No mate. I was saying He-Man and Skeletor were great figures despite the Mattel heads and that Man-At-Arms is one of my fave ever figures. I'm not agreeing with you 'completely' at all. Maybe partially. A smidgey bit. Where did I swear? Is hell a swear these days? lol. I nearly used the F word instead before I caught myself. I'm trying to use the worse words less these days because my kid called me out for a being a bit of a potty mouth some time ago. lol.

Man-At-Arms has the same problem. His head is too small for his body. They explained at some point that this was the Revelations style when defending it. It's why the New Eternia figures have more properly sized heads (or at least seem to). All of the reviews talked about this for He-Man, Skeletor, and Man-At-Arms (along with Evil-Lyn's lack of a neck).

That's weird. Never had any issue with my Lyn. It's Teela who has a 'lack of neck' which is why I tend to have her head not sat all the way down on the peg. Just enough to be secure and turn but not enough to click all the way down. Only thing I hated about Lyn was the bag strap wouldn't stay on her shoulder properly but my mate showed me how to 'unglue' the fur collar a bit and slide the strap under there which makes it more accurate anyway lol I want more Lyn. I want the 'classic' Lyn from the first episode. I want sultry Bat-Lyn when Skeletor makes her the Sorceress. I want meaty God-Lyn when she takes the power of Grayskull. And I want the final Lyn who my mate just told me is refered to as 'Liberated' on some model sheet thing. So aye Liberated Lyn. All the Lyns. I have the money. lol. Oh and Teela as Sorceress. She looks sweet. And the original Sorcy too.

I will agree with you that MOTUC never made a good "normal" He-Man or Skeletor. All of my MOTUC Skeletors use custom heads. But I think this New Eternia version looks pretty good.

Aye I think the Barbarian Skeletor looks fine if you're having it as a 'Classic' Skeletor. The goatee 'demo man' head and the bulky cape armour don't do anything for me. And I may get it just to be a classic to have it in the same style as my Rev Skels like himself from another universe or whatever. That's the in-thing these days ain't it? Multiverses. lol. Long past the point where studios and companies though multiple versions of the same character would 'confuse the audience' (though I must admit I had a friend who seemed convinced The Dark Knight was a follow up to the 1989 Batman and wondered how the Joker survived his fall from the church. I even saw both movies with the guy so I know he saw them, I just can't imagine how he convinced himself both films are in any way the same continuity lol), now they got multiple versions all being in the same film like No Way Home. lol.
