I was just watching the intro for Masters Of The Universe and thought of something. How is it that no one on the entire planet ever figured out who He-Man was? Aside from the voice, Adam and He-Man look exactly the same. Also, didn't anyone ever notice that Cringer and Battlecat also looked exactly the same? He was the only green and yellow tiger in the world, after all. And one last thing. Why in the world would they trust Orko with He-man's secret?

Because Adam would typically act cowardly and He-Man was able to do incredible things with his strength that Adam could not. Plus Cringer would still wear armor and grow to triple his size so it's not like he stayed normal looking.

HellTrack

Yeah, but Clark, at least in the movies, changed his height and hair.

Even though Cringer grew much larger, he was still a green and yellow tiger, of which there was only one known to exist on the entire planet.

Also, Adam was whiter than the more tan He-Man.

HellTrack

You know, I've never noticed that.

Groucho

What's going on?

Red Dog

I can't remember....did he always carry the sword around, so he would be ready at a moment's notice? You'd think that would be a giveaway.

Lt Ripley

The people on He-Man's planet, including his enemies, were quite daft.

Just because we didn't see other green tigers doesn't mean there aren't any.

HellTrack

Well, I think that if there were more tigers like Cringer, we would have seen them. We saw a multitude of humans. We saw more than one of Orko's race. So, I think that if there were more of Cringer's "people", we would have seen them.

HellTrack

I've always thought about that. It always showed him pulling it from his back underneath his shirt. Maybe it's sort of magical and shrinks down so he can hide it underneath his clothes and extends when he has to use it. Like the sword from Thundercats.

We are still talking about his sword, right?

I think the tapes released last week of He-Man's phone conversations revealed there were others ... 60 Minutes had audio clips of him telling Cringer " ... don't come to my castle. Don't bring green tigers and don't come."

It was a series designed to sell toys to 8-year-old boys. I doubt anyone cared about the feasibility of his secret identity.

GuessWho

With a pink vest, furry purple briefs (with matching boots, of course) and fantastic lavender tights... the kingdom had plenty of rumors about Adam, but none were about He-Man.

Red Dog

I wonder what kind of hat he would have worn at the Derby.

PhantomStranger

They must have slipped steroids into the water supply on Eternia, virtually every character could have been a professional bodybuilder.
