[@shannonfreeman2024]

My favorite one of all time

[@rodster6campingprepper]

Great to see more NA in the line, hope we get the whole set.

[@bluestripetiger]

I'd love to see Mike Young Prod do a reboot of New Adventures of He-Man with very clear plotlines that establish the connection between Eternia and He-Man's adventures in space.

[@justinclark397]

Supposedly season four of the 2002 series was going to be an adaptation of the New Adventures. According to the notes left behind when Scott from Spectre Creative worked at Mattel.

[@jeevesosiris]

Looks really great I gotta say

[@Cavillier1970]

Hey Dan had a thought when you got to the head scuplts, maybe they made it this way because it was to differenate between the original/classics look to He-Man and the NA's look to him. I know folks will realize we're talking 2 different series/ 2 different He-Man's but I'm thinking maybe the 4 Horsemen wanted to give NA He-Man his own original facial scuplt & look and not fall back on the classics look.

[@ReviewUltimate1]

I prefer the head sculpt (the one whit the ponytail)on this one rather than the original.

[@Buffyfan04]

I appreciate your reviews, as a subscriber to Club Eternia, these allow to see what I'm receiving. I've enjoyed every figure so far - but that also could be my age - I'm a younger collector of the toys, so beyond the Filmation Cartoon and vintage toyline - which was my introduction, each character is new to me as these are introduced.

[@soggyhydrox]

sweet figure New Adventures is a fun cartoon I really enjoy it. Hope we get a NA Skeletor all armored up

[@DEATH111183]

see now as far as vintage figures goes, i'm suprised they went with this one, granted i've long awaited it, i would almost expect a redux package of stone-dar and rock-or before this one, thought i must say, i anxiously await their classics update, if and when they're ever made

[@MM9497]

In fact, in both the first mini-comic and the first episode of the cartoon series, the sword is different before Adam even leaves Eternia. The mini-comic at least provides explanations for why He-Man and Skeletor look different (as well as a glimpse of a nifty techno-Sorceress).

[@battlearmordad]

This will be the default He-Man on my shelf. Head sculpt may not be perfect but it's still closer to the 1982 original, the wrists are great, and finally-- pants! Also if HM untied his golden locks he would have a most righteous mullet.

[@DarkLiger]

This the He-man variant I've been waiting for. I've always felt New Adventures got a lot unfair hate.

[@r.josedefraga1205]

I agree, if Jetlag at least did what the minicomics for the New Adventures line did, and bridge the visual aesthetic of old to new, I think NA wouldn’t have been as hated. They also should have had more than just Skeletor, He-Man, and Sorceress in regards to original characters. Zodac for instance would have been welcomed!

[@pegasuslb]

Nice figure! Would have been nice in the energy shield was more detailed.

[@hectorsalinasisback]

Maybe they will make a version of He-Man from the live action movie starring Dolph Lundgren? I kinda liked his costume in that movie.

[@SPac316]

Yeah, I didn't get into the New adventures 'cause by that time I got into the TMNT. Anyway, this is cool though. I now wonder if they could make a varient base on the late 80's He-Man movie or the 200X cartoon series.

[@Xamot1980]

That figure will look sweet on my shelf. Selling that fight foe man crap the moment it gets here in the mail.

[@Rodimus75]

I really like the new head/face sculpt! The one on the first He-Man looks kinda Neanderthal by comparison. The best thing about this figure is the new articulation in the wrists! Being able to hold the sword aloft at an angle is fantastic for posing!!!

[@montoyag76]

Actually kinda want this one

[@J_Lee712]

On my get list. Hope get surprised cause my Birthday is 3 days prior. If not I have a toy show to check out. I do wonder how well he can hold say Frosta or Teela wirh the Armor.

[@cobra1xtz]

A new adventure HE MAN! *screams like little girl*

[@JohnnyREB1977]

Didn't think so lol. Thanks, Dan

[@white8crow]

This guy isn't too bad. I'm going to purchase him. I have some of the old New Adventures guys, but I think the hate that came with these guys in the past was for multiple reasons. First, they weren't to scale with the originals. Secondly, they weren't sculpted very well and felt rather cheap when in hand, although the articulation was better. Third, they really lost that fantasy feel, even though He-Man still got his power from magic.

[@Spookyghosthero]

I like this figure and design better then the normal he-man

[@jduttskywalker]

You know I kinda think the head on the Galactic He-man definitely resembles Dolph Lundgren

[@TheLizardmonkey]

Incredibly awesome and I could easily live with this being the design for a new movie He-Man.

[@superjoe7]

Hey Pixel Dan you have the wrong opening for this video!!! its the snake mountain version!!!!

[@Rustyjamesman]

this is awesome!

[@T0m0zuki]

That guy came directly from Quake 1 :)

[@davecinelli1068]

This is what killed the toy line back in the 80's. Not so much because He Man went Galactic or his NEW "Flash Gordon" haircut, but because it was totally incompatible with the original line up. They were downscaled/downsized to the 'Star Wars/G I Joe' scale, that was the killer.

[@michaelautrey6641]

i think the emblem on the belt is an h and m.

[@jfcommander16]

I want them to make skeletor next :) im a sucker for skeletor figures

[@luisquinonez4086]

i love this piece cant wait to buy him i love the new head sculpt

[@1dteyoung]

that looked awesome when you had him posed pulling his sword out

[@roderickpass]

this new he-man head almost looks like a repaint of the DC universe superman

[@GavinAttitudeStrike]

I like the shirt,is Bog-Nar a concept? I'd buy 2 lol.

