Masters of the Universe Origins Cartoon He-man Figure Review and Parts Swapping!

Review and Parts swapping of the new Masters of the Universe Origins wave 1 Cartoon He-man figure that was inspired from the 80s He-man and the Masters of the Universe Filmation Cartoon series.

[@Emolga6274]

. This is the figure we thought we had in 80s. Now 40 years later we finally get a cartoon accurate heman figure. Likeness is still little off. I’d say it’s 75% there .

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah, I agree! I remember getting the vintage He-man as a kid and watching the filmation cartoon. I loved them both. But I couldn't understand why my He-man figure didn't look like the filmation He-man that we got used to because of the design and seeing that character come to life in the cartoon then. But I think this is as good as it gets with a filmation style. Origins cartoon He-man figure. The next best thing would be the filmation Classics one. But that figure is doing something different.

[@Themanchlid]

The legs and body is a newer style or design they are trying for the Filmation figures now. I think in hand the Head looks better than the Mattel Creations Filmation He-man. It's not perfect. It's more a Filmation look that fits the Origins asthetics. The Super7 Filmation He-man is more Cartoon accurate and realistic to that animation for figures.

[@Emolga6274]

@@Themanchlidyea true the super 7 is the most accurate to the cartoon, but I think they were really trying to make his head cartoon accurate here aswell and it came out good , almost there

[@Themanchlid]

@@Emolga6274 Yes I think the head came out good for an Cartoon He-man in Origins.

I’m old as hell (47) geeking out watching my childhood favorite cartoon and figurine. Great review thanks for taking me back to simpler times. Very nostalgic, as a kid my mom couldn’t afford to buy me the figurines. Guess what I’m purchasing them now! 💯 🙌🏾

[@Themanchlid]

@djjllbc Thanks for watching and sharing childhood memories and enthusiasm for this line. I'm 50 now, so I know what you're talking about. I loved that Masters of the Universe 80s toy line and animation as a kid. It's amazing that this brand has come around full circle and going full steam ahead with better figure sculpts and articulation over those vintage figures. They are definitely all about the nastalgia👍

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for stopping in as always! Sorry for not doing that in this review. I get so much negitive feedback in the comments about the 40th Anniversary Body or head. Sometimes someone will ask me in the comments if I can try certain parts on a figure if and when I get it before I decide to review it. Then I will make a note and show that parts swap then. You can also message me at my Instagram. My profile name is manchild497. I can take a pick with a participar swap you want to see and post it on my profile or in private massage.

Of course, once I get a filmation Skeletor, I will try it again on him as well! But for now, it works perfectly on the new filmation asthetics for this He-man!👍

[@Shiva-Kumar138]

​@@ThemanchlidReally appreciate that you kept in mind & cleared my doubts. As a huge.. HUGE fan of Filmation Skeletor, I had to buy that Creations exclusive Skeletor 2 pack mainly for those different expressions face plate. That funny Skeletor face plate really sold on me.

Gotta say, the face sculpt on the actual figure looks way better than on the promotional images I've seen. No puckered lips.😆

[@Themanchlid]

Lol. Yeah, I think this filmation He-man face sculpt looks much better than that Mattel Creations one. It looks closer to the cartoon and has a cool design with the newer body now. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👍

[@TarkentonLarry-iu3qp]

The sculpt of the face has that intense look. I've always mentioned this before. I have always wanted a He-man figure that isn't smiling or puckering it's lips.

[@rickytoddbotelho9555]

Definitely interested in this line. Pre-ordered skeletor😂❤

[@Themanchlid]

I'm glad to hear you have interest in this line as well. I really like the new look and designs of these figures for the Origins line or to even mix in with those figures. I also look forward to getting Skeletor in the single card release. Thanks for watching and sharing your positive comments on this line. I hope to see more of these as well as the rest of the Vintage inspired Origins figures!👍

[@timmyv.4056]

Thanks for a great and thorough review! Appreciate your attention to detail Loving this new line. Such a great way to keep MOTU going. Would love a Man E faces in this line. Thanks again!

