OK, the first He-Man figures are finally arriving down here. I've seen He-Man, Skeletor (and their Battle Sound modes), Man-at-Arms, Stratos, Beast-Man and Merman.
Now, I'm looking out for Castle Greyskull. It was the mighty Holy Grail when we were kids and I never had it. I did have the Thundertank, though, and that one was also cool! Anyways, I just read here: http://www.millionaireplayboy.com/toys/motucg.php that they're releasing a second castle with 20 new sounds and different technology. Apparently, the whole foot chip thingy didn't work as reliably as they hoped. My question is, did anyone here witnessed it personally or managed to get their hands on it? Which is more fun the first or second versions?

Noooo...I wouldn't know ANYONE who had the second one :lookaroun

(My little cousin had the first...I have the second...the first figures didn't work all the time...and hardly ANY of the second batch work ANY of the time...(which is why I didn't buy it....I do have the second, and it works fine ...umm what else...mine takes 3 batteries...not 4...Ummm...

(Watch out for Whiplash...I can't WAIT for him!) (Stratos isn't that great...his arms are in a "non playable" position...like...you can't put his arms in a flying mode like in the cartoon) (Granted...mine are all still in the package...which is why it's fun to have a little guy around that's interested in them as well )

I was actually gonna start my last post with a "Hey Brian, do YOU have..." but then I decided to pretend we're all grown ups who don't buy toys for ourselves. :lol:

So it's your expert opinion to get the second one? Cool.
