Masters of the Universe Origins Snakemen REPTILAX Figure Review!

Review of the Masters of the Universe Origins Replilax figure who is parts of the Snakemen Faction series and made by Mattel Toys.

[@JamesCurtisOKC]

The back card art is a recreation of the mini-comic panel this character originally appeared in. It was a scene set in Eternia thousands of years ago, and the character he is battling is apparently a Preternian Royal Guard. From "King Of The Snake Men. "

[@Themanchlid]

Cool! Thanks for watching and sharing that info. I have never seen this art before.

[@MiKeMiDNiTe-77]

1st saw him in that comic in 86 amazing to think many years later him being made into an action figure would become a reality

Awesome review MC! Keep up the good work.

Thanks so much jakelikejake! I appreciate you checking out the reviews and sharing your thoughts 👍

[@masonj4779]

Amazing figure. Definitely getting extras to customize. Great review as always. Keep em coming.

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah I really like the head design and colors on this figure. The head or body can make for some fun customs. Thanks for watching as always and sharing your comments ✌️

[@MiKeMiDNiTe-77]

Love this guy man, next level super cool 😎 His reused accessories look really vibrant in that green.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking this review out and sharing your thoughts on this figure! I really think this guy is fun with all the new parts and colors. I wish they included his original axe from the vintage art. But the already tooled weapons are just fine with the bright green colors too👍

[@rickbrunet2559]

Looks amazing. These figures they are doing so good. It's awesome

[@Themanchlid]

They are really putting out some cool looking figures for Origins this year! I like how heavy Mattel is going into the Snakemen faction. This Figure came out really cool! Thanks for checking the review out 👌

[@jerellewynn2855]

Another great video sir. He good figure. I wish mattel would have given him is actual weapons instead of the same weapons that we already have. I am really snake man out. I wish mattel make other figures for the origins line. The snake man has now taken over the Motu line. Always good video sir.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for stopping in to check out another video friend! Yeah I wish he came with his original vintage concept axe that is shown in his vintage art. I don't mind all the Snakemen but I really hope to see all the other horde and vintage inspired figures left from the 80s toy line that hasn't been done in the Origins yet!

[@Teriyaki_Emu]

G'day The Man Child... Yet another Great review. Thank you. I would of liked to see Reptilax head on a Snake Trooper body. I'm curious to see the look and how the head moves around the ST collar....maybe next time . Cheers.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking out the review as always! I think that will work on the snake trooper but the collar will definitely get on the way. I'll check it out and see how it works. Greetings from the USA friend ✌️

[@HyperdellicDude]

Dunno if I’m gonna get him, but great review as always, Bru!! Hope yer well.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching as always bro! He's an interesting mix of new and reused parts. I guess not a figure choice for everyone! I'm hanging in there! Thanks for asking 👌

[@podcastfromthepit3132]

Very cool 😎 great review I have to get one now

[@Themanchlid]

Awesome! Thanks for stopping in as always to check out the reviews! Yeah I think he is a cool pick-up for the Snakemen series 👌

[@FandomEntanglement]

I really like this figure! Reptilax has a more distinct look compared to the mashup of parts that Lord Gr’asp and Terroar use, so I appreciate that. I also didn’t realize he had a tail that just plugs right in to his back and that it articulates. And I don’t mind the green head on the yellow body, I think it adds to that distinct look I mentioned. The head does look really good on Fang-Or’s body, though, I’ll admit. That loose head is a shame though. I could tell before you even mentioned it just by the way it was moving around. I’m experiencing loose joints on a few of the figures I’ve opened, and it’s a bit annoying. Great review as always! ~Damon

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for stopping in as always to check out another review Damon! I was also really surprised on how much I liked the overall design of this figure even though the head is a green and body is yellow which is odd to me for color choices of this character. Someone in the comments said it might be a body suit and the figure is all green. I'm not sure. I didn't read anything about when trying to research a little bit on his vintage concept backround. I think it's cool that he has a new tooled Fang man head and a new tail which I also had no idea of until I removed him from the package. I must have saw the tail in some of the art and I just missed it! Hopefully we will get a Fang man figure in the Origins as well! I think it's great to see these vintage concept or unproduced figures like Reptilax, Terroar and Lord Gr'asp come to the Origins line now!👌

[@TheWandifan]

