Yeah, I saw them at my Toys R Us a few weeks ago but I've already packed all my MOTU figures away, so I passed on them.

There's a He-Man action figure exclusive to Canada?

Cool!

Wait, I thought that was a joke because the figures are so hard to find. Do we really get an exclusive (ie - trade fodder for Joes?).

I posted a thing over on Joe Customs and nobody responded, but from my memory of the situation, Mattel made the Snake Men series in really low numbers, and therefore next to nothing showed up in North America.

But I have no confirmation on this, it is all rumors and hearsay.

New News again....Toys R Us bought 2400 cases of the new Snakemen assortments...including Snake Armour Heman...Claw Attack Stratos...and Snake fighter Orko??? These figures will be sorted into the cases as the older Snakemen sell down...so when Kinghiss is all gone the Orkos and so on will start filtering in!!! I am glad to have talked to a Toys R Us district manager about this...so this news sound be right on the money...he does not collect but says Heman is a great line and they never had trouble selling the figures...just the vehicles and so on!!!

Sounds good to me!!!!!!!!!