[@MatthewWheeler1980]

OMG Dude this He-Man is amazing! He's going to replace my current He-Man when I get him! Also since this was the original concept for Dare, you can display him with King He-Man as KH's son! EPIC WIN ALL AROUND!

[@eshaw2115]

Now it would be great if they reissued Starship Eternia.

[@bjpalm1994]

Heck Yeah!! I know this is kind of a low point in the He-Man series but dang it if that is not a cool looking figure! I remember having the original in your comparison shots and he came in a 2-pack with Flogg (Hope they make him too). One of my favorite figs back in the day and I can't wait to pick him up! Great review as always Dan!

[@MonsterXQuattro]

This figure is so good,makes me feel almost guilty that I hate new adventures(well,the uk comic wasnt bad)

[@OzzieAstaroth]

Nice, really been looking forward to this figure for some time. I had the vintage figure, but never really liked the armor add on because it looked too clunky. Plus he never used it in the show. Also with the vintage figure, the sword would often snap off at the handle, which was a big problem. I'm glad this figure could finally be made to give NA He-Man a better look.

[@dnicks0722]

It's figures like these that make me sad I didn't sub this year.

[@JohnnyREB1977]

Very very nice He-Man variant. I may actually have to get it. I do have a question about NA He-Man, though. Has there ever been an explanation as to why the sword changes?

[@angelguardian95]

is bow in the body, well finaly they made it

[@halfmanhalfmetal]

This is the one time the Classics version is shinier than the vintage.

[@dubuyajay9964]

Only one?

[@maybetoby]

Unpopular opinion: this is my favorite version of He-Man

[@kevsil616]

Awesome looking figure! My only gripe is the difference in the head sculpts between this one and the other He-man's depending on if we ever get a release or not this one most likely will in my continuity be Dare and not He-man himself (hey according to Scott New Adventures was supposed to be based on Son of He-man before it was re-worked)

[@brandonforleo4745]

I got the vintage new adventures heman today at a small local comiccon

[@jgsahe]

his left cheek it looks different to right cheek.

[@vLeroyJenkinsX]

Nice review Mandalorian30. Their is one thing I wanted to ask you realting to your masters of the universe classics reviews comparsion times. Have you ever considered reviewing the masters of the universe 200x figures.

[@Dragonrider1227]

I never liked NA He-Man. Never liked the concept. But I have to say, that is a COOL figure!

[@bubby14]

WHY COULDN'T THIS BE THE JUNE FIGURE?!?!?!?!

[@fwf1981]

just ordered this

[@adejareojo]

Any She-Ra Action Figures?

[@masterfarr8265]

is the shoulder strap removable

[@Ghostly1989]

July 15th is my Birthday XD

[@dwightjohnson6674]

Dwigy Jre

[@Sl33pingLionheart]

So far my favorite figure in this line was Fisto, but now I think I found a new favorite!

[@lewisnield8565]

Dan take a look at this figures body and compare it to Bow's. They are slightly different Bow has a longer neck and the paint and crotch pieces are not the same

[@mikelnator]

I just got mine in mail today ! Great figure ! Nice paint job on mine !

[@tylerpauls5835]

Why does this video have the Skeletor intro? I don't remember Galactic Protector He-Man Joining Skeletor.

[@sliggy5000]

Hey Dan, what's up with He-Man's jaw?

[@acezanders1715]

@pixeldan is all of the stories and lore from the bios in any reading form or video ? really interested in the story@pixeldan is

[@EchoBR7]

Jamie Lannister

[@FinalPhoenix151]

Not a fan of the bio. "Permanently becomes He-Man" The transformations were the true magic and joy of the shows when we were kids.

[@tycondrius23]

holy crap you got a sample on already !! nice can't wait for his release. really looking forward to getting one !

[@brunobliss]

my god, fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinally one of my most wanted figures made it into the classics! I feel we are one step closer to Laser Power He-Man now!

[@chiclone-tests71]

Synthol-He-Man... You can tell this by the fact, that his bizeps dont change, when the arm is streched... :D

[@MistaJonz]

I might be one of the few people that LOVES the NA series. I have to get this. Awesome review as always!

[@CommanderOfTheSun]

This is the figure I've been waiting for! So awesome. I'm gonna get two.

[@TheVarietyMix]

Awesome review Dan! I've really liked what they have done with these new classics but I had forgotten about The Adventures Of He-Han. So this quite interesting to see that they are making classics out these.

[@Rustyjamesman]

just ordered mine :)

[@radarlovedr]

those wrist joints are the same as the origional bersion of this figure from the early 90's. so thats a nod as well.

[@monstarwolfenstein]

Ohhh Now I can't wait for Skeletor, both of em'

[@jrimme]

Not bad @ all. I'm sold :) gr8 review btw PD

[@SirJustice316]

Dan, what other figures were released in the New Adventure line aside from hydron and flip shot? just the galactic guardians. i missed this one :(

[@halfmanhalfmetal]

+SirJustice316 Slush Head was released with He-Man in a 2 pack. Cool figure.

[@jboypacman]

I really like this figure! Am glad to see New Adventures He-Man getting some more love from Mattel.

[@joeblevins1061]

2:22 It's Big McLargehuge!

[@hectorsalinasisback]

Any word yet when Mattel will be making a He-Man from the 1987 film Masters of The Universe starring Dolph Lundgren?

[@kingfiggaz]

Hector Salinas finally done

[@TheRealOzMuerte]

ME TOO!! *LOL*

[@elvnsword]

is it me or is his head a smidge too small?

[@Liquidazot]

This is Ranger from QUake 1

[@redneckbill445]

No.

[@benmoreland5771]

As a toy line it was awesome. As a countinatuon of He-Man it sucks.

[@nazaxprime]

ShRRRReaded!
