Meet the Voice of She-Ra, Melendy Britt, at Retro Con 2019!
Though we were saddened to announce her cancellation for our show last year, we are pleased to re-add her to our guest list for this year: Please welcome Melendy Britt to Retro Con 2019!!
Melendy is best known for giving voice to one of the most iconic and empowered female characters of the 1980’s:
She-Ra, Princess of Power!!
Adora was originally a captain in the army of the Horde, a sinister group that rules over planet Etheria. Adora later discovers she is the long lost twin sister of Prince Adam of Eternia (aka He-Man), having been kidnapped as a baby by the Horde’s leader Hordak.
Renouncing her allegiance to the Horde and now vowing to defend Etheria, Princess Adora is granted the Sword of Protection. This gains her the power to transform into… She-Ra!
“For the Honor of Grayskull… I am She-Ra!”
Melendy voiced the character of She-Ra/Princess Adora throughout the show’s entire 93 episode run, plus TV specials. She also voiced other characters on the show such as Castaspella, Mermista, Catra, Octavia, and more!
You may have heard Melendy in other cartoons as well, such as G1 Transformers, Plastic Man, The New Adventures of Batman, Flash Gordon, and Avatar: The Last Airbender!

We have something very special to add to our 2017 show raffle. The voice of Skeletor, Mr. Alan Oppenheimer, was kind enough to get this MOTU Classics He-Man figure autographed by the voice of He-Man himself: Mr. John Erwin!!
The figure is sealed in package and was released last year by Matty Collector. It was made to resemble He-Man’s appearance on the classic He-Man and the Masters of the Universe cartoon series by Filmation, in which John Erwin provided the voice for the titular character.
