Snake Rattlor Roll (Oct. '12)

Now that MotU Castle Grayskull is finally reviewed, I feel like I can get back to the main toyline!  Picking back up where I left off, it looks like we're in...2012?!  Dangit, how did I get so behind?!  And why do I feel like I need to do these in order??

The Only Snakes with Nipples (Sept '12)

 

HEY HEY what's goin' on folks?  Where was I?  Oh yes, He-Man stuff and maybe some other things.  Well how about the Snake Men two pack of army building madness?  This baby came out in September of 2012 and BOY HOWDY it brought the goods like mama's homemade biscuits (assumin' yo mama make da biscuits). 

They See Me Lasin' (Aug '12)

Aaaaand back to the MotUC figures!  Last time I believe we were on the convention exclusives for August 2012, so now we're back to the regular figures.  Well, sorta.  I've explained before that they were doing a 30th Anniversary subscription with special new figures for the MotUC line.  If I'm not mistaken, August didn't have a regular figure, but this still kinda counts.  So, as I've said: The 30th Anniversary consisted of six figures.  Three by inside Mattel folks (two designers, one being Draego-Man and one by the brand manager, which is the Mighty Spector up there), two contest winners (Fearless Photog from awhile back and one I'll go over eventually), and one figure from a big-name comic book writer.  That's this one: Sir Laser-Lot! 

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.
