Masters of the Universe x Transformers Crossover Figures Revealed at SDCC

So not impressed by this. It’s kind of lazy really.

Of the two I am only slightly tempted by megatron skeletor- man st arms seems lazy- can only assume there is a heroptimus hiding in the shadows

Bumblebee armor would get wet in the rain. Man-at-arms would be better off just in his birthday suit.

Agreed with kuhlio. In fact, this continues a trend of laziness that I've noticed brewing in the MOTUxTMNT offerings I pass every time I'm in Target. In addition to the non-transforming, Bee-At-Arms is almost nonensical. Ironhide-At-Arms would make more sense, while Bee seems like a more natural Orko...no wait, Wheeljack-O inventing new magic spells that misfire would kind of jive. Bumblebee should be mashed-up with Cringer, then powered up into Gold-Battle-Bug when he has the power.

And while Opt-He-Mus is inevitable...Hot Rod would work SO much better. I have believed that ever since I read that first Blackthorne 3D book where Hot Rod was sure Rodimus would show up and save the day. Although we never learned what those "weekend plans" would've been in a proper issue #2, I always pictured him taking out the Matrix and declaring:

"By the Power of Primus, light--"

*SPAKOW!* (blinding flash)

"--Ourrr Darrrrkest HOUUUUURRRRR!"

Then he hops on Sky Lynx's lower half, and...

No, I'm not faulting any official x-over for not adhering to my 5-second fanfic, and I really try not be that guy, but this is gonna' suck briefly, then be instantly forgotten outside of a few wikis. I'll admit, I was never a He-Fan back in the day, but I hope that franchise isn't just plain out of ideas other than crossovers.

Easy pass for me.

Today at 9am PST, Mattel is scheduled to open up preorders for a "surprise announcement" for Masters of the Universe collectors. Target has beaten Mattel to the punch and has already opened up preorders for the next installment of the the MOTU X Transformers line. This time it is Optimus Prime Armor He-Man. Like Bumblebee Armor Man-At-Arms and Megatron Armor Skeletor, this figure is a MOTU Classics buck He-Man with Matrix Power Sword, Energy Shield, Orange Energy Axe, and removable faceplate. The Target pre-order is slated for a January release.

For members of Club Grayskull, an announcement of a hero--- and villain was sent out yesterday. Rumors are floating around that the second figure will be the Starscream Armor Scareglow, but no confirmation or official images have surfaced as of yet.

Mattel's Club Grayskull has posted official images of the Starscream Armor Scare Glow. This figure is part of the MOTU Classic play pattern where parts can be mixed and matched between bucks. The Starscream armor is added onto a Scareglow buck, that according to packaging still has the glow in the dark features. Additional accessories include Coronation gear (crown, cape),and a set of nullrays that will provide Starscream's signature wings.

The figure is currently available for preorder via Club Grayskull at$33.00 ($42.99 if you need to sign up for Club Grayskull) with a release date of May 8,2026. The earlier reported Optimus Prime He-Man armor is also available to Club Grayskull members here with the same price and release date.

Sorry- entirely my bad- Club Grayskull was included as a $10/yr premium. I am not a huge MOTU guy, so I just saw the price on Mattel's site, and did not realize they had already had the membership added onto the price of the figure,

100% with you. The only one with any appeal to me is Skeletron- everything else seems like a cheap Halloween costume

Clearly none of Sekeletor´s minions work for SS.

Beastman? Triklops? TrapJaw? Merman? Nope....

EvilLyn maybe...


I am calling a Shattered Glass Prime Armor Faker though.

Possibly unpopular opinion: Some cross-overs shouldn't exist.
