I can't express how much it means to me that all of you that have viewed and commented on this one video. Before my dad died, he wanted to know how "our UA-cam status" was on this video. I told him that every child from the 80's is thankful that you are a historian of our childhood. Thanks again and I'm hoping that I can soon upload more videos in 2016. Take care and good journeys! Lol :)
Would you mind if I used some footage from this video on my video I'm planning to make? I own the very playsets that are shown in your video and would like to make a video showing them. I would give you credit and link this video. Please let me know.
I do not sadly, I do have other nostalgic videos from places in the midwest like theme parks and such but I have not had the time to upload them all. I need to get a better computer to transfer videos to youtube. I will however, be at retrocon in the fall this year and they always have awesome throwback toys that I haven't seen in ages. I will post a video on youtube of retrocon this year by October. Thank you for watching and I am sorry there isn't much more than this video to share right now. Have a great week!
This is amazing! I don't think there has a been a toy line since that has had hit such heights as Masters of the Universe, so glad you were able to share this with other fans, we appreciate it!
The people who have recorded stuff like this, kept it, preserved it, and uploaded it for like minded people to enjoy are the true heroes of this world, Thank You So Much For This!!
Thank you, that comment really means a lot! Even though it is a part of my family's home videos, it was recorded for the world to see. Unbeknownst to us at the time, that would be eventually the purpose for this video, as a part of toy history. We were honored to be a part of such a radical and gnarly experience and to share this for kids of all ages. Thank you for watching!
@VMIFerrari First of all, let me thank you for the comment! My dad recorded everything everywhere we went and my brother and sister and I were the typical 80's kids, doing all things which would now be considered retro lol I think, according to a representative who contacted me from Mattel, told me that we did in fact have the only known video to have surfaced from the mall tours. They did show this at other malls, not for certain where or when but if you check in the comments, some remember this rad display rolling into their mall. :) I have been told that my father and I are the keepers of the nerd Holy Grail! Lol We are glad and proud that we were able to touch the nostalgic hearts of those who watched this video, for us, the feeling on this end, is limitless. Thank you :)
5 year old me is sh!tting his pants right now.....that is one of the coolest concepts to sell toys I've ever seen! This is why the 80s rocked and why toys were so much more fun and imaginative back then.
I'm trying to comprehend how you could possibly disagree with my comment when I'm FROM the 80s???? What is there to disagree about? I made no comments about "this generation". If you truly think 80s kids lacked creativity you are sincerely and sorely mistaken. You really think 80s kids didn't play with their action figures outside, playstation didn't even exist yet and NES was in its infancy. Your comment literally describes the lives of most 80's and 90's kids.
How nice to see this vintage movie, I was born in 1978, I lived the legendary 80s playing with these toys that accompanied my childhood and that I am still collecting with great enthusiasm.
You just don't see this level of care taken with toy products now. This was definitely a time when people took pride in what they created and also understood what kids wanted. Amazing video that really captures a bygone age. Ahh to be a kid in the 80s again ! Thanks for sharing.
This would be your first stop? Not judging but, if you have a time machine, prevent some things like, the birth of Hitler or the death of John Lennon...then head to this mall and have your mind blown! Thank you for the comment, made me chuckle, and thank you for watching!
Awesome footage. Thank you for sharing. I remember meeting He-Man and Skeletor back in ‘84 or ‘85 at a Toys R Us in La Mesa, CA. My dad was working, but my mom made sure to take me to meet my childhood friends.
Es gibt und gab niemals eine geilere und genialere Spielfigurenserie.1986 war sowieso das erfolgreichste Jahr.Dieses Video aus der Zeit ist genial.Die ganze Show,mit Hologrammen und der Stimme.Einfach phänomenal!Masters rules forever! 80`s rules forever!!
