I know I'm late to this, but yeah; I remember getting Snake Mountain as a kid. It didn't come with a cage though, but a net that was suspended beneath the trap door. And yes, I remember using the voice distorter wolf head with the mouth on the mountain face. That face was creepy as a kid. I also had the Hordak set, with the puppet you used to reach out from the cave hole, a tree that would grab people and a rock that was used to trap a hero's foot. Man....those were good times. Never got Castle Greyskull though; eh, I didn't mind. I was very fortunate to have what I did. And FIREBALL ISLAND! Oh my god, that game was so amazing!
This iteration of Snake Mountain definitely looks like the best one! Will have to play the long game on this one, as the funds and space just aren’t there right now. As it is, I still have no idea where Eternia is going, it will most likely be sitting in its box in our garage for a few years. Snake Mountain will probably have to sit in its box at the top of the closet next to Castle Grayskull. I honestly do not remember using the microphone all that often when I was a kid…probably because I was good with voices and often made up my own sound effects that went far beyond what the sound box was capable of producing. So, I really don’t mind that feature not being included. The throne, the removable cage and the acid pit more than make up for it. That pit is such a novel and genius idea! It’s almost as if Mattel specifically designed the modularity of the figures with that feature in mind! 😉 The original play set was admittedly very barebones compared to Grayskull. For 80 bucks, this isn’t too shabby at all!
Awesome video. can't wait to get one. I feel like the large green snake needed stickers or paint on the eyes. Probably a good piece to customise if you can paint well.
Can't wait to get mine, it's on the way!! One of my all time favorite toys as a little kid, except I used it for my Thundercats bad guys, haha. I already have a spot all picked out and ready to go for it too
I didn't have this as a kid, I have no desire to have it as an adult--I am just here to watch a fellah enjoy the hell out of the lack of floor-space he suddenly has.
An amazing playset that blows the original out of the water. My only complaint is a lack of detail on the Snake, you could tell with a paint app it would have looked fantastic. But it might have pushed the cost over a hundred dollars.
I like the snake and the little figures as well as the throne, I miss the microphone and the net below the trap, but the new stuff is somehow making up for it.
The Classics bone throne is the correct size for Origins size figures. I love this design and the upgrades of it, but it's too small for Origins still.
Wow I love your video presentation, and what a great toy. I love your appreciation for this, the inner child really shining through here and I can really feel your excitement. Having the wrestling ring set up inside for the boyz would be my setup.
I've got my Snake Mountain coming today! I'm not sure how I'll set it up yet. I wish I could have afforded an Eternia playset because it would be awesome to have all 3. Maybe we'll get a Fright Zone and Slime Pit in the future!
God bless and Happy Friday 👑 This has been a long time coming for me 💪🏿 I have my Snake mountain coming this week so excited for this playset. I like the details Mattel put into this project.
I never got Snake Mountain as a kid. I only had Castle Greyskull and every vintage figure all the way up to the Snake Men. This is definitely a must buy for me and it definitely has more charisma and stands out more than Greyskull.
Because of my limited space i go for the mega construx grayskull,and now i want also snake mountain! Also i think the scale with those minifigures goes a little better as a whole! 😊 But i like the big ones origins as well! As i said i prefer the mega construx because of my space! Also awesome review thanks for sharing with us man! 😊
I'm surprised the snake is so heavy, I think they could have made it lighter. I don't like their choice of head for the Road Ripper on the packaging. I think that head is ugly and stupid, they should have used the vintage style. Overall, it's a good, fun set.
Growing up we didn’t have money I always take my shoe box that I draw hall of justice as my diorama and I one figure it was the superpower superman my first and only figure hard times hard times
Kyle is always a king of the castle.
Looks awesome. Love the color. I wish I had space for that. Loved fireball island
How many other people use this as the original snake lair for their snake-men and used Snake mountain as skeletors lair

The commercial for Fireball Island used to get me so excited as a kid!
Stealing that giant Red Jewel!
Was fuel for the imagination.

Even though they don’t look like the regular figures, I always thought the MOTU minimates scaled perfectly with these play sets.

Yes I have this pre ordered on Amazon! Thank you for the review!

Was all playsets under size? Idk why it seem like all those figures are too big for the set.

Brother, you definitely must've had Trap-Jaw on your mind every time you tried to say trapdoor. Great review, as always.
He’s always on my mind like a young Willie Nelson

I had snake mountain as a kid never was lucky enough to have greyskull and definitely never even saw Eternia until i was an adult.
actually, just grabbed mine in the wild at target so good luck on your toy hunt guys can't wait till my son sees this for Christmas.

Kyle, is the box for this smaller than the box for Castle Grayskull? Seems smaller, but obviously Snake Mountain towers over it!
Yep smaller
Oh Shit! 😱🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼Awesome Stuff
I mean I'd love the voice speaker. Lol I won't lie, I'd play with the voice speaker too. LMAO.
Kyle looks like a kid on Christmas.
Kyle petersons the master toy collector
I purchased mine at Target just yesterday
Indeed...
Cool, thanks
Awesome bro 😎

Epic!

Say it does not look like Snake mountain maybe inspired by definitely not Snake mountain. Unless it's in the comics that way.
Nice
Muy buen video.
Would have been nice to actually see you unbox it :(
Video would be too long
Those were not roots. That is definitely a meat curtain.
