Advent Calendar 07: Teeny Weeny He-Man and Skeletor are Tiny


 In May, I was able to get a World's Smallest He-Man and Skeletor. In June, a 4 pack of He-Man, Skeletor, Battle Cat and Panthor were announced.... these are from the same folks that made the TMNT Tiny arcade. It's basically an Action Figure for my Action Figures. But the funny thing is that after these were released someone else made an even smaller figurine...

Mike: Why are these still on card?
Nefty-kun: These haven't come out of the Toy Chest yet, and I need to review them.
Mike: Do they pay you for that?
Nefty-kun: No... I actually do it for kicks... It's been over 13 years since I've started the blog and I haven't seen one red cent...
Mike: That's cause you suck at blogging...
Nefty-kun: OR, I have kept my Integrity and haven't whored myself out for the money...
Mike: Keep telling yourself that, dude!


Articulation
The package says 3 Points of articulation. Arms and head. The fact that they got articulation at this scale is amazing. Sadly, He-Man has a frozen left arm... Ain't gonna move it for obvious reasons.
4.5 due to He-Man having a frozen shoulder.
Nefty-kun: Have you noticed that Prince Adam sounds a lot like Leonardo?
Mikey: Nope! I ain't doing no Cam Clarke references here... I can do Townsend Coleman references though...
Nefty-kun: No, you won't yell "SPOOOOOOOOON!!"
Mikey: Geez! Calm down, Arthur!
Nefty-kun: That's it, you're outta here!!



Paint and sculpt
Sadly, this is not the best thing about these. Due to their size, perfect paintjobs are nearly impossible and due to their size, the armors look bad. (Too thick for the bodies. If it was scaled properly, the plastic would break by looking at it.)
4.5


Accessories 
He-Man has a clear stand, Power Sword, Shield, Axe, and a Tiny dagger that he can't properly hold.
Skeletor has a clear stand, Power Sword, Havoc Staff, and a Tiny dagger that he can't properly hold.

That dagger is going to be eaten by carpets...
5.0
Skeletor: Oh, Skeletor, you're so mighty! I can't resist your boneface!
Give in, He-Man and maybe I will give you a bigger bone for you to suck on!!
He-Man: What in the actual Fuck are you doing, Skeletor!?
Skeletor: Oh, I'm just managing expectations for Master of the Universe Revolution...
He-Man: Oh... dammit!
Skeletor: What, were you hoping that you and I... Gross!! We're related!
He-Man: No! I wasn't talking about Eterniabama... I mean, you DID try to marry your own daughter/clone of the Sorceress... I meant Oh, Dammit! As in Kevin Smith is going to butcher more of our Universe.
Skeletor: True dat...


Overall
4.67 for a pair of novelty items that work better in dioramas is a more than reasonable score. As you can see these guys scale great with Ultimates and MOTUC.
