Horde Zombie He-Man Masters of the Universe Classics Figure Review

[@darkwoods1954]

Now we need a Slime Pit

[@timothyhance4044]

It's so nice to see reviews done before figures are released. I miss the old days of hyping them up before I had the figures in my hand. Good job Dan.

[@martin_E79]

For me he is Slime Pit He-Man 😉

[@Pixel-dan]

Me too! That's why I said it so many times. Haha

[@raywells4415]

I agree

[@SuperJM2013]

Super Pumped for this figure and seeing the Mattel logo.

[@daveeichelkraut4875]

It's really awesome to see your MOTU reviews again!

[@Pixel-dan]

I never stopped doing them, but thanks! :-D

[@ToyBro]

Man I cannot wait to get my hands on this. Looking forward to picking mine up at the show!

[@n_explosion8199]

I hope Mattel picks up the motuc line again. I don't know, but I feel Super7 wasn't really doing it for me. Here's to hoping for (affordable) re-releases of characters like Fisto and Mer-man to fill in the gaps with my childhood figures done justice 😊

[@n_explosion8199]

@unclassified maybe i'll come acros some dumbdumb-collector who doesn't know what he has 🤞😋

[@n_explosion8199]

@unclassified just gotta wait till their wives make them "get rid off their dolls" 😄😄😄

[@MrWolf12000]

Got mine coming from bbts... super excited

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

Love these exclusives, but it's a shame they're so limited and expensive. Been watching your reviews for years now, Dan. Keep up the amazing work! I also find it amusing how many people are cheering for Mattel making MOTU figures again, like they weren't the ones complaining about swapped shoulders, swapped forearms, "blastic," production delays, changes from the prototypes shown, any time Scott said anything at all (the poor guy just couldn't win), the MattyCollector site not working on the two days a month it really had to, Digital River, any time they made a figure that wasn't in the Vintage line, "wasted slots," and all those other complaints and accusations and conspiracy theories and threats and downright abuse that made Mattel drop the line in the first place. How quickly they forget! ;)

[@pmgerard]

If I spot it correctly, this one has Triclops’ left gauntlet instead of MOTUC He-Man’s toy inspired half gauntlet. There have been a few He-Mans to get symmetrical jeweled left gauntlets over the years but never that I can recall with his classic costume until this figure (sort of Classic) and the SDCC Origins figure. It’s a minicomics look, similar to Filmation, almost never used on toys without further changes.

[@Shiva-Kumar138]

Patrick Gerard Only MOTUC & Pre-Eternia He-Man & Prince Adam was able to secure this left arm bracer look. I swapped this left arm from PE He-Man & gave it to the classic version. He looks gorgeous with that look.

[@MarkVersion1]

I love the mattycollector plastic used before so I hope that this has it

[@MarkVersion1]

except for the green goddess one :)

[@jaysonreign]

Did anybody catch the subtle hints in the latest Super7 Update video? After talking about the latest MOTU stuff, there’s a cut to Filmation He-Man and a tear rolls down his cheek.

[@cambonious23]

This was the one I was always wished they made when I was a kid. The little comic book that came with the slime pit showed this but you couldn’t play with the slime on your figures because the slime kept falling off.

[@pious83]

Translucent plastic He-Man, you say? *_Sends out a signal flare to Toy Galaxy Dan_*

[@DrivenUnder1000]

You know what else is funny i fliped my phone around to see the front of the box just to see the back of my phone! Lol!

[@eliotbenitez8362]

Another classic Pixel Dan MOTU review! Awesome!

[@twotonedearly]

This is clearly a sign the Slime Pit is coming to MOTUC

[@river7714]

I'm soooo in if it is!

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

I hope so . . . but only after I've had time to save up for it!

[@MrActor30]

Cant wait to get mine. Thanks for the review PD.

[@stevenmabee3232]

I cant wait to get mine, I'm going to have to pickup a second one. I was just gonna take him out, but the special packaging looks so nice I need to keep one sealed.

[@lpsgirl255]

Superb idea Amigo.

[@vaughnlewis1953]

Thanks for faithfully keep us up to date with 📢 The MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE CLASSICS❗❗❗👊Pixel Dan you are the man‼

[@CrashWatchman]

nothing against S7 but I am so glad to see He-Man made by Mattel again!

[@edstar83]

Do you really think Mattel is going to *continue* the Classics line?

