Mattel is Giving He-Man Away!? Everything We Know So Far

[@ComicFiction]

200X is my FAVORITE MOTU animated series. It really delved into the history of the characters and did so much world building. Looking forward to these figures.

[@my-pop-culture]

I haven't seen it, only some segments in YT. From what I've seen, I think you are right, I plan to watch it some day. Filmation's pure nostalgia but's awful. Netflix's pretty animation but pretty poor writting.

[@Gkeese]

I agree. My heart loved Filmation, but 200X was just better. Except Clawful voice.

[@stormshadowctf]

It sucked

[@arestheconqueror]

200X was great and I also love those episodes. Wish they would continue the cartoon...someday?

[@StandingUpForBetter]

Amazing news! I too am a fan of the MOTU 200X line. This would also be a perfect time to re-release the entire MOTU 200X series in HD and on Blu-ray. That series and art style would just pop in HD and it could generate more buzz for these figures. Well done Pixel Dan. This was huge announcement that I missed but I am very excited for.

Mondo is usually overpriced. If they are priced competitively, they should do awesome. I loved the 200x cartoon series. ♥️

[@Sayacalbees87]

Their real ghostbusters are priced around $100 a piece so I’m guessing this will be similar in price.

[@Warchestfulloftoys]

yep they have gotten greedy over the last few years might as well call it $200x because the price is going to be closer to 150 if not higher

275 per figure is not doable for an average person. It’s just ridiculous.

I HATE it called "200x"! It came out in 2002!! Just called He-Man 2002!! Why is that so hard?!

[@omisokaomisokas5095]

I don't think they pronounce it two hundred x, All of us MOTU geeks know it's two thousand x, but it's the writing that it's the debate. I get the "X" stands for the year, hence 200X, however, If you show 200X to someone who doesn't know what MOTU is and ask them to read it, I guarantee you 100% of people will read it two hundred x, show them this (2000X) and 100% of people will read two thousand x. That's where the real debate is.

[@Rocket1377]

​@Blackbird26155 It didn't come out until 2003 in the UK and other nations, so many fans were calling it MOTU 2003 from the start. Mattel also rebranded the toyline as MOTU vs. the Snake Men, and so the toys in that packaging started being called MOTU 2003 by Americans. Then NECA launched their statue line in 2005, and fans began calling it MOTU 2005. Eventually, we all agreed that 200X was a better all-encompassing name for the entire era, and the name stuck.

[@Blackbird26155]

@@Rocket1377 It's just weird to me that this is literally the ONLY reboot franchise that does that. The first TMNT reboot came out a year later and it's just called "TMNT 2003" by the fans even though it ALSO ran for years & had two different rebrands.

[@JasonCartwright-z6s]

The 200X Cartoon is my favorite MOTU as well! I loved that they gave us backstory to the characters and history and overall mythos to the line, made it all feel more “real” and “lived-in”. Plus, it felt like the series was always heading somewhere rather than simple “one-offs” that could be watched in any order. It was cool how the comic “counter parted” the cartoon to develop the story even further. I was so sad when the series were cut short. I’m very much looking forward to this line. I just hope I can afford to collect them all!

[@no1wonderfan921]

Wow. Those Ghostbusters were cool, but there is NO WAY in hell I'm gonna pay $200 for a 2-pack, much less $100 for 1. That's insane. I thought Super7's $55 Ultimates were bad, but DAMN! Not going to happen.

What a nice video Dan! I could sign every single of your words of love for 200x. This is the best news from SDCC and let’s hope Mondo sticks to the original 4H designs!

[@TheSmokeinya]

200x was my show. I grew up with it and it got me into MOTU. Part of the reason I collect the Mondo 1/6 line is because its so heavily inspired by 200x (thanks in part to Emiliano designing the figures there as well). To say this line is a dream come true is an understatement, especially from the Mondo team who care so much about MOTU. However, I would say that we're going to be looking at about $80 a figure in my opinion, though $60 is possible. Expect Skeletor to have a soft goods cloak with a wire in it, Beast Man will likely be sized up like the 1/6 version, etc. $80 might sound like a lot, but if it does end up being priced there I'd urge to to seriously look at dropping some other collectibles to free up budget. The Mondo figures are incredible pieces of art. Probably the best designs in all of MOTU IMO. You won't regret picking one up.