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks again for stopping in to check out the review! I didn't think I would get into this line. But once I got The He-man and Beastman in hand, I was hooked. I like to see filmation characters mixed in the Origins with very close looks or designs to that filmation cartoon. If the filmation figures are successful. I can totally see figures like Tri-Klops, Mer-Man, and Man E faces to come, to name a few.👍

[@hazeshiro2673]

Can't wait for the cartoon collection version of Prince Adam, with the "laughing" face.

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah, I think many collectors of this cartoon line really want that cartoon prince Adam figure. Thanks for checking out the review 👌

[@Gavriel2016]

this figure is so okay but i look some miss paint in he clothes

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching! I think the way he is painted goes back to the more simple designs and colors like the cartoon.

[@richardniellayug6576]

You didn't try the cartoon head swap with the 40th anniversary Heman body.

[@Themanchlid]

No. That's also another He-man body I usually bring in to swap parts. But I have heard so many negative comments on the body or He-man figure. I try to keep the video time down, too. It gets to the point where there's just too many parts to try.

[@charlesltk2099]

Kinda wish it include it's shield and battle axe, oh well is based from the animation.... Love his harness and the sheath.... I wondered if they gonna do Filmation She-Ra and Hordak as well....

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah, unfortunately, they only give those two swords. They are both really cool to have in the Origins. You can always use the regular He-man shield and axe like a show in the review. I would definitely think they will make a cartoon Hordak and She-Ra down the road in this line if it sells well. Thanks for watching 👌

[@Rocket1377]

He-Man didn't really use the shield or axe in the cartoon, so it wouldn't make much sense to include them. If you really want to display Filmation He-Man with those, just get an extra original He-Man figure for the accessories, he's pretty cheap now.

[@Themanchlid]

@@Rocket1377 Yeah I don't remember ever seen He-man with an axe or shield in the cartoon much. I think one episode he might have had them. I also just tried the Regular He-man Axe and shield in the review on this filmation one that looks good for cheap cost.

[@LarryGrigioni]

I love your reviews, expecially swapping parts. BTW, where can I get the vintage inspired HeMan head? I love it. Thanks

[@Themanchlid]

That's awesome! I appreciate that feedback. The parts swapping idea started with a few comments if I can try different things on certain figures when I first started reviewing. It's very time consuming to do that plus editing to cut the boring nonout like me dropping things and getting up to get stuff while the camera is going. I got that custom He-man head on ebay a long time ago. I haven't seen any other ones so far. But if you go on ebay and type in custom He-man Heads, you can see whats out there now!

[@LarryGrigioni]

@@Themanchlid thanks buddy. Keep going!

[@Themanchlid]

@@LarryGrigioni I'll certainly try buddy!👍

[@sunnyshine2215]

Great review! I enjoyed watching all the different part swapping. I’ll be honest, I may just cherry pick this line and keep them carded as they look awesome that way, but I am a vintage toy designs guy and will always prefer those designs over the simplified Filmation style.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching the reviews as always! Yeah I always try to mix and mash some parts between the figures that might be of interest to the customizers and yet keep the video as short as I can. Some of those part swapping videos can be over an hour long to try out every idea available. I'm also more for the vintage inspired Origins first. But I don't mind seeing the filmation figures and other cross over figures added to the line. I really like the looks and design of these figures. But I can certainly see certain people walking away or cherry picking at the line or certain figures. Only collect what you really like and support!👍

[@LVHAXOR316]

I hope they make alot of odd characters from the show that were never made as figures instead of just making the main characters all over again

[@Themanchlid]

I think if the line does well. We will continue to see the main characters first and then other filmation characters that haven't been done before in any of the MOTU lines yet. Thanks for checking the review out and sharing your thoughts 👌

[@somarriba333]

That is really cool. I'll need to make room for these Filmation figures. I'm at the point now where maybe I should just take ALL the accessories of all my Masterverse/Origins figures and keep those and sell the figures as loose. I don't need 10 He-mans. Just the one and dress him up like a Barbie.

