I watched this the other day too. It was pretty neat. I also watched the He-Man episode which was just as interesting. I had no idea that He-Man was created as Mattel’s direct response to the crazy success of Kenner’s Star Wars line. They even called him their “Star Wars killer”! No spoilers, but Skeletor’s inspiration is mind boggling, and truly scary. They only scratch the surface in the show, but a quick google will turn up the full morbid tale!
