TatTF: He-Man and Dinosaurs!

by Paul

I’m running this toy ad for about only one reason and that is because it’s fugging awesome:

Okay, at what point did He-Man fight full on dinosaurs? I’m not talking about machines that look like dinosaurs or dinosaur men, but freaking full on dinosaurs?! My opinion of He-Man has gone up a few notches and he was pretty high up there to begin with. I feel kind of dumb for having missed this, but my limited research shows that this occurred near the end of the line when I had lost almost all my interest and was in full on G.I. Joe fever and the only cure was more cowbell… I mean G.I. Joes. Mattel, when making the new He-Man line be sure to keep in mind that dinosaurs can make almost anything better from movies to breakfast cereals.

By the way, I really don’t know what the deal is at the end of the commercial. A fan edit perhaps?

    I owned Tyrantisaurus Rex as a kid. He was COMPLETELY AWESOME. Eventually I repainted him red to be Devil Dinosaur–true story.

    Tyrantisaurus is probably one of my few remaining Holy Grails…

    …thereby making Poe the only person on Earth, in the ’80s, who ever WANTED a Devil Dinosaur.
