Hmmm... judging by what we can see of course, they don't look bad. I'll likely buy them as I love original He-Man designs, as long as they aren't more that $25 each. They kinda spoiled me with the $15 Origins series that looks so freaking good and has great articulation for the design.

I see where the heads can look small, I'm hoping that will not be the case once I hold one. Either way, the Origins line is killing it so this is a take it or leave it really.

Bring on the show you slow fuckers!

I will definitely need to see that He-man and Evil-lyn in person first. But I know I'm definitely getting Moss Man regardless. I doubt he is but I still hope he's pine scented.

Problem solved.

I might get Evil-Lyn, but He-Man and Skeletor have bizarre proportions (is it the heads? Is Skeletor's too small) and seem like easy passes.

Maybe they will look better when more images are revealed.

These are only for the new show. The Masterverse line will be comprised of many different styles of figures including the rumored continuation of Classics style figures. The entirely of wave 1 is devoted to the new show, though. I love them all and even over Classics. Not a big fan of the Classics line. I admire it more for the huge size of the line, but I'm not a big fan of the base figure most of them used.

I like the look of Mossman.

Probably means I'll like characters that didn't get much airtime in the Filmation series, Sy-Clone, Roboto, etc... assuming (hopefully) those characters show up in this series.

Wow, never even heard of these before seeing this thread. As others said, some of them have strange proportions, but I think the detail looks great.

Roflol. The fact you are being serious makes you even more funny. Thanks for the laugh.

All these lines show me one thing. Nothing will ever beat Masters of the Universe classics. For me at least, and I guess many if eBay prices are a judge.

Classics is good, and it hits the nostalgia well, but the nostalgic fan base is getting older. We’re gonna start enrolling in Medicare and needing to stretch our retirement dollars to the max. Mattel (and Hasbro and other toy-based fandoms) really need to start building the next generation of fandoms or else these lines will go extinct after the GenXers go. Sadly, the translation from the 80’s into the 202x’s so far has been met with mediocre success. I hope my grandkids and their kids get to enjoy TMNT and He-Man, but not just by reruns from the 1980’s.
