New Article: The Ultimate Modulok Tribute!

A rewrite of a rewrite of a rewrite, here is my final tribute to Modulok, the Masters of the Universe/Princess of Power villain with twenty-two interchangeable parts, including two heads, six legs, six arms and a couple of tails. Loved this thing more than you could ever imagine. Feature includes a look at the toy, the character, the commercial, the instruction manual and the box. A whole lotta Modulok, Modulok, Modulok. Easily one of my top ten favorite toys throughout childhood, this was the ultimate He-Man figure. or was it She-Ra? Mosdoasodosdodulok.

Really simple, Sister was on something bad, went through a windshield at high speed, medi-vacced to OKC, died, found out being dead in your senior year sucks, came back, telescoped a three-year recovery into two months, cleaned up, crash-coursed her GED, the rest you know, and she can kick your ass and laugh at you every second she does it, TROLDD. What’s it like to be you?

Crap. Just realized I’m feeding the TROL. Apologies all around. Goes to show, if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the oven. People start flamewars, people can stop them.

I would like a review of The Snake Men character Snake Face.I heard that the figure form of Snake Face is ULTRA!!! rare.

Did anyone else think of hell when they saw Mattel’s pic of some of the different variations of Modulok? There’s just something about most of those creatures that makes them seem like they crawled right out of Satan’s domain.

Anyone who saw one of those things coming towards them would probably go insane immediately.
Seriously, one look at any one of them should be enough to make He-man spend the next 6 months of his life shitting himself and drooling heavily.

I also like Modulok and have some other information on him that might interest.
He was in fact a baddie in He-Man.
Not sure what the episode is called but he is known as Man-At-Arms arch rival and is also a crappy inventor like Man-At-Arms.

Holy cow,
Modulok was the man!!
Even his gun could plit in two.
I had two of these bad asses and a multi-bot, i was a MOTU badass back in the day.

AND my mum gave it all away….

Excellent article. I remember getting Modulok for Christmas in 1986. Unlike the rest of the action figs I recieved, he came in a box. It was so cool. I remember that was the last MOTU Christmas of my life, that is untill 2001. I also recieved Extendar and Spikor that year. It was certainly a cool experience.

And though I lost Modulok in a move during my childhood, I recently reclaimed him from a dependable website.

I would love to see an article about the Slime Pit!

This site FREAKIN’ ROCKS!!! I am an all time 80′s kid….still have most of my Masters of the Universe collection, some of my Transformers and most of my Atari games with console, working and in tact. Kudos to your web site, you bring back more memories than I thought I had. Much props on the Ultimate Modulok tribute too….he was sooo underated, I still have him! Peace!

Good god man, you just threw me into a ten minute reminiscing trance. Modulok’s sheer awesomeness was only outmatched by MossMan’s strangely off-putting, but oddly interesting stench/scent.

ps I almost lost an eye once playing with Thunder Punch He-Man.

Chestnuts roasted by e0n @ 06/10/2004 2:09 AM

HOOOLY CRAP! I forgot that I had this character until I saw your site. I had nearly the entire MOTU set including castle grayskull, battlecat, etc. I have tried to rehash my memories of what characters I had against others who collected…I praise you for jogging my memory wit hyour modulok article…
Sadly, all of my MOTU figures were sold at a yard sale when I was 12. God I wish I could have those back now =(
anyways nice article and AWESOME F"N SITE!!!!!

GREAT TRIBUTE TO MODULOK!! I loved that toy too.

I remember way back when, some kid standing next to me in the action figure aisle at KB Toys said "Look Dad! It’s Modulok!!" And his father kept correcting him WRONGLY, saying "no son, it’s "moe-DOO-lock"

and all i could do was shake my 8-yr-old head…

anyway, terrific page, I’m passing it on…

Nice :)

Well, you’re not the only one Modulok fan in the world: my brother also is. In fact, in the 80′s, Modulok was the only He-Man figure he owned, as his favorite. As for me, I owned my favorite as well, Stinkor, along with the awsome Panthor. We still own them today, absolutely complete and in almost perfect condition (I say “almost”, because Stinkor’s leg elastic is sadly drying). Modulok and Stinkor forever!

Omg this has to be one of your funniest articles ever! I was cracking up reading your commentary about the “lunges” and “denting the wall with your skull”. So funny and such a great tribute to this nearly forgotten character.

It is so nice to see Modulok get the recognition he deserves.
