Illumina Day has returned!
Welcome to Illumina Day, 2014.
By the end of 2015, we will have every single MOTU and PoP figure from the 80's made in the Masters of the Universe Classics line, as well as the main New Adventures, 200X and Filmation characters.
Now is the time for Illumina. On December 15th, 2011, the very first "Illumina Day" was held and it got some great support throughout the web. One common theme though, was some people wanted "Ram Man" first or "X" other character before Illumina. All those requested figures people wanted before Illumina have now been made.
Also in 2011, Mattel gave He-Man.org and a few German fan sites the chance to get their top character choice a spot on the Fan Choice vote. Illumina won the He-Man.org fan vote and came in second place overall between the German fan sites (Geldor won their vote). Mattel chose the other 6 slots.
In 2012, the fan vote took place. For every 2013 MOTUC sub you purchased, you got a "ticket" you could vote with. Geldor came in first place, with Illumina a VERY close second. Toyguru announced she lost by a mere 20 votes! Geldor was released November, 2013.
In 2014, He-Man.org held a 2016 MOTUC Character Selection Playoffs. Every single character and variant from every single iteration of MOTU was on the voting list. This list included everything, including all German, Brazilian and UK comics, books, audio plays, etc. The list was exhaustive. Illumina lasted 10 weeks and ranked #13th in the 4th round (out of 5 rounds, only the top 10 moved on).
Fans have proven countless times how popular Illumina is and how they would love to see her in MOTUC. Please show your continued support for Illumina in MOTUC on "Illumina Day!" - December 15th, 2014 by posting fan art, cosplay, fanfic, poems, cakes, or anything else. Any and all support is appreciated.
