hey guys me ho supersorrell thank you very much here look what i got it's the brand new
he-man masters of the universe brought to us by mattel and this is from the new netflix tv series
for kids and these are the power attack he-man master of the universe figures i've got the first
two in the line here this is obviously he-man and skeletor very excited to have both of these
in hand since getting these i've noticed that smith's now do have um evil in and a couple of
other characters um probably i don't know what i'm going to do yet with this line i haven't
decided whether i'm going fully not whether i just wanted the two you know skeletor and he-man
are always good to get no matter what the variant you know what i mean i love these two but i have
seen the r releasing like panthor and um battle cat panther i always want to say panther but i'm
always pretty sure that's a i'm pretty sure i say this every time every time i say pantho i think
the thundercats and i'm thinking that's pantora oh nevermind anyway minefield 80s minefield nostalgia
uh but yes we have hemant and skeletal so let's break them out of the packaging and take a closer
look at both of these awesome new figures i'm very excited to have them in hand guys
like i say i got these from smith's toys they were just uh 14.99 which i think is a
little on the expensive side i was hoping these were going to be 10 pounds but 15 apparently
which is the same price or it was originally the same price as origins
except this is a different this is like a more of a kid figure
so i think i would have heard these to be more about the ten pound line
especially if lana toys are able to release those um
aliens and stuff and predators at 10 pounds and they are much better action figures
you know what i mean if they're able to produce them for a tenner i'm pretty sure mattel can
produce these for tenno however let's take a look at the line first of all before making judgments
oh that stuff did not come out
so straight off the bat i can tell you that these automatically
feel like they're going for a modern take on the um original he-man style um
just from the feel of them alone the way they're like posed like with the knees bent and their arms
kind of bent with no articulation it feels like they're going for that classic he-man style but
they've just upgraded it for a modern audience and with with this they've gone with the small head
big body kind of thing very muscular looking very very nine like 80s 90s looking style of action
figure and to give it that nostalgic factor to be fair they have given him the the battle twist
which most figures had back in the day let's be honest half of our action figure box used to go
he does come with here's a sword as well i have the power and that has a little nub on the back
because there is a little hole in the back of he-man and you can go ahead and attach the
sword in so he can hold it on his back which is pretty cool you put that at an angle if you want
straight down off of sheer comedy valley go straight up and dive on your opponents like so
but yeah very cool um articulation let's have a look so ahead let me just remove the sword for a
thing head is on a can move left and right it can move up and down a little bit i don't think it's
meant to though i think i'm just playing with the plastic the arms do lift up and down uh hands have
got rotation in them those gauntlets are molded on it's obviously got that waist swivel twist action
that allows him to bend backwards and forwards a little bit as well there's no further way swivel
but the legs do lift forward to give a kick action as well as back quite far they do also
have display peg holes should you wish to use a display base with them um they are very top-heavy
to be fair you are going to have a little fun standing these you are going to stand them
like how you used to do back in the day we have to do one leg forward one leg back a little bit
and kind of lean them backwards upon themselves um the little heads are annoying me a little
bit the tiny little heads are a little bit pee-brainy um i like the fact that we've
got that articulation swivel on either side see it's not like one-sided so you can use
you can sort of make him attack from both sides which is nice if that makes sense so you can
swivel him that way and let go or swivel them that way and let go and it works either way
and i like the fact that the sword is ridiculously oversized as well this style though is very much
in keeping with that new animated series that they have given us on netflix which is aimed at um a
younger audience and i think that's a cool i think that's a good thing as much as i know a lot of
people hated on it when it got announced like oh my god the watering down he-man again but no i see
it more as it's introducing newer younger fans to a franchise which has been ongoing since the 80s
so i mean if they can get a fresh set of eyes on he-man that's just that's only good for the brand
surely and the fact that now i'm of this age it's a cartoon that i know i can comfortably watch with
my daughter if she wants to you know maybe see it and that's something i can sit and watch with
her without having to worry too much about what's in the programming if that makes sense let me pop
he-man on the desk cam though for now as we look at skeletal let's not forget we have skeletal here
as well guys skeletal looks badass i'm loving the chain around there around the waist um he's got a
bit of the big skull thing on the front here his big gauntlets he's even got gauntlets around his
legs with his nice like proper uh crowed style feet very cool and he even comes with like a
skeleton sort of hand here which has got like yellow chains around it and stuff and obviously
he comes with his staff as well which you can pop in his hand i've popped that in this hand i think
and he's also got the same twisty twist fighty action however his staff does not like that
across the desk but yeah he's got the same way swivel i won't bother with the articulation on
this one just because it is identical to he-man's we're just looking at the aesthetic but i do like
that face skull that is very cool so what we'll do now guys is we'll head on down to the desk
cam so you guys can get an up close personal look at both figures so let's head on down to the desk
all right guys so here they are out of the packaging stood side by side sworn enemies
of eternia let's pull these forward and take a look at the face gulps so first face cult is
he-man here there you see he's got a very small head by comparison to the rest of his body it's
very weird looking but i do like the aesthetic this just feels very nostalgic of the original
kind of concept to me um they're definitely not the quality of origins i'm i'm not gonna lie here
but i think for a kids toy they're a lot of fun i just think they really need to change that
price price point um whilst they are beautifully sculpted very nice figures i don't see adult
collectors getting these um or not many of us anyway i know i'm one of them and i like them but
i'm not sure if i'm part of a minority here um i think a lot of collectors will stick with
the origins line just because that is the line they had as kids and it's a recreation of that
whereas i think this is a new a new step but i think these should have been 10 pounds each
and i think we will see a lot of these in the bargain bins um the coming sort of february time
because they did they did have a lot of stock of these at smith's and that's not to say that
they won't sell out because i mean look at them they are beautiful i mean i don't want to jinx
this line here and say that it's complete trash because it's not it's me it's not made for me
it's made for kids and i do like a good toy so i have had a good little punt at them and i do like
them not sure if i'm going to continue the line or whether i'm just happy right now having he-man and
skeletal on my shelf and they'll have to create something pretty awesome next i think if they
were to reproduce scare glow in this style then definitely i would probably have a pun at that
one too so we'll just have to see what comes next i know they've already done evil lin and a couple
of others um based on the female characters from the program i'm i'm more interested in life if
they were to create scare glow or if they were to do uh moss man or you know some of the other cool
figures that i remember as a kid but either way that should not take away from how cool these
figures are they are absolutely amazing what are your thoughts guys let us know in the comments
