She-Ra Princess of Power: Extra Material
The
Briefest Appearance In All Etheria
As
far as cameo appearances go, the She-Ra Princess of Power
series had many.
Netossa's appearance in Assault On The Hive is a good example, as
is Vultak's from
Above
It All.
These both allowed their respective characters brief speaking
roles, whereas
silent and briefer-than-brief cameos graced the linkes of Leech
in The
Peril of Whispering Woods,
Imp in He-Man
and She-Ra: A Christmas Special and Flutterina in the Season Two
episode
The
Perils Of Peekablue.
However,
out of all of the ones listed above, no sudden appearance can
beat one that many
seem to miss - and could be forgiven for doing so. The character
Dylamug, never penned for
release as a figure by Mattel first appeared in Duel at Devlan, a very early Season
One episode.
The character made no further appearances until the very late
second season episode Shades Of
Orko,
as one of Shadow Weaver's henchmen - or so it was thought. He did,
in fact, leave his
mark one more time on the series in an appearance that lasted a
total of 48 frames or, to put it
more directly, less than two seconds!
Existing
at the very back of the screen in admittedly one of the rarest
She-Ra episodes, Dylamug
clearly was not part of the script to The Inspector, the episode fortunate
enough to include
The Briefest Appearance In All Etheria. He basically appears due
to his part in Duel at Devlan, where
he and a load of Horde Troopers attack a village on Glonders,
vehicles designed especially for
that episode. These vehicles would reappear in such forthcoming
episodes as The Wizard,
Friends
Are Where You Find Them and The Bibbet Story, but who would have
thought that the
director, Bill Nunes, would miss the fact that part of the stock
footage taken from Duel at Devlan
also featured a character clearly not intended to appear!
Watch for yourself as:
1) She-Ra gets ready to
slice-and-dice a Glonder in typical stock-fashion.
2) Dylamug makes that
illusive appearance behind the oncoming vehicle
3) The machine is
destroyed and Dylamug is left only to vanish as mysteriously as
he appeared
