Masters of the Universe Classics: Year by Year - 2011

Glad to have you back! Want to take a look at the Masters of the Universe Classics released in 2011? Of course you do! This is your sorta thing, isn't it? You're freaky like that. I get it. Come on in, lemme show you around.

Weapons Pak 3: The Weaponing (Oct '12)

Man, they kept these things coming!  Which is good for me, 'cause I like accessories!  Dunno if you've heard.

A Childhood Drawing Come to Life (May '12)

So Masters of the Universe Classics offered an extra subscription this year: The 30th Anniversary sub.  You saw the first guy: Fearless Photog.  It was the perfect way to get that old 80's contest winner into the toyline, because the 30th Anniversary series is a small batch of figures created by various folks either involved with the line or...well, whoever Mattel contacted that wanted to make a figure.  Most importantly though, they held a new create-a-character contest, so technically we get two winners of such contests in one series!  That's six figures total: Two contest winners (the one from the 80's and a new one), three figures made by inside Mattel folks (two designers and one brand manager), and one made by a big-name comic artist.

The Four Horsemen Must have an Actual Dragon (Apr. '12)

'Cause otherwise I dunno where they got this awesome sculpt except out of their badass imaginations. 

Thunda PAWNCH (Apr. '12)

Raiding the Wind and OMG COLORS (Dec. '11 and Jan. '12)

The Flying Horse, Bubbly She-Ra, and Elephant Man (Nov. '11)

November brought a...strange batch.  In some ways.  In other ways, it brought some much needed attention to She-Ra!

Megator (Aug. '11) along with Leech and Hurricane Hordak (Sept. '11)

No pics of Megator!  Promise I'll do some at one point.  Anyway, he's the Bad Guy giant and he's all green and monstrous.  He also comes with an alternate zombie head, because he died in the past and the Snake Men bring him back from the dead to fight again.  Sooo...awesome!  Giant zombie!

Spy Monkey and the Custom Weapons of Awesome

So there's a website called Spy Monkey Creations from which you should buy things.  The pics below were my first Spy Monkey custom items, but sadly they are out of print, so I can't really sell 'em the way I want to.

February 2011 and the Pics Not Taken

So February 2011's figures were another batch where I just didn't take pics...except for Bow.  Oh yes, totally did a comic for Bow. But lets start with the lesser beings:

MotUC's First Army Builders: Palace Guards (Jan '11)

Yeah, I bought two of those.