Can’t wait to get this figure! I know a lot of people are getting sick of the snakemen, but I’m digging it. The head looks like it would go awesome on the eternian guard. I might have to try it.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for stopping in to check out the review already bro! Mattel is really going all in with the Snakemen figures. I never thought the Origins would go this far with that line. But I honestly love it! The Snakemen faction is always cool to see in the Motu franchise or stories. I only tried a few customs with that head. However there are other figures like the palace guards that it also might look cool on!👍

[@TheWandifan]

@@Themanchlid as frustrating as it is to get some of these origins figures, they’re actually doing an amazing job with it. It’s going a lot further than what I thought it would, and it looks like they’re not stopping anytime soon which is pretty awesome because I can’t wait to see what else they come up with. And I have a huge wishlist, so I hope it hits most of that list for me lol. The cartoon line gone as well, we’re going to get to see a lot of deep cut characters for sure. Like you mentioned, this head looks like they will be using it for Fang man. Really exciting stuff coming out.

[@Themanchlid]

@@TheWandifan Yeah I understand the frustration with chasing down these figures. I have to a lot of stuff on ebay which is expensive sometimes. It's the only place I can find figures in hand early for reviews. They plan on making all the Snakemen concept figures going forward at this point from what I read!

[@TheRickster.]

Great video brother! I was not going to get him, but I changed my mind. I preferred the green body. I think the snake guard body would match.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for dropping by already Rickster! Yeah this couhave been another Snakemen figure that was supposed to come to the vintage line in the day that we would have nastalgia about now! Lol It's a must have for the Snakemen 👍

Great army builder, looks like something right out of a 80s arcade game like Golden Axe or Rastan!

[@Themanchlid]

@jasonking3182 Yeah, someone else mentioned he looks like a figure from Golden Axe. I think he has a cool design for the Snakemen faction and is definitely a great army building figure. Thanks for watching 👍

This is my favorite Snakemen he looks awesome Hes head sculpt and armor is cool and i always loved Tri-klops sword so him coming with that sword is cherry on the top for me

[@Themanchlid]

I'm glad to hear you like this figure and he is your favorite Snakemen in the series. The head sculpt is really cool looking. I'm not gonna use the Tri-Klops sword on him but I might give my Tri-Klops two swords now! Thanks for watching as always 👍

[@robertalessandrini8773]

Great Review! I have him on pre-order from BBTS and really wasn't excited about another Snakeman figure but after watching your review now im feeling it. His head sculpt is great . There are some head sculpts that Mattel knocks it out of the ballpark like Frog Monger , Tung Lashor and this guy look really good.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking out the review already! Yeah this Reptilax figure has a great head sculpt that is probably gonna be used for Fang Man figure at some point in the Origins. The long lizard tail is also a nice touch with the colors. Frog Monger and Tung Lashor were definitely figures with great head sculpts for the Origins line. Congrats on getting your Preorder in at BBTS. That's probably the best deal for this figure once the orders arrive👍

@@vinejunglefigurefactory4569 lol. Yeah I guess those eyes and heads have those forward looks.

[@citadelli]

Thanks for the tip on the snake man. I tried dremmeling under the chin, but didn’t do much. This looks like an interesting figure, but I’m not too into the Snake faction, so I don’t know… I only have about 6. With the ghost one on pre order. As always a thorough review 👍

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching and sharing your comments on the reviews! Yeah I couldn't stand the head on those Snake figures like Gorgon stuck looking all the way up. So making a cut in the front neck like I showed allows the peg to move all the way forward. The Snakemen are a really interesting faction of characters. But im sure many of the variants or concepts figures like Reptilax isn't for everyone. I also have that ghost Snake figure or Necro Conda on preorder at BBTS 👍

[@allmusicfan88]

Interesting character. Yes the head is pretty close to Fang Man! ha ha He is colorful and unique.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching already! Yeah I'm sure that head design will also be used for an Origins Fang man at some point.

[@petersneddon8532]

Brilliant review of a great figure. Can I ask where you get those foot stands that loop over the figure feet? Those look really effective!

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking out the review and posting your comments! I found those Food stands on ebay. They work really good for a lot of the Origins figures depending on the foot designs. Here's a link to the seller. www.ebay.com/itm/325567654446?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=cj0MP2rgSxK&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QsCteTpTQgm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[@MrUniq]

I love revelation on Netflix but they really need to find a way to get some youth media going for He-Man. These characters are very colorful and ooze personality through their designs. I can just imagine this guy being some sort of slimy opportunist among the snakemen :p.

