Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

  • Hey, It's That Voice!:
    • Most notable in the 2002 version. Duncan/Man-At-Arms is Optimus Primal, Grounder, and Slash Teela is Relena Peacecraft and Felicia and Evil-Lyn is Dot Matrix and Morrigan.
    • Leonardo and Liquid Snake are Prince Adam/He-Man.
    • Mer-Man has Waspinator's voice coming out his mouth.
    • Interestingly, Scott McNeil and Gary Chalk both had previous He-Man experience; Chalk voiced Alcon and He-Man himself in The New Adventures of He-Man, and McNeil was Flipshot and BH.
    • In the original Filmation version, He-Man (or Plundor the Spoiler) was previously Reggie Mantle.
    • Executive producer Lou Scheimer (who went by the psudonym "Erik Gunden") made it a regular thing to do voices in his company's shows (one of the more notable examples being Dumb Donald), and this one was no exception. Here he plays Orko, King Randor, and Trap Jaw, but Lou has also played others within the series due to its cast limit (including Lizard Man, Kobra Khan and Clawful).
  • What Could Have Been:
    • There were plans for a prequel to both MotU and She-Ra featuring an ancestor of the main characters, He-Ro. Yeah, those never saw the light of day, but He-Ro has recently been released as part of the MotU Classics toyline.
    • Similarly, Vikor, He-Man of the North, is a MOTU classics figure based on the earliest stage of what would become He-Man's design.
    • There were also plans for a sequel to the live action movie too, which got as far as early production. However, due to monetary issues and the film being a fail, Canon Films lost the rights to the franchise and the whole project, along with the canceled Canon Film's Spider-Man production assets, eventually turned into Albert Pyun's Cyborg
    • Plans for a third season of the 2002 series included Hordak returning and conquering Eternia. He-Man and the Masters would've essentially become a resistance movement and Skeletor would've also been at odds with Hordak.
    • She-Ra was also to make an appearance.
    • The Monogram figure kit line was almost cancelled in favor of another project (which didn't itself see the light of day): a 1/25 scale Dodge Diplomat police car.