[@leebirdwell7783]

Nothing against Mondo, but I would've been more excited if the Four Horsemen were doing this line. They're the ones that came up with the intial designs, and going by the prices of their Mythic Legions line, we would probably be looking at a $50 price point. But I'm still excited to see what Mondo brings to the table. Their 6th scale line looks amazing!

[@batmanmarch]

I was 10 years old when 200X came out and it was my introduction to MotU (outside of the film). I was heartbroken when the animated series ended and the toyline came to a close. Despite collecting nearly all of Classics and a lot of Masterverse, I am so hyped that 200X is getting the love and attention it deserves. If the price point isn't too bad, I'm definitely all-in for these.

[@Spongemonkey26]

200X really was an amazing cartoon. Too bad we never got to finish off that 2nd season.

[@backerman10]

Downfall in the 2000s was too many He-Man figures. I remembered them going on clearance for $3 or $4 each at the Kay Bee Toys, lol. I'd like to see them do 3 3/4" MOTU line, tho.

[@TheIndoNerd]

Hey dan, thanks for putting together a new perspective on the line, the 2000x line was not on the radar for obvious reasons but mainly because we were driving fancy cars and chasing women. You painted a beautiful picture and hit the nail on the head how this iteration bridged the gap. It's crazy to think how we got classics and back to nostalgia as this is truly the greatest franchise of all time

[@MrTheMighty]

This is exciting stuff! I didn't pay enough attention when the reveal of this line happened, and I assumed that "Mondo" meant "$300, 12 inch figure I'll never be able to justify even though I want it" and just kind of moved on with my day. That said, if the price point is $60, I don't know that I'd buy more than just He-Man and Skeletor. Now, if it's $35-40, and especially with what sounds like possibly only about a dozen or so characters planned... I could see myself buying the whole line.

[@tompollockjr144]

I think Mondo has really proven themselves with the 1/6 line. Since 200X is mainly untouched, and these are really more of collectibles than play toys, Mattel is giving them the go-ahead. The price point puts them way outside of competition with Mattel's mainline figures.

[@CrimsonCobraCommander]

2000x was incredible I wish would have gotten one more season to see hordak

[@TOUGHNERDTOYS]

Being a very big He-Man fan especially of the 200x line, I can't wait to get my hands on them.

[@F13fan]

My 2 I want the most are Trap Jaw & Tri-Klops(then Gen Rattlor) but I think you’re right about character choice for those first 2 waves.(heroes I’d want are Fisto & Ram Man) As for wishing for ones that didn’t get proper figures are: Mosquitor, Clawful, Stinkor, & Scare Glow.

[@hammertronactionfigures2426]

Emeliano's work is OUTSTANDING!

[@RetroToyPrincess]

I think Mondo needs to try get these in at the 55 dollar price point so these can more readily compete with Super7 Ultimates. Wave 1 He-Man, Beast-Man, Teela, Wave 2 Skeletor, Man-At-Arms, Evil-Lyn. I think covers the core characters from Vintage, Filmation, & 200x -- and the main characters we expect from a new MOTU line. Year 2: Wave 1 Stratos, Mer-Man, Scare Glow, Wave 2: Zodac, Faker, Orko. I think if they go that direction for the first two years it sets a 200x series up well.

[@battlearmorhe-man2343]

Wave 1 will feature He-Man and two villain figures

[@jeantesteur8064]

When I learnt MONDO was doing MOTU in 1/12 I was incredibly happy to be incredibly disappointed a moment later to learn they were doing the 200x series. I watched the 200x series recently, driven by many comments about it through figures channels talking about MOTU.....and I really loved it ! But as far as the esthetic goes...I hate the character design and feel repeled by it (and that mechanical sword...erk). On that matter I am still very much attached to the old 80s cartoon design and love what MONDO is doing with their 1/6 scale MOTU line. My dream would be to get a 1/12 version of MONDO's MOTU 1/6 line.... Their 1/6 scale is far too big for me and too expensive. But I think it's a great news for all the fans of the show who like to collect this toyline, especially knowing that MONDO will take care of it and also knowing that the price tag will be below the Gohstbusters price line (which seems to be around 100 USD per figure, so I would say 75-80 USD for the 200x line...60 USD...I think Pixel Dan is too optimistic here ;)

