    • Trivia
      The "Earth coordinates" shown on screen relate to the Filmation Studio address at the time of production, including street number, zip code, phone number and telex number.
    • Goofs
      The Laser Bolt toy vehicle makes it's only animated appearance. Obviously a request by Mattel, since the scene calls for a flying vehicle and this is a three wheeled road racer with no visible jet engines.
    • Quotes

      King Randor: What a celebration. The preparations have been going on for days.

      Queen Marlena: You know, it reminds me of how we used to get ready for Christmas at this time of year.

      King Randor: Christmas? What's that? An Earth holiday?

      Queen Marlena: A very special Earth holiday.

    Nostalgia's a helluva drug

    How do you bring Christmas to Eternia? Orko, naturally. Plus some kids that need to get back home; the plot's as trivial as you'd expect from a MOTU holiday special, but it has its moments. I've always been an Orko fan myself, and he fares the best of the impish '80s cartoon sidekicks. Then again, this is also just another excuse to hear Skeletor complain a lot, especially with his beef with Hordak.

    I have no memory of this as a kid, but it's cheesy fun as an adult. It received a whining appraisal by my 9 year-old too, so that's another plus.
