Nerds around the world should be psyched by the latest licensing agreement between Mattel and THQ — it includes Masters of the Universe (He-Man)! Here’s a clip from the official press release:
The companies will also collaborate to expand the video game and interactive potential of newer properties such as Monster High and longtime Mattel favorites such as Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots, Masters of the Universe, Polly Pocket and others.
While enjoying the exploits of a man dressed in a prehistoric bathing suit and sporting a Prince Valiant haircut seems off these days, I absolutely loved the He-Man and the Masters of the Universe cartoons as a kid. I’m hoping for an old-school beat-’em-up that makes me feel like I’m playing with He-Man action figures on my television.
Out of curiosity, who was your favorite Masters of the Universe character? Ram Man was my favorite — both in the cartoon and as an action figure. Also, did anyone else feeling like beating the crap out of Orko every time he was on screen?
