I realized that some people who visit here might not know who I am, not being an artist its kind of hard to have a body of work to point to. So I will now bore you with a small bio:
My name is Mark Vasquez, I own Fantastic Plastic Toys. If you have ever frequented the Masters of the Universe world you might know me as markatisu on the he-man.org board where I am a Supermod and have been in the Administrative structure for over 10 years. I also have accounts on Rangerboard and some other message boards but all under the same name. You can find me on eBay under the username isujill where I am a power seller and have been in good standing since 2000.
Its a common misconception that markatisu means something or is a nickname, its literally Mark AT ISU (Iowa State University). I have degrees in History and Religious Studies and have been working in IT/Education related fields for over 12 years (Starting with the Department of Defense, and moving onto Education Institutes).
He-Man.org is actually where I met my artist Jazyl and Marty, friendships with both spanning nearly a decade. I also have many other friends in the toy and art industry.
So there you go, if you are in the he-man world you know my reputation is rock solid, if you look on eBay you will see the same thing. So while I do not possess much in the way of artistic talent like my friends I bring the “business” side to the equation via my store and my designs/plans.
As we get closer to the launch of the first figures I hope to hear from many of you and see what it is you want to see in Mystical Warriors of the Ring!
