[QUOTE="LBD "Nytetrayn", post: 183797, member: 20"] [CENTER][ATTACH type="full" alt="1762503837151.png"]32398[/ATTACH][/CENTER] As you might have heard, longtime rivals of the toy aisle Mattel and Hasbro are getting on pretty well these days, leading to a fair bit of crossover between some of each company's most famous brands. Like some sort of "collaboration". Among those pairings of properties has been a new line that shows the Power of Grayskull is More Than Meets the Eye, 'Til All Are One... or something. It's [I]Masters of the Universe[/I] and [I]Transformers[/I], in case you don't get it yet, what with the big header and all. Anyway, the point of this post is less about the toys, and more about the lore. See, as with many a MotU action figure over the brand's many years, the new Energon of Grayskull figures each come with a mini-comic that details the story of why and how this is all happening. Wave 1 of Man-at-Arms in Bumblebee armor and Skeletor in Megatron armor come with the first part of the story, while Wave 2, featuring He-Man in Optimus Prime armor and Scareglow in Starscream armor, feature the last(?) half. But good news! If you're more interested in the story than you are in purchasing the figures, Mattel Creations has uploaded both parts of the story as semi-animated "motion comics" to their YouTube channel, complete with music! No voice acting, though. And hey, maybe if you like what you see, they're probably hopeful that you'll come around on that whole "less interested in purchasing the figures" part of the deal.
