iphgix: Speaking of the castle it is sitting on the back porch being played with by my kids right this very moment, Though He-man has suffered serious injuries where his legs fall off all the time, and all but the skeletor where his armor dents when you press it have been destroyed. Hawkman has been missing an arm for over a decade and man at arms is man-no-arms as well.
A touching picture!

Narcia_: Honourable mention goes to Snout Spout! Cyborg elephant with a tragic past that's also a squirt gun? Yup.
Poor Snout Spout... btw everyone interested in the giveaway should read this brilliant article that really had me laughing my ass off:
The 14 Least Masterful Masters of the Universe
Glad you find thi GA fun. Don't know about the fuzzy version (my brother had the "regular" one).

tinyE: Not in but this never gets old.
What's Goin' On?
I was sure this would pop up at some point...

Crispy78: Honourable mention has to go to Ram Man because, well, it was a more innocent age then if they could get away with calling him that!
LOL (Rio Blast... didn't remember that at all!)

Punished_Snake: Per la forza di Greyskull!
...la grande forza è con me!
I used to like Orko, the action figure was somewhat similar to a whipping top.
And for the bad guys, Webstor, the Spiderman wannabe that had a backpack with a mechanism for climbing, it was a cool thing.

I didn't attach great importance to the He-Man/Adam thing. I mean, nobody could see that Clark Kent was Superman with glasses and it's a fact that He-Man is better than Superman, so it is obvious that the trick must also work for him.

Thanks for the giveaway!

Not in, but thanks.
Count me in, I love Masters of the Universe!!! I am a huge fan of the Comics and all 3 cartoon series.

My favourite hero - definitely Man-E-Faces, he was a great character, and I loved how he could change his face it was so awesome.

My favourite villain - either Stinkor, such a fun and fresh (pun intended) character with a rather unique power, or Trap Jaw, especially in much of the art that makes him look even more of a badass.

+1 for such a generous giveaway on an amazingly fun classic cartoon series. :)
Oooh Masters of the Universe! I was big into this when I was a wee lad, I even had Castle Greyskull and Skeletors citadel. :)

My favorite good guy was Battlecat! Favorite villain was Skeletor.

I think people didn't realize Prince Adam was He-man because of the personality change: more confidence, determination and intensity probably changed his features, expression, demeanor and body language so much he seemed like a different person.

Thanks for the giveaway!
Well, I used to watch both He-Man and She-Ra but I wasn't that much of a fan. Then again, there was not much to see in those days.

Count me in and +1 for you.

A) She-Ra: Well, she was a girl that was almost as powerful as He-man but didn't have a muscular body.
B) Hordak: He reminded me of Space Agent Cobra's psycoarm weapon, which I consider to be the most powerful weapon ever created.

Well, I also hated Orco. I don't know if the voice of the translation had anything to do with it, but anyway. If it wasn't for the remake of He-man, which I consider to be a good one, I might have not remember quite well.

Regarding why nobody realizes Prince Adam is He-man, that is easy: Princes are suppose to be high society people that don't fight and are always clean, but He-man looks like a Barbarian who is always fighting so he must be dirty, besides the clothes of Prince Adam might hide his muscular body or maybe the reason why He-man wears few clothes is so people look at his muscles instead of his face.
I am in :)!

Between my brother & sister & I we had a lot of these toys in the early 80's.

A) My favourite Good Guy: Ram Man! I loved his spring-loaded body which could smash things!

B) My favourite Bad Guy was Trap Jaw! He's just soooooo cool! I loved his interchangeable weapons.

Thanks for the fun giveaway, cose_vecchie!
I'm in. Great idea this.
My fav good character was Teela. Her hotness rivals that of Daphne from Scooby Doo.
For bad boys I'd vote for Trap Jaw for his weapons expertise.

Come to think of it, the hottest cartoon girls of all time are redheads: Daphne, Teela, and Ariel. Hmmm

KILL HIM! KILL HIM NOW!
Better still................let´s make an example out of it with "The Clockwork Orange" technique but with He-Man :D

KILL HIM! KILL HIM NOW!
Don't you mean "BUY HIM THE ENTIRE SERIES AND MAIL IT TO HIM!!"? Cause he can't watch it if he's dead...
The winner on badassery alone has to be . They created him by welding Bruce Campbell's hand from <i>Army Of Darkness</i> to [url=http://pixel.nymag.com/imgs/thecut/slideshows/2014/4/beards/15-grizzly-adams.nocrop.w624.h746.jpg]Grizzly Adams. He's more man than any five other Masters characters combined, including the ones with Man in their names.

Runner-up has to be Mekaneck. How confident must he be in his abilities to voluntarily increase the size of one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body? Even moreso in a world where every other person carries a giant ax.
I'm in. Thanks!
Hero: He-Man because he had excellent hair. Okay, it's because he was bad ass.
Villain: Hordak because he was way scarier and generally more competent than Skeletor. Sure, Skeletor has his appeal (that I appreciate more now than I did as a kid, I suppose), but Hordak was better.
