03/25/2004: 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.

Wow, Modulok!
To me, Modulok always belonged to MOTUverse, since I’ve only seen him in comics… Now, I’m off to read te article!

Chestnuts roasted by Papa_Taz @ 03/25/2004 6:51 PM EST

I can only regret my MOTU figures were few. He would have been a worthy opponent for my GI Joes.

Chestnuts roasted by Caleb Nova @ 03/25/2004 6:59 PM EST

You spread a disease Matt. After reading your May 2000 article I rushed out (and by out I mean onto Ebay) to buy one of my own. At 19 years of age, I’d still rather play with my Modulok than visit my family!

Chestnuts roasted by The End Of J @ 03/25/2004 7:00 PM EST

Dammit now I want a Modulok and a Multi-Bot! Again I mean.

Chestnuts roasted by Nemesis @ 03/25/2004 7:15 PM EST

I never had a ton of MOTU toys (3 3/4 G.I. Joes something like a $1 and a smile in the late 80s, then it was all about Ninja Turtles), but my childhood bestfriend did…as well as everyother toy that had a television show or movie.

The point? HE MIGHT STILL HAVE SOME OF THIS STUFF! LET’S STORM HIS HOUSE! THE INTERNET IS COMING FOR YOU ZACH!

modulock is my favorite he-man/she-ra toy, by far. I lost a lot of the peices in a short amount of time, but i always found them later in the weirdest places.

It’s too bad the MOTU revival failed. Can you imagine an updated Modulok sculpted by the Four Horsemen?

man i love modulock,all hail modulock!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chestnuts roasted by meef @ 03/25/2004 7:50 PM EST

modulok and multi bot rule!

Chestnuts roasted by sdtha @ 03/25/2004 8:24 PM EST

You guys are lucky. We only got (and get) the basic action figures down here, and nothing like this fellow. I completely do not remember him, which is rather surprising, since my sisters and I were all huge She-Ra fans and had most of the She-Ra dolls we could get our hands on.

Chestnuts roasted by starwenn @ 03/25/2004 8:44 PM EST

i had modulok and he ruled. i think i tried to eat his tail once though

I had a feeling your fav toy was modulok:)

Chestnuts roasted by Scourge @ 03/25/2004 9:30 PM EST

$50 from birthday + discount toy place = a couple dozen Modulok Figures. [That is right, I have tons in a box in my attic.]

Chestnuts roasted by Lincoln @ 03/25/2004 9:37 PM EST

Wow, I need one now. Those pictures of Modulok in various bodily contortions were most fascinating and made my own fingers itch. My solution? I grabbed the only thing in my dorm that beared some resemblance: my molecular model kit. It’s colourful, plastic-y, and makes a snapping/popping sound when I put pieces together.

Screw digital camera. I’m getting meself a Modulok.

Chestnuts roasted by Sophia @ 03/25/2004 11:10 PM EST

the audio at the begining of the commercial made my ears bleed.. after I cleaned that up I stood in awe as He-Man didn’t do SHIT to Modulok just like Matt said.. I didn’t believe it when I read it, it was something I needed to see for myself. It has shaken the foundation of my existence

Chestnuts roasted by HeWhosNoLongerHears @ 03/25/2004 11:11 PM EST

I had a ton of MOTU figures but I never owned Modulok. Thanks Matt for showing me what I missed out on.

Chestnuts roasted by Meatwad @ 03/25/2004 11:51 PM EST

Dammmmmn g.

I need my girlfrend to do the positions of modulok. Then I will be the most happy camper!!

I found out that Kopper Popper places in various malls across America sell chocolate covered twinkies. For anyone that wants a chocodile, you can still get them easily.

Chestnuts roasted by mindsuckr @ 03/26/2004 1:04 AM EST

Modulok rocked in the cartoons! Evil and smart and a cool voice! BUT, how can you diss the Cloud Car Pilot?! Are you kidding?! The figure that had a hand molded just right for holding a tasty adult beverage? I always had him be the drunk of the group with the other Star Wars figs. He was a pilot and an alcoholic, it was gold! Thank Christ they’re finally releasing a new CCP later this year!!!!