[@omshiva3599]

Glad you're so excited for this new line. I hope Mondo scales each character appropriately to an average sized 6.5 inch figure. I can see He-Man and King Grayskull being 7 inches tall, and several of the villains and oversized heroes being at the 7.5 or 8 inch height. The female characters should be at the 6.3 inch mark. I'm hopeful that they will give us characters that didn't get action figures in that line. I'd love to see playsets like Castle Grayskull, Slime Pitt, and Battle Station as well as vehicles. I'm hopeful that Mondo teams up with other retailers so fans can buy figures at their own pace.

Sorry the 200 dollar price is beyond ridiculous for the Real Ghostbusters. Breaks my heart to decline them (especially for the first Boogie Man figure) but Mondo/Sony/Hasbro need to realize we are beyond hard times right. .

I just want to say, Pixel Dan's dedication and enthusiasm for MOTU is what keep the MOTU line thriving for many fans (like me).

[@Electiger-y5k]

Yet he never gave us his thoughts on revelation or revolution

[@AssistantProfessor]

To the Mondo team (if you’re reading this): 1) I would like to see certain characters properly scaled. For example, Beast Man was imagined to be larger than an average human in the 200x series. There are other examples, such as Leech. Even if it means a higher price point, please consider it. 2) I understand that every MOTU line starts with a pretty much same roster, but please surprise us. Throw in early on an outlier, a character that did not receive a figure, ala Hordak. Thank you.

[@drewchase6577]

I agree... I trust the Mondo team

[@arestheconqueror]

Yeah, you're right. All lines start with the same characters. Since Heman and Skeletor are always who open the line (and that's fine) could be cool to have "others" first instead the initial roster.

[@TheSmokeinya]

This is already highly likely. See what they're doing with 1/6? I'd expect the same for the 200x line. If the first year goes well, I'd also expect 6 figures in 2026 with the possibility of a Battle Cat.

[@VanDavis]

I think the license owners are gonna let their greed price their properties out of existence, and anything from this line over $50 or so is gonna fizzle out quickly. These retail figure prices keep climbing, while several 3rd party companies are starting to produce Mezco quality figures for half the price.

[@Futuredynamo]

I'm somewhat relieved with what they said about the price point. After seeing the Ghostbusters price point being roughly $100 per figure, I was scared what these would end up being. Regarding GB, I will probably get the 2-packs to get all 4 Ghostbusters and the ghosts they come with. I'm not sure how far beyond that I will go if that line continues past that unless they make something really compelling. I was a big fan of the 200X line. I didn't get all of the weird variants, but I got all of the different characters and some variants that I liked, and also collected the Neca stactions. And with MOTU Classics, I was pretty much a completest with the line. With Origins and Masterverse, I've very much been cherry picking what I get. I consider Classics my main MOTU line. So while Origin is cool, committing to that scale wasn't something I really wanted to do, and I wasn't interested in starting all over. With Masterverse, since they kinda/sorta scale with Classics, I get the figures with designs that I particularly like, but consider it supplemental to my Classics collection. But for me it was never really a whole new starting point. This Mondo line interests me far more. I guess scale wise, I will still potentially see it as an extension of Classics. These being in that scale is a big part of why I'm interested. But I can see this being a line that I either go all-in on, or at least a lot closer to it than I have with Origins or Masterverse. There may be the occasional release that I pass on depending on the cost and how badly I want certain characters and designs. But I can see this being a line where I get at least most of what is released..... depending on what it costs. I can deal with $60 per figure (I hope it is less), but if it is much more than that, I may have to re-evaulate.

[@mannaandmonsters]

Very interesting video. By the time we got the show in the Netherlands I already read online that it had ended in the US. I don't know if the toys even were offered here. So glad that Emiliano Santalucia is involved. He also did the concept art for Mondo's 1/6 Teela. 100 dollars for a Buster, 100 dollars for a big ghost. Hmm, I'll gladly take Slimer and the blue ghost for two dollars each. ;-) I also think 60 dollars will be the price for the 200x figures. It's not really King Grayskull without a cape and didn't he have a specific version of the Power Sword? The head in the middle seems to have shorter hair. Prince Adam perhaps? Maybe save these variants for proper figures? Emiliano, Val Staples, convoluted story lines for the Classics line? Getting flashbacks from a certain podcast that got me through work many times. Although it was definitely more fun to listen to in the beginning. I believe Keldor/Skeletor's dual swords were originally meant to be the Power Sword(s) for that series? Not in for the line, but definitely interested to see the designs and price(s).

