Is there a He-man equivalent to Yo-Joe?
I need some kind of reference to match up weapons and figures.
I had a lazy google but didn't turn anything up.

Stick a piccie up here mate! I've not (yet) got a collection of them, but I was mad for them as a kid, and I'm sure I'll remember most of what goes with who. Even if not it'll be fun trying!

he-man.org is the most comprehensive MOTU site I know, but they don't have any accessory-idenify feature as far as I know.
I'd say follow what SteveD said and show them to us. I also the ID process will be fun.

Been sorting through my recent MOTU acquisition. Lots of fun I can tell you! These are the ones I don't recognise from my childhood or duplicates and consequently I'm not interested in keeping them.
Prices are from 50p (for Buzz Off with no wings for example) to £8 (for King Hiss who looks complete).
Slip me a PM for details.

These are the keepers

I'm looking to find out who is complete and if not what is missing. Also who the owner of the yellow mace is. Also looking for figure IDs for the spares photo above this post.

I think the Club may be Mermans. I seem to recall he may have had two weapons, and the colour looks right?

I'll correct myself - I think it's Man at Arms, but it looks orange in this photo, whilst yours looks yellow? -

Good site by the way - should help the ID's?

Bottom row, third from last (next to battle armour skeletor) isn't MOTU mate - he's John Blackstar! Often mixed in with the MOTU figs as they are very similar, but they have a little mechanism in the back with flint in that makes the chest flash! I've got a few -I love them!

So, from the top, and from memory:-
Flying Fists He Man, viking dude I have no idea (doesn't look He Man?) Rio Blast, Sy Klone, Battle Armour Skeletor, Battle Armour He Man, Buzz Off, Tung Lashor,Tri Klops, King Hiss, Grizzlor (brown face), another Battle Armour Skeletor, John Blackstar!!!! some weird little dude, and the Stonedar.
DA will no doubt correct me if I'm wrong, as I bet he knows! If I'm right do I get a prize?
