Major Spoilers Poll of the Week: Muscle bound and oiled up edition

Posted on by

Occasionally we like to throw two fictional characters into the Major Spoilers Pit and let them fight it out in a no holds barred battle of wits and fisticuffs to see who will climb out victorious.  Today, we do it again with two muscle bound characters who are sure to bring the crowd to their feet.

In the far corner (of the round pit) stands He-Man of Eternia, who raises his mighty sword and claims “By the Power of Grayskull! I have the power!”

And in the other corner stands the barbarian from Cimmeria – CONAN!

FIGHT!

Who would win in a fight?

COMICS PORTAL: The Latest in Crossover Magic

Posted on by

I’ve always been a fan of when heroes from different universes meet (or clash, as the case may be). For instance, I would love to see a new Marvel/DC crossover take place. Justice League of America/Avengers is still one of my all-time favorite books!

Or – “The Biggest Question: Will They Use Orko?”

“I am Adam, Prince of Eternia and defender of the secrets of Castle Greyskull.  Fabulous secret powers were revealed to me the day I held aloft my magic sword and said: “By the power of Greyskull!  I have the Power!”  I became He-Man, the most powerful man in the universe!  Only a few others share this secret… Our friends: The Sorceress, Man-At-Arms and Orko.  Together we defend Castle Greyskull from the evil forces of Skeletor!”

Did anyone else think that He-Man sounded just like Morris the Cat?

Major Spoilers POW! (Poll of the Week): He-Man vs. Superman – FIGHT!

Posted on by

There have been some really weird crossover comics, until I wandered down the toy aisle and saw the Superman vs. He-Man action figure two pack, I completely forgot that the two actually met in a DC crossover event in 1982.  Back then, Superman was able to bring He-Man down with a well placed punch, but both characters have gone through an evolution since then.  So…

FIGHT!

FIGHT! Superman vs. He-Man

Battle damaged He-Man appears

Posted on by

Mattel is showing off the battle damaged He-Man variant, that allows players to change the chest plate to reflect any damage the protector of Eternia may suffer.

This toy does not feature a spinning tumble, but does include all three chest plates – standard, one smash, and my personal favorite, two smashes!

He also comes with his heroic Battle Axe just like in the famous painting of Battle Armor He-Man on top of Battle Cat. (anyone have the art book?)

Battle Armor He-Man goes on sale January 15, only at the MattCollector.com website.
