The show design looks pretty awful, but the figures look good. I didn't realize they'd do another line since they seem to be hammering the Origins line pretty hard right now. He-Mans head looks a little small/derpy in the pic but it's hard to tell.

Whoever they get to play Skeletor, he better be a nasally cackler like Alan Oppenheimer.

He's doing the Kevin Smith MOTU show. No cast announced for the kids CGI show.

So, Mattel is doing the Hasbro route with TF, not just toys, but media for different demos. |

These figures look weak. They have no muscles.

Maybe a little stylized for my taste, they remind me of the 200X figures, but for me it's okay, I hope don't get disappointed with the QC and distribution of this line, like I got with Origins. 🤞

Correct. The Kevin Smith show, Revelations, is a direct continuation of the Filmation cartoon. I remember hearing the 1st episode acts as a series finale of sorts to the cartoon, and then the show deals with the aftermath of that. We've seen nothing from it yet other than the voice cast.

Love them. Love how different they are and I can see fudging some with classics. |

That Evil-Lyn figure looks like she belongs in Avatar.

The figures don't look that good, but this is Mattel we're talking (outside of the occasionally decent WWE figures). If you're going to do it got to up the detail and quality, not digging this particular style. Everyone is bringing back their universes to milk the aging collector.

the proportions are definitely off. lots of muscle bound characters/figures/statues have gotten the peanut head treatment lately. If you shaved he-man's head it would be 2/3rds the size of the shoulder joint.
maybe less. 200x had the same problem. |

Hope I can just put a Classics head on that He-man. I would be putting the helmet head on Evil-lyn anyway and Skeletor is alright. Not mindblowing but good. At the least Battlecat will work great as an alternative to the Classics version which has become pretty expensive on the aftermarket. Now I just need to see how well Moss Man is executed.

Passing on these is super easy, barely an inconvenience...

Hmmmm...derpy. Not what I expected at all.
I thought evil Lynn was some male character until I saw the extra head. Looks like Drizzt from D&D. |

I feel like if I pass on these, it'll be like when I passed on the new She-ra figures from the Netflux cartoon and now they're hundreds of dollars.

I never realized there were going to be two completely different MOTU shows coming to Netflix. I'm fine with the stylistic differences, but I'm not sure how I feel about having two shows going at once. Almost seems like way too much MOTU for it's own good.

It's infuriating that they half-assed the toylines for the excellent She-Ra reboot but it looks like they're going all in for this.
