| I just bought an Icarius figure on eba, MOC; with a "Neuvo" sticker on the right top of the card. Is there something with the stickers that make it rarer? I'm still pretty new to this, and I'd appreciate any knowledge. --steve |

| yeah i'm liking NA more everyday, i'd like to know a few things 2, the nuevo sticker indicates that it came from spain? it usualy comes with another sticker that reads "NUEVOS MASTERS DEL UNIVERSO" i guess these were the first NA figures to show up in spain the sticket with old masters logo marking a transition period? I dunno i'm just speculating |

| well they may not be rare because the line is somewhat recent and didn't sell well, but it makes sense that they are the first ones to show up, just like the classic vintage mocs with "NEW" on top |

| As far as I know, only in Spain that line comes with " nuevos masters del universo" sticker. 90% of my NA collection moc comes from an old flea market, and comes with the spanish sticker (I love that sticker). In Spain the classic vintage collection was manufacturated here in barcelona, with the mattel license with SPANISH logo MASTERS DEL UNIVERSO. I think the NA collection had that spanish sticker because the cards were not manufacturated in barcelona, tha cards were imported from italy or malaysia and here mattel spain put that spanish sticker in the cards for spanish children (is better to read LOS NUEVOS MASTERS DEL UNIVERSO than NEW ADVENTURES OF HE-MAN). Sorry for my poor english, hahahahah!! |

| Thanks, leo_skeletor! That explanation sounds pretty logical to me. The only reason I asked about the sticker was because the picture of the carded figure here on Grayskull Museum did not show it. And just a heads up, there are plenty of Spanish New Adventure MOC's currently on ebay starting out around 6.00 (US) a piece. I'm sure most of you guys know this by now. --steve |

| I remember seeing some NA figures on the classic red card on Crazycollectors. Are those legit or fan creations?? Kinda like the Leo Prince Adam on a NA card. Pretty interesting |