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah I hear that! The collection gets crowed quick. I too have so many He-man figures. I guess it's good if they all have different setups like Regular, Battle Armor and Things like that. I also have so many accessories and parts. If you're gonna get into this filmation line, I see a lot coming! Make room!👍

[@rickbrunet2559]

I do like the head and body more than the classics I gotta say. Really well done

[@Themanchlid]

The New Head and Body for this Filmation He-man is very interesting. I think it's kind of cool. It makes the figure look a little larger, and the Parts mix well with The First release Origins body. Thanks for watching as always!👌

[@nexusjz]

do you have the link for the custom vintage-inspired head you're using on your Origins He-man figure?

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching! I bought that on ebay two years ago. I just looked and don't see any available now. There are other styles of He-man Heads. But not that one. I would look up Custom Origins He-man Heads time to time on ebay and see if anymore come up. I don't even know who the seller was than.

[@nexusjz]

@@Themanchlid thanks! I see the Oo-larr style heads that work better for Masterverse. But your Origins figure looks like the He-man of my childhood. Wish Mattel would have done this

[@gargermaxpower2408]

The overall figure looks excellent to me, but in my opinion, the shade of yellow in the hair is too light!!! It should be a mix of orange and ochre yellow, in other words, much darker! Then, in my opinion, He-Man would be perfect!

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking the review out! Yeah, they made some changes, or the figure isn't exactly color accurate to the filmation series with the tones in the hair and skin. It's still a cool He-man for the Origins line, though!👍

[@mariusbabii]

i got a good question to ask ya, on the box of the new Eternia Skeletor box, it shows him battling the snake men, aren't the snake dudes on his side, both are evil dudes, so why is old Skeletor doing battle with them,........strange, even evil-lyn is also shown battling the snake men,........marius(punk rules).

[@Themanchlid]

@mariusbabii I think the Snakemen on that box is there for two reasons. The first is to possibly hint they might be coming to the Masterverse series soon! The second reason is to show the battle between Skeletor and the Snakemen for the control of Snake Mountain. Skeletor and King Hisss are enemies. For the most part is you go back to the 2002 He-man and the Masters of the Universe cartoon.

[@colinmathura-jeffree9829]

Really love these. I want Beastman too.

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah, I'm really on board with this filmation line now that I got a couple in hand. The beastman looks incredible, even in card still! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts as always 👌

[@geffeternal741]

I don't think a lot bought that Freefriends thing. It's still available last time I checked. I got mine though. The alternate face expressions only came with that two packs 😊

[@Themanchlid]

No I definitely didn't want to spend that money on that pack. I just want the Skeletor. The single card one is coming in a couple months. Yeah that set is still up on Mattel Creations. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👌

[@whyldefyre6648]

Great review. Really looking forward to these filmation figures. I don't understand why the makers of action figures continue to use horizontal wrist hinges. There is so much more you can do with vertical hinges on gripping hands. The only hands that should have horizontal are fists. I don't get it. I wish they would flip the frequency and make horizontal hinges the lesser used type.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for watching the review! Yeah I'm surprised the Origins doesn't have any Vertical Hinges in the hands or at least a hand for He-man with the power sword. Certain Masterverse He-man figures do. You might be able to find those loose on ebay. The Masterverse Hands fut the Origins and don't look bad depending on the He-man and skin tones.

[@Rocket1377]

Agreed. Human anatomy doesn't work that way either, as when humans wrists turn, the entire forearm turns with it. Hopefully, toy makers will someday come to the realisation that up-down movement is both more useful and more realistic.

[@watsnit]

Funny story I got mine with the origins torso for some reason 😅 when I bought it from Mattel creations

[@Themanchlid]

LOL. Really! You mean the Vintage inspired Origins Heman Torso instead? Sounds like a factory mistake and someone got into the package to take the Torso for customs and replaced it with that Torso and sealed it. That would be an inside job. But im guessing it's a QC issue.

