Sorry, the only IPs Mattel cares about are Barbie, Hot Wheels, and DC Comics. And He-Man for nostalgiafagging.

Street Sharks, Extreme Dinosaurs, and Mighty Max are dead to them because they don't appeal to 80sfags.

>>86300276

Ya know, with a better name and some character renaming, Extreme Dinosaurs would probably do really well today.

It would make more sense to compare He-Man to She-Ra as it would show what the same creators think of men vs woman.

But who cares, She-Ra and He-man thread. She-Ra's mount was best.

But he-man was voiced by a lesbian so he's a LGBT figure, not a manliness icon.

>>86300401
Honestly you have a point, I almost always see He-Man being made fun of, not held up as an icon like Barbie.

To be fair, He-Man is secretly a scrawny 90 lb weakling in a pink tunic, thereby making him a "male power fantasy"...

...the question is, would an IP about a frumpy/nerdy girl who magically transforms into a statuesque full grown superheroine be held up as a powerful metaphor for young girls to learn that inside each of them is a strong, capable woman? Or would it be accused of being patriarchy propaganda because it tells girls that they aren't "truly" beautiful unless they change their appearance?

Man, thinking about this, I kinda understand why Mattel made Princess Adora and She-Ra look friggin' identical - because they knew full well the minefield they'd be walking into otherwise.

>>86300760
Do it.
If you make her full nerdy give her some Toku influences too.

>>86300720
If I'm remembering correctly, and early concept of the cartoon was going to have Prince Adam be smaller than He-Man.

They didn't go through with this though, most likely because the cartoon had an animation budget of 23 cents.

>>86300760
have you ever heard of Amethyst: Princess of Gemworld?

>>86300789
Nope, but who cares. Can Swift wing, tear your enemies to shreds? For escape from a battle flying is good, for win a battle the second is certainly better.

War and battle are not pretty. For winning them, needs to be effecient. Battle Cat is built for doing serious damage to the enemy. And certainly helps ony with his appearance to intimidate them. He is a living war machine!

Toys and the mini-comics that came with them preceded the cartoon, however.

>>86301331
Prince Adam, appeared in the first DC comic book series.

He was completely different back then from the Filmation version. He was a bar brawler, a warrior prince, who has already super human strength. I believe that Mattel tried to bridge the two origins of He-Man in that version, the barbarian one and the prince.

>>86301676
Wait, who is this goddess that He-Man refers to? This isn't the first time I see a He-Man comic referencing a goddess, but I don't remember any goddess from the cartoon. Is it just another way of referring to the Sorceress?

The Goddess was the pre-Sorceress entity who in the mini comics, chose a tribal barbarian named He-Man, as her champion after she saved her. She was her, that gave him the weapons to fight the forces of darkness across Eternia. She was looking like a green skinned woman with a cobra outfit and staff.

>>86302549
Later when the Filmation cartoon introduced the Sorceress with the falcon/Zoar outfit, the cobra armor remained as part of Teela's action figure, who she was referred as the Warrior Goddess. In the mini comics though the cobra armor appearance continued to be the Sorceress's look, while Teela didn't have it.

I'd let her handle my snake staff if you know what I mean.

The Goddess's concept was abbandoned in the Filmation cartoon, and returned 30 years later with the new DC comic book series, becoming the look of Teela as the Sorceress, when she replaced her mother. This way the full circle was completed.

>>86305728
Back then it was because of Filmation's low animation budget, that they looked exactly the same. They would not supposed to, in the beginning. The original plan was that Adam should be at his late teens, and He-Man looking at his middle 20's and much more robust. This idea was materialized 20 years later in the 200X cartoon in which Adam was a teenager. Then later in the new comics the secret identity was abbandoned (never made sense anyway, since Adam's family as the rulers, would be targets anyway, and not only because of He-Man). In the crossover with DC when He-Man thought that he have killed Superman, he turned to Adam and surrendered hiself at JL, in front of anyone. Here you can also see the difference in size between Adam and He-Man.

Actually the other in-universe reason is that He-man looks like King Greyskull (who would have a strong family resemblance to Adam) so people for a time assumed he just manifested back somehow.

>>86309138
>>86306134
Even if never talked about, it's also worth considering that common knowledge makes Adam MORE of a target. Obviously he's a target to begin with, but if Skeletor knows he can take out He-Man by popping a few blasts in Adam while his guard is down, he might expend more resources on doing just that then he would taking out a "mere" prince.

From what DC revealed so far, it's not a "hero versus hero" story like the crossover with DC:

http://www.toonzone.net/comics/solicitations/2016-10/dc/he-man-thundercats-1-cover-a-cover-art/

"He-Man and the Masters of the Universe team up with the ThunderCats—the epic crossover event you’ve waited thirty years to see! In his ever-living desire to destroy the mighty ThunderCats, Mumm-Ra quests for a weapon that can rival the legendary Sword of Omens: He-Man’s Sword of Power! But his dimension-spanning scheme kick starts a cataclysmic crisis that will embroil heroes and villains—Masters, Mutants and ThunderCats—in a mind-blowing six-part saga!"

Females fight to drag down their idols to their own levels, so they don't have to feel uneasy about their own inadequacies. They see someone more beautiful than them, and all they get is jealous and angry for it.

Meanwhile, males look up to their idols as a goal to be achieved, as an example to follow. Males see James Bond or Conan and they want to be as smart and as strong as them.

That's modern feminism in a nutshell.

>>86311231

>>86300594
It depends on how you handle it, and even then someone will point it out, and weather or not on how you handle it will it will be looked at with joy or anger.

Let's say you handle it were someone in the show who knows the girl points this out, and the girl doesn't really think anything of it, or maybe the girl starts to feel uncomfortable when turning into the superheroine, maybe it could be a plot-point in the show?

The thing about it is that weather you like it or not, women generally care more about this type of stuff more then "us" guys so it should be handled with care imo.

Personally what I would do is have the idea of a frumpy/nerdy girl who magically transforms into a statuesque full grown superheroine but have where she's uncomfortable on how she looks and has it where she can can use her powers without changing her appearance and maybe learn how to be comfortable on how is already, actually that sounds like it could make for a fun family movie.

Anyway just make sure to handle the topic right, and talk to some other people and see how the they feel about it, and if you do end up making a show or movie like that, then if the topic is in it and you don't want to do too much with it or make it a big deal then just do this

>"Main Characters best friend"-Wow I just realized how pretty you look when you transform.
>"Main Heroine"-Oh please, looked good even in my normal form. (snap)

The snap is optional.