Chestnuts roasted by faroniousd @ 03/26/2004 1:12 AM EST

About your "emglulfnabetz" word that you’ve got in the title bar today…I’m probably the only one who knows the origin of that word. It appeared in a comic book ad for Reeses’ Pieces in the mid-80’s. Yes, "Jurisprudence" was in it.

Chestnuts roasted by Mars @ 03/26/2004 2:01 AM EST

heh heh. i still have my Modulok. i wanna play with him after readin this article. and jeez the sound on that commercial download! MY EARS!!!

Chestnuts roasted by demonlord6696 @ 03/26/2004 2:08 AM EST

Me again!
I must say that I liked the original article a bit better, mostly because that’s where I first read about Matt’s "praying methods"… As for Modulok himself, I finally got him four years ago… Now if I only had a Multibot…

Chestnuts roasted by Papa_Taz @ 03/26/2004 2:45 AM EST

Hmmm, the Cobra Saga takes a new twist 2 weeks after Part IV. All the characters turned into Modulok pieces.

Chestnuts roasted by TOP1214 @ 03/26/2004 2:56 AM EST

Modulok ruled!

I remember my 2nd grade teacher Ms. Connors taking that away from me… and never giving it back. So now I say, "GIVE IT BACK NOW BITCH"

Chestnuts roasted by garbage pail kid @ 03/26/2004 5:25 AM EST

Damn right I remember him! Not to mention the mish-mash cronie-robot of his.. (I’m not sure if they were actually friends but it sounded cool)

Nice combos there Matt.. too bad u don’t have him in your Chia comic.. or do you?

Chestnuts roasted by Cyanyde @ 03/26/2004 8:43 AM EST

I got Modulok back when I used to live in the UK and I can remember playing with him for the entire plane ride to the States. That’s a long-ass flight, which should tell you something about how damn awesome that toy was.

I didn’t remember Multi-Bot until I read this… too bad I never saw him in the stores.

Chestnuts roasted by blizack @ 03/26/2004 9:14 AM EST

i still have my Modulok w/ all the pieces. hes in my "bucket-o-he-man toys" and will remain there for eternity.

Chestnuts roasted by mikey @ 03/26/2004 10:00 AM EST

I had modulok, but I can’t remember ever even hearing about multi-bot. Did he come out really late in the series? Like around the time of the Snake men? If so I had moved on to Transformers and Nintendo by then.

Chestnuts roasted by Beerstalker @ 03/26/2004 10:16 AM EST

a good friend of mine had a Modulok figure. He was always in my Transformers vs. He-Man vs. GI-Joe vs. Ninja Turtles battles, but he would always die first. He always died first because he was the perfect little skittering scout, and when Starscream would spot him, he would transform into a jet and blow him to pieces. How many toys do you know that can actually get blown to pieces?

The artcle is great, as usual, Matt. I especially love the Modulok snake thingy you made. In hindsight, I should have had him piece back together after being blown apart.

Chestnuts roasted by Stilewalker @ 03/26/2004 11:03 AM EST

Galidor action figures are just like modulock. They didn’t take though, so you can still find them for a dollar or two.

Chestnuts roasted by ANdrew @ 03/26/2004 11:37 AM EST

I still have my Roboto. But ol’ Moddy was one of the coolest MOTU figures I never had. Actually, MOTU sounds like a pagan god of some type. A stone idol with huge arms and chest, tiny waist, and beefy legs. "I AM MOTU! BRING ME YOUR SACRIFICIAL BARBIES NOW!! OR FACE MY ILL-PROPORTIONED WRATH!!!"