[@cinnamonbun1379]

@@edstar83 No, but that isn't a bad thing. Classics has been going on for over a decade, and with each year, the market keeps dwindling. They've already done the entire vintage line, a ton of variants, a bunch of Filmation characters, the entire main cast in Filmation style, a bunch of 200X characters/variants/heads, the movie designs, and most of the one off characters from the mini comics, newpaper strips, magazines, concept art, etc. I genuinely don't know where the line could go outside of rereleases and really obscure characters from like Finnish audio dramas or something. Like, we even got Mo-Larr and Adam from the meme.

[@edstar83]

@@cinnamonbun1379 Exactly it's been going for over a decade, it's come this far and it's pretty silly to end it before it's truly complete. There are still many characters that people want. New Adventures isn't complete. 200x isn't complete. POP isn't complete. Filmation isn't complete.

[@bodysnatcher7773]

Reminds me of Realm of the Underworld slimes figures

[@paulmares9511]

YEEEESSSS!!!! MOTU reviews are back!

[@river7714]

Thanks, Dan I'm excited about this figure! I snagged my preorder on BBTS can't wait to check him out!

[@J_Lee712]

From the accesories to the packaging this fig is awesome. I am thinking about Green Goddess but, hope that issue has finally been fixed. Great review Pixel Dan. Will be hunting this down.

[@joeyvandersloot63]

glad to hear the return of the MOTU background music

[@jzachery]

I wasn't a fan of the Alcala head but I think it's the best fit for this guy for me. Love it. Not thrilled with Mattel as a company but will wait and see.

[@anthonysiguido1116]

I was hoping you'd show him with the green weapons from the weapons pack from years ago. Either way, very nice.

[@Pixel-dan]

Hmmm, I'll have to dig those out from wherever I have them stored. Heh. Those were really bright, lime green. I don't think they'll match, but might still look cool!

[@Belmont_79]

Awesome figure and review, thank you very much! 🤘

[@mitchfletcher2386]

Alternate title: Kids' Choice Awards He-Man!

[@nathan_the_barbarian7974]

Nice fig. Wish I could add him to my collection

[@TimBurVlogs]

Great review, PixelDan! I really dig this figure!

[@Alexx1083]

Whew! Big sigh of relief. Glad to hear that he's sturdy! That was my one worry.

[@joker5063]

Great figure, makes me think a classics Fright Zone is coming

[@Nintality]

This needs an origins release, seeing that Anti Eternia He-Man and Wun-Dar got the origins treatment i'm just guessing this can totally be a thing

[@Aleks0709]

He is fantastic looks absolutely astonishing, so much better than anything super7 was able to produce!!! Go Mattel!!!!! nice review pixel Dan 💞

[@Rustyjamesman]

I remember playing with the 2000x slime pit it was so fun

[@Strawberry92fs]

I know what the Lore is, but I always saw translucent slime He-Man as like a sentient slime creature that mimics He-Man's Appearance. Maybe it became sentient after He-Man was dunked in it, Maybe it just takes the form of whatever it fights, maybe it's an enchanted monster created by Hordak or Skeletor to fight He-Man. But I always thought of it as being made of slime, not just He-Man covered in slime. I know it's non-canonical, but that's how I'd play with him.

[@JMan1380]

Oh man, you've got to get all the versions of he-man together.

[@Warrior8bit]

Nice insight to a cool figure. Another nail in the coffin for Super7? It doesnt look good for them to see new MOTU stuff coming out with them involved. I guess what is in the pipeline is the last stuff from them? Maybe Mattel is picking up the licence again. I just hope Mattel continue the awesome Filmation 5.5” line, but that seems unlikely?

[@Degro76]

Keep and eye out for the new Mattel 5.5 inch origin line. I'm pumped bc super 7 filmation was cut short. Still waiting for 15 figures on pre order.

[@Warrior8bit]

robert ? We don’t that Mattel is doing a new line, or that Super 7 is stopping. That’s just a guess at this point.

[@Warrior8bit]

robert ? BTW I’ve actually got 21! figures on preorder! 😵

[@Chucitron]

slime pit heman, i wish they would make a 5.5" my kids would love it since they love playing with the slime pit

[@Pixel-dan]

I'd be all-in on a 5.5 Slime Pit He-Man!

[@MattKayser]

Great figure :-) I can't help but think of that old "Mucus" Tick figure, LOL (not a bad thing).

[@ehenyor]

Just like *WE USED* to be able to do. Nice backhand slap there, Dan! LOL (Still love S7, though.) haha

[@davidpeterhill7817]

He-Man crossed with the Hulk... He-Hulk.

[@erickmunoz3894]

is the quality better then super7???????????

[@kidwajagstang]

So when is the now obligatory Zombie He-man being used in the vintage Slime pit and covered in slime?? Also, can you show this He-Man under a black light?? Maybe use IV reactive slime and slime him while lit with black light??