Thank you for watching! This was one of those times that I can remember so vividly from my youth of actually walking in and seeing this amazing show, and even better to get to see it whenever I wanted to because we had it on videotape. Short story: I can even remember rewatching this in our living room with my older sister and I would reenact as Skeletor and she as He-Man and then getting in trouble by my parents for picking up a small ottoman that we had and trying to throw it like it was the rock that Skeletor threw towards He-Man! Haha, again thank you for watching and for the comment!
This is a real treat for MOTU fans...Love the diorama etc and imagine meeting Hordak as a kid...I'd probably ask "Can I join The Evil Horde Hordak" lol
And this is what makes 80's toylines the best ever. Thank you so much for sharing this and God bless your dad for recording and preserving this video. That was awesome!
I saw this video years ago and started to create my own MOTU display. I was motivated to make a GI JOE display ( GI JOE WORLD video on youtube of the video by my friend and producerJjimmyjim) that took over 1 year to put together and now ready to show my MOTU diorama. THis video inspired me. Thats why the 80's toys will rule for all generations to come. Thank you sammmyb7883 for putting a smile on a MOTU fan.
Wow Mario Porco! I am really touched by that! It’s an awesome feeling to know you can motivate others in achieving success or following dreams or goals. Thank you for watching the video and thank you for your very moving comment. I appreciate it! I look forward to seeing your creations and hopefully your creation will inspire someone new! Stay talented my friend!
I was just talking about this display, when it was at the KOP mall down my way. You have put a light back into my hart. In addition I can show my wife what I was talking about. Thank You
Just discovered today from a post in the "He-Man and the Masters of the Universe Fans" group on Facebook. So good! Really takes me back. Thanks for sharing!
If my dad kept recording, you would have seen my mom changing my diaper because I did, in fact...shit myself. Haha, agreed, Mattel was the prime leader in marketing, much like nintendo in the late 80's/ early 90's. Thanks for watching!
I appreciate that and thank you for your kind words. Miss the guy a lot but he left me with memories like this that I can treasure for a lifetime. He was a great father but a better friend. Thanks for watching!
Awesome video I was born in 1979 and remember getting all these Masters of the Universe toys for my birthdays and Christmas, Snake mountain and Castle Greyskull... man I wish I had them all back.
This had to be the greatest advertising for any toy line in any era. I've never seen anything like this and sadly, probably never will. Thank you for watching!
Not only years after your father recorded this and kept it preserved is it being enjoyed but years after it was uploaded as well. I just got randomly recommended it today and appreciate the opportunity to get to see it.
Would have loved this as a kid. I was all into He-Man. Never got to see any live performers or anything like this though. It's awesome to see how they had this stuff going on back then.
Thank you for watching, my dad recorded this and I know it’s not the best camera work but he did his best to keep a heavy camera on his shoulder, trying to capture what he could in low light. He has since passed but if he were still alive, his words to you would probably had been,”rad! Thanks for watching bud!”.
the true childhood of our time man this was so awesome, heman was one of my favorites and i never get tired when he bust out the sword and says his powerful line,
That was amazing! It reminds me of a the Storybook Boat Ride from Disneyland, with all the miniature kingdoms and castles, only, you know, of course, with HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
Thank you so much for uploading and to your dad for saving this!. I remember going to this exact same thing at a mall in Las Vegas as a kid with one of my best friends. The memory stuck with me, but I have never seen mention of it online anywhere, so I was actually beginning to doubt my childhood memory.
Wow! This looked totally awesome. Now we know why kids of that generation don't want to grow up and still buy toys today. I'm not complaining mind you.
It was cool they let him record it yes, but remember, back then there was no internet to post the footage on for spoilers. I would love if MattyCollector or Mattel did something like this. Hell, I'd like it if they brought the figures back IN STORES rather than just online.
Thank you, I really appreciate your sympathy. He was a great Dad and always did fun stuff like this for my brother, sister and I. I remember him telling me when we watched this again when I was 6 or 7 that he didn't have the heart to record over it because no one else had a video camera that day. That maybe we will have the last video evidence of this. Didn't understand back then but you are correct that he had insight. Thank you for watching!
