WOW! What great figures. I was a little concerned about what I would be getting concerning the QC of these figures what with all the crappy mistakes in the DC Universe Classics but I was pleasantly surprised when I got them out of the packages.

This is what the MOTU line needed. These figures are incredible and look to be right off the screen in perfect articulted goodness. He-Man also came with a second half sword that I assume will combine with another half that will come with Skeletor, nice. The articulation is perfectly balanced between sculpt and playability which I think is the main problem with the Marvel Legends line. The accessories that came with both He-Man and Beast Man are perfect depictions of the classic toys and fully enhance their display ability.

Even though I am leaning towards a more uniformed 3 3/4" scale, these figures are a no-brainer if you are a MOTU fan. Overall, I felt like I was 5 years old all over again and even my wife was transported back to a better time.

I just got mine in yesterday as well and I was especially impressed with Beast-Man.

This was the first time I ordered from Mattycollector and I was severely disappointed by how the figs were packed in the shipping box. The were squeezed in there and were a little dinged up.

Yeah I forgot to mention that. I find that ironic that its a site devoted to collectors yet they pack the items like its nothing special. Its in their name for heavens sake!!

Dear Matty,

You might have the worlds larges Mattel toy collection and have been collecting since the dawn of time but you sure have a thing or two to learn about selling online. Start on eBay then move onto selling on a collectors website.

Sincerely,
The Collectors of the world

For the price I wish the figure came with a case like a star case or what Hasbro has been doing lately.

Granted that would be nice but I tell ye, breaking these figures out and actually getting to "play" with them is the best!

You could always just build a mock AFA case for them relatively cheap but then you are missing the best part about having a perfect MOTU line.
