FORMO TOYS - LEGENDS OF DRAGONORE "THE BEGINING" FIGURES UP FOR PRE-ORDER NOW

I told you about Formo Toys' Masters of the Universe styled Legends of Dragonore line of figure a week or so ago. Now, the first wave in the line is up for pre-order.

There will be two ways to get the figures, but both ways only allow you to buy them as full set.

The first is just will contain only the six (seven with the build-a-figure) figures.

The second will contain all six figures (seven) as well as an "early bird" kit featuring a cardboard backdrop of the Castle Dragonore that you can display your figures with.

It also includes cardboard cut outs of the characters and a poster.

The regular set will cost you $179.94 ($29.99 per figure) and the early bird kit will be $200. Pre-orders direct from Formo Toys will close on August 7th.

These figures are set to begin to ship in Q2 of 2023.

As a second pre-order option, Big Bad Toy Store is also offering these figures, but for a bit more that ordering direct from Formo Toys. BBTS is also requiring a small deposit when you pre-order. You can also orderthe figures individually from them for $32.99 each.

Here's the full reveal of the figures included in this wave.

FORMO TOYS - LEGENDS OF DRAGONORE

There have been quite a few small figure lines that are styled after the original Mattel Master of the Universe style of figures, and they've all been of various levels of interest to me, but none that I've actually purchased as of yet. That might be changing with Formo Toys' upcoming Legends of Dragonore line of figure.

While I do wish that they had the new MOTU Origins style of articulation rather than the 6-point original style, the design of these figures is absolutely stunning. Each one is beautifully thought out and executed, and I love the comic book (Jack Kirby!) influence that is obvious in the designs.

Plus, they're all very diverse in their looks, but clearly all exist within the same universe. 

Here's a little info on the line direct from Formo Toys:

"This is a new and exciting line of 5.5” action figures designed to look like those found in the toy isles and toy chests of the 1980s. When action figures were simpler... yet full of creativity and fun!

The figures have been conceived and designed by Emiliano Santalucia and modeled by Peer Brauner.

Each action figure stands 5.5”, has six points of articulation and it is made of ABS and PVC plastic. The figures feature multiple pop-apart joints that ​​allow for simple mix-and-match customizing, and with the expansion of the line, will expand to a world of new possibilities, characters, and creatures. Each figure has up to ten modular joints. The joints are fully compatible with similar vintage modular figures. Most figures come with removable armor and one or more accessories.

The first wave  is entitled The Beginning and will include six figures. Each of the first 6 figures in the line also comes with one or more pieces of our first Divine Armor of Power™ figure. By collecting the entire wave, customers will be able to put together this special figure not available separately. The Divine Armor of Power™ figure is completely compatible with the other figures' joints.

Figures come packaged in retro full-color blister cards."

But, enough talk. I know what you're here for, and it's pictures! Pictures of toys! So, here they are. More info to come! If you want to know more, be sure to head on over to the Formo Toys website.
