MOTU

[Reconsgt]

Any of you guys collect master of the universe?

I was cleaning out some toy boxes at my dads house and I found some old guys, the problem is I don't really collect them and don't remember alot about them from my youth. I was wondering if they are complete, proper names to them and so forth. Is there a site that has a good archive.

Sorry, I did not collect them, but this site may help you out.

Thanks that was a great site.

Very helpfull.. I have saw the new stuff in the store but I am not a big fan. I just wanted some pics to see if they were still complete and that. I don't know what I am going to do with them yet.

Does anyone here have the Eternia playset? I'm thinking of trying to get one of these but I want to know what the typical problems are with the playset and how well it holds up. I see a few on ebay from time to time and I see parts all the time but before I go working on putting together one of these massive playsets I want to get an idea of what I'm getting myself into. I'd have started a new thread but I figured this would be good enough to cover vintage MOTU instead of putting it into the New MOTU thread.

I have one, have not put it together since i was a kid. I remember is being awesome and connecting all of the playsets together. I think the slides normally broke or bent bandly. I would look out for that.

So I came across this the other day in my pursuit of an Eternia set.

Yeah, I may want an eternia set...but I don't want one that bad.

You could buy a car with that much money.

I remember seeing a whole mountain of those Eternia playsets at a KB back in the day. If only I had disposable income back then. I wouldn't have to buy Powerball tickets these days- I could just sell Eternia playsets.