[@takeii_onLife]

That was a LOT of effort making all the comparison swaps so that we don't have to, thank you! Don't like the hot-cross-buns on the quadriceps which is so frustrating because Mattel shouldn't really anatomy-fail at this point, but interesting how they streamlined the pectorals and lats to make accessories from older lines forward-compatible instead.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for taking the time to check out the review and sharing your feedback! Yeah, my channel is kind of known for the on the spot. Mixing and mashing certain parts between figures that might be of interest for customs. It definitely takes a lot of work and editing to do that. I don't always enjoy doing that with all those figures. But a lot of viewers do. I'm not sure why Mattel wanted to change the anatomy a bit. I kind of feel like they were trying to mix something between the Origins' original design and Classics, but much smaller with The Origins articulation to make the figure appear a little bigger. It's different, I guess, but still mixes well with the Origins original parts and accessories as I showed a bit.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for stopping in as always! I'm hooked on this filmation line already. I also noticed the lack of preorder info with Man at arms now. Maybe that figure is pushed back for factory reasons, or they are still unsure if he is part of wave 1 or 2 at the moment. Sometimes, they change things around the last minute. He might also be an exclusive coming to Target or Wal-Mart at some point. I haven't heard much else at the moment.

Awesome looking figure but a big miss by not including his shield..

Thanks for checking out the review! Yeah, I think they added the main sword going back to what was commonly seen in the animation. They also added the sword of the ancients to promote that episode as they are doing with all the cartoon figures and accessories that were seen in certain Filmation episodes. It was very rare to see He-man with his shield in Filmation. But it would have definitely been cool to see one with this figure!

[@THE.KIOTI.01]

Hopefully Mattel will do Tri-Klops! Fingers crossed this line will hit retail stores! Awesome video as always my friend. 👍🏻

I'm almost positive they will do a cartoon Tri-Klops in this line at some point. I'm betting wave 3 or 4. These will show up later in certain retailers. Thanks for watching as always, my friend 🤝

[@sci-fi.tsunami]

For the past 3 years these figures have been a nightmare to find at retail. What makes you think anything will change? You're basically starting a whole new collection from scratch with the same terrible distribution. I hope you're ready for another 3 or 4 years of frustration.

Ehhh, got tha toy a few days ago and very disappointed in the cheap look of the chest piece and sheath. Love that you show what it looks like with the vintage inspired chest piece.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for stopping in! I think the line is gonna be a mix of good and issues with certain collectors who decide to pick these Cartoon Figures up. Some of the people in the comments also didn’t like the brighter color in this He-man. He has a much darker tan look in the filmation cartoon. But you can mix up parts from the first Origins He-man as I showed like that chest and it works really good. So its cool the different parts can be mixed around to make another body. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👍

[@peloquin5652]

The face design looks like the young Steven Seagal, lol

[@adamtsiolas]

You really like the head sculpt? To me is the only thing that i don't like, it seems kinda chubby. Nice review my friend, like always! ;)

[@Themanchlid]

Yes, I really do. I think it's as good as it will get as far as a filmation design with an Origins figure. The next step up is the Classics club greyskull figure that looks more like the toy that jumped out of the cartoon. The Origins are more on the simpler side of looks going back to the vintage designs. Thanks for stopping in as always 👍

[@FandomEntanglement]

Still catching up on a bunch of videos, but I’ve been waiting to see how these Cartoon figures look in hand. I agree that they’re about as close as you can get. I mean, to me there’s no mistaking that this is a He-Man in the Filmation style! And it does look better than the version that came with the 40th Anniversary 4-pack. The only real criticism I would have is that the hand doesn’t have that vertical hinge to hold the sword aloft to emulate the original 80s pose. I remember that the Club Grayskull sub-line of Classics tried their best to make that a reality. Also, I sort of expected that the mini-comics would go more for that Filmation style as well. Perhaps there were some legalities that prevented that. All in all, I like what I’m seeing so far. It’s unfortunate that I’m just so far behind on Origins in general that at this point, I’d need to come in to a great amount of money that I can afford to spend in order to catch up (Wave 8 was my most recent). I’ve been able to get all of the Mattel Creations exclusives (except for that Skeletor x VeeFriends 2-pack thing which I also passed on). Lately, it feels like many of us may have to just pick and choose what we want, there’s just so much. I never thought I’d say that there’s almost too much MotU out there right now! That Turtles of Grayskull line is coming, and as goofy as some of those figures look, I’m kind of a sucker for mashup crossovers. I was a huge MotU fan, and my wife was a huge TMNT fan, so trying to get those figures to share with our kid is practically a no-brainer!

