As Threat said, they're homage figures. The Four Horsemen Studios (the creators of these figures) do a lot of sculpting work for Mattel (the owners of Masters of the Universe) and now Super7 (on their Masters of the Universe Classics line). They've been around for a long time and have a lot of connections and friends in the industry. I'm almost certain that they ran the homage figure ideas by someone at some point who said it was okay. They wouldn't mass produce these figures if they thought they'd be sued. They always first release these Masters of the Universe homage figures at the annual Power-Con He-Man conventions (the first was an orc in the colors of Man-At-Arms, these two were the second set, and the third set for this year are a Battle Cat and Evil-Lyn homage).
