great review , there is one extra feature with the front guns . they are intended to be removable and you can use them as guns for the figures for those with a grip hand .,it's why they have that longer peg on the outer side then the stubby block from the original Stridor
I got the vintage Stridor for my birthday last Sunday, (first gift of the day too!) I saw the Origins one at Target a few weeks before that and showed my dad, telling him I wanted it for birthday, instead I got Jitsu that day, my dad said he was nostalgic when I picked him. I don't have a vintage or Origins Fisto yet, so for now my vintage Mechaneck is Stridor's rider.
I agree, the blast effects are nearly useless, unless repurposed. I'd rather they give us some other small creatures like the gargoyles in the Battlefield Warriors set.
Hey friends! I received mine from Target, last month and I couldn't be happier with my beloved robotic steed Stridor. I remember when the vintage one was released in my childhood years n my mom brought it home as a gift to me for getting good grades at school. She loved it n I loved it. Now I have that Stridor alongside Fisto, it was a 2 pack by the way, & the new improved Origins one. I have both, vintage & new with their respective Fistos. I'm a happy camper. Sadly I sold my Classics Stridor because I was in need of some money at the time. I sold more than 35 action figures from the Classics line after years of collecting them. Well, that was a bit of a heartache but, I have in my Motu collection almost all of the vintage action figures and a decent amount of the Origins ones. I'm not going to collect the whole entire lineup of Origins figs, just those of interest. 🙏🏼👍
Thank you for the review. Looking at the art on the back of the box I’ll be very surprised if, when they do eventually bring out Night Stalker, the art on the back of its box doesn’t line up with this one.
you aren't really that late on it, bro. it only just started to show up at stores like target in the past month now. canada toysrus stores started getting them back in january
The moment I saw one of these bros in Target I had to pick him up, despite having him pre-ordered on BBTS (I guess one of my nephews is getting that one lol)
I have the original Stridor (on display on the top of my bookcase), and I gotta say I'm impressed with how close the two look! I'm also impressed how Stridor doesn't have the spell check red line underneath when I type it! I was pretty sure it'd have it lol!
i just stuck the blast effects on my skysled on the side guns - but yea i did not like the way they looked on stridor, but i have him with my Etenia guard version of Man at Arms as he builds him in the Filmation Cartoon. so not sure if he did in the comic but yea.
The figures sit a little deep for my liking. You can barely see them. I ended up using the new orange Roboto since I don't have Fisto. The colour schemes match quite well.
I saw Stridor a few weeks back at Target but purposely didn’t pick it up because I’ve had it preordered from BBTS (as I would prefer to get them via that route with undamaged packaging). Not sure what’s going on with their shipments lately as Wave 7 has also been in stock for quite a while at both Walmart and Target and yet the BBTS shipments are still nowhere in sight. It’s been nearly 6 months since I got anything new from Origins, so I may have to cave in and just get them next time I go to either store.
I’m staying away from the vehicles/beasts because I have no room to display them. Only one I have is the sky sled cause it came with prince Adam. But this looks great. Might get it fir my son. He’s got panthor and battle cat already.
Right quick, the front "knees" are his wrists. Horses basically stand on tiptoes. Anyway, he looks AWESOME! The blast effects could look better with a different color, some slimming down, or both, but they could also be repurposed. I use Prince Adam's sword effect with Kronos's rifle since it's just heavy, and it looks decent as a rifle blast.
Hunh. With that Nightstalker helm, maybe I’ll get another Stridor, and take my MOTUO Skeletor off that skeleton duck I got last Halloween! Yeah, I have a strange sense of humor…
if it's similar to some the other MOTU motorised vehicles sometimes the cogs in the motors seize over time with non use. if you have fresh batteries in it and in the on position , you may need to gently manually move the main gear , I'm not to familiar with the Eterina set up but that worked for both my dragon walkers and the Attack track
I don´t like this horse. I find it silly because it is too earth-like. But it is done much better than battle cat. It has a well sized head that fits to perfectly the body unlike battle cat who looks pretty dumb without helmet/mask. ... cause the head is too small ...
Came here to see if I was missing something on connecting it to Grayskull. Guess it really doesn't do it very well. They should release a right-side and floor section for the castle. Enough of these silly horsey stands and dungeon monster stands that just don't work right! Give us more grayskull! Take mah money, Mattel!
Dammit. I have to stop watching you. You're making me spend so much on toys.... ;) Just paused and went on over to Ebay. Stridor on its way! (edit: 666 likes with this comment. Seems right.)

Repaint Stridor solid red.
Put water gun effects on him.
Snout Spout now has a "fire engine".
I never had the vintage Stridor so this was a great one to get finally!
I had the vintage strider. And since the golden books story Teela's Secret had Teela using him, I always associated him as Teela's mount.

Happy belated birthday! Keep MOTU alive!
Fisto do a Napolean on horse pose. And why not.
One of the joy of owning Master figures.
I literally just got him new in box for 2.99 at d ds discount !!!! WHAT A FIND !!!!

