So what does one do with some terrible miniatures - use them for Masters of the Universe obviously...

So here with the first of the bad batch, see the miniature above on the left-hand side converted into Skeletor's standard bearer and mounted onto a dinosaur-like beast. I enjoyed doing the alien plant life on the base.

Cool 8)

Great job! :o
The dinosaur has a really smashing paint job. :-*
-
Cheers Ray Rivers and OSHIROmodels.
I am still not sure what rules I am going to use - may well use Fistful of Lead.
Need to create traits/skills for the characters especially Skeletor and He-Man.
Any suggestions on where I might be able to find a list of their abilities and powers?
I have found this for the revenant lich demon himself but lacks perhaps in detail... https://monster.fandom.com/wiki/Skeletor#:~:text=Sorcery%20%2D%20Skeletor%20is%20an%20accomplished,place%20and%20even%20transmute%20objects.

Herewith, Masters of the Universe - Men-at-arms troops and another Skeletor standard as well as flags. As can be seen, I now was able to find 13 odd of the plastic toy soldier space-men.
More pictures are available here: https://frictionbmcminiatures.blogspot.com/2022/07/golgothas-masters-of-universe-men-at.html
Note the bases - included unusual-looking plant life inspired by the backgrounds of weird-looking plants one would often sees in He-Man.

Note the flag on the right here is a knock-off of the one that used to come with castle Greyskull and the one on the left is based on He-Man's chest symbol - which I also added as little flags to the above Men-at arms troops.

Inspired ideas. Those figures work very well and the banners are great. :-*
I also have a Masters of the Universe project here (http://motu-wargames.blogspot.com/), so feel free to hit me up if you want to discuss sources for suitable minis.
-
Cheers White Knight - this chap on Etsy from Finland has some interesting MOTU Minis see: https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Luova3D?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=1098958312
-
Careful if you order though as his standard size is 40mm (though he does offer to resize).
-
Very creative solutions to use not so great sculpts. Really enjoy all your conversions. They fit well in the He-Man universe.
-
Cheers Peithetairos.
I will be adding some more flags... As I find they make good objective markers and or obvious scenery.
I see a Masters of the Universe Fields of Eternia game is also available and provides a possible source for more miniatures.
See link to rules here:https://archon-studio.com/downloads
and for a preview see:

I am looking for minis that may make for suitable underlings or armies of a sort for He-Man and Skeletor's forces. Any suggestions welcome.
Certainly, RN Estudio has some options for 3d printed main characters.
See for example this excellent Ebay seller who provides a very good service and stocks them together with loads of other loveliness including Forest Dragon 10mm Fantasy minis: https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/mgspainting

The Masters of the Universe live-action movie is tentatively slated for a 2024 release on Netflix. See: https://collider.com/masters-universe-movie-director-comments-tone-filming-window/
I also received the RN E studio Skeletor and He-Man both mounted and on-foot variants from MGS miniatures recently and they are cracking sculpts. The little boy in me is very excited - like being a kid again...

Herewith, a He-Man Masters of the Universe Game turned into a comic.

Looks like you had a really good time!
-
Wow, what an original thread and love how you're approaching this setting with all those eclectic miniatures. This is going to be a very cool project.
-
Thank you DivisMal it has been fun - what was particularly funny is I was watching Masters of the Universe and doing my silly comic while my eight-year-old son was watching a documentary on Napoleon and wanting a Napoleonic Wargame - so who is the child?
Must be a mid-life crisis... lol
Cheers Malebolgia, hopefully, you will enjoy this next "eclectic" addition...
Herewith, an unusual vehicle weapon for Skeletor's forces - I call it Gruts the Fire Belcher. Masters of the Universe always had some crazy vehicles so why not... I imagine it belching some sort of flame thrower-like flames out of its mouth.
This was an opportunity to turn a toy I had almost thrown out a couple of times into something fun. It was also an opportunity to try out some rust effects. I will also be adding some real rust to this, yes you read it correctly real rust, given this idea by Geek Gaming Scenics, see:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiQcWaPqPPk&t=563s&ab_channel=GeekGamingScenics
First up the unpainted toy.