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for also taking the time to check out these Filmation inspired Origins videos. As I mentioned, I wasn't sure if I was gonna pick up these. I want the vintage inspired Origins figures finished up first. But Mattel is going in different directions or at least mixing and mashing all kinds of stuff like the Turtles of Greyskull coming. To be honest, I will probably pick those up, too. I grew up with the Ninga Turtles and always liked that concept. But what's funny is I don't have a single Ninga Turtle related figure in all my collection. So what better time to get a few is with the Origins Cross over! I'm all for it! But the expense with all the Motu figures is tough, as you mentioned! I, too, think there is too much MOTU out too fast now! I didn't pick up the Skeletor two pack from Mattel Creations. I'm gonna wait for the single card release, Skeletor. Going back to the Filmation He-man. I think the look and design are as good as they're gonna get for an Origins figure. The colors are off from the filmation. But again, it's Origins! Not the Club Greyskull Classics. This line is trying to be simpler, and it's definitely pushing details for certain figures like this He-man. I think he came out great!👍

@@Themanchlid yes please , for colour comparison.

[@Themanchlid]

@@christaylor2428 OK I tried the Keldor head on that Barbarian Skeletor..the Keldor skin is very bright Sky Blue and glossy color. The Barbarian Skeletor is a very pale dull blue color. They aren't even close. The hair on Keldors head sits on the back of the Skeletor armor and pushes it forward a bit. But does fit the ball peg. I remember reviewing that Barbarian Skeletor and looking how off or unique his skin color is to all the other Origins or Masterverse Skeletor figures. So that head and Body is not a good match to be honest.

[@TheWandifan]

Awesome figure!! I got mine pre-ordered. Due till space, I’m only getting this guy and skeketor. If they release count Marzo, evil seed, Moss Man and queen Marlena, I’ll get those too. Obviously some of the horde female characters as well if those come out. No idea it was a bit taller. I thought from the comparison they showed at SDCC, the origins he man looked to have his knees bent a little. That dragon blaster He Man is fuckin fire, bro 🤣🤣

Thanks for stopping in bro! Yeah I like the new look of this filmation He-man. I'm interested in the rest of the line. But of course I want the rest of the Origins Vintage figures finished up too. Yes this He-man is a little taller and bulky compared to the Vintage one. I just had him bent more at the knees so he can balance. He's about 1/4 taller. But larger at the legs and new arms. Yeah I had a comment about trying the dragon Blaster Skeletor armor on the He-man buck before the Skeletor comes out and does it fit ok. So I went for that! Lol 👍

I'm really into the 80s stuff, too. Yeah, it really messed with me opening this He-man card up to review him. The card was ruined, and I opened it. But I was glad to review the figure finnaly! Thanks for watching ✌️

[@sharkMac]

Idk. This looks a lot better then super7. I’m really looking forward to Trap Jaw lol! And Probably Ram-Man.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking the review out. Yeah, I think they did a really job on this filmation He-man to fit in the Origins line. The head sculpt is much better than the first release Mattel Creations Cartoon He-man that I compared.

[@jasonhobby2792]

How did you already get one?

[@Themanchlid]

Ebay. But I think the paulmart store might have some in stock.

[@patientmental875]

How did you get it so fast?

[@Themanchlid]

Someone on Ebay had a few for a good price at the time. Thanks for stopping in to check out the review 👍

[@ichi76]

😮😮dios donde puedo pillar esa cabeza vintage de el gran he-man de los 80 😮😮😍🤩🤩

[@Themanchlid]

That was a Custom Head for the Origins He-man someone made on ebay a couple of years ago. I haven't seen any more in a while! It really looks cool. I wish Mattel made More Heads like that for the Origins. Thanks for watching 👍

[@maverick7291]

Unless i missed it, i would have loved to have seen Filmation he-mans head on origin prince Adam.

[@Themanchlid]

No, I didn't try that! It's a good idea, though, and it will look good. I try to mix and match what ideas I can at the time, but I also try to keep the video run time down. There's just too many figures, heads, and parts to mix now that is still technically a figure review video. That could be a custom video for another time. I also have a feeling of cartoon Prince Adam. Is coming down the road.

