By the time the Snakemen line came out the line was already unofficially cancelled by retailers not ordering anymore stock after they couldn't get rid of peg after peg of nothing but "Disco Skeletor".
If they had held out a little longer for the Snakemen line the line probably would have continued at retail, as would have the cartoon. But Mattel's mismanagement doomed the line and it was too expensive to continue solely at comic shops. What's truly frightening is that you could get Disco Skeletor for a couple dollars on clearance at Walmart back then and now he appears to be the highest priced Skeletor of the line selling for around $35 on eBay MOC.

I'm certainly hoping its more than the same robot painted 5 different ways, but I guess we shall see.

I wouldn't say 5 different decos of the same figure, but I'm predicting two types at the very least; a straight road (Soundbarrier) and an intersection.

I'll probably only get one. 2 at the most if I like the bot mode enough.
