They look pretty cool. Skeletor reminds me of the old Snakeman SSqueeze, but cooler looking.

They made Skeletor a snakeman? Whyyyyyy???????? As if there aren't enough of him.

Hiss looks fairly nifty, though.

First of all, someone mentioned these (as in MOTU figures) were getting a European release (truth be known, I think it was Brend). Can anybody say yay or nay on that count?

Second, I like those Snakemen. But Snake Strike Skeletor is just the Snake Armour Skeletor (part of a TRU 2-pack with Wolf Armour He-Man,which if anybody wants to send one my way I won't complain

) with some s~~~ looking snake arms. Its ****. But, as I said, the rest of the Snakemen are good.

Indeed it was I. And according to reports over at the Transfans toy forum, they're already in Woolies.

Woohoo! Cheers, Brend.

MOTU figures have started appearing in the Toys'R'us by me, along with the Magnus and Hot Rod reissues and a stack of unwanted RiD Prime... my local Woolies, on the other hand, has zilch of anything...

*edit*

In this case, the original Snakemen figures were actually better...

I like them, but the angles are a bit harsh...I prefer something based on a snake to be smooth...

King Hiss seems to still be suffering from the problem his original figure had, the snake arms are way too short, but it looks like the jaws are at least hinged this time around.

About the only toys I´ve been waiting for from the new MotU-liune are Hordak´s goons and snake men. Now it seems I can forget about buying the snake men.

Thanks again, Bend. Got Man-At-Arms and Mer-Man; thus completing my series one collection bar the battle sound figures. That really is a f~~~ing turn-up in St. Helens' Woolies. TRU at Gemini was fillied with TMNT and MOTU...