On a more serious note. I'll probably pick a few up here or there. Thundercats 1:6 Scale is coming as you know, D. That takes precedence 😅

[@mopkrayz]

3 pack is always a big fcukup for those who don't buy every figure that comes out :(

[@Zargan81]

I hope these fit well with Classics both size-wise and aesthetically. And I hope they are more scuff resistant and less fragile than Mondo’s 1:6 MOTU figures. All that said, characters that were missing from or drastically different than Classics should be front of line for releases here. Sorceress, Trap Jaw, Randor, Adam, Stratos, Evil-lyn, Teela, etc. Each wave should have two more familiar characters and a less common character. I want to break outside of the core group rehashing a bit.

I grew up on my dad's vintage MOTU toys, but on the 200X cartoon, eventually getting an assortment of those toys as well. I would cry happy tears to get a Mekaneck in this line

[@FFFFPPPP]

They think theyre God’s gift to the hobby which is how they justify their prices. It’s the Mondo tax. That pretty good price point will probably be something like $79.99. Gee, that’s so much better.

That looks more like the Savage He-Man head

Thanks a lot Danny! This is incredibly humbling for me. Every time I talk about this line, I want to stress that it it is intimidating to step into the Four Horsemen shoes (well, just one shoe, as I'm not sculpting :D), and I will try to do it with the same respect I have for all the vintage design and artists from the original line. You are 100% right, I found more confidence going into this once I considered my work for the comic (yeah, weirdly, it wasn't my very first thought!). The 200x line is very distinctive also for the sculpting style of the figures, not just the overall design. And without Eric Treadaway sculpting, how should I portray that in my designs? I looked back at the comic, and indeed I had created my personal interpretation of those sculpts, and then I realized that was the way to go. Mixed with some hints from the cartoon, especially the scale difference between the characters, which is something I will consider when designing the other guys. Drawing He-Man in that style again was a huge nostalgia trip for me, and I'm so happy that the Mondo team gave me this opportunity and I can't wait to see these coming to life!

I'm gonna need a General Rattlor so, so, so bad.

[@smitty_863]

This info made my nether regions happy.

[@VexNToys]

$60, I think that’s a little low. I hope I’m wrong but thought a minimum of $70. Again I hope you’re right.

[@reyhernandez8739]

Wow! I’m so excited for this line. I’m also a little surprised Mattel would agree to this given how much they are pushing masterverse/new eternia, but I’m not gonna complain about it. 200X definitely has a very special place in my heart, it reignited my love for motu. I hope the price point is fair, given the sheer amount of things included I speculate these will be around the $60-$75 range. As far as who will be included in the first and second waves, I’m right there with you, Dan. I think those are great guesses. Although I can see the possibility of having someone like beast man and maybe another B list villain like stinkor if they’re wanting to stretch out the line as much as possible. I’m really hoping for height differences, I want a really beefy looking beastman. I wonder what we should expect in the articulation department.

[@jace9763]

Love hearing about this. Love your excitement even more! I'm right there with you brother! I still play with my old 200x figures with my kids. I hope Mondo's stay within a Super7 ish price point. I can deal with $60-70 if these really keep premium painting and accessories. Looking forward to seeing how these go.

[@drewlovelyhell4892]

If they're asking $100 for those 'Busters, I doubt their MOTU figures will be less than $75. At that price point, I wouldn't count on a third wave of figures, let alone the deep cuts.

[@galmorzu]

200X Mosquitor and Webstor PLEASE!

[@actionfigures]

Let Mondo have it and let's have mattel focus on finishing the vintage line in origins...

[@NerdRahtio]

I would love a “disco” Skeletor if these end up with repaints

[@joehodgson9217]

I don't even care about MOTU, but sometimes it's just fun to watch a fellow Toy Boy get excited about an announcement. I hope this line delivers on all of your expectations. With Mondo, it should at least be in good hands.

Who the heck calls it two hundred x?
