They're all ace. But if you have regular He-Man already, and you're not bothered about gimmicks and just want to host fights between all your figures, then I personally would always choose to get a new character instead of another He-Man.

Yeah, I know what you mean. However, the inclusion of caps meant I simply had to replace standard He-Man with the Thunder Punch version.

How fucking nice were the jellies.

I would play he-man football with my figures- He-man himself played for Norwich and wasnt very good.

 

Mer-man and Buzz off played for Liverpool on the wings- they were great players

[Dave D]

Cobra Khan was pretty useful in midfield but a bit injury prone.

 

As in his head used to fall off

Sold my Castle Greyskull, Wind Raider, and about 6 figures for £20 back in the day.  Daft cunt.

The wife gets annoyed at car boot sales when I spend time rootng through boxes of mixed figures someone is selling.

 

Only ever find thunder cats and turtles though- no good to me whatsoever!   

[Pidge]

Turtles, no good?

 

You'll be slagging off Dino-riders next you fucking oddball.

I really liked the battle armour ones, but the Prince Adam figure was my favourite, as he had a little velvet waistcoat. I lost it though. In many ways I've never got over that.

I was in the toy shop today & saw this lot...

Not a great figure selection there. I've had to buy most of the new Origins stuff online. Got Clamp Champ and Battle Armor Skeletor in the mail this week. Already have Mer-Man, Zodac, Scare Glow etc, all the ones I never had as a kid. It's great.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Skeletor owned the word nincompoops!

Why are we ignoring the big question 

Why was Mook in a toy shop with a bag of haribo

The film is underrated, tremendous fun. Courtney Cox and Tom Paris, plus Evil Lyn was fit.

 

What change did the woman have being called Evil Lyn? Imagine how pissed off she'd be if she was actually a nice lady and worked for social services or something. "This is Evil Lyn but she's actually really nice, she made cupcakes for some of our looked after kids."

 

"Thanks evil Lyn."

 

"Get fucked."

I watched it for the first time in probably 25 years the other week. It’s one of those films I’ve hardly seen on the TV since. 
 

Remember back in the day none of my mates had it on VHS and finding it on the shelves and all copies not fully rented out in the local video shop back in the 1980’s was like finding the holy grail.
 

It was a great trip down nostalgia lane. Remember being disappointed that some of the plot wasn’t how I remembered it at all.

 

I later realised that I had bits confused with Suburban Commando which for some reason I thought had Arnie in the lead role, then finding out it was in fact Hulk Hogan. 
 

Great times, the kids these days haven’t got it as good.

I was molesting small children.

 

Why the fuck else would I be in a toy shop?

Is your eldest lad old enough to understand the 80s cartoon yet? If so, get him started on it, and buy him the He-Man and Skeletor figures.

He's turned his nose up at He Man a few times unfortunately. He's completely and utterly obsessed with Superman, which suits me because I like Superman too.
