It's a magical time.
Man-at-arms and Prince Adam are designing a spy satellite to keep an eye over Skeletor.
Why they have to put such a massive investment into what seems to be a meaningless task is beyond me.
Skeletor makes most of his plans within his own castle, And he honestly just doesn't seem like the kind of guy you have to worry about all that much.
Sure he attacks every other day, but he's never successful.
If anything the spy satellite (ship whatever it is )would make more sense with Hordak. He was She-Ra's respective arch-nemesis.
He's a bit more of a threat and the people of Eternia don't really know what to do with him.
But it doesn't matter.
The Spy satellite is only here so orko can get himself stuck in it and somehow end up on the planet Earth (if but for a few minutes).
There he'll learn about Christmas from some kids and then upon returning to Eternia (via Symantec teleportation brought on by a weird stone*) he'll for some reason bring the kids back too. Which will lead to a strange alliance between Skeletor and Hordak to kidnap the children for some weird robot Overlord guy.
No I don't know what the robots deal is.
Why he wants these kids or why he would hire the two buffoons to get them is beyond me. But whatever we need something to push along the plot and we need an excuse for Skeletor to be semi nice during the Christmas season.
I wasn't paying too much attention to this while it was on. I was trying to fix a malfunctioning hard drive, so I had this on in the background.
I will say I did turn my head to actually watch it from time to time. Usually whenever Skeletor his miniouns where rambling on about something.
I'm kind of surprised at how chalant everyone is about meeting up. I get that She-Ra and He-Man have interlinked universes and all, but you don't have crossovers that often. You think they'd make a bigger deal about it.
*They should have devoted more time to the stone.
Maybe get Prince Adam involved in part of the adventure and have She-Ra fighting the ''Beast monster'' a bit more.
You know, make it a find the MacGuffin story.
Yeah it wouldn't be very Christmassy.
But the original film wasn't much of a Christmas story either.
It only got brought up anytime somebody was talking to Orko and he said Merry Christmas and then everyone said; ''What the heck is that?'' Except for Prince Adams mother who apparently is from Earth.
News to me!