Automatic thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!!! Born in 1981! Was a big He-Man fan! Dad bought me the snake dude, yellow spinning guy, hammer head, battle cat, blue He-Man, and Hordak! Still got Castle Greyskull sitting in Moms house! Saw Lundgren movie in theaters, and the She-Ra/He-Man team up movie at the theater! We had the ultimate childhood sadly missed! I still own every vhs tape I ever had to this day.
My fellow MOTU nerd! haha, I am glad that you enjoyed this video and this was put up on UA-cam for people just like you and me, fans of this toy mecca universe! Thanks for watching!
This is awesome. I've had it saved forever, and it's great to watch every once in a while, a happy trip back to Eternia and simpler times. my daughter thinks it's pretty amazing too, as she's a fan of MOTU and PoP like we were as kiddos. Thank you for sharing!
Truly a family fun experience yesterday to what is Comic Con today. I recently reviewed the Minicomic collection and I may plan to crowd fund the Eternia playset (because I never bought the original in '86). My father passed away years ago but he was never a fan. Most of my collecting went towards the 200X figures and statues.My original toys were sold long ago. I wonder if the parents of that time who were skeptical or dismissive really appreciate MOTU today and if children in 2022 like these toys. I have only seen one or two collect these at Target recently.
Thanks for watching, my dad wasn’t a fan either but he understood what it meant to me to go and see it and he had the foresight to record it. This is in an age before people recorded everything on the regular so I was grateful for him to know how much I would appreciate wanting to watch it over and over again. To him, he could see what I saw in MOTU as he would have seen Howdy Doody or Superman in his time. He got it and never tried to show any unappreciative attitude towards it. He and I used to watch Ren and Stimpy and Beavis and Butthead together in my teenage years, he was a cool guy and I miss him tremendously! I try to do the same for my daughter whenever she watches Bluey or Barbie or whatever is popular to her! Being a parent means showing them the world but also taking the time for you to understand and see their world too. Take care!
Thanks for watching! As far as I know, this is the only video of this event. I hope someone else has another video of this, it would be interesting to see it from another mall! Thanks for watching!
I have the actual play sets that were used during this mall tour. I want to make a video about them and hoped to use some of this footage. Wanted to ask your permission. I'd give credit. Please let me know. Thanks
Video makes me miss my dad so much, my dad never did took videos of us nor took us to events. But he sure did bought us all the toys we wanted such as he-man
Thanks for watching! We didn't have much of the He-Man toys, just a few. But we had plenty of super hero toys and ghostbusters toys, G.I. Joe and Thundercats! Then Nintendo came around and that was all I wanted was games and nintendo toys! Take care!
sammyb7883 imagine that from both ends of the world and our parents and toys did made us had the same experience. Thumbs up to ur dad, these made me teary eyed.
Where I lived we had a similar event but on a much smaller scale. He-Man and Skeletor made a promotional appearance at "The Hobby Shop" where they brought out toys and playsets like Castle GreySkull and Snake Mountain. I bought two figures at this event Buzzoff I believe and another but I don't remember the other, maybe Zodac. All the kids were given orange cardboard Zodac pistals and I "Shot" He Man, I love the villains. The costumes were made of rubber and both He Man and Skeletor looked their figures...literally. 1984 was a good year!
hello! man thank you for share this beautifull video, in my country i never see something like this... i was a child in the 80's and now im collecting the masters of the universe toyline again
Awesome! Thank You for watching! Which part of the world are you from? I like you, am a child of the 80's as you can see in the video!! After 7 years of this video being up on UA-cam, it is always nice to see new comments from fans just like you! Thanks again for watching!
thank you for answer , im from Uruguay ( a little country in south america), your video is very special and i love it, full of memories from your family time and motu toys
I love that. I love that our little home video has reached not only people in my country but to other beautiful countries around the world as well. It was a fantastic time in my youth and a very special moment captured on video indeed. Thank you for your wonderful words and I appreciate you taking the time to watch and for the comments! I posted this video for fans just like you and me! Take care!