[@trash44gzgigasmashkaza50]

Love the cartoon but preffer the first origins he-man who looks like the mini comics that apear in Alcalas drawings despite many people hate it he is the closest for the original lords of power story

[@Themanchlid]

@trash44gzgigasmashkaza50 Thanks for checking out this review! Yeah, I think many of us who grew up with the brand in the 80s will also prefer that first Origins He-man going back to the comics or vintage toys. This cartoon He-man is still cool to have for people who also watched the animation and prefer that style He-man in the Origins line.

[@audiobrainiac]

This particular line is right up my alley. I’ll be replacing my Origins figures with these. Great review Man Child!

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking the review out! Yeah I think many fans want a mix of the Origins vintage figures and the filmation figures too. I know some people in the comments have asked and been wanting filmation figures in the Origins line. Well now there here! I'm more for the vintage collection myself! But after getting a couple of these filmation figures, I really like them and can't wait for more! I'm glad to hear you also like the line as well!👍

[@a.q.gonzales9835]

i dont get the obsession of Mattel with semi squatting male figures with small hips and ManKinis...now they have an "animated" version of the Filmation characters...😂...still prefer the Super7 filmation version....great comparison and review

[@Themanchlid]

The Squatting pose in the Legs goes back to the vintage figures and barbarian artistic concepts. It's mainly about the Nastalgia and making those figures look bulky and heavy like big hunched muscles guys. At least the Origins has knee articulation now and the knees can be posed to appear a little more upright than the vintage figures. The Super7 filmation or classics are better for more accurate Leg asthetics and body looks. The Origins are doing something a little different and staying more to the 80s Nastalgia but with some newer designs and better articulation. Thanks for watching as always 👍

[@a.q.gonzales9835]

@@Themanchlid yah i have those 80s MoTu figs too before even the other lines but its about time Mattel does what other companies are doing in terms of appearance, characters in the cartoons doesnt have those features i mentioned - i wish they would come up with better sculpts in terms of what we see in the cartoons and not the design Mattel wants to stick with....looking forward to more reviews on your channel 😊

[@Themanchlid]

@@a.q.gonzales9835 Yeah I guess they try to do what is more on the simple side of sculpts going back to the Origins theme. Anything else would go into the Classics styles which always looked the best as far as More accurate apperance. But those figures are very expensive to sculpt, paint and Manufacture now. I think that's why Mattel is trying to stay away from that and stick with less expensive designs as many collectors don't want to pay high prices. But it will be interesting to see what comes down the line from Mattel. I'm working on the Origins Cartoon Figure Review now. Hopefully I will get the video up later Tommorrow. Thanks for your interest and support torward my channel👍

Ok I understand now. I didn't see or know your indonesian. Hello from the USA! I'm glad to hear you like the figure as well!👍

[@Rocket1377]

Good looking figure, although he should have been more tanned than the regular He-Man. Beast Man has the same problem, he is far too pale.

[@Themanchlid]

The sculpts and designs look cool to mix in to the Origins line as far as Filmation figures. The colors are off and somewhat different from the Cartoon. But they still look good for Origins. Thanks for checking the review out 👌

[@watsnit]

The head works fantastic with the 40th anniversary

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah that head can work good on different He-man bodies if you want more the filmation look. I only tried a few examples in the review. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👌

[@ZOMb2010]

NOT IN CANADA ...AS USUAL USA COLLECTORS ONLY !!!

[@Themanchlid]

These are just coming out in the USA and still early yet. I would think they will end up in Canada at some point. 👍

[@Gavriel2016]

This figure so good but the body so different

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah, they changed the body up a bit. You can always put the head and accessories on the original release vintage inspired Origins He-man body like i showed. Thanks for watching 👍

[@eurorko]

The head still looks off to me. The hair as well.

