It Came from the Toy Chest: With Less clothes and a dye job!

Blonde Bikini Teela from the DC Comics version of Masters of The Universe has made it into the MOTUC line! Now she is called: Battleground Teela and she's Teela: The Sorceress' apprentice.
She wear that while going to the Eternian Polar Ice cap... Either she is tough or stupid...
Well here she is!

Notice something strange? Underboob Bikini Teela has bent one of her "metal" cups with her boobs of "steel"!
Let me get that fixed...
Ok now that I've fixed that Here's what we got... An incredibly lightweight figure with two cool looking accessories!
Now I'll get unto the scoring pat of the review and blah blah blah 1= bad 5 = good...

Articulation:
She's got a different body than the average MOTUC Female... More on that on the paint and sculpt section. This new body brings some differences in Articulation.
She has a REAL waist twist! Due to the naked Torso she doesn't have the underboob articulation that other female figs have... There is no Ab Crunch. (I think I'm the only person who enjoys female figs with Ab crunch...)
She also lost the "weird thigh rotating pseudo ball joint" that Fem buck 1.0 has.
3.5


Paint and Sculpt:
The Horsemen did a great job on this 2.0 body Teela's face resembles the previous Teela while looking a tad Older... (Is it just me or does she look like she's bored and was wishing she was somewhere else... kinda like Kristen Stewart...)
Paintwise She's too hard to screw up. Minimal paint applied where needed. Not too fond of the Reddish hints in her hair... Looks a tad sloppy... (I'll probably paint her hair in a reddish brown color...) For some reason her arms and hands are a tad gummy, not Catra hand cummy, but almost there...
4.0

Accessories:
She's got a Sword and a Blaster inspired by the DC Comic. The sword looks a lot fatter than her comic counter part and her gun looks larger than her comic book counterpart... I should dock some points for being inaccurate. On the other hand the sword is so elegant with it's simplicity that it makes Teela's normal sword look too fancy/elaborate... CRAP! I just shot down my pro-200X argument!
Her gun is designed for her right hand. She can use it in her left hand, but on her right hand fits better (due to a notch for her thumb...)
4.0

Overall: 3.83
She's a pretty good figure, but personally she's not Teela for me... Unlike most of you I will have her as The Goddess (with Teela's extra Snake head) while I'll repaint her hair with a reddish color for Normal Teela... So she looks like an Adult version of 200X Teela minus the Anime Hyper detail... Need to figure out how to make removable shoulderpads...
