My introduction to the world of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe was the 2000s cartoon reboot. In my opinion it is the best example of how a reboot should be made. It kept the fun spirit of the original but it had a mature tone, serialised story, more nuance and depth for the cast, great voice acting and good animation.
And yet it feels like the reboot is often overlooked if not outright ignored by the majority of the fandom. I know the toy line failed financially but the fault lies with mattel and it's obsession with He-Man and Skeletor variants and not making the toys properly articulated.
And there is the fact that CN kept changing the schedule for the cartoon so no one knew when it aired.
Fortunately, there are still people who love the 2000 cartoon and it appears mattel is giving the reboot the respect it deserves with the new line of 2000s MOTU toys. There is even confirmation of a blu ray collection coming very soon. As a fan of the series that made me a fan of Masters of the universe, I am happy to see this part of the franchise get the recognition and respect it deserves. And with the success of the new MOTU film hopefully more fans will discover the show that breathed new life into the franchise.
