One hour He-Man TV special coming in 2002! New line delayed for good reasons.

[The Clown Prince]

This comes from www.he-man.org

"Mattel has announced that the new line of Masters of the Universe toys will be delayed until later in 2002.

But why? Many want to know...and Mattel is happy to tell the fans.

There have been rumors about why Mattel has delayed the release. But, it's simply a matter of Mattel debuting the new line with a bang!

Instead of introducing assortments over the course of the next year, the whole first wave of toys is going to hit stores at one time!
He-Man is exploding onto shelves, taking the toy market by storm!!

And what could make this momentous event even better? A one hour television special that not only introduces Masters of the Universe to a new generation, but once and for all tells the definitive tale of how Prince Adam became the Most Powerful Man in the Universe!

Stay tuned for more details from Mattel!"

Being a huge He-Man fan, I cannot wait till' next year for this, all of this!!!! I'm as giddy as a little school girl. (insert Homer Simpson girlish giggle here)

I loved watching He-Man and She-Ra as a kid; this news is great! I wonder if this special will be animated? It would be interesting to see what new look they give to him.

This is the animation company suspected of doing the new series... http://www.louscheimerproductions.com/

Lou Scheimer was the executive producer of the original He-Man and She-Ra series. In the news section updated October 29th, this is what they had to say... "In the not-too-distant future, we should have some very exciting news for everyone so thanks to all of you for keeping up the positive thoughts for LSP. I'm pretty sure, you won't be disappointed."

Fans like myself are starting to put 2 and 2 together and we're all hoping that the news Mattel announced will be the same news that Lou Scheimer Productions announces, that they are doing the new series.

He-Man's new look will mostl likely look like his toy counter part. The new toys are at the top of the page...
