Skeletor: release me you man boob!! |
Articulation
For the sake of fairness I will try to remain as impartial as possible but articulation is one of the things that this figure does pretty good. I may hate the idea, I may hate the way some things are executed, but this figure has a decent range of articulation. I cannot deny that. It has less articulation then I Classics figure but more than a 200X.
Think 200X with elbow, knee, ankle, and wrist hinge articulation. If this section sounds familiar it's because I straight-up copied and pasted it from the He-man review. There is nothing else I could say about articulation on these figures that I hadn't already said.
3.5
Skeletor: 38 years later and the half swords still don't work. Neitlichdammit! |
Paint and sculpt
He looks Vintage-ish... aside the I got kicked in the Skelenards face. The teeth look weird to me because I'm not quite sure if the Lines line up with the sculpt. Then there's too much red on his eyes and he kind of looks like he's surprised rather than angry. And his open mouth kind of looks like he's whining instead of being menacing.
4.0

Skeletor: Dramatic Pose!!!! |
Oranges Skeletor gets a 3.33 as his final score. Honestly I still don't like the figures, but I must admit that I still kind of want to have a few key characters:
Teela, Beastman, Man-at-Arms, Evil Lyn, Trap Jaw, Tri-Klops, Stratos, Merman, Ram Man, Sorceress, Adam, She-Ra, Orko, King Randor, and Queen Marlena.
I know it's far too many especially for a line that I don't like but that's like the core core roster and a She-Ra.
Notice that I said kind of want I didn't say I want want. My want wants would be Teela, Evil-Lyn, She-Ra, Man-At-Arms, Beastman, and MAYBE Trap Jaw and Merman... and even with this culled list I'm still thinking of culling it even more.
No idea what Faker's sculpt will look like. |
