Hey kid, Rokkon roll, ROKKON. He still looks lame. Guessing the rock plates are not removable, the head one obviously is part of the head sculpt.

Easy pass for me.
More fake space stuff, bleh.
This is also past the era where I was allowed to like He-Man anymore, so no nostalgia factor for me there.
There is so little of anything that interests me anymore.
I probably have the worst collecting attitude at this point.
The woke agenda really is trying to ruin everything I used to like.

It was more sci-fi/superhero leaning, and that's what the later characters that are more liked are Scare-Glow and the Snake-Men.
The heroic warriors especially went sci-fi. And the Horde after its first year.
His silver skin reminds me of the old Irwin Allen scifi shows from the 60's (Lost in Space, Time Tunnel, etc) where at least once a season there'd be silver-skinned aliens/robots/whatever.
Artwork makes him look so much better. One part of what hurts him in the tall rock plate on back his head.
Gee, I'm almost talking myself out of him entirely now.

Considering all the teased box art characters, yeah. I always read it as dem-o-man...like's a demolition or demonstration guy.

Yeah, my Eternia is here, massive. I haven't taken it out of the shipping box yet. Had other things to deal with this evening. Will be interesting to see how the box is, but it looks ok so far.

Well, Mattel moved the Rokkon preorder date to next wednesday, Feb. 21 (edit). Pretty chicken-shat thing to do so close to the original schedule.

Dem-O-Man is a figure you can pass on and will never miss.
Some mini-comic purists obsess about him, but they are obsolete now that the he-man.org forums are shut down.
Way to control the masses!

Ya'll ready to git yo' Rokkon? Edit: Well, that was easy. I got three for everyone of my phony accounts. So 21 in all. Nah, two. Because shipping is the same on two, so I can always sell the other maybe. I'm so looking forward to him. LOL.

The face kind of ruins the figure for me, but a buddy of mine got me one.
I guess I can keep him in rock form. LOL
