Other World by Arco

[gort]

I used to have the comic in english, it came on a little fold out leaflet with most of the sets. There was more of the story on the back of the castle box (sorry about the flash, old photo)

I have the little leaflet comic. I'll snap it and post it tonite.

Thanks for the post Clambo, we don't have enough toys where the role are as clear as the Hero and the Princess!

Joke apart, these are really good quality toy comics, really closely ressemble the early Masters of the Universe mini-comics. Well, it's not surprising since The Other World is basically a bendie knock-off of MOTU, but I wouldn't have expected this level of quality, and sometime stuff I remember as a kid being top-notch are not so cool as an adult...

More black Mogs, strange face for Zendo, Hondu

[10incher]

Anyone know what other weapons came with General Ees Gee? From the pic on Virtual Toychest I can make out the shield and the strange mace looking weapon on the top right, can anyone tell what the other 2 weapons are?


Also can't tell what the 3rd weapon for Zendo is (in behind the shield). Can make out the curved axe and spear thing though.


Finally Skitzo, what is his 3rd weapon, can make out the 2 large blade weapons but can't tell the weapon on the right


Does anyone own any MOC samples of these guys and can post better pics?

[lenzy]

Sorry the quality isn't good. Jips on the right side of the picture (stick isn't painted) is variation made in Macao.

[Ghouldrool]

Allright, after some careful scrutiny of my own weapons I've come to the conclusion that:

These weapons came with General Ess Gee


And these came with Skitzo.

[lenzy]

In France, Skitzo was packaged with only two accessories and a shield

[10incher]

Good stuff Ghouldrool, were you able to figure it out from other moc pics you have?

Lenzy, I think all of the european packaged figures came with only 2 weapons. The only moc pic I have of Kreena is European, wondering if anyone has her moc in US packing?

[lenzy]

Yes you are right 10incher, all figures except Hondu were sold with only two weapons.

[Ghouldrool]

Dammit, Weapons Master. the only basic Otherworld figure I don't have.

[Grizzlor Adams]

Great looking collection! I really like the package & comic art.

[Ghouldrool]

It's a shame my Rock Thrower misses its catapult. Otherwise, great pictures, Clambo!!

[toyboxraider]

Love the collection man! I had Sir Cobra as a kid and never knew what he was till now.

[gort]

Great pics

I love the Weapons Master set; chain up the crazy werewolf guy out of harms way, but then give him loads of weapons and crud to throw at anyone who tries to get close

[Ghouldrool]

I love Sir Cobra. I'll have to keep an eye out for one. it's the sort of design you can find in a lot with cheap dinosaur monster stuff and pass it by, just like those Warrior Beasts Fire Dragons.

[toyboxraider]

You are so right ghoul, I have seen him in lots before and thought that he was just a cheap toy I used to have. I will keep a look out for him too!

[Ghouldrool]

On flea markets, I always check the dinosaur bins. Always. You never know what series gets misidentified and ends up in a ten cents dinosaur pile. It could be Dinoriders, Jurassic Park, Other World, Defenders of the Planets, Imperial, anything.
Last weekend,I found a Remco Warrior Beasts Fire Dragon! I'll post a pic of it in that topic.

[Ghouldrool]

Wow, you got an uberimpressive collection of this series together FAST! Well done, very impressive scores.
I used to love Other World for the artwork on the boxes as well, and I'm happy I saved all the Jipps and Moggs when the original figures I had deteriorated from play. This is a series that really benefits from standing together.

As for doubles, should you have a loose Weapons Master (werewolf) you want to trade, let me know. He's the last of the 3 3/4 figures I need from that line.

Other World is one of my favorite toy lines ever







LAVA MAN is the best !!!

Lots of carded variations here, will post some more pictures when I have time...


Original Other World shipping carton!

That dart game is weird, I've not seen that one before.

Yeah, it is pretty weird and cool. I have the only 2 that I have ever seen!

[gort]

Hang around here long enough and you'll find there's all manner of stuff you didn't even know you wanted.

Hey man, just wondering if you have any idea of what weapons came with Antor and Yurus? We've been trying to sort that one out for awhile now.

They came with the Battle for the Red Lake set and that is one of the few things that I do not have a packaged version of.

[clambo]

They also came packaged individually, like Sir Cobra and Froggacuda.

Looks like an Arco thing.