I can't believe how quickly the Masters of the Universe line faded after its initial run of, what, three or four years? Quite amazing how fast the public consciousness changes. I love them though and always will.
You would think that after an advertising gimmick like this, that the MOTU toy line would have expanded longer than it did. It is amazing how it changes though, one day it's MOTU then it's TMNT, then Power Rangers and so on. It a rat race to try to keep something alive for a period of time and some have stood the test of time, but this was one line that you would think would never fade away. But there will always be memories and that was what I tried to sustain with this video! Thank you for watching and for the comment!
OMG lol!!! I was a He-man fanatic when I was a kid. We had to go see He-man and She-ra on ice when I was 7 and then we went a year later to see Ninja Turtles on ice. I'm all nostalgic now =)
Thanks man! And thanks for watching and for your awesome comment! The video is pretty rad, but to see it live and then 30 some odd years later can remember certain details like it just happened yesterday, is really cool too!
People wonder why toy stores are full of 80s toys 30 years later...simply the best decade ever
I agree! Thanks for watching!
I can't express how much it means to me that all of you that have viewed and commented on this one video. Before my dad died, he wanted to know how "our UA-cam status" was on this video.

Absolutely! You can use the video 😊👍🏻 thanks for the credit! Can't wait to see it! 😃
sammyb7883 do you have any videos of going through toy store in the 80s
I do not sadly, I do have other nostalgic videos from places in the midwest like theme parks and such but I have not had the time to upload them all. I need to get a better computer to transfer videos to youtube. I will however, be at retrocon in the fall this year and they always have awesome throwback toys that I haven't seen in ages.

Being a child in the 80s was awesome :D

I agree, thanks for the comment!
Wow. Consumer culture was so vastly different and better back then. There are no more displays like this at all.
Just saw this.... Sorry bout ur pops, I lost mine in '12 right before Thanksgiving.
THANK YOU FOR THIS
It's a crime that they don't make stuff like this anymore.
Excellent. This is when the franchise was at its peak in popularity, before everything snowballed downward.
I need to finish building my time machine, this will be my first stop. Thanks for uploading this
This would be your first stop? Not judging but, if you have a time machine, prevent some things like, the birth of Hitler or the death of John Lennon...then head to this mall and have your mind blown! Thank you for the comment, made me chuckle, and thank you for watching!

Most powerfull video in the Universe... thank you and your dad. I´m 46 and still have my He-man and Skeletor with me.
I saw this in ST LOUIS. Brings back good memories!! Thank you for sharing!!
your dad is the best.....much appreciated.....
This would have blown my mind as a kid! I remember seeing pictures of this set up in catalogs!
Thank you for watching! This was one of those times that I can remember so vividly from my youth of actually walking in and seeing this amazing show, and even better to get to see it whenever I wanted to because we had it on videotape.

This is a real treat for MOTU fans...Love the diorama etc and imagine meeting Hordak as a kid...I'd probably ask "Can I join The Evil Horde Hordak" lol
as a masters fan who wasn’t even alive in the 80’s I can’t express how happy this makes me…
And this is what makes 80's toylines the best ever. Thank you so much for sharing this and God bless your dad for recording and preserving this video. That was awesome!
Thank You so much! My dad recorded every event but this was by far the coolest thing that I could find from our home movie archives!
I saw this video years ago and started to create my own MOTU display. I was motivated to make a GI JOE display ( GI JOE WORLD video on youtube of the video by my friend and producerJjimmyjim) that took over 1 year to put together and now ready to show my MOTU diorama.

Stay talented my friend!
HOLY COW!! That Pepper’s Ghost/Musion Projection of He-Man/Skeletor was amazing! Especially for the 1980s. WOW!
