Time for some weekend fun! Toyark forum member thechris put together a fun thread and poll. It lets you, the readers and forum members help to pick who you would want as the next Masters of the Universe Classics figure. He’s calling it…Eternian Idol! Sounds like fun!
Click the DISCUSS button to join in. Remember, this is all for fun. so sit back, relax and enjoy!
The figures choices here are of characters who may or may not have had figures in the past and may or may not have appeared in the Filmation cartoon. None of these figures have been confirmed yet (as far as I'm aware and that includes Ram Man). I left out the Rock People and other minor characters because well, quite honestly I don't like those smelly Rock People. They're lazy and just eat rocks all day and live off the money of hardworking tax paying Eternians. There, I said it.
But no, in all seriousness, I figured 4 rounds of this would be more than sufficient to determine who we want next. The winner of the first 3 rounds will square off in a 3 way dance with the winner to be determined by... yet another poll! Polling will run for a week starting today Friday, March 16th, 2012. Have fun and you're all more than welcome to debate and discuss who you think should be voted through before casting your all important vote.
Round 1
Mekaneck - Heroic warrior with the ability to extend his neck!
Multi-Bot - Evil Horde member who can assemble himself in different combinations!
Madame Razz - Annoying PoP equivelant of Orko...
Clamp Champ - We thought we got him in the form of an Eternian Guard, but that turned out to be just a generic black guy. Racists...
Lizard Man - One of the most wanted figures of all time. He appeared in the original FILMATION series but never got a figure! What gives??
Jitsu - The evil Asian inspired counterpart to Fisto (Yeah, I thought it was Strongarm, too, but dude never got a toy)
Two-Bad - Cool looking two headed evil warrior.
Ninjor - Another awesome evil Asian inspired villain (I'm starting to see a trend here...)
Blast Attak - Dude gone and blowed himself up.
Dragstor - One of my favourite figures as a child. The guy is a half man, half dragster with a wheel in his torso for goodness sake! They'd better do him right and include a rip cord...

**UPDATE** Wow, okay, well that was unexpected. LOL. Out of nowhere, Two-Bad crept up on Jitsu for the draw. I guess the only fair way to determine a winner between those two is with a sudden death round to be held over a course of 3 days. I'd say bring them both into Round 4, but then I can see a this causing trouble for Round 3 as I can see 5 or 6 guys drawing at 1 or 2 votes. Anyhow, that's how it's going to be...
Wow, this is harder than I thought, but after much deliberating, I've decided to go with Dragstor. Reason being, Mekaneck and Ninjor are practically shoe-ins based on cool factor and importance alone and will likely be made whether or not fans demand it. I've got to give Dragstor my support. It was him or Multi-Boat and I've still got a chance to vote in Modulok in Round 2 for my modular toy fix. LOL. By the way, the results are public, not anonymous.
Damn this is a hard one. Narrowed it down to Lizard Man, Two Bad and Mechaneck..
Yeah, pretty tough decision. But I had to go with Jitsu. He's the last of what I consider to be the classic enemies. I also really want Two Bad and Dragstor, but I can imagine that Jitsu would be such an awesome figure. The 4H knocked it out of the park with Fisto. I'm sure Jitsu would get a similar treatment. Plus, when I was a kid I always considered Fisto and Jistu to be rivals.
I had to go with Jitsu, but Two Bad and Mekanek aren't too far behind for me. I'd like a Ninjor eventually too, but certainly not before Jitsu. He's key for me.
..and you really can't have a Fisto without a Jitsu to face off with.
Wow, Jitsu's way in the lead. LOL.
I predict that Ram Man wins over Jitsu in the end.
I can see them winning Rounds 1 and 2 respectively, but 3 consists of more obscure characters. I wouldn't mind Sea Hawk or Batros as far as cool looking figures go but I NEED Rattlor and Tung Lashor to flesh out my snakemen. If anyone in Round 3 wins over the first two contestants, I'd be very surprised.
I wish you went bracket style (NCAA tourney) with this, Chris... I'm ready to waste an entire day of my co's time on this gloomy Friday.
Nice job putting this together. Looks like fun. Posted it on the frontpage to help get more people to participate.
For Round 1 I had to go with Two-Bad. Too sweet.
All I gotta say is this...
I don't really care which rounds each of the figures are in. In fact I don't even care for any of the figures in round 3 at all.
All I care about is getting a Mech-A-Neck, Ram-Man, and possibly Jitsu now that I have Fisto.
I think I would stop collecting MOTUC once I had these. (Oh and a re-issue of Evil-Lyn because I haven't picked her up yet.)

Hmmm... to make this more interesting, I'm going to start lobbying for who I want to win, namely "Dragstor". Check out this amazing custom by someone who calls himself Masterenglish.
And I'm guessing the official version would look very close. Who wouldn't want that in their MOTUC collection?
^ Damn. That Dragstor custom looks pretty sweet.
Round one- Mekanek is a forgone conclusion since they have the parts already from Stinkor, so I have to go with Two-bad or Jitsu.

Round two- Any Horde person comes first for me, I loved my old Dragstor, and who did not enjoy the blood sucking chest action of Mosquitor. I would love to see a Scorpia the most, but Mantenna has to come first to get my basic Horde complete.
Round three- Hands down Rio Blast, two words SPACE-COWBOY.
AND how is a Horde Trooper not on this list?? I will need a dozen if they ever get made
Went with Two Bad, just to add to the ranks of Evil Warriors =3
Any classic based He-man would be Radical. But I went with Multi Bot, because I never had him as a kid.
Uh oh, looks Two-Bad like is creeping up on Jitsu... LOL.
Gotta go with TwoBad - He's too-bad-ass
Ram Man, Mekaneck, and Jitsu are my top 3 right now. I made a MOTUC from vintage checklist you can use if it helps:

Wow, Jitsu's leaving everyone in the dust now.
Last day for voting before Round 2. Get your votes in and hope your favourite makes it through to the next round. So far, Jitsu is winning, but still a chance to squeeze Mekaneck or Two-Bad through.
