I find it amusing how some ppl hoped teela would be a lesbian with Andra but they pull a 1-80 and made my old ship adam x teela Canon after so many long years to finally see them together and this is proven with the recent revolution trailer.

Clearly the Bad Guy

Tomorrow’s my birthday, which, as you can imagine, I’m super excited for. Already, I’m getting birthday presents in the mail, and so, I decided to talk about one of them today. It’s fitting that the last review of 2022 is this dude, considering how we started 2022, and also considering what a dumpster fire the year turned out to be. Let’s end the year how we started it: looking at a creepy skull face. Now, let’s delve into “Masters of the Universe Origins 200X Skeletor” and see if he deserves a spot on your shelves.

My first exposure to “Masters of the Universe” was as a kid in 2002 when Cartoon Network aired the rebooted series. I absolutely adored Skeletor. He was sinister, proudly evil, comedic, and also a legitimate threat. His own minions lived in fear of him and he rode around on a panther. Unlike the Filmation Skeletor, who I am also very fond of, he was funny without being a joke, and viewers knew this was someone to dread. In this series, we did see an origin for Skeletor. 16 years ago, Skeletor, then called Keldor, tried to conquer the world and found himself opposed by the man who would be He-Man’s father, Randor, leading the other heroes. In the final battle, he tried throwing a vial of acid at Randor, who deflected it into Keldor’s face. Yeah, that was a bit intense. Keldor fled and made a deal with the demonic sorcerer Hordak to be transformed into Skeletor, since acid to the face tends to be a bit deadly, and Keldor wanted to live longer than the next hour. He and his minions were sealed behind a mystic wall for 16 years, though they eventually escaped to do battle with He-Man and his band of do-gooders.

This Skeletor will be old enough to drink next year!

This figure’s really interesting to me, because it’s an Origins figure, meaning that it’s an updated design from the original line of figures in the 80’s, but it’s meant to emulate a figure from 2002, released in honor of the 40th anniversary of the “He-Man and the Masters of the Universe” franchise. Skeletor does come out looking good, but if you know the 2002 figure, you can really see where the designers had to make compromises with the design to make it work with the Origins toys. On the upside, if you don’t know the 2002 figure, then you won’t notice this at all, since he’s just a straightforward Skeletor with no gimmicks. He looks exactly like how Skeletor should look, he has a very basic design, and he honestly works as a good first Skeletor figure for people looking to get into the Origins line.

Like all Origins figures, Skeletor has fantastic articulation. He’s very posable and fun to play with, and his chest piece and skirt, which are removable with some difficulty, don’t get in the way of his movements. Just know that they’re made of a softer plastic and can be bent out of shape if you’re not careful.

Once sold out his entire team to see if he could hire actually competent staff.

Skeletor comes with two accessories: his magic Havoc Staff and his sword from the 2002 cartoon. The Havoc Staff is unchanged from every other Origins Skeletor, so not really much to say there. It’s a purple staff with a ram’s head, and it fits in Skeletor’s hand. His sword, meanwhile, both looks cool and is my one problem with the figure. The 2002 Skeletor’s sword could split in half into two swords, and in their combined form, they actually had two handles. Each side of the sword even looked different, to show kids that they were two swords stuck together. This Skeletor’s sword has the two handles, the different designs on each side of the sword, and even sculpted line down the middle of the blade like the combined sword from 2002 had. The issue is, though, this sword doesn’t split in two like the 2002 one. It looks cool and fits in Skeletor’s hand, but the fact it has all the signs of being two swords but isn’t bugs me. I can live with it, but it’s still something to note if you’re getting this toy.

Dark plastic really does not photograph well. I mean, at all. Pretend you can see the detailing.

Other than my issue with the sword not being able to split, there is one other problem I have with this toy: there’s nowhere to store the sword. Most Origins figures don’t have a place to store accessories, so that shouldn’t be an issue, but my most recent Origins Skeletor is Battle Armor Skeletor, who has a place to store his sword, so I can’t help but be a little annoyed, especially since the 2002 figure did have a storage spot on his back.

Now for the moment of truth: would I recommend this figure? Absolutely. He’s a really solid Skeletor other than a few details that I admit are me nitpicking and comparing this figure to one from twenty years ago. He’s also only about $12-$18, depending on where you get him. I know that’s a wide range of prices. Toy prices have been kinda weird lately, and most stores with a toy aisle have He-Man stuff. But I would definitively recommend this toy for fans both young and old, and I for one really enjoy him. Also, it just hit me that I watched the show this guy’s from over 20 years ago. It’s seriously been over 20 years. I’m 31 tomorrow. Oh God, I’m old. Anyways, this is JS, signing off and wishing you Happy Toy Hunting!

Our Sun is not yellow

Our nearest star isn't so normal contrasted with the other stars in the discernible universe. It isn't even yellow, truth be told. The real nature of our sun is white, but since of the world's atmosphere , we consider it to be yellow.

Likewise, we live in a one-star framework, which is additionally not all that normal. Practically half of recognizable star frameworks are consolidated of at least two stars. The nearest star framework to Earth is called Alpha Centauri, which is only 4,37 light years away and comprises of three stars - Alpha Centauri A (formally Rigil Kentaurus), Alpha Centauri B (authoritatively Toliman), and Alpha Centauri C (formally Proxima Centauri).

WIP.

This is what happens when some poor bastards thinks that kidnaping Lord Hordak’s wife and child is a good idea.

Entrapta is not amused.

Sun-Man and the Rulers of the Sun

Sun-Man, Space Sumo, Pig Head

- from Masters of the

Universe Origins

- by Mattel

I've had my eyes on this gorgeous 3-Pack for a while now, and when I finally saw one last set with a clearance sticker, I knew it was my last chance. And I'm so happy I grabbed it.

Incredible colors on this set. The armor and the weapons and the big vibrant use of primary colors and pastels. They look amazing.

One thing to note is the new head sculpt on Sun-Man. The flat top is actually shared between Sun-Man and Space Sumo. But I think I prefer it to the original. It's more distinct from He-Man, young and adventurous.

At first it seems like a cheap reuse of parts, but it's hard to even notice until you look at the figures up close. It makes me imagine two best bros fighting evil and working out. A head sculpt that comes with its own headcannon.

Sun-Man - The hero of the line. A great sculpt, and incredible colors on his armor. The wings are a little cumbersome, but true to the original. And just a very cool looking hero.

Space Sumo - The sumo that dresses like a ninja. A simple toy but a very fun one. And I love a removable mask.

Pig-Head - Another one with incredible colors. I love the neon pastels. He looks like Lisa Frank and Frank Frazetta designed Gannon.

The big play pattern of MOTU Origins is the swappable parts. This gives you a ton of options to make your own outfits and armors. Even your own characters. See my stealth Sun-Man, using the enemy armor and weapons (in this instance I choose to interpret Pig-Head's legs as armor)

It's so exciting to see Yla Eason's creations come to life like this, with so many incredible new toys in a fun and play-foward line like MOTU Origins. I'm definitely grabbing the next 3-pack as soon as I see it.
