JOB: action figure comrad to He Man baddie Skeletor
DESCRIPTION: According to He Man/Masters of the Universe buffs, this is quite a rarity. Apparently, when the He Man cartoon was in it's prime in the 80s, they decided to give He Man a rest for one episode and let Mr. T fight Skeletor and keep Eternia safe for the day. Needless to say, it ended in disaster.
"Oh yeah, the atmosphere was awful", speaks skinless co-worker Skeletor. "on our show, standard fair is I try and take over the castle, I cackle maniacally and He Man foils my plot, and I escape to fight another day. Mr. T actually came over to me as I was trying to break into the castle, put me in an unmarked van and locked the doors, telling me to think about what I'd done. I was in that car for 14 HOURS. Fair play to him, I did think about what I had done, but that's not the point. It was a really boring episode. And this is coming from a man who's fought with children over Pepsi Blue and stayed over at Pee-Wee Herman's house."
And what about the cassette?
"Don't get me STARTED on the cassette thing," claims Skeletor. "He was told to talk about Moss-Man, and Man-At-Arms, and Sy-Klone, and how I was such an idiot. After 3 MINUTES he got bored, and decided to "spice things up, T-Style". He started rifling through a newspaper, trying to go down a political route with his comedy. Don't get me wrong, it was a funny set, but it didn't belong on a cassette 9 year olds were going to listen to. He then went on about how vulcanized rubber won't perish and why you shouldn't put staplers in jelly. It was a nightmare."
Mattel recalled the two-packs after abysmal sales, but apparently, the stock never made it back to the warehouse. Reports claim all the trucks were pulled over by a man with a chia pet on his head and ten tonnes of gold around his neck, but it has yet to be substantiated.