I was just talking about this display, when it was at the KOP mall down my way. You have put a light back into my hart. In addition I can show my wife what I was talking about. Thank You
You are very welcome. :) Thank you for watching! Please forgive the lateness of my reply
This is absolutely incredible! Glad to have been a child of the '80s.
Thanks for watching! Being a kid in the 80's was an incredible time. Can not be matched!
Just discovered today from a post in the "He-Man and the Masters of the Universe Fans" group on Facebook. So good! Really takes me back. Thanks for sharing!
I would have shit myself as a child if i had seen this!!
They really knew how to market.
If my dad kept recording, you would have seen my mom changing my diaper because I did, in fact...shit myself. Haha, agreed, Mattel was the prime leader in marketing, much like nintendo in the late 80's/ early 90's. Thanks for watching!
well said 😂
This was an amazing set
4 year old me back then loved this
Sorry to hear about your Dad. I love that you two could share the bond of He-Man and UA-cam! This makes me want to record everything!
I appreciate that and thank you for your kind words. Miss the guy a lot but he left me with memories like this that I can treasure for a lifetime. He was a great father but a better friend. Thanks for watching!
I thank my dad for getting a camera in the 80's record all the cool stuff!
Awesome video I was born in 1979 and remember getting all these Masters of the Universe toys for my birthdays and Christmas, Snake mountain and Castle Greyskull... man I wish I had them all back.
This had to be the greatest advertising for any toy line in any era. I've never seen anything like this and sadly, probably never will. Thank you for watching!
A round of applause for your Dad. I remember going to this when it came through Chicago. It still holds up.
I've been looking for this forever! I remember seeing this in one of the malls near me! Thank you for sharing this!
Not only years after your father recorded this and kept it preserved is it being enjoyed but years after it was uploaded as well. I just got randomly recommended it today and appreciate the opportunity to get to see it.
Would have loved this as a kid. I was all into He-Man. Never got to see any live performers or anything like this though. It's awesome to see how they had this stuff going on back then.
whomever recorded this I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you for watching, my dad recorded this and I know it’s not the best camera work but he did his best to keep a heavy camera on his shoulder, trying to capture what he could in low light. He has since passed but if he were still alive, his words to you would probably had been,”rad! Thanks for watching bud!”.
Reminds me the galerie lafayette christmas toy display in france!!! Fantastic!! Big thx to your dad!
I have never heard of that but now I have something new to Google! Thanks, and Thank you for watching and for the comment! Have a great week!
I wish this would have came to Vancouver, Canada because I probably would have watched that like 20 times as a kid, truly awesome
What a jewel still in 2019 in our hearts.. and beyond.
Thank you for the comment! And thank you for watching!
the true childhood of our time man this was so awesome, heman was one of my favorites and i never get tired when he bust out the sword and says his powerful line,
This was wonderful! Thanks for helping to preserve great childhood memories from back in the 1980s.
tears in my eyes. so awesome.
Wow, they were really serious about selling He-man toys. That Hordak costume is amazing.
It was the coolest display that my young eyes had ever seen or will ever see! Thanks for watching!
That was amazing! It reminds me of a the Storybook Boat Ride from Disneyland, with all the miniature kingdoms and castles, only, you know, of course, with HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE!!!
This is tremendous..... Your dad did a nice job filming this.
Thanks!
I love that Mattel used half of the musical excerpts from She-Ra for a He-Man promotional. Pretty cool overall for the time.
Thank you so much for uploading and to your dad for saving this!. I remember going to this exact same thing at a mall in Las Vegas as a kid with one of my best friends. The memory stuck with me, but I have never seen mention of it online anywhere, so I was actually beginning to doubt my childhood memory.
OMG! That's was freaking AWESOME!!!
OMG! I TOTALLY FREAKING AGREE!!! haha! I'm glad that you enjoyed the video and thank you for watching!
Wow! This looked totally awesome. Now we know why kids of that generation don't want to grow up and still buy toys today. I'm not complaining mind you.