[@darkstarderg4710]

That must be scary for He man's freinds.

[@martin_E79]

I think the 2008 head looks best. The vintage toy head sits too high and the Alcala head too low 😉 But it's great that they included all three!

[@TheBigBigSean]

I hope BBTS comes through with my order. This figure is flipping amazing.

[@MrActor30]

Love the video, i can’t wait to get mine.

[@pthug4life]

How come you got this heman? I pre order mine with the vintage wave 3 and 4 but I haven’t get nothing yet from bigbadtoystore or did you know when are this figures come out for everybody that pre order?

[@kristysherlund1279]

The slime he man is a bit different because his left arm doesn’t have the long thing on it

[@brushstroke3733]

I would love a translucent Green Goddess from Origins, but they're already making the solid green skinned version (we think.)

[@bluesnagglerocker]

Yo pixel dan, you gonna have a booth at powercon?

[@Degro76]

Just scored one on eBay...needed it!!

[@NerdRahtio]

I regret passing on the pre-order. I love translucent figs.

[@mksolid82]

So did Super7 lose the license? What’s going on?

[@Cobralalalala]

Nobody knows yet.

[@OnlySubzz]

Yes there is a post about it on the forums. They will make select items and the rest by mattel

[@mksolid82]

bassinyourface ugh I hope the 1987 movie figures are safe.

[@OnlySubzz]

@@mksolid82 They are thats super 7 contract. Mattel could never get it so those are a go and safe

[@timf7413]

I'm honestly surprised Mattel seems to be getting back into the MOTU property. I wouldn't have expected that until the movie came out.

[@aguerr7]

When will we get a Slime pit,? They are making Snake Mountain so I would totally love a Fright Zone, Slime pit or dare I dream Eternia.

[@luizenidog5016]

Extremely awesome 💚💀💚

[@DrivenUnder1000]

You know whats funny other than being all green he Resembles the ultimate Warrior! That might make it worth keeping!

[@Shiva-Kumar138]

Scott : I Designed This Packing Way Back In 2014 ! Yeah.. I Did It... I Did It For The Rock... I Did It For The People !!

[@JayDee284]

Slime & Clear Plastic it like this He-Man was made for you.

[@pumpkinlordvgc2762]

I wonder when bbts will be shipping these. I have one on pre order.

[@stanleyberg5628]

He's cool i like him and hes valid as a character i just wish he was yellow or purple slime so nobody can confuse him with the hulk

[@actionfigureplus]

awesome review, new to the channel we love MOTU over here! new subscribe and like!

[@VarangianVigilante]

Phantom Dan came early this year

[@fandabidozi3191]

Hopefully we’ll get an Origins version, without the black spray painted head though.

[@wiibrockster]

Does anybody know where I can buy these in the UK? I have a few MOTU Classics but they cost quite a lot considering import fee's on top of the standard figure price. I wish Mattel would realise that there's an audience for these in other countries such as the UK.

[@wiibrockster]

@unclassified Oh damn. I was hoping they'd be sold in speciality stores

[@TheartistDevilRob]

I can’t wait to see him

[@derektorres6260]

Its dumb that a figure this cool is an exclusive

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

Agreed! As cool as the items themselves are, I hate the idea of exclusives.

[@Vasculio]

OMG what took you so long to bring back the music. Ps great review! Cheers!

[@TheKillerStudios_]

Awesome

[@oneshot73]

Missed out on this... price point was too high for me, coupled with the worry about what happened with my (and others') goddess figure. Wonder if the fact that it was Mattel making these is the reason it pushed the price higher for the PC exclusive this year? Definitely looking like S7 is at least potentially losing the 7" line, and the 5.5" line can't be looking good if Mattel is going to be starting a line with an articulation-improved version of that scale.

[@Pixel-dan]

The quantity was the biggest reason for the price. The production numbers were real small on these.

[@oneshot73]

@@Pixel-dan Fair enough, thanks for the insight! Wish they would've pushed for a larger production then, but I'm assuming they couldn't pivot like S7 did with the meme Adam figure.

[@oneshot73]

unclassified All of this is frankly too high, so if we were to play the comparison game between Matty and S7, people can go in circles all day (better quality vs line extended a few years)... people have forgotten about complaining about Matty quality all of a sudden! Also, when I consider cost, I’m also factoring in shipping, and the figure cost nearly double for me all in... I’m fine with people paying that if it’s worth it to them, I just had to personally draw a line on that one.

[@OutoftheBoxHeroes]

When did this go on pre-sale?

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

They had it for pre-order for convention-goers back in March, but only if you were going to the convention to pick it up. BBTS had it up for pre-order sometime last month, I think, but it sold out almost instantly.

