Mattycollector’s Facebook Page has been updated with the first official photos and info for the next Masters of the Universe Classics figure; Gygor.
Hey He-Fans!
So one of the big things we wanted to do for the MOTUC line is to introduce figures that never quite made it into the vintage line. Much like He-Ro, Gygor the gorilla made it as a prototype into the vintage line but no toy has been made…until now.
Originally based on the “Big Jim Gorilla” (much like Battlecat or Zoar) Gygor was set to be a large gorilla figure in the 1982 line. While he was cut due to logistics, we are proud to present the first ever MOTU Gygor figure in the new Classics line. Truly, this is what the MOTUC line is all about.
Gygor will be the third oversized beast in the 2010 line and will go on sale September 15th. He will not be part of the subscription (but the beasts will be added to the subs in 2011 per fan demand!)
The final oversized beast/pack for 2010 will be an army builder two pack shown off at our fan panel at SDCC on Friday July 23 at 1:00 in room 29ABC. See you all at Mattypalooza 2010~!

Masters Of The Universe Classics Gygor Revealed
Wow! That's a big ass ape! He towers over Grodd!
Wow he looks like he would rip your arms right off and keep on moving.
I think this is one of the best uses of the MOTUC line (along with Carnivus). They've gotten a good chunk of the highly desirable characters out out of the way. So it's nice to see the figures you never knew you wanted.
read the bio. it makes reference to"Oo-Lar the Jungle He-man". interesting.
Charleton Heston would crap in his pants if he saw that guy.
Is the assumption that he'll go for $30 like Battlecat?
Gygor looks great. Tempting. I'm also interested to find out who will be a part of that army builder two-pack.
These over-size MOTUC are just plain awesome. I really wish I didn't pass on Tytus. Is this scale estimation correct? Gygor is huge himself, but is Tytus really this big??!!!
Yeah, Tytus is around 12 inches tall (I think maybe slightly over). Gygor looks great! It is cool to see them do never-before-made characters like this.
An ape with an axe to grind? Crap...and the fact that he could double as an underling for Grodd? Sweet.
New MOTUC Gygor pictures for Sept 15, 2010 Matty sale.
is this similiar to or the same as the cygor from the mcfarlane line a few years back?
Looks like Gygor is now sold out.
