Scott Toy Guru Neitlich of Spector Creative reviews a quasi unreleased MOTU project Planned for 2014, The Fall of Eternia project was an attempt to create a media rich Masters of the Universe story line and product offering including toys, comics, and potentially a video game and Direct to DVD movie. While the project fell apart, much of the story line was incorporating into the Masters of the Universe Classics Mini Comics and even the DC New 52 MOTU comics. Find out the whole story only on Spector Creative!

Thanks again Scott for this great video. Few days ago, the Stratos, Tri-Klops and Hordak figures arrived at our local malls, the Prince Adam and Sky Sled vehicle were available here few weeks ago. I remember my first Shadows of the Empire vehicle was the Swoop bike and Swoop trooper figure. The sculpt of the vehicle and figure were awesome!

I think that if they brought Scott on board for a new live action movie and planned a serious relaunch, He-Man could be back and stronger than ever. MotU has such a deep and fascinating lore that there really is no reason it can't spawn multiple shows and projects. It's still near and dear to the hearts of us old people and kids like it today too. It's like a cooler version of Conan. It's a rich and deep as Star Wars. I'd love to see what it could be in years to come.

@@spectorcreative1872 Definetly. At least it continued but further from the original mark the shorter the run. The original was closest to the ancient mythologies that we subconsciously gravitate towards. When you see them all from ancient to modern as the same. Them we know he man is weak good. Hordak is weaker wicked but Skeletor is strong evil, judgment for the wickness. Not making the 3 fold distinction killed MOTU.

Hey Spector Creative, haven't watched this video yet, but I found an old Mattel slideshow presentation in a portfolio online. In it looks to be He-Man reboot art circa 2013-2014. Still learning a lot about this franchise, but any clue on what this was supposed to be?

@johnmorey720 3 года назад
I think the main difficulty with giving MOTU a big retail presence again (and the current retro line isn't really a "big" presence, let's be honest) is how much it is n '80s brand tied to nostalgia. It's ultimately less adaptable than others from that period, such as GI Joe or Transformers - the styles, the character names, everything is tied to that early-'80s toy atmosphere. It's harder to "update," and because its pre-existing fanbase is so insular and nostalgia-driven, you CAN'T update the designs without pushback. So you're stuck with a very specific phenomenon from a specific era for specific people - one can think of other trends that were huge in their time and are still thought well of, but just haven't made the "epic" comeback people would expect. (I like ram horn Skeletor, BTW)

Thanks again for a great video. I've heard and always thought that when the popular 2002 cartoon came around, Mattel had huge problems getting toys out. When they finally came out, it was too late. The cartoon ended when the toys came, and sales were low from the start. Also having way too many heman's instead of a nice mix of figures. Any insight on this?

I appreciate what Toy Guru has brought to the MOTU line while their Brand Manager but this all reads like bad fan fiction. It's sole purpose seems top be to build some type of continuity but trying to tie together what made MOTU awesome from the beginning with many bad and failed followups is not a good idea in my opinion.

While it may be viewed as cruel to the creators, I'd forgotten just how awful I felt later MotU toy designs were. Rather than convince me to buy yet another version of He-Man, designs like Laser Power He-Man were to me instead ill-conceived desperate last gasps from a now (then) irrelevant and dying line. Though I admit that I was a sucker for Battle Damage He-Man and Skeletor. (I will also run against the commenter consensus by saying that I'm not fond of the ram head Skeletor design, though maybe when I was a kid I'd have liked it.)

Is this story arc part of the reason why She-Ra and He-Man are now separate? If I am the IP owner of She-Ra, do I really want my star character connected to He-Man when her ultimate fate is that she is a major villain. Or was there going to be a redemption arc for Adora? As sure He-Man and Teela get together and have a kid. Skeletor and Evil Lynn get together and have a kid. But what was the end goal for Adora? Was she simply going to remain a brainwashed minion to Horde Prime? Was she going to remain a major villain? Or was the ultimate plan to have her become She-Ra again? What of her and Bo? Did they marry? Did they have children? Again while the villain character of Adora looks cool, as someone who is also a She-Ra fan it kind of sucks that she is made a villain and there really is no redemption to her.

That would of been awesome I would of loved that! As a Fan and inspiring Writer/Comic Artist I have had ideas of my own that deal with a alternate HE-MAN Universe where Skeletor Won. I have always wondered if HE-MAN had a "G.I.JOE Worlds Without End" type Storyline like other Cartoon Series seem to have periodically. In my HE-MAN Universe Story we would deal with the Alternative HE-MAN Universe that was created when Gwildor as a favor and good deed used his Cosmic Key to send Julie Winston (played by Courtney Cox) and Kevin Corrigan (played by Robert Duncan) back to Earth but a little further back in time in order for her to save her parents from a Airplane Crash. With this small action Gwildor created a new Universe where the same events have played out on his World but this time back on Earth Julie and Kevin would not be there to bump into HE-MAN, MAN-AT-ARM'S and TEELA to lend a helping hand and without Kevins' Musical Talents (HE-MAN Movie Spoiler) there would be noone there to remember the Tune that would allow the Cosmic Key to send our friends back home to stop Skeletor. In this Universe the Parents of Julie are still alive and that one single change would cause a different situation for Julie to grow up in and sending her and Kevin down a different path. In this Universe HE-MAN and his friends would remain trapped on Earth much longer then before allowing Skeletor time to finish draining the Sorceress Power and conquering Castle Greyskull and Eternia. Now sometime later HE-MAN and his friends would eventually find the Magic of a Keyboard and a way back home but this time no Time Traveling just a port back to Eternia's Present Time where they would find a destroyed Eternia, a Captured Castle Greyskull and a band of Rebels fighting to regain control and defeat Skeletor to become MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!

The story of "The Fall of Eternia" is good , but would not work well for a toy playline . Kids would need figures in many stage , for example in the case of Skeletor : Skeletor (normal) , Keldor with damaged face , Demo-man , Skeletor with horns , glowing Keldor ..... 5 figures of the same character are too much , if I would be a kid and would own all the 5 figures I would only use the normal Skeletor to play .

So that's where the comics got ram horn Skeletor and King He-Man from.. The writers are known for doing their own thing in a lot of adaptations, wasn't sure how much leeway they were given here.
