I dunno, I understand classic Orko was annoying but he kinda won me over when in that after-episode PSA about bad touches he stated he would personally cause physical harm to a child molester if given the opportunity. No magic, he would just keep wailing on them as indicated by rolling up his sleeves.

I mean, I don’t advocate corporal punishment in real life due to how easily it would be for governments to frame people they don’t like, but I find the anger behind his statement admirable and amazingly jarring.

Funnily Enough, Entrapta isn’t the first science friend of Hordak

Modulok: The master of Body modification!

Modulok was exceptional among villains in that they had a character arc between the He-Man and She-Ra cartoons.

He started as a villain in the He-Man Show before joining the Horde in the She-Ra cartoon, because the Horde actually treated him better than his previous allies, even getting along with Hordak thanks to their shared scientific interests.

However it does not work out as well as Hordak’s friendship with Entrapta in the reboot.

When Modulok fails him, Hordak demotes him from Head Scientist to Head Cook eliciting one of the most self-aware lines of any villain in the franchise:

“Sometimes it just doesn't pay to be evil"

Still he manages to climb his  back up the ladder by the time of future episodes to cause trouble with his science even if he never regains the title of “Top Scientist”

More Mantisaur stuff

Concept art. Note started as an armored animal

Filmation appearance in A Talent for Trouble

Animators were likely working with a unfinished design

Between a Rock and a Hard Place!

Mantisaur gets to talk and displays the ability to control insects

Huh, interesting, clearly portrayed as robotic here given the text boxes, (or using machine translation) , but controls living insects

Also can’t help but hear them speaking like 

Marvel/Star Comics  Issue 03: "The Garden of Evil"

Interestingly enough drawn as having wings here and can be summoned by magic.

Speaking of Horses in MOTU/SPOP franchise

How dare they make Stridor so adorable in the remake of his toy for the Classics line?!

His beautiful eyes stare into my soul!

Thank heavens they include a helmet that allow buyers to protect themselves from his beauty.
