Great video, dude! I've bought this figure myself, but its still in my loot pile at bbts. Waiting for the Skeletor figure to get released before I tell them to ship my loot. I saw in another video that you can actually pull the upper body from the hips and remove that skirt piece to reveal the classic pants with the golden belt underneath, if you want that classic look. When I first saw the pictures of this figure I instantly thought about replacing that body with a TBLeague (Phicen) M34 body. It has a Schwarzenegger sculpt to it, its seamless and highly posable too. I thought it would look really great as a He-Man body, but then I discovered that a lot of the "outfit" is sculped onto the body. The harness can be taken off, the heads can be used after some minor modifications and the accessories can be used as well. However! The boots needs to be replaced, and I don't think that the hands can't be used with a TBLeague body, but that won't be a problem. The head might need a paintjob to match the skintone with the new body. Some work will be required, but I still think that a full body swap is possible to get way better articulation. I'll have to get the figure in hand myself to see what can actually be used, but so far I have high hopes that it can be done. I did begin the work on a custom 1/6 He-Man a while back, but then I saw this one so I scrapped my project LOL! But 160 US bucks ain't too bad for the parts though, considering what you might end up with IF you buy them seperate from eBay. The harness, head sculpt and the weapons are hard to make from scratch, so harvesting them from this figure would be a good "shortcut". Then you add about 90 US bucks for the M34 body, and voilá, you're just a few tweeks from having a superb version of He-Man! With that said! I still think that this is a great version of He-Man. They could have left out that extra sword, the guns and that extra character, or even possibly replaced it with Orko instead. I watched a LOT of He-Man cartoons when I was a kid, and I can't remember that "pillow" with a head...
