I love the Sky Sled, but am I the only one bummed out by the fact they included Adam rather than an army builder figure or no figure at all? I like the Adam figure, but if you want multiples of these (which was obviously Mattel’s intention), you’ll end up having multiple Adam figures. Seems like an army builder figure (Palace Guards/etc) would have been more practical.
Hopefully they will release a full Battle Ram in the future, with both the Sky Sled and an army builder figure. A palace guard would be ideal.
It was absolutely a dumb idea to put a unique character with the sky sled. We brought this up to Mattel at powercon. They said that was a good idea and they’d look into it but obviously they don’t care about fan feedback. I’ll only buy one now instead of multiple. Bad move Mattel.
Lassi Kinnunen But that’s the thing - they did assume some people would buy multiples. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have added the extra pieces to convert it to the bad guys’ version of the sled. So again, why not be practical and include an army-building figure instead? It’s just a dumb decision. As a collector, I actually would’ve bought a few of these but now I won’t. They’ve lost some money there. And I’m sure I won’t be the only one.
@@kingkahn11 Considering this is marketed towards kids again, it sorta makes sense. But they could at least make variants...
That's a really good point, considering they made the head on the sky sled swappable, people are going to buy a few of these and have extra Adams on hand. Man, I already dislike this line.
With the swappable parts you can take Adam's gripping left hand and swap it with He Man's so he too can hold on to the sled with both hands.
Yeah. I was thinking the same thing. And since many will get at least two sky sleds, they'll also have two Adams and two left hands (with two ugly head sculpts as well).
And I don't need a Prince Adam for my display, so that buck is going to be used for a custom. Probably a Galaxy Warriors Origins Sahaak/Cobra
You can, but looking at the video Adam is barely seated, it looks like he’s too big for it or something
@@WRITETRACK76 I noticed that too. The figures sit very reclined.
@@PuertoGeekan,
The animated characters on the show NEVER “sat” on the ‘Sky Sled’. They all sort of stood with their knees slightly bent, while leaning back a bit.
They should do a smiling face sculpt for Adam. Also, I would've preferred a separate evil sky sled in the green/grey/blue colour from the cartoon.
No smiling face
This line is great because people like me that don't want to spend 50$+ on one he-man figure can finally collect classic looking he-man figures for a decent price!
Edit: never mind, I'll never be able to get these
@Dabble yes, I wrote this comment a month ago. Since then, I've found Prince Adam and Battlecat. Still no he-man or skeletor or any basic figures yet.
@@kryptonitespider-bitedynam7305 any luck?
@@TenkoVA yes. I found all of them now. You?
@@kryptonitespider-bitedynam7305 I have access to all of them, but I've only bought he man so far.
@@TenkoVA cool
The Battle Ram was my very first MoTU toy; I am really looking forward to it making an appearance in Origins!
on the bright side, the bend in the package makes it look more vintage.
I really just found out about this new line late last month. As soon as I discovered it I bought He-Man and Skeletor, and then last week I ordered Man-at-Arms and Hordak! (my absolute *FAVORITE* MotU figure ever since the original, which I first got when I was 9 years old back in '85.) I just now ordered the Skysled and Prince Adam set, and also Trap Jaw... and his looks absolutely *RAD*.
I plan on trying to pick up one or two of these guys each month; I figure my *very* limited fixed income should be able to handle that much. I don't actually collect action figures, but this line just looks SO damn good with all the articulation, (basically they look just like the originals only BETTER!) the price point is within my reach, and because the original Masters of the Universe line was so central to my and my brother's childhood, that I just cannot resist these guys.
I truly hope they sell well to contemporary kids so that they can have the same fun with He-Man that I did as a kid, and also so Mattel is able to justify continuing the line.
Had the Battle-ram as a kid. Such a great concept/toy.
I actually feel relieved seeing my Adam figure’s face in person. I wasn’t impressed seeing the face online but now it looks a lot better and will definitely want He-man now since both heads are pretty much the same.
Walmart should have a toy section that is all vintage. It's not like they're short on product. MOTU, G1, The Real Ghostbusters, Star Wars retro and the "retro" Gi Joe line.
They should just have a tough section.
I second that!
My Walmart has an entire section dedicated to these new figures
@@TenkoVA it's just
..empty
That’s awesome! I never thought we’d get toys like this based off the original show, especially the vehicles! If I decide to buy this I’d have to get two so I can leave one in package. We are so blessed with motu toys, hopefully the same goes with the new movie and series.
Why would u want 2 of this junk .
Great review, loved the comparison times for this one. Love the Origins and WWE Masters lines, bring it on Mattel.
Im happy that im finally able to get a He-Man and Skeletor, since these figures are way before my time, I’ve always loved MOTU, so its nice to finally get them.
I really LOVE this toy! Thanks for the video Dan!
Nice review Dan, loved it, very detailed as usual :)
I really hope we'll get these in the UK soon! I'll be buying them for myself and my young cousin
I will be swapping the heads over on Adam and He-Man. Although the OG toys had the same hair color, the Filmation animation model had adam sporting the lighter hair and He-Man the darker.
I have to say it was a good call for Mattel to rethink their strategy and step away from stuff like that new head sculpt and basically no action features at all. The visual changes compared to vintage have become much more subtle and Origins now stands as a very.. VERY nice and comprehensive line within the franchise.
I wonder when this stuff will appear over in Europe. I refuse to buy from scalpers.
