My She-Ra had the sword broken off as well

I guess I am a lucky one with the sword. She has fallen off my shelf a few times (my son plays with my MOTU shelf a lot!) and is holding strong. Each time I see her on the ground I think the sword will be broken (she has since been moved to the back of the shelf).

Uh oh. Sorry to hear that for so many of you. My She Ra came directly from Funko and had no issues at all.

Agreed. I thought the figure was well done! Bravo Funko!! =D>

Grabbed the BA He-Man on Battle Cat from the shop today. Will look awesome next to She-Ra.

It really is pretty fantastic!! I think we talked about this earlier in this thread, but I was concerned it would look too toy-like since Dorbz don't have legs and therefore his legs can't wrap down the sides to make it look like he's riding on it. And the detail for that is a little awkward, but overall it looks much better than I thought it would. Now does anyone remember Brian's hint, didn't he make it sound like there would be more than one Ridez? I'll have to dig it up.

So excited about the Battle Cat Ridez today! Bring on more MOTU!! Pre-ordered the Dorbz set with chases from Ferrara Market and waiting for them to ship and arrive is torture. Can't wait until everything arrives to take some pics

"And a few extremely cool Ridez!!!!"

I'd assume we'll get 2 more.

Hoping for more MOTu rides. Please please please let one of them be Swiftwind!

Beat me to it, I just found it too :-)

Yes how awesome!!! So if there are two they would have to be She-Ra/ Swift Wind and Skeletor/ Panthor wouldn't they? Man wouldn't those three make an amazing set together!!

Postby **synergy56** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 1:41 pm

I need both those Ridez. Need them, I say!!

Postby **treswright** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 1:51 pm

Funko needs to do it if for no other reason than so we can hear all the cheers and singing from Merri and Princess :-D

Postby **DonCaballero** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 2:07 pm

I need a skeletor dorbz ride in my life

Postby **Geescube** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 2:11 pm

I might have to do the Skeletor/Panthor set if it happens

We will be deafening. Between us I think our rejoicing would be heard around the world lol

If anyone wants to join in they can start learning the Secret of the Sword theme song now :-"

I'm sure we will get Skeletor on Panthor. AND I CAN"T WAIT.

Its for sure needed to go with the current one.

Agreed 10000%. Although I'd want the Skeletor one for myself too honestly. Don't know why. Just like Skeletor. lol

Postby **Arloe8** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 4:54 pm

Maybe Skeletor will Gitd since they tend to vary the drivers on the ridez and If we do get a Swift-wind fingers crossed for Princess Adora!

This line is shaping up nicely. Another week, another stellar Dorbz ridez.

Postby **Princess** » Wed Jan 18, 2017 4:58 pm

If they do Panthor AND Swift wind......I think my head would literally explode with joy. Even with this possibility....I neeeeeeed them. I agree that a gitd Skeletor on Panthor would be awesome.

I need Swift wind to come pick me up so I can go get my battle cat Ridez in my hot little hands today. Darn you international shipping times!

That's because he's the true hero of the story... Just keeps getting bullied by a man in a loin cloth and his friends. It's sad.

So is there anyway for those outside the US to get He-Man and Battlecat that I'm not aware of? I went to buy it and I only had the USA option.

Wish it wasn't seemingly exclusive to the shop or at least give another option for those in places like Australia to be able to get it.

You'd have to buy it and ship it to someone in the US essentially and then have them ship to you.

Yup and how is he supposed to succeed when his "friends" are just bros that make bad choices??

If there was a Skeletor / Panthor set, Panthor should be flocked like the vintage release I remember so well...

Didn't they have a flocked Battlecat as well? Gosh I miss the 80's :compress:

That would be an awesome exclusive!

Yeah, looking into that at the moment or one of those parcel forwarders. Just wish it was easier.

Great throwback pic Michael...man I was 8 years old back in 1984. The 80's were great

Postby **Icetenka** » Thu Jan 19, 2017 3:16 am

All the talk about the MOTU Dorbz rides is getting me excited. I almost fell out of my seat at work when I saw He-man with Battle Cat as the exclusive of the week. Can't wait to see what they come out with next for the Dorbz rides.

Awww, gone like so many of our childhood collections! We outgrow them, they lay forgotten in our parents houses as we move away to college or elsewhere, our parents purge all those old toys, then we start getting older and working and develop a nostalgia for our childhood toys and recollect them at 100 times the price lol

Agreed. Brett is evil. But an 8-pack would be awesome. I just want all the characters from He-Man and She-Ra. That's not too much to ask for, right? RIGHT? :eek:

Also, I am still hoping for a bunch of Skeletor mini Hikari. MOTU collecting is going to lead me happily into the poor house #-o