Wow. That toy fits really well. You sure it isn’t a never published, long oop REAL MotU gadget?
You’re getting along really quick, it seems!
-
Cheers DivisMal - "never before published" you say - I feel another comic is in order lol.
The more I look at this weapon of destruction gadget the more it looks like a Frog. That's it - FROG - Fire, Rockets, Objects and Grenades. Gruts the FROG, one of Skeletor's artillery pieces lol.
With the tit-for-tat nature of Masters of the Universe, that means He-Man will now need his own version of an artillery piece. I feel an arms race is starting lol.
I fear I may be losing the plot lol.
Note: For all the laughing in this post just imagine Skeletor's cackle lol.
-
That’s the Spirit! Of course, do the Heroic Warriors need their own version!
If the baf guys get the F.R.O.G., maybe it will be a S.A.L.A.M.A.N.D.E.R. something along the line of
Search And Light Assault Missile Attack Neutron DEath Raider o_o
-
Cheers DivisMal.
Herewith, the start of an Artillery Piece for He-Man's Forces, the "Heroic Warriors" to counter the F.R.O.G.
Made from leftover spray bottle pieces I had from this project here, see:
https://frictionbmcminiatures.blogspot.com/2022/06/golgothas-sci-fi-mech-scratch-built.html
I then added some old toy wheels - so pretty basic. We will have to see how it looks painted up. It will need naming...
I am also going to be adding some big shells to stand next to it - think it has a sort of Great War feel to it... like some sort of Krupp Howitzer...

The cannon already looks pretty cool. It definitely has toy quality. It’s now mostly the colors that will associate it - The Antifrog - with the Heroic Warriors.
He-Man! Tadadadadada….
-
As a PS:
I think you could add some poles / instruments sticking out of the barrel suggesting that it is an energy weapon rather than a projectile cannon. At least for me the science-fantasy aspects were always charming.
-
Cheers DivisMal - hope you like the changes - some more to come... I have got some ideas in the pipeline for the artillery piece and what it fires...
Herewith, the artillery piece painted and I have added a vehicle I found to pull it. Will be adding a tow hook and some touch-ups and the gun still needs some work to make the axles stop moving but otherwise largely done.

Just had a thorough look at your magnificent creation.
It’s certainly got a nice wind raider vibe, which I love. I do think a bit more color could make it even better. Maybe some oragne to stay in the wind raider/man-at-arm scheme?
Or a crazy gimmick — what does it fire? It needs to (theoretically) have been a toy, to give the real MotU feelings. Was it just a cannon you could fire at snake mountain? Or did it fire some crazy stuff, like torpedoes ridable by good warriors or sentient bullets.
Certainly a good creation for you continuing manufacturing of toys that could have been!
-
Cheers DivisMal - I have got some ideas for it. I have since fixed the axle on the artillery piece.
Herewith the start of the RN E Studio He-Man on Battlecat, just trying to match the green at this point.
More details are available here:
https://frictionbmcminiatures.blogspot.com/2022/07/golgothas-masters-of-universe-battlecat.html
What is really nice about the miniature is that it is posed like the original first drawing of Battlecat.

Wahoo! That battlecat looks brilliant. :o
I also read your blog post and agree: it’s nice to see the same pose as the original toy! Now I’m really excited how you will do those stripes.

The only thing I could think about that could be better, would be a removable saddle and mask ;D
Nice WiPs, Golgotha!

Cheers DivisMal evidently they make him without saddle and He-Man.
Well, here they are completed...

He‘s a great addition to your collection! :o
-
Damn! I would give a fair bit for Panthor without the saddle! That's a FANTASTIC big cat sculpt!
-
Cheers FramFramson you can get the cat on its own see here: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294686869296?hash=item449cb4c730:g:jT0AAOSwwTph024M
I can highly recommend this seller fast, efficient and friendly...

Cheers DivisMal he goes very nicely with the He-Man... now need to do the dismounted versions of each...
-
Oooo I like that puddy cat!
Loving this project!
-
Cheers Digits - I am going to have to invest in some more miniatures soon as I am running out of suitable miniatures to paint after the dismounted He-Man and Skeletor are done. Thinking maybe Evil-Lyn and Duncan the Man-at-Arms, these two might also be best thinking usefulness for games. Evil-Lyn has to be my favourite after Skeletor.
I do also like the look of the new battleground faction sets for example:
https://archon-studio.com/shop/masters-of-the-universe/239-wave-1-masters-of-the-universe%E2%84%A2-faction.html
May want to do another game and turn it into a silly comic like the last using the recent additions...

Neat - ty for the tip Golgotha!

Thanks! Found a seller nearby (no customs, an issue these days, I’m afraid). There are some nice sculpts in the range.
-
This is great news, I eagerly look forward to seeing yours DivisMal... Which ones are you thinking of getting and make sure you get then in a scale matching the battleground miniatures as I have seen some sellers making the options of 25, 28 and 32mm.
-
My stuff arrived and I’m ready happy with the sculpts, but not with the material-the problem of all 3d prints I’ve yet encountered: they’re too brittle. The hard plastic Archon uses is definitely superior.
I have Skeletor and a couple of other warriors and will post them when I found time. Current priority is my resurrected Kaiju project and the Motu terrain.

Damn, awesome Skeletor sculpt! And your paintjob is ace too 8)