[@Themanchlid]

I don't think it's ever gonna be perfect like it jumped out of the cartoon. You have to go to the Super7 Classics filmation He-man figure for that. The Origins is trying to do something similar to the vintage figure design as if this was the Filmation figure in the 80s and what it might have looked like. It looks close. But not 100 percent. Thanks for watching and sharing your comments 👌

[@allmusicfan88]

Well, I guess that is why they made Filmation He-Man the exact same skin tone color as the other He-Man, to swap out things, so you can interchange between them all. ha ha But Filmation He-Man has a much darker skin tone! I wanted it to be that way, like the cartoon shows, but oh well! I still like the figure. Surprising they didn't include a fisted right hand with this one, as he often used that feature in the cartoon. Glad I have plenty of Thunder Punch He-Man! ha ha But man, that skin tone is too light for cartoon accuracy! ha ha

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for stopping in to check out this review! Yeah, I heard a couple of other comments about the Filmation He-man not being tan enough. I guess it has something to do with the interchangeable parts with the other Origins vintage inspired He-man figures, as you mentioned, and I showed which works well. You would have to go to the Super7 Filmation Classics to get a cartoon accurate He-man figure. Origins is doing something a little different, but yet it looks good with the design. The Thunder Punch He-man Armor looks really cool on this figure. That's great you have plenty of those!👍

[@allmusicfan88]

@@Themanchlid That has to be it, Mattel probably wants it that way to interchange between them all. I have the Super7 Filmation line, both the Club Grayskull and the vintage inspired Filmation line. I love it all. I think He-Man will be the only character where the skin tone is way off the cartoon. ha ha

[@Themanchlid]

@allmusicfan88 OK, you also have the Super7 club Greyskull He-man. I still have mine on a card with that Skeletor. I think that's is as good as it will get with filmation perfect 6 inch He-man figure. I think Origins will only go so far accurately because the line is supposed to be simpler.

[@allmusicfan88]

@@Themanchlid Yes, I have the Mattel Club Grayskull Filmation He-Man as well. They started that before Super7, on the first year. 2016 I wouldn't mind if Mattel went back and made a second version of Filmation He-man, with the correct skin tone, and include a alternate "Faker" head with the glowing eyes from Filmation. That would be a fair reason to make another Filmation He-Man. 🙂

[@Themanchlid]

@allmusicfan88 Anytime is possible with this brand and the direction of the figures. I think there was a Custom Faker head for that Filmation He-man on Ebay at one time.

[@geffeternal741]

They should have given him the cartoon inspired versions of the shield and axe like the ones that came with the Club Grayskull figure. 🤔

[@Themanchlid]

I think the club greyskull figure was trying to be more accurate and do something different than Origins which is on the more simple side. I didn't expect to see the axe and shield. But it would have been cool. One thing at a time! Thanks for watching as always 👍

[@jerellewynn2855]

I agree with Charlincl 2099 Should have included the axe or shield. He still looks pretty cool. 8 still think the super 7 head sculpt is still superior or come close to the filmation. Good video sir.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for checking the out! Yeah I think if they included an axe and Shield, it would have been an Mattel creations Exclusive Figure or more money as i noticed with other Deluxe Origins figures that come with more than Two weapons. Plus to be fair. It's going off the filmation episode with the two swords only. You can always use The vintage Axe and sword as I showed!👍

[@jasonking3182]

Teela is the one I want to see, the females do need a new buck.

[@Themanchlid]

Yeah it will interesting to see if Teela has a newer buck and how it compares with the Regular Origins Female figures. I think Teela ships around January.

Jesus I never thought I would see the day where we have too many MOTU figures now. MOTU is just so saturated now I really cannot collect anymore. Origin's are kinda crappy, it's hard to collect them after Classics/Revelation stuff.

Yeah I hear that man! I have the whole Classics collection line and never thought I would get into the Masterverse or Origins, Never mind so many things out now. I like all three collections for different reasons and to see all the core characters in different forms. But too am running out of room. The curse of the toy collector! Lol..Thanks for stopping in to check out the video and sharing your thoughts 👌

[@Emolga6274]

The teela looks amazing , they nailed the portrait

[@hegga_nm]

You are way too kind to Mattel... That old Filmation He-Man looks like somebody was messing around and decided to put on a blue wig and don a He-Man cosplay. I wouldn't think they were screwing around with fans when they decided to release that figure as cartoon He-Man... Nobody can make me believe that a sane MotU manager could look at the guy that designed the head and said "You nailed it!"... Unless he was Matel CEO's son/daughter or something... >.

