Mattel is re-launching MOTU in 2020 as Masters of the Universe Origins. The figures will be styled after the classic 5.5" line but with 16 POA and swappable parts. They will be mass retail for $14.99 and will include mini comics. And by mass retail I mean pre-order at BBTS because distribution will blow. No word on how this will affect Super 7's license to produce MOTU Classics, Reaction, etc but speculation is that Mattel will pull back the license thereby ending those lines.
The MOTU Mega Construx line continues with Dread Point w/Talon Fighter, Roton w/Merman, Sky Sled with Prince Adam and several new mini figs including Battle Cat, Panthor, Fisto, Moss Man and a bunch of repaints.

Turtles, anyone? Besides the regular Playmates line, Super 7 will be doing both 7" and Reaction 3.75" Turtles. These seem to all be based on the original 80's Playmates figures. Neca will have 3 lines running simultaneously...cartoon designs at Target, movie designs as Gamestop, and video game designs that will be specialty store exclusives (BBTS, EE, etc.). That's a lotta Turtles.

I loved everything I saw on that MOTU Construx display. I have always wanted a smaller scale He-Man series and these MC MOTU are scratching that itch just right. Not sure we need another regular He-Man and Skeletor release but I am pleased to see the ones with Panthor and Battle Cat are the armored variants. Also good to see a (non-flocked) Moss Man single release for those that can't get the SDCC Mega Construx Battle Bones set. (I know Matty sometimes offers their exclusives to non-antendees but I have not seen that option with the Battle Bones set). (BTW, the Castle Grayskull set is down to $219.07 at Wal-Mart/Amazon. It goes under $200, I might actually get it finally).

Didio's failure to understand this is another reason why he should not be the guy in charge.
