"Recipes" to create MOTU Origins characters which haven't been released yet

General
1

Hello ! I’m an old Masters Of The Universe fan from Belgium (I’ve been a fan since the very beginning, in 1983/1984). Right now, I’m into MOTU Origins. This brand has many characters already, but some of those characters are still missing in the collection…

This topic is meant to help or to give ideas to fans and/or customizers who’d like to create some action figure(s) of MOTU character(s) from existing parts of MOTU Origins figures.

You’ll find the name of the character, followed by a “reuse” percentage.

The higher the reuse percentage, the easier (and the cheaper) the figure. Sometimes, new parts will be necessary. Sometimes, all parts are already available…

You probably noticed that almost every MOTU Origin action figure has the following body parts + accessories :

  • Head
  • Torso
  • Pelvis
  • Shoulders and arms
  • Forearms
  • Hands
  • Thighs
  • Legs/Calves/Boot shafts
  • Feet
  • Accessories

For each “recipe”, you’ll find the required parts, if they exist. Some parts will need to be created when necessary, though.

OK. Less talking, more concrete examples.

You’ll find the first recipe below the post…

Cheers,

Toxoid.
