I dunno, did you watch Masters of the Universe? Seems pretty accurate to me.

I'm really puzzled that they chose that guy to have in their lovely fan movie, when I grew up it was all about Ram-Man or Man-E-Face and whatnot, not loving Cyclops. His name isn't even a stupid pun or has 'Man' in it, guy is a total loser.

Didn't his neck extend? I think you twisted his legs to do it. Movie needs a Fisto.

I wonder why they didn't include Man-At-Arms. That guy always struck me as one of the more iconic He-Man characters, and his rad mustache would have fit right in with the porn aesthetics they're apparently shooting for.

Grendels Dad posted:I love He-Man. When I was a kid I had all of the series 1 - 3 figures except for the battle armor He-Man and Skeletor. I had 3/4 of the series 4 figures. I had several of the vehicles, Castle Grayskull, and Snake Mountain. When we moved from San Diego we had a big garage sale. I sold everything, 2 garbage bags full, to a fat mexican dude for $20. When my dad found out he was pissed. He said that that guy was probably going to flip them at the San Diego swap meet and triple his money.

I know a dude that was put in charge of a million dollar bank account to hunt down every He Man toy in the best condition possible, and get custom figures made for a character or two from the cartoon that were never in the toyline, for Eminem.

Ah I'd forgotten about Shadow Weaver (and every She-Ra character that wasn't She-Ra and Hordak apparently). Was she supposed to be related to Orko in some way because the similarity in their design doesn't seem like an accident.

Captain America had the Serpent Society, GI Joe had Serpentor even though the whole frigging evil society was already called Cobra. Did people in the 70s and 80s just drop a special kind of acid that made them really fond of snakes?

A lot of these characters (well, Gi Joe, He Man, and Transformers) were driven by the toy lines rather than the other way around, so maybe they had a bunch of snake molds at the factory that they wanted to use? I guess snakes are fun and kinda scary to kids too, but I think the toy thing is probably more likely.

They have a toy discussion over at the BSS comic book movie thread right now and someone pointed out how most weird toys come about because the cartoons change things too slowly so the toy company comes up with random stuff, in the case of Transformers and GI Joe that seems to be step one and then finds its way into the cartoons.

Serpentor, 1986 Serpent Society, 1985 Kobra Khan (first evil snake guy in He-Man), 1984 So it was all pretty close together.

Jay 2K Winger posted:Serpentor, 1986 Thanks, that was quick. I was stuck reading He-Man entries on Wikipedia. I'm still not sure what to make of that, though. I guess it would make sense if there was a successful movie coming out around that time that featured snakes, but I am once again coming up blank. edit: Haha a quick search told me Jake The Snake debuted in the WWF 1986, drat those were some snaky times.

Comic writer Larry Hama had pitched an idea for a comic book that would feature the son of Nick Fury leading a squad of soldiers vs Hydra. Marvel turned it down, but later, when Hama agreed to write the G.I Joe comic (after everyone else offered it had turned it down) he simply dusted off the the Fury vs Hydra concept and used it for G.I. Joe. And know you know. And knowing is half the battle.