Absolutely amazing!!! Thank you for posting this
awesome hordak outfit! thanks for posting this rare footage! masters forever!
best decade for toys....I'm a historian.....born in the 80s.....
UA-cam video of the year so far, probably wont be topped! :)
It was cool they let him record it yes, but remember, back then there was no internet to post the footage on for spoilers. I would love if MattyCollector or Mattel did something like this. Hell, I'd like it if they brought the figures back IN STORES rather than just online.
que cosa mas loca, como me hubiera encantado vivir esa experiencia. Gracias, muchas gracias por compartirlo
Sorry for your loss man. This is a great document! It's so cool that your dad had the insight to record it for you.
Thank you, I really appreciate your sympathy. He was a great Dad and always did fun stuff like this for my brother, sister and I. I remember him telling me when we watched this again when I was 6 or 7 that he didn't have the heart to record over it because no one else had a video camera that day. That maybe we will have the last video evidence of this. Didn't understand back then but you are correct that he had insight. Thank you for watching!
Oh my god best video I've seen on UA-cam in a looooooong time!! I loved it thank you fir sharing!!!!!
This is one of my favorite UA-cam videos ever
Thanks Dude! I appreciate your comment! Have a great rest of your week and thank you for watching!
This was freakin awesome! I wish I could have seen it in '86. I was 10 at the time...it would have blown my mind to see it!!!
Automatic thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!!!! Born in 1981! Was a big He-Man fan! Dad bought me the snake dude, yellow spinning guy, hammer head, battle cat, blue He-Man, and Hordak! Still got Castle Greyskull sitting in Moms house! Saw Lundgren movie in theaters, and the She-Ra/He-Man team up movie at the theater! We had the ultimate childhood sadly missed! I still own every vhs tape I ever had to this day.
My fellow MOTU nerd! haha, I am glad that you enjoyed this video and this was put up on UA-cam for people just like you and me, fans of this toy mecca universe! Thanks for watching!
Wow, this is awesome. Thank you for sharing this.
This is awesome. I've had it saved forever, and it's great to watch every once in a while, a happy trip back to Eternia and simpler times. my daughter thinks it's pretty amazing too, as she's a fan of MOTU and PoP like we were as kiddos. Thank you for sharing!
Wow, this is really awesome footage!! I love it! Thanks for sharing!
That was freakin awesome!!! I wish I could have seen that growing up. Props to your dad for catching it on film!
Thanks so much! My dad would have loved to see comments like that!
thank you for posting!! love it!!! toys were so much better back then!
Right on dude, thanks for watching!
This would have blown my mind as a 6 year old! awesome!
It was amazing from what i remember of it! Awesome 80's effects and music! Thanks for watching!
If I could go to a place like this at 5 years old here in Italy, my head could have blown off!!!
Well, I went to see it and i still have my head attached...but I feel ya dude! lol Thanks for watching!

Truly a family fun experience yesterday to what is Comic Con today. I recently reviewed the Minicomic collection and I may plan to crowd fund the Eternia playset (because I never bought the original in '86). My father passed away years ago but he was never a fan.

Being a parent means showing them the world but also taking the time for you to understand and see their world too. Take care!
I wish I'll wake up and it was still the 80's and being a kid yet.
Holy cow, that was mind blowing. They've never done anything this cool with any other toyline since!
⚔️2022 Still and always Awesome.👍
This is awesome...
Amazing piece of history.
Thanks for watching! As far as I know, this is the only video of this event. I hope someone else has another video of this, it would be interesting to see it from another mall! Thanks for watching!
thx alot for share i was a kid at 80s too means alot GOD bless you and you family
That was amazing!!!
I know how I wanna set up my MotU display room now!! :D
I have the actual play sets that were used during this mall tour. I want to make a video about them and hoped to use some of this footage. Wanted to ask your permission. I'd give credit. Please let me know. Thanks
when
Video makes me miss my dad so much, my dad never did took videos of us nor took us to events. But he sure did bought us all the toys we wanted such as he-man
Thanks for watching! We didn't have much of the He-Man toys, just a few. But we had plenty of super hero toys and ghostbusters toys, G.I. Joe and Thundercats! Then Nintendo came around and that was all I wanted was games and nintendo toys! Take care!
sammyb7883 imagine that from both ends of the world and our parents and toys did made us had the same experience. Thumbs up to ur dad, these made me teary eyed.
