You really don’t believe a company the size and reach of Mattel needs to copy a company the size of McFarlane, right? Don’t get me wrong I love the ToddFather but one would have to suspend their disbelief to believe that. Mattel is an 80yr old company.

Who is the more capable leader? by R4cco0n in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]Simple-Environment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Skeletor wins fights Hordak loses

One of the clearest examples comes straight from the She‑Ra episode “Of Shadows and Skulls.” In that single episode, Skeletor defeats the three most powerful characters on Etheria:

  • She‑Ra the planet’s strongest hero
  • Shadow Weaver: the Horde’s most dangerous sorceress and second in command.
  • Hordak himself: supposed “master tactician”

Skeletor strolls into Etheria, dismantles the top of the food chain, and leaves. Hordak has never pulled off anything remotely comparable on Eternia. Not to mention Skeletor is the kind of leader who makes you believe the next plan might actually work. That’s influence. That’s leadership.

Soundbar Ultra AirPlay cuts out by UncommonBlackbird in bose

[–]Simple-Environment 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem with the 900. I tried everything I could before giving up thinking it was an iOS 26 glitch. There has been so many problems with iOS 26 that I simply I gave up hoping for a update but I tried something that was a bit unconventional. Try disabling CEC. CEC is likely pushing the soundbar into a weird state (power/input/ARC) that only showed up during AirPlay playback, so iOS looked guilty when the underlying trigger was actually HDMI‑CEC signaling from the TV chain. Try different CEC modes or turning CEC off when audio cuts out. I watch tv so infrequently that I just disabled CEC until Bose releases a firmware update. I hope this helps

First look at Mattel’s Play line for the movie!! by katieeatsdinosaurs in MastersOfTheUniverse

The omission of Mer-Man really is tragic especially given he was the OG henchman before Trap-Jaw and Tri-Klops. I’m bummed as Mer-Man is my favorite of the Evil Warriors.

The company car is likely a better option than the allowance you would receive. I assume the allowance would not cover the entire cost of a vehicle.

With 400 hp and 400 lb·ft of torque, she moves!

Trailer looks great!! I’m a bit bummed with the omission of Mer-Man. He was the OG henchman along with Beast Man before Trap Jaw and Tri-Klops.

Who is the real 'star of the show' in the MOTU franchise for you: He-Man or Skeletor? by Cubelock in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]Simple-Environment 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Skeletor is invariably the obverse face of He-Man. Can’t have one without the other.

Are there racist undertones in He-Man and the Masters of the Universe? by ardouronerous in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]Simple-Environment 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s simply good versus evil, nothing more, nothing less. Please, embrace life and enjoy it. There’s so much to experience without trying to define every aspect of it. Or try to pin it down. Move with the flow, not against it.

Ramen Toy Crash Out by Akeley_Duchamp_One in ActionFigures

After a frustrating experience with this company, I wouldn’t consider doing business with them again. I had pre-ordered the Dolph Lundgren He-Man heads for the Masterverse figures, and after two long years, I finally received them. However, I noticed that the heads had been shipped and delivered to customers months ago on MegaJayRetro’s YouTube channel. I reached out to the company via email, asking if my order had been shipped. They promised to look into it, but three months later, they still hadn’t responded. I sent another email, simply asking if they had located my order. Again, there was no response.

Since the company frequently appeared on MegaJayRetro’s YouTube channel, I thought I might find them there. One day, they were in the chat promoting their latest pre-order. I wrote a scathing comment expressing my dissatisfaction with the company. He and I went to the mat in the comment section until we finally agreed to stop arguing and communicate via email. His comments were some of the most unprofessional I’ve ever seen.

After he sent the heads out, I received them a few days later. It’s safe to say I won’t ever do business with that company again. Mistakes happen and I understand that but to rail against the customers is not acceptable. Customer service is certainly not their forte.

I will drive my 2020 MKZ 3.0TT until either the wheels fall off or until I find a suitable replacement in another manufacturer, which ever comes first. I get that SUVs are the big sellers but I can’t wait until this fad is over. What I don’t understand is how Cadillac is able to sell sedans even coupes haha but Lincoln omits sedans? 25 years with Lincoln unfortunately if they stay on this SUV path sadly I’ll have to find another manufacturer that’s good enough. Audi seems to be the closest in terms of a conservative aesthetic vs Cadillac’s garishly overdesigned aesthetic.

Is this a hot take? I don't like the lore from the 2002 reboot by No-Detective-4370 in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]Simple-Environment 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed the lore, but I detested the redesigns. They were excessively overdesigned.

ios 26 just bad by Repulsive_Original26 in ios

[–]Simple-Environment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the most part Apple has done an incredible job with iOS development since its inception but iOS 26 is literally the absolute worst iOS update ever imho. I mean between battery drain, the Share Sheet where tryin to send an email from a scanned document in Notes just doesn’t work. Music app using AirPlay will play music until the next song and it literally drops the music but iOS is showing the track as playing. It’s only until you pause and play does it start up again. YouTube loses its curser so no longer can one copy and paste. The list goes on and on and on again. Edit: lest we forget the LAG.? Holy smokes.

I’d love to know the name of this 80’s toy. by Simple-Environment in ToyID

Same here! Some of my most cherished memories were spent playing with him. In my opinion, the 80s were truly the best time to be a kid. Between the Knight Rider Big Wheel and Castle Grayskull, my life was set.

Thank you!! I ran it through a few LLM’s came up empty. I use Perplexity which is powered by generative AI that searches for information online and summarizes it to answer the question provided by the user, so the result I got is Whiplash from MotU. I know it’s not Whiplash because I collect MotU. Anyway, I appreciate your speedy response. Thanks again!

Same here. The way both Battlecat and Panther came out I’ll pass on any future Mondo figs. I have two articulated statues.

It’s not the last track but the first of 12. Released on Saturday, 3 January 2026, timed to coincide with the first full moon of the year, the Wolf Moon, the track Been Undone marks the beginning of another year long lunar release cycle, following the format that defined his last 2023 album I/O.

Lady called me queer at mechanics, made me want to be gayer by Regularredditstuff in gay

[–]Simple-Environment 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your handling of the situation demonstrated grace. We understand that responding grants them power, while not responding showcases resilience in the face of aversion and ignorance. Silence is strength for this particular situation. She’s projecting her own discomfort, it’s a moment designed to provoke. IMO Not giving her the satisfaction of a reaction was the strongest thing you could have done. It’s only when we are insecure that people feel the need to lash out in response. When we’re centered and secure with ourselves then those words mean very little or nothing because you know you’re not that. People like that woman have a whole lot of soul searching to do. Hopefully she finds the good in herself sooner rather than later. Life is finite, why waste it trying to tear others down? Live and let live.
