The New Adventures of He-Man character designs are fucking sad
- Thread starter Slayven
- Start date
I missed this as a 90s kid, but it's on peacock and i might have to watch. These are the Galactic Guardians, they look like assholes
I'm starting to think this is where Oda got inspiration for the Beast Pirates in One Piece

Battle Kat looks like a Zoid, I like itI thought this was gonna be about the new cg cartoon coming on Netflix and was worried Slayven had become a boomer.
90s? I though you were a zoomer 😉

Right? That hyper stylized Joe Madureira art is a great fit for He-Man.
i will report this post to a mod. i grew up on new adventures and the designs spoke much more to me than motu (which always looked awful to me). he-man in space, fuck yeah! and the toys looked a lot better than the cheap animated show.

Yeah it's a new series separate to the one that just came out this year. Total continuity reboot like She-Ra.
Watch He-Man and the Masters of the Universe | Netflix Official Site
Mighty teen Adam and his heroic squad of misfits discover the legendary power of Grayskull — and their destiny to defend Eternia from sinister Skeletor.

Plot wise? It's a futuristic society that made a time machine and went back and grabbed He-Man and Skeletor to avoid catastrophe. They're fish out of water in a crazy future world.
"Thank you for saving me from a live in slavery, He-Man. Please ride me like a horse as a sign of my eternal gratitude!"
Ooooooh.
Wait, what? Why does he not have like, any of the iconic design elements of every other version? He looks like some off-brand knockoff.
Oh I was wrong, she is a female of his species
New fetish unlocked!
Originally it was supposed to be He-Man's son, and Mattel changed their mind.
oh i see. that means she has 4....elbows....too...Oh I was wrong, she is a female of his species
Also to be honest most of them are barely in the show apart from He-Man, Flipshot (jock guy with the flight pack) and Hydron (the scuba guy) who are both pretty standard character concepts. Oh, and the picture in the OP isn't the original Galactic Guardians, which is why they're not in the intro sequence.
The toys were fairly cool, though. I even had one of the character find of 1990: Butthead!
he-man.fandom.com
Butthead
Butthead is an action figure from the Mattel He-Man toy line and a character from the 1990 animated series The New Adventures of He-Man. He uses his armored head to smash his targets, just like Ram-Man. Butthead (who was referred to only as BH) was not present when Skeletor and He-Man first...

The narration during the intro makes me cringe for some reason. I went back and watched the first and last episodes a month or so back.
Oh I was wrong, she is a female of his species
I was about to say.
"So is she a giant or...ah, I see"
I remember watching this version but have no real fond memories except getting the electronic sword that Christmas. I always remember Skeletor sounded weird too.
I'd like the character designs... for a non-He-Man cartoon. They look like rejected ideas for some Visionaries/Sectaurs/MASK/Sky Commanders-TYPE cartoon that they decided to just make into a new He-Man cartoon. Should've just called it "Light Ryder and the Solar Squadron".
It's like Homer's car.

I've always hated He-Man. The worst damn cartoon ever made. Just looking at those character designed. Ugh.