[@Themanchlid]

I mentioned I didn't care for the old filmation Mattel Creations He-man that came in that four pack. I think this new one looks much better trying to look like the filmation figure in Origins form.

[@hegga_nm]

@@Themanchlid this new one is great, specially when you put him next to the other Filmation “He-Man” 🤣 It’s still not perfect, but I like it. I am not sure what is going on but for some reason Mattel is struggling to make a good new He-Man face sculpt. I mean, just look at that anniversary filmation, goofy Revelation He-Man, even NE Battle Armor He-Man and NE Viking He-Man… To be fair, last two were not bad face skulpts, they just weren’t good He-Man face sculpts imo.

[@Themanchlid]

@nedimmehmedovic Yeah, the new one definitely looks better against the old one as far as face sculpt. The filmation Head sculpt for an Origins He-man will never look like it jumped out of the cartoon. That's not what the line is trying to do. That's more for the classics figures to have that accurate design. These figures are what that vintage line could have looked like if they sculpted the filmation designs instead of the vintage concept art we got with those original figures.

[@Emolga6274]

Sorry, but I fuckin despise these cartoon pieces of crap. Never was a fan of the crappy Filmation cartoon. I just want to finish the vintage collection that we already started. They should have finished the vintage line in 2024 & then moved onto this cartoon garbage for 2025. I'm pissed that they are dragging this line out. I just want to finish up & be done with it. Stupid MattelCreations is gonna drag it out all next year. I want to quit toy collecting after I finish up my vintage Origins collection. So I'm in a hurry. I'm sick & tired of toy collecting.

[@Themanchlid]

Thanks for the feedback, and you're sharing your thoughts and frustrations. The other vintage figures are coming. They are very expensive to tool now. So Mattel is trying other figures that are cheaper to manufacture and give all the other fans filmation figures who have been asking for those.

[@sci-fi.tsunami]

@@Themanchlid I haven't seen anybody ask for cartoon figures. All I've seen are people wanting vintage style Two-Bad, Stonedar, Rokkon & Sy-Klone. Pretty much everybody wants to finish the vintage line that we've been collecting for the past 3 years. This Cartoon Collection came out of left field. Why start a whole new collection before the first one is complete??? It makes no sense. And most of us do not want to deal with MattelCreations and their immediate sell outs. I already see some people complaining about starting a whole new collection from scratch. A lot of us don't want to buy the same characters all over again. I sure as hell ain't collecting the cartoon shits. The vintage collection has been a nightmare to collect over the past 3 years. Why would any sane person want to start from scratch & go through that all over again? We only have around 4 more waves of the vintage collection to finish it up. This just doesn't make any sense.

[@Themanchlid]

@sci-fi.tsunami I read and responded to most comments. Or joined other live streams and read comments about figures people wanted in the Masterverse or Origins line. Both Vintage Inspired and filmation come up often when figure speculation or wants are being discussed. I also mentioned that I want Mattel to finish the vintage inspired line first as many other people want as well. But again, there are people who want different things or filmation figures. I have had these discussions with people. Why Mattel is taking their time finishing that vintage lineup is only a guess in my mind or what I think. But you would have to send them an email and maybe get a response back about your questions.

[@Emolga6274]

I don’t think people really care about the origins anymore since 95% of the figures are made already. And everyone seems to be really liking these new filmation figures more than the origins. You, my friend are the last of a dying breed. I suggest you get with the times. filmation and new eternia is the future.

[@denimgenes5909]

This is one of the worst sculpts Ive ever seen. It looks exactly like Charlie Sheen with a cheap looking armor and that other one is hideous as well. The Oo-Lar face sculpt is by far the best sculpt for He-Man. How can they keep getting it so wrong all these years??

[@Themanchlid]

I think the Oris trying to do something a little different that is reminisent of the filmation looks but not perfect. The Mattel or Super7 Filmation He-man is more accurate to that!