Chestnuts roasted by kingklash @ 03/26/2004 12:45 PM EST

I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed that fat dick under Modulok’s chin in the pic where Modulok is coming out of that tube. If I were him, I wouldn’t be so suprised that I crawled through a tube, as much as I’d be mad that someone put my head between my legs.

Then again, I’m kinda jealous of him.

Chestnuts roasted by Hypnotix @ 03/26/2004 12:51 PM EST

Man, I remember I used to have Modulok! Though I think I was 5 at the time and to stupid to create anything cool with him. And is it just me or does it sound like Satan himself chanting "Modulok!" in that tv commercial?? Modulok!! Modulok!! MOOODDDULOOK!!

Chestnuts roasted by Wompdevil @ 03/26/2004 12:58 PM EST

Wow, Modulok. He was like the Holy Grail of MOTU figures to me. In fact, Modulock was the only way my parents could convince me to go through with the dental surgery I had to have as a kid. If I did it, I got Modulok, ok. Letting people slice open my mouth seemed like a fair trade. I even distinctly remember halucinating little modulok heads in an infinite line all converging on a centerpoint in front of my eyes as they put me under with the gas mask. At that moment, the deal was starting to feel a lot less fair. Anyway, got my modulok, played with him for nearly 4 days before I lost interest… Stupid ADD.

Chestnuts roasted by Pagz @ 03/26/2004 12:58 PM EST

Had both Modulok and Multi-Bot back when I was a kid. Loved ‘em to death.. till I lost one piece.. than another.. and another..
Now my Modulok and Multi-Bot body part count = 0.

I would’ve loved a Modulok…

Oh well. I’ve still got a few of the Crash Dummies figures lying around, and a C-3PO / Battle Droid pair from Episode II. They’ve got interchangeable parts too.

Interchangeable parts always make a toy spiffier.

I watched most of the MOTU shows, but never got into the toys. Except Modulok! I had to own him. Though it made me uncomfortable when I found out the only time I could catch him in action was on She-ra. Not that that stopped me from watching.

Chestnuts roasted by Seth Christenfeld @ 03/27/2004 1:26 AM EST

The message I am about to communicate has nothing to do with this post, but it IS important. Or at least it is to me.

It is about the dangers of drugs. It is a story that I was a part of. Be forewarned, this story is emotionally intense.

It all started two days ago when two friends of mine had been talking and taking amphetamines (aka Speed) for 17 hours straight.

Later I came in along with another friend and this one girl and we had shrooms and speed. We went out to a forest area, tripping out of our minds. The girl was freeaking out, two of my friends were acting like dumbasses, another one of them (the one that’s most significant in this story and makes an awesome choice), and I was solid gone (although I had enough sense to realize what was happening, which never happened before). She eventually ran off on her own.

When we got back to our house (where my buddy and I live), people we knew, including two people whom we had also taken drugs with, started coming over and such. One of my friends decided to call the girl’s house but she wasn’t there, which scared us and so a group went looking for her. We eventually realised that she probably went to someone’s house to rest as she was coming down of the panic attack just before she took off.

We were unable to converse with each other, period, because our minds were not entirely straight. Furthermore, my friend, who had not slept for the past two days while doing drugs, was beginning to lose weight, hydration, conciousness, and sanity.

It was this particualr friend who really came through in the end,
because eventually it got so intense that it got to the point in which my friend decided that this was it. He took his entire stash of drugs and flushed them down the toilet, and finally made it clear that he was off the drugs and wants everyone to hold him accountable. He had also made it clear that he hoped others would go forth with this idea and do the same. Everyone there who had been doing drugs, decided to follow my friend in his ways.

I will tell you that I started out with weed, but I eventually got tired of it and moved on to harder drugs. It all lead up to this night in which I, as well as many other friends, had an epiphany.

I’m not here to tell all of you readers what to do, or what you should do, because I know you’re all smart enough to decide for yourself. I’m just bringing you a true story that I saw with my own two eyes.

