afigures.com/g/?mode=album&album=2004_SDCC%2FMattel%2FMOTUWord is that Mattel is shopping the line around to U.S. retailers again to see if they can get these back on the shelves here in the states. With as much interest in these figures from our online reader's we think it would be a good investment for any retailer looking to give this line a second chance. credit TNI This is incredible! Snout Spout, Clamp Champ, STINKOR!, Sorceress, TUNG LASHOR!, HORDAK! CLAWFUL! I only hope they get it right and release these guys more plentiful than the previous ones. The only way this line can survive is for them to rerelease older figures in their original colors, so people can get who they want! Come on Mattel, get it right!

The MOTU line has come back more times than The Undertaker. Doesn't it learn that it should die unless they drop all future He-man's and add elbow/knee articulation.

I was actually going to report this, but I couldn't find the article. Anyways, it seems like good news.
I do notice that there are no new He-man figures announced (although I wouldn't mind the snake-hunter one with pants).
I certainly hope that since future MOTU lines will be exclusive to specialty stores (like Mediaplay) Mattel will not be under such pressure to release He-man and Skeletors and release the side characters.

This is great news. I really wanted a new version of Hordak and Clawful. They really need to make a new Modulok!!!! Hopefully they rerelease all the other characters from the new line in original colors too as Robbie said since I never saw most of them.

Whoa... look at Stinkor. Talk about a makeover. I'd definitely pick a couple of those up. Wonder if Stinkor will smell like dirty socks this time around?