Thank you very much!
This display is bad ass. After the Cartoon ended I was done with He-Man. I didn't know about the Comic. Moved on to Transformer's after that.
I noticed that in the beginning, Hordak from She-Ra was there! Cool! If I would have been
there. I'd take a picture, he looked so cool!!!
Where I lived we had a similar event but on a much smaller scale. He-Man and Skeletor made a promotional appearance at "The Hobby Shop" where they brought out toys and playsets like Castle GreySkull and Snake Mountain. I bought two figures at this event Buzzoff I believe and another but I don't remember the other, maybe Zodac.
All the kids were given orange cardboard Zodac pistals and I "Shot" He Man, I love the villains.
The costumes were made of rubber and both He Man and Skeletor looked their figures...literally. 1984 was a good year!
That would be really cool to see! Thanks for watching!
hello! man thank you for share this beautifull video, in my country i never see something like this... i was a child in the 80's and now im collecting the masters of the universe toyline again
Awesome! Thank You for watching! Which part of the world are you from? I like you, am a child of the 80's as you can see in the video!! After 7 years of this video being up on UA-cam, it is always nice to see new comments from fans just like you! Thanks again for watching!
thank you for answer , im from Uruguay ( a little country in south america), your video is very special and i love it, full of memories from your family time and motu toys
I love that. I love that our little home video has reached not only people in my country but to other beautiful countries around the world as well. It was a fantastic time in my youth and a very special moment captured on video indeed. Thank you for your wonderful words and I appreciate you taking the time to watch and for the comments! I posted this video for fans just like you and me! Take care!
This must be the coolest thing I've ever seen! If they still did stuff like this to promote their toys maybe kids would still be playing with them
He-man collection and six million dollar man if someday comeback to this stores I will be jumping like when I was a kid, now I'm 40. Love the 80's.
That was awesome
Amazing! A perfect example of nostalgia! Brilliant!
Thanks for watching!
That was really cool to see! Thanks so much for sharing!
I can't believe how quickly the Masters of the Universe line faded after its initial run of, what, three or four years? Quite amazing how fast the public consciousness changes. I love them though and always will.
You would think that after an advertising gimmick like this, that the MOTU toy line would have expanded longer than it did. It is amazing how it changes though, one day it's MOTU then it's TMNT, then Power Rangers and so on. It a rat race to try to keep something alive for a period of time and some have stood the test of time, but this was one line that you would think would never fade away. But there will always be memories and that was what I tried to sustain with this video! Thank you for watching and for the comment!
Sam, this is badass!
Thanks bro! All the credit goes to my dad though! He had the foresight to record it back in the 80’s!
@@sammyb7883 That's awesome!
Yo,I wuld of freaked out to have experiened this.Was about 7 in 1986 loved MOTU.
Thank you for this
OMG lol!!! I was a He-man fanatic when I was a kid. We had to go see He-man and She-ra on ice when I was 7 and then we went a year later to see Ninja Turtles on ice. I'm all nostalgic now =)
Wow!!! This MOTU display is sooo awesome! You have the Power, UA-camr!
Thanks for watching UA-cam Watcher!! Haha!
This video is amazing I wish I could have seen this when I was a kid truly a gem! Thank you for this video!
Thanks man! And thanks for watching and for your awesome comment! The video is pretty rad, but to see it live and then 30 some odd years later can remember certain details like it just happened yesterday, is really cool too!
This is a great idea to showcase new toys. He Man was the best
Toy companies really don't know how to market to the consumer anymore. Thanks for watching!
This is amazing!
That is amazing!:) Great job capturing this!
