Another Random MOTUC rant

So MOTUC is wrapping up and Mattel has all these parts and stuff. They say that they COULD (being the operative word here) Revisit a few Older Figures and give them a 2.0 Treatment AFTER they complete "The Wrap-Up years". I did make a previous rant about revisiting characters and doing a 2.0 version of them a while ago.

Simply doing 2.0 (or 3.0) versions of some characters cheapens the first versions in a way. (As seen with BP She-Ra compared to Normal She-Ra)
Also, we'd need something Bigger than just "Fixing issues on older figures" to make more people bite.

Now HERE is where the Randomness begins.

You know Secret of the Sword, right: The Origin of She-Ra and all that. We know it starts with the Kidnapping of Baby Adora... Well, how about we have Spector trying to stop the Kidnapping of Adora, but accidentally allowing Adam to get Kidnapped. So we have a divergent timeline where Adam was raised by the Horde and Adora lived on Eternia. Due to the changes in the timeline, The SotS should play out different. Not to mention the world. Something old, something new... and all that.

So, here's a crazy idea: a Year-long MOTUC Event to retell this story via mini comics included with each of the figures. (Another Reason to Buy the Sub) New stories and treading familiar territory, seems like a win win.

12 Monthlies, 1 Sub Exclusives and 4 Extra Slots (2 figures, 2 Large Scale Items)

Here's the list of characters and the "Changes" done to them. (Will try to not use new parts unless it's severely needed... as always)

-He-Man
Here's the catch. While Adora/She-Ra is carrying the Power Sword, Adam/He-Man get the Sword of Protection. Unlike some Fan-Art that depict a naked She-Ra with the He-Harness and a Cross Dressing He-Man, he will NOT be like that.
Normal He-Man buck, NA Bracers in Classic Colors, King Grayskull Loincloth in He-Man colors, Red Keldor Cape, Dittzroyer Boots with He-Man feet.
New Pieces:
-Texeira inspired Longer He-Man hair (As seen in the Mini Comic, He-Man meets Ram Man)
-200X inspired Harness WITHOUT the huge tabs to hold King Grayskull's cape.
-Male sized Sword of Protection
(Extra accessory: Crownless Randor head)

-She-Ra
Her Skintone should be IDENTICAL to Bubble Power She-Ra.
She should have Teela's boots.
New Pieces:
-Upper Dress (with her Vintage toy Insignia)
-Vintage Toy Cape
-Female Power Sword.
(extra Accessory: New Head for Bow with a 4 Claw Scar on his face)

-Tri-Klops

(extra Accessory: Arm for Trap Jaw: TJ Shoulder HP Bicep and Forearm in TJ black with blue accents)

-Skeletor
This one is rather easy: Same old Skeletor but using the Kobra Khan Boots, Keldor Cape,Whiplash forearms, Demo-Man feet and Geldor Loincloth in Skeletor colors. Havoc Staff in Filmation Colors.
New Pieces:
-Armor (Inspired by the "Shredder armor" from He-Ro: son of He-Man)
(Extra Accessory: New 200X Inspired greaves for Beastman)

-Fake-Ra (Sub Exclusive)
Instead of being a Duplicate made By Skeletor, this Fake-Ra was made by the Horde.
Basically Take the MOTUC Catra dress and Shokoti cape and fit that body with the BP She-Ra forearms and Octavia boots. Give She- Ra a Hordak inspired palette. Gray Skin, vampire flesh face, black dress. Use the She-Ra 1.0 Holey Head and Tiara so, when the TIara is off we have battle damage. Female Power Sword in Red
(Extra Accessory: Female Sword of Protection in Red)

-Adam
Normal He-Buck with: NA He-Man's Ponytailed head, NA He-Man's forearms, Plundor's loincloth, Blade's boots. (In Adam colors), Horde Armband, Draego Sword in Silver
New Pieces:
-Vest with Holster for sword.
(Extra Accessory: 200X Inspired Tunic and scarf for Orko.)

-Teela
Basically 200X Teela in the 2.0 body (only weapon Staff of Ka)
New pieces:

-Fisto
This is almost a Redeco of the normal Fisto with a more reddish color on his hair and wearing the Vikor Loincloth.
New Pieces:
Torso Armor WITHOUT the 200X Sword Holster.
(Extra Accessory: Samurai Belt for Jitsu)
-Horde Troopers (Large Scale Item)
Do you need to ask WHY these are here? These would be a repaint. Instead of the Normal Trooper colors, the Gray would be darker and the Visor would be red. no shield, staff or crossbow for them.
(Extra accessory: 1 Horde Armband per trooper.)

-Roboto

New Pieces:

(Extra Accessory: New 200X Jetpack for Stratos)

-King Hssss (Large Scale Item)
Fixed Shoulders, Same old Hsss but with Draego-Man Forearms, He-Ro Greaves and Demo-Man feet. The Sanke Torso would not be mad from Bendy Plastic
New Pieces:
-Head (with a more 200X face)
-Removable hands
-Snake Hands
(Extra Accessory: Spector's Whip)

So, yeah it's purely revisions/variants of already made characters whose justification relies on a mini comic story loosely inspired by canonical events with Spector in a main role. It helps fix SOME Mistakes of past releases (Hssss, Frosta, Roboto, while it updates some figures that do not necessarily NEED an upgrade (Adam, He-Man) and it also gives a second chance to get some characters that did not get a reissue (Tri-Klops, Scareglow) also, MORE HORDE TROOPERS!

With that said I'm not saying that THIS has to happen. This is just a suggestion on how to spruce up the idea of some revisions to older characters. a boring set of rereleases or tweaked upgrades might not sell on its own. Mattel needs to figure out a way to spice things up to make the "Possible upgraded figures" more desirable. But "Logistics" will butt its head and say that it's undoable.