[@Caleb.Collects98]

This figure reminds me of the Marvel Legends Face off Hulk. I don't know why but it does. LOL

[@FNHot]

If anyone has one of these to sell, please message me. The way powercon sold these this year was BS and I missed it.

[@WarhawkLegend69]

I was not following this release , how did powercon handle the pre-orders for this release ?

[@FNHot]

@@WarhawkLegend69 Like always sold tickets for attendees and non-attendees. Except this time if you werent attending, they were like HOLD ON, you can order later. So the attendee stuff was open for like a month, I checked almost daily. Then, with no e-mails to previous buyers, no pixel dan youtube videos, and a late post on he-man.org went OKAY ORDER TOMORROW GUYS! So I was a day late in seeing that we were even allowed to order, and by then, everything was sold out. Like just poorly run and poorly communicated compared to every other power con release, because I have all of the previous ones, on my walls, as I type this. That kind of thing makes me as a collector hope who ever was responsible, finds a big rock the next time they use a slip and slide.

[@johaneggink]

Anyone know how/ where to get these since they are sold out?

[@2uitdoesntmatter]

Johan Eggink the big bad toy store might still have some

[@polarfox5454]

How about a collection tour?

[@Pixel-dan]

My collection is mostly in boxes. :-( When I get my new room set up, I'll do that. But no eta.

[@nicholasmoose6574]

I thought Mattel owned the rights to the word "slime!" If they are involved again, why can't they use the name "Slime Pit He-Man" or "Slime Slave He-Man!?" And more importantly, when do we get "Slime Slave She-Ra!" she always would have made more sense!!

[@niobium79]

Absolutely love this he man variant....but why horde zombie??!!

[@justinmohan7103]

I hope they continue with some of the Super 7 stuff. I don't understand why Mattel stopped making MOTU stuff

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

I think it was down to how every time they did something, or Scott said anything, it would immediately incur an avalanche of complaints, accusations, conspiracy theories, threats, and downright abuse. After Scott left, they couldn't keep a brand manager for MOTUC because it was such a toxic "fandom," it drove people out of the position. At the end, nobody wanted to touch it with a 10-foot bargepole, and they were happy to turn it over to Super7.

[@2k3familytv80]

Somebody selling this one for $150 mint condition. Do you think at that price it will be worth it?

[@PCGamer77]

"Me Hulk He-Man SMASH!"

[@wiibrockster]

You know you are born in the wrong generation when you love MOTU and figure collecting but your freinds only know He-Man and Skeletor.

[@pattontank773]

I think I'll have to take him out of the package now.

[@robdcollector2808]

wow...this is a coollllll figure!!!!

[@The_Str4nger]

he looks like the Lou Ferrigno Hulk

[@eduardrios5675]

Yo tengo el tigrre de Heman para la venta

This should be glow in the dark how the hell did they missed that???

[@vengeance1701]

Nate...Val! He-Man.org is well represented!:)

[@kingmarkseven17]

Didn't even know this was gonna be a thing 😳😔

[@Beedo_Sookcool]

Neither did I . . . until long after it had sold out. Not that I'm bitter.

[@b.lloydreese2030]

So that's what the slime pit did

[@Wright805]

You should read the mini-comic that came with the Slime Pit ("Escape from the Slime Pit"). It's a great story with cool artwork. I'm pretty sure it can be found on-line.

[@krypton7853]

Bought 2!

[@MichaelKasaboski]

I want it sooooo bad!

[@Milka_1901]

Cool!!!!

[@AndyC3.0]

So if this is a zombie He-Man than that means He-man died ???

[@Wright805]

No, he was turned into a mindless slave by Hordak's Slime Pit. The zombie myth originally was that they were people who were drugged so that they appeared to be dead and were then partially revived and force-fed drugs to keep them docile and compliant so they could be used as slave labour. The original definition of a zombie is a mindless slave under another being's control. The idea of a zombie being an actual reanimated corpse is comparatively recent.

[@remc0s]

Loogie He-Man

[@adamofgrayskull7735]

Damn they really are milking the crap out of this

[@bryc2675]

Somewhere Brandon is mad and i dont blame him lol

[@bryc2675]

Not sure. Brian from super 7 said on gooble roast podcast the he was no longer there didnt really elaborate on it. Its ashame hes no longer there at Mattel He was pushing for the re start of Thundercats Classics by Mattel also as well as some motu stuff

[@bryc2675]

unclassified but i think either way it sucks bc he was someone who really cared about the 80s toy lines. He may have just left to do other things hes a pretty gifted artist also
