Kind of too bad they didn’t just make an Ecto-1 for the line of figures they already sold instead of making you buy more figures at a different scale.

Note: There is some conflicting information about Strong-Or and Plundor. The list posted in the booth has them listed as I have them above. The slides from presentation indicated that Plundor was the Club Eternia figure, while Strong-Or was in the Club Filmation sub. I’m inclined to believe the later, though, in reality they really should have both been in the filmation sub.

Goatman will be the 2014 Traveling Convetion Exclusive. Initially, I thought Goatman was the one-shot henchman of Skeletor from the first episode of The New Adventures of He-Man, but as it turned out, his name was Andros. Goatman was a one-shot henchman from a Golden book called The Secret of the Dragon’s Egg.
