He-Man’s In Trouble and Only YOU HAVE THE POWER!!!

Masters of the Universe Classics

Ten years ago, every fan of the Masters of the Universe franchise got what they always wanted – a brand new, updated version of the classic series complete with a new cartoon on Cartoon Network, new, updated action figures, a brand new comic book series, and TONS of other merchandise. It was a dream come true for those of us who had waited almost 20 years for any kind of new Masters of the Universe product. Sadly, ever since He-Man returned in 2002, he’s been fighting an uphill battle. First, his new cartoon was canceled. Then, his comic book was canceled. Then, the new line of figures ended. He-Fans had thought all hope was lost.

Fast forward to the 2008 San Deigo Comic-Con. There, in the Mattel display case was a brand new figure that was the PERFECT He-Man. Fans went wild, message boards were overloaded and shut down. It was announced later that weekend that a brand NEW line of figures were being produced, called Masters of the Univerese Classics. Basically, it was brand new figures based on the classic line, but updated with fantastic sculpts by the legendary Four Horsemen. Instead of selling the figures at retail, Mattel offered a subscription service where you could sign up and get a figure every month. We got some of the best figures ever produced. From mainstays like He-Man and Skeletor to awesome beasts like Battle Cat and Panthro, the line was a dream come true for He-Man fans, and to this day, it still is.

Geek Fit

Welcome to Geek Fit, Readers of Doom! No doubt you are curious as to the nature of the posts that are soon to grace the fine pages of Geeks of Doom under the banner of Geek Fit. I’ve decided to provide you an introduction to myself and my vision for this little column in this, my inaugural contribution.

First and foremost, I have always been a “geek.” I grew up like many of you, playing video games, reading comic books, dreaming of having my own super powers, and what it would be like to shake hands with an Aes Sedai, or battle a beholder beside a loveable rogue and a brutish barbarian. My life revolved around the imaginary worlds created by the likes of Stan Lee, Douglas Adams, Neil Gaiman, Gary Gygax, George Lucas, and Shigeru Miyamoto. Unfortunately my passions offered little inspiration for me to leave my couch.

$5 MP3 Album Deal: America’s Greatest Hits
space
Stoogeypedia   |  

America

The mellow soft rock singer/songwriter sounds of the early to mid 1970s arguably found its apex with the folk rock band America, who released hit after hit during that time. A great collection of all those songs, many which hit top ten or even number one on the charts, are complied on the album America’s Greatest Hits , which is on sale right now in MP3 format for only $5.00 on Amazon.

This record might embody the entire “feelgood” vibes of that time, full of many songs that are guilty pleasures and some that are bona fide pop classics: “A Horse With No Name,” the-rolling-down-the-highway “Ventura Highway,” the ballad “I Need You,” the saccharine strains of “Muskrat Love,” the ex-Beatles producer George Martin-helmed bass-heavy “Tin Man,” and the memorable smash “Sister Golden Hair” among others. A great collection for when it’s time to chill, lay back in the hammock, and take a break from musical headbanging and just letting the noggin sway softly and subtly in the breeze.

Browse all 100 albums on sale this month for only $5 each, as well as several albums on sale this week for only $2.99.
