However vintage MOTU and MOTU Origins & Sister Lines have always been billed as 5.5 inches, (139.7 mm), never 6 inch. That is 1/16 scale versus 6 inch (152.4 mm) 1/12 scale. Unless I'm missing something? This is from the Mattel Shop and it states 5.5 inch scale in the Title and below in the Product Details. Maybe they are advertised somewhere else in a different way and I missed that?

One thing I did forget to mention is that Mondo will also be releasing a 6 inch MOTU line, but they will be pricey and may skew more towards 200X designs.

That's interesting, because regardless if Mattel is advertising their Origins or Cartoon Collection Masters line as: 6" or: 5.5"... It doesn't matter, because BOTH are wrong.

I've got He-man Origins and He-man Cartoon Collection in front of me right now and I'm measuring them as we speak.

You say the manufacturers claim 5.5", but in reality; the Origins is closer to: 6", and the Cartoon Collection is just over: 6".

All in all there is about a cm (almost half an inch in difference). (Sadly I can't post a photo because I don't use any websites where I could upload one too).

Anyway... Regardless... Better sizing wouldn't hurt for some of us who would like it.