Chestnuts roasted by Nate @ 03/27/2004 9:33 AM EST

Further note:
When I said that we weren’t able to converse with each other at all, I did exaggerate. We were able to converse somewhat, just not very clearly.

Chestnuts roasted by Nate @ 03/27/2004 9:35 AM EST

I should also add that the final culmination of the event took place just last night, and I’ve been pretty shook up and haven’t slept since, so some of the details of my story (such as time), may not make any sense. But let me assure you, it’s still a true story.

Chestnuts roasted by Nate @ 03/27/2004 9:44 AM EST

So my question is, what happened to the girl? you ever find her?

Chestnuts roasted by Spiffy McKracken @ 03/27/2004 1:28 PM EST

Spiffy: We don’t know yet.

Chestnuts roasted by Nate @ 03/27/2004 1:45 PM EST

Puttin’ in a good word for you and your buds with the spirits, man. Just another reason why I don’t use. Been a witness to that terrible moment when those frightning words were said, "Do you know what you did last night?" Remembering what you did, but not knowing why might be worse. This may not sound lke much of a bright side, but, this is a Quantum Universe, There are much, much harsher ways to learn your lesson. Trust me on that one, my sister died once already, she had to clean herself up after that. Now, over twenty years later, she has a good husband, two sons, and is in Iraq routing supply requests to the proper people and making sure every one gets what they need. She’s never been one to let something like minor brain damage slow her down. Give strength to your friends, they’re as much your family as your blood relations, and they’ll share theirs with you. And you always have this merry band of knuckleheads to lift your spirits. Well, enough of that, back to business. What do we want? Chia! When do we want it? Don’t rush yourself on our account!

Chestnuts roasted by Dreamschizm @ 03/27/2004 4:14 PM EST

Kingklash: That’s awesome to hear, bro. My friend seriously believes he would’ve died or at least gone to the hospital that night if he hadn’t done what he did because he claims he would’ve just kept on popping speed for as long as he could on into the next day if he hadn’t.

I’m glad to hear about your sister and what she’s doing. It’s great to know that there’s life after drugs.

And about the girl, I should mention that her ex-bf, who was there that night, may very well know if she’s alright. He already had a good idea of where she might be. We just haven’t talked to him yet.

Chestnuts roasted by MightyStalfos @ 03/27/2004 10:12 PM EST

Ahh… Nice nod including Multi-Bot in the article.
I remember that I used to have that one (in fact, I’m positive that I still have one of his heads somewhere) while Modulok’s existance had passed me by without notice.
Imagine my bewilderment when I saw him at a schoolmate’s home ! While a robot that could re-assemble in a multitude of ways seemed logical to me, an organical being peforming the same feat puzzled me to no end. How would he do this ? How ? Really, HOW ?!

Chestnuts roasted by Creature SH @ 03/27/2004 10:49 PM EST

Wow Nate, you’re right– Drugs are bad. Now, back to Modulok… I heard this story where Modulok and Nate came out fighting, and Modulok ended up getting his removable penis bitten off by Nate after Nate’s friend who was a girl finally came back.

Sheesh! What a joykill!

Hey, does anyone want to see an article about Modulok on Speed? Maybe Nate and Kingklash can be a part of it with some kinda stupid message at the end– and Nancy Reagan can be there too telling you to say no to drugs.

Drugs aren’t bad. Its just that people use them stupidly.

Wow. Just… wow.

Um, anyway, back to toys that you can pull off all their limbs and reattach them, creating a horrific mutant thing. (Well, you can do this with most toys but the gimmick with the one’s we’re talking about is that you’re *supposed* to.) I seem to recall a very short lived *PLUSH* variation on this theme. All the characters were cute animals and you could merrily rip their limbs off and stick them (with Velcro) on each other’s bodies. Anybody remember what they were called or -better yet- know of any information online about them?

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!

Chestnuts roasted by E-dub @ 05/25/2004 5:59 PM EDT

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.

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…

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!
