I also love keeping the 1:6 scale line going, not just with CLASSICS, but other approaches to the BIG WONDERFULLY CRAZY WORLD OF MOTU... Who knows what we have planned next...
Anyways, glad Skeletor and Panthor is getting the love! Thanks again for all the support everyone!