This is a great creature/set. Can’t wait for Night Stalker
This is one of my favorite toys in the line. My vintage style MAA/Palace guard is riding mine like a boss.
I picked one up a week ago and it's so cool.
I had enough money to get this or a flocked Panthor and I chose this.
My Stridor arrived yesterday and man, he is really awesome. An absolutely cool Beast/Vehicle.

Just got this guy for my birthday this past week, along with Clamp Champ!
Nice! Happy belated birthday.
you aren't really that late on it, bro. it only just started to show up at stores like target in the past month now. canada toysrus stores started getting them back in january
I love this version of Stridor, the finish is great. It is quite a beautiful vehicle.
I just picked one up for 14.99 I'm pretty impressed looks cool with the collection
The moment I saw one of these bros in Target I had to pick him up, despite having him pre-ordered on BBTS (I guess one of my nephews is getting that one lol)
The exact same thing happened to me, lol! Now I just need to figure out which nephew gets the extra Stridor.
Masterverse Fisto fits quite well in this Stridor too.
Got my Stridor last night, and tested my homeless Fisto-oh, yeah, it works!
I was thinking about geting one or three, for some clasics characters to ride, more in traditional horse manner, but that won't work.
I’m very happy to have picked up Stridor he’s awesome
Does the stand attach to the Battlefield Warriors stand? Maybe there is a secret base easter egg to discover.
i think the thing in the mouth that is basically the steering wheel and is called "the bridle".
I have the original Stridor (on display on the top of my bookcase), and I gotta say I'm impressed with how close the two look! I'm also impressed how Stridor doesn't have the spell check red line underneath when I type it! I was pretty sure it'd have it lol!
If he shoots water cannons maybe Snout Spout should start riding him.
i just stuck the blast effects on my skysled on the side guns - but yea i did not like the way they looked on stridor, but i have him with my Etenia guard version of Man at Arms as he builds him in the Filmation Cartoon. so not sure if he did in the comic but yea.
Just picked one up at Ross 4599 and then immediately watched your video for the unboxing before I unbox mine
I go him at a discount price at a bargain store and he's so cool. I love having a stidor who can move his legs.
Looks like Mattel got the message about the ankles on the cats, nice 👍
I hope I can get this one! I don’t have that many figures, but I have all the vehicles released so far.
i would love to get packaging with the window art still there before its cut out

It's comparison time...THE BEST!

The twin shoulder guns tend to pop off while moving it up and down. Pretty well done Origins release still
Superb release right right of the gate, superior to the vintage in almost every way!!
Me again ... you think that the origins-line is done ? I would like to see snake mountain and the hord´s fright zone.
Does the Stridor stand maybe clip in with the Battle Damage Heman stand ?
I am wondering the same. Maybe there is a secret scheme behind their madness, and eventually all the pieces will come together!
I think those straps on strider are called reins dan.
i scored one of these at ROSS for $6 today.
I've just got this marvelous toy. Now, let's open it. Great video. Greetings from Mexico City.😎
I saw these in a couple of Walmarts, but don't have the money to get one right now. Hopefully I can get one later.
14.99 in Target right now.
Masterverse and Classics fit in this. Surprised you didn't show that. :)
Gotta catch them all!
That is definitely something great about the new ones, the articulation as opposed to none heh.
Shame Panthor didn't come with his Classics helmet.
I watch these videos so I can keep mine in their packaging
Awesome I did pick one up it
Thanks for the great review! 🤘
I like it! I could use it also for some Link figures I suppose.😮
Wear is the wind raider video?
I’m confused is stridor he man’s or fisto’s?
Hunh. With that Nightstalker helm, maybe I’ll get another Stridor, and take my MOTUO Skeletor off that skeleton duck I got last Halloween! Yeah, I have a strange sense of humor…
Hey Dan I just got the vintage eterina play set I was wonder if you know how to fix the motor because mine does not work?
if it's similar to some the other MOTU motorised vehicles sometimes the cogs in the motors seize over time with non use. if you have fresh batteries in it and in the on position , you may need to gently manually move the main gear , I'm not to familiar with the Eterina set up but that worked for both my dragon walkers and the Attack track
Thank you so much I’ll have to try that!
Amazing.
Brutal
He is considers a Horse-Droid. Robocop should be riding him.
If I was gonna display this I would replace the tail with some actual hair, maybe my little pony
Epic
I remember when I broke my tail off 😭
I assume that the green attachments lip is meant for a upcoming additional attachment in a future release.
I don´t like this horse. I find it silly because it is too earth-like. But it is done much better than battle cat. It has a well sized head that fits to perfectly the body unlike battle cat who looks pretty dumb without helmet/mask. ... cause the head is too small ...
Up
Key this Dwight. My. Stridor Herok At Walmart Erwin Friday morning him okay love Dwight 👍 and I happy you with your ok love Dwight 👍
Classics fit on this Stridor too. Which you forgot to mention.
finally a great motu review. not any of those fake motu reviews. cough the cgi or revelations ones. lol
@Latest Obsession your concept of understanding is lacking! Maybe you need a reboot?

Can Stridor hold regular 6 inch figures like GI Joe or Valaverse?
Easily. I have mine with a Masterverse Roboto riding in it.
