Thundercats and Masters of the Universe get a crossover
This is how the public relations announcement spins it:
The collaboration of two iconic 80s brands, Masters of the Universe and ThunderCats, yields an action figure of the Ever-Living Evil of Eternia, Skell-Ra! This toy crosses over Skeletor of MOTU with Mumm-Ra of ThunderCats. He comes with 2 swappable heads, a reversible purple / red cape, and swappable harness and skirt armor pieces, so he can evolve from Skell-Ra into Mumm-Ra. The Sword of Plun-darr completes the double-edged picture. $29.99
There have been Ninja Turtles crossovers with He-Man.. and now this .. each time the price goes up a bit, but Thundercats fans have felt cheated.
Will this bring out the midlife crisis and them next 2?
Judging by how the Masters line has been releasd, this will be coming to a store near you — or maybe won’t.
They are playing on the nostalgia.. Folks, kids won’t buy this. People ages 40 through 50 will. I should know I’ve been buying He-Man feeling like a kid again when I do.

The take our money sketchbook series
Some might say the Mattel toy company is digging into the archives just to give us what we want. Others might overwhelmingly say, “Enough with the side series—how much more money do you want to take from us?!”
Hordak and Grizzlor from the Masters of the Universe realm are getting their own two-figure release. They don’t resemble the cartoon or the original action figure versions from the 1980s. Instead, they represent the concept art sketches of what they looked like prior to the creation of the action figures or the eventual hit series.
It’s a lot. Many fans are still frustrated that the original Origins re-release never really concluded. Then came the cartoon-style representations of the action figures. And now, in the midst of all this, we’re getting a potential new side story featuring sketchbook-inspired figures.
Don’t get me wrong—if I see them in the wild, I’ll probably pick them up. I might even order them online when they’re available. But it’s becoming overwhelming.
Ok… when can we buy??

Cool blend of horror movie characters with HE-MAN action figures
Horror movie fans who once played with HE-MAN toys in their childhood may have the perfect gift ready to be purchased: Horror icons in the shape and style of MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE toys..
The toy line was unveiled by FUNKO at a toy fair.. it is called the SAVAGE WORLD HORROR LINEUP.
Reaction has been mixed.. But why? … the nostalgia of the 80s coupled with hugely instrumental horror movie characters–all born during the same time period by the way ..
Even the packaging is similar to the containers that contained the HE-MAN toys of the 80s generation.
