I'm a long time fan of MOTU, but I had no idea about the more obscure facts and history regarding The Unnamed One or Gorpo. Thus, I had no expectations either way. I think it's an amazing figure, but my gripe is a little more "literal". I think it's utterly ubsurd that they integrated the two canonical easter eggs into one figure effectively giving "The Unnamed One" a name!! He's not Unnamed...his name is Gorpo....ridiculous. Gorpo could easily have stood on his own as an amazing evil Trollan. Again, it's an incredible sculpt. And in turn, the character of The Unnamed One could have been utilized much more effectively. But instead they've neutered the awe and mystery of a villain with a name as forboding and umbral as "The Unnamed One". Oh well...regardless, thank you for the awesome review! I'm a fan, Dan!

First, thank you for the update on the castle review. I've been checking daily and anxiously awaiting your review. Big bummer about the circumstances surrounding the accessory theft, but no matter wether early or at release time either way, it'll be a great review!

Second, if anyone out there is reading this and you have a problem with Dan's receiving free samples for pre-release review and have sent him correspondence saying as much, shame on you! It's called genius marketing and you are a petty putz! Think to do it yourself next time and you'll have no gripe... The sells generated by Pixel Dan's reviews are well worth the free samples and personally (as a business owner) I feel even the castle sample would be justified.

Third and finally, Dan, Thank you. Thank you for all of the hard work you put in on the things that are so nostalgic for us 80s kids and so close to our hearts. My 8 year old son and I watch all of your MOTUC reviews together and he is excited about He-Man all over again at the end of every video. Very cool for this dad to see. Of course, every time my wife hears "Hey, guys! I'm Pixel Dan, and this is a review..." she sighs a little. lol Thank you again! I'm a fan, Dan!!