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah I hear there is a New He-man movie coming in 2026. I'm not sure if they have other youth Media in the works to help promote this Origins line more. I would love to see more of that! Yeah this guy is trouble for the Snakemen in the comic! Thanks for watching 👍

[@deimoszane3476]

Great mix and match

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks man! I appreciate your view and comments! He definitely has some potential to build some cool customs with the upper head or lower body!👌

[@geffeternal741]

That head does looks more like Fang Man's. 🤔 Can't wait to get mine. It's on the way. 😊

[@Themanchlid]

I'm almost positive the head was designed for this figure and a future Origins Fang man figure 👍

[@pureballoonacy]

Hopefully the tail peg mechanic is foreshadowing for Mudulok and Multibot

[@Themanchlid]

I am really praying to see an Origins Multibot and Modulok at SDCC next month! Hopefully, you're right about the tail peg design. Thanks for checking the video out 👌

[@Sneltje]

Nice looking figure indeed. Unique although his tail sticks out pretty far with for me would be an issue for my display setup, but I guess with some hot water treatment I might be able to shorten the distance a bit more. But overall a great looking figure. 👌

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah he's is really nice looking with the new head, armor and tail. The tail is kind of long but it can twist left to right if that helps. Or use heat like you mentioned and try to repose it back then let it cool of in position. Thanks for checking out the video 👌

[@Sneltje]

@@Themanchlid Yeah I use a lot of Hot and Cold water treatment with a lot of action figures. Heating it will make the molecules in the plastic react and go all over the place which makes it possible for us to move it to a position we want then I use ice cold water to keep it in the position which make the molecules settle and stay in that position. It's so funny how that works, use it a lot with weapons and small stuff, had to use it with all the Dungeons & Dragons figures as they where to tight. But I know you know this already.

[@Themanchlid]

@@Sneltje Thanks cool! Yeah I have also used hot water or heat from a blow dryer to help reset some of these plastic weapons and accessories or just try to change a a position of something like this Reptilax tail👍

[@scockery]

He looks quite okay, aside from that stressing shield clip. I have one on preorder from BBTS. I don't understand why some people are paying $60 on ebay for him, when they can wait and get him for $20. Now, you're a review channel, so I can understand a little more to get him sooner to strike while the iron is hot. But some folks out there...I just don't understand.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts on this figure. That's great you got you're preorder in with BBTS. I also have some odds and ends on preorder there! Yes I absolutely agree about the cost on ebay. I do it as an investment to my content to get certain figures in hand early to try to have newer reviews ahead of time. I try to look for the best deal on ebay. But usually that figure will sell fast from other buyers who want to post it on social media like KZbin or they just want it now! I never suggest buying this stuff on ebay if your just collecting and willing to wait for the retail drop. I would never spend the extra money if I didn't want to review these figures early. I would just wait for BBTS preorders to come in! 👍

Try the head on the Royal Guard Infiltrator body.

[@Themanchlid]

Yes I tried it later after the review! I just didn't get a chance to bring him in during the review. The head and infiltrator are kind of close in color tones but the Infiltrator is very glossy and a couple shades darker then the Reptilax head. But they can work well under certain lighting conditions. Thanks for watching 👍

[@Dokken1975]

Where do you guys get these figures from so fast? I ordered a lot of these recent ones from Paulmart and he doesn’t even have them yet.

[@Themanchlid]

I get them from eBay. Paulmart is great for putting up certain preorders early and getting early access to certain figures. But he usually asks not to post them on social media before thier retail release. I guess he has them shippby air ahead of time from the factory. Ebay sellers is another story about what you can do with your figures. Mattel dosent even know when half there stuff is coming to the country sometimes. The for checking the review out 👌

I wonder if the Cringer head would work on that yellow body? That would be cool

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching. The Cringer socket in the head dose fit the Origins head ball pegs. But the Cringer head can't go all the way down because of the fur face design. The head will only go on turned to the side.

@@jacobstoner208 Yeah no problem! I tried the Cringer head on prince Adam and Skeletor while as was getting ready to film parts swapping during that review. It really didn't work and look silly. So I didn't bother going forward with the Cringer head on a regular Origins neck. Maybe a small adapter piece.

[@bluraycaper]

Is it just the lighting or is his buck and arms 2 different colors?

I wonder if this figure was an homage to the knock off MOTU lines like Galaxy Warriors that would sometimes use just regular human bodies with strange animal or creature heads to make more characters. Just wondering.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking out the review! It's possible some of the designs for these figures were inspired by other fantasy characters. Someone in the comments also suggested his look came from simular characters in the D&D cartoon in the 80s.
