I have a She-Ra... A real She-Ra not Nate Stevenson's Bastardization. It's the masterverse She-Ra that was a bit cheaper on ENTERTAINMENT EARTH due to her package being FUBAR... aka not Meent!
So, I got a Masterverse She-Ra... He-Man's twin sister and defender of the Crystal Castle... we need a Masterverse Adora... right now I'll even take a Nate Stevenson's Bastardization of Adora to go with Revelation Adam.
So let's begin!
Articulation
She-Ra is as articulated as Sarah Michelle Gellar's Bad Teela who was replaced by Melissa Benoist for the sequel to Revelation. The maind difference is that She-Ra has longer hair and it can get in the way a little bit. I do have a nitpick here... her torso articulation breaks up the flower crest on her. Instead of making a new torso that had the articulation at the waist and sacrifice the underboob cut, they chose poorly and broke her crest and it looks bad.
I know this complaint should have been on that paint and scuplt section but, the issue here is not the sculpting it's the articulation overriding the sculpting. It moves well, but it's aesthetically unpleasant.
4.5
Paint and sculpt
The figure looks decent. Sadly she has this mouth breathing sculpted expression. I already mentioned the armor issue, but she has an additional issue. She had painted on details that ahouldve been sculpted in her boots and bracers... but wait, there's more! Soft goods cape leeches color unto her skirt. Think we're done here? Nope! It's Chuck Testa! Her carmored crest doesn't match from the tips on her breast piece with the bottom soft plastic part of her outfit. Then let's throw in that my shield came with messed up paint from the factory...

Accessories
Extra head inspired by art from the vintage toy.
Extra soft goods cape based on Nate Stevenson's Bastardization.
2 extra hands
Sword
Shield
Not seeing the value on this being a deluxe figure.
3.0
Overall
She-Ra gets a disappointing 3.17 as her final score. It looks like they not only didn't learn from the mistakes made with MOTUC She-Ra, but decided to make new ones in addition of repeating most of them. But if Glimmer and Bow are made, you KNOW I'm getting them.