Totally agree, Mattel need to release this in Europe
I'm from Germany and it's very easy to find some figures at some websites for a fair price . 1 figure for arround 16 Euro is a good deal . ^^
@@paluxyl.8682 Where are you buying if I may ask?
@@paluxyl.8682 ja, aber es gibt lieferschwierigkeiten mit einem der Importeure zur zeit. Mal sehen ob smyth toys die wenigstens rechtzeitig im August in den Handel bringt.....ich hoffe es
It's released, here, in the US and we still have to buy it from scalpers...
Can’t wait to get these figures! Thanks for sharing this👍🏼
If I had to guess, I'd say that the battle ram will be released with its own sky sled eventually. That way collectors won't be forced to have multiple Adam's just to get the sleds. Wonder if they'd re-release the sled with a Keldor figure?
Seeing again all this in the toy stores will be an amazing blast from the past.
Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey! Hey-ey-ey! I said Hey, This line looks dope!
?
WHATS GOING ON!
I love that MOTU is coming back bigger than ever, but He-Man and Adam's face look like they are taking a painful dump on these figures LOL
Yeah, everyone keeps screwing up He-Man's face. The only He-Man face I like is on the original and the battle damage version which uses the same head.
Idc I’ll take what I can get.
Constipator , new character :p
I used to have many of the MOTU action figures as a kid, and to me he ALWAYS looked like he was constipated.
Great toy! Nice bridge between collector and kids. This is a better offering by Mattel than I have expected. It is a toy but it’s got enough to make collectors happy. Interchangeablility, flight stand, and blast effects. Very nice.
Defo gotta get this and He-Man, need a wide release She-Ra and Adora too! Last time vintage style She-Ra was made was an SDCC exclusive which unfortunately screws over those like myself that can't go easily in the UK and then the Super7 She-Ra figs had major issues.
I wish these were out sooner. I would rather check in store than buy online just to get ones with the best paint jobs.
That little red demon next to Mer-Man is "Mow-Dor", a mini comic character named and re-vamped by Axel Gimenez , btw great review! , I hope they arrive soon to Mexico City :D
Great vehicle! I gotta say that I like the shovel-like shape on the original a bit more, but it's a very cool representation. It's a good thing that you can actually sit the characters on it; that tends to be a problem with a lot of lines, like TMNT for example.
Very cool stuff man, can’t wait for the line to release. Quick question, are the hands interchangeable, if so that could at least afford He-Man two gripping hands?
The dark warrior battling Teela is straight from the vintage Battle Ram packaging - love it.
It's cool these are coming, even if there's no desire from my side to replace Classics or even just start another collection. It's a shame that scalpers seem to be hogging supplies now, but I guess this will work in favor of the line (re-releases of popular items due to fast sellouts which imply high demand) and in turn might actually work against scalpers in the long run. Here's me crossing my fingers for everyone who wants those.
I think that is Vikor the He Man of the North.
This is great reminds me of my childhood. I'd love to have that figure and shred cycle
Hey dan great video love the he man reviews one question will you ever make a video on the uncanny x men sublines like x force or x factor?
I wish sky sleds were real . Just hop on and go wherever u want
I wish it came with an army builder like the palace guard instead of Prince Adam so you could actually army build it without getting an army of Prince Adams
Was so pumped to get this in mail...got my battle cat today too
Great video, Dan!
I love these and want all of it. However, they've had plenty of time to fix the sword handle issue since the con exclusive set was released. There is no excuse, none, as to why they couldn't just make the handle slimmer or make the grip larger. It couldn't cost that much to remold either one. Considering they went ahead with the WWE line, it follows that all they would need to change is the sword's handle. While I'm disappointed in that detail, I still look forward to the line. Maybe they will fix things later on.
I can't wait for these!
Great Vehicle. Hope they come up with an armed, two-seated (side by side) Wind Raider this time. My favourite vehicle was the Fright Fighter. Enclosed cockpit, flapping wings action (reminded me of the ornithopters in Dune), articulated guns, a clamp...lots of fun and great design.
Dan, do you think they make an edition of the figure with the vintage head?
Mattel has been impressing me more than Hasbro lately , the box art and the toys look great, but this Wal-mart crap with shipping crushing boxes and pre-orders not working is just horrible
Mattel's relaunch of Jurassic park has been awesome, i haven't bought any yet but some have really been nice, Dan always tries to be nice at toy fair and the shows that the reps show up at,
not sure if it will do any good to tell these companies that this just sucks and they need to do better
A little hard to tell but are the skin tones on Adam and He-man the same? Can you swap the gripping left hand onto He-man's left hand and will it match?
I found this and a musical mutagen tour merch pack today. I had no expectations. Both were laying in random places in the stores. I can't believe I lucked out. I Realllyyy want to find a Battle Cat soon. That 4 pack turtles musical... I will take what I can find at this point. Damn Corona
6:32 when Mattel only gives you half a power sword
Adam/he man looks like someone that needs to be taken care of and who will need help in everyday life as long as he lives.
Great review, now if only I could find these figures in the Chicagoland area! I cannot wait to start getting my hands on these figures to go with the awesome WWE crossover.
Chicarango!
@Pixel Dan Did some Prince Adam and Sky Sled sets come with a Man-At-Arms club? I'm seeing this in some product photos but not everyone appears to have the club. I'm worried I threw mine out with the packaging, because apparently it comes taped to the bottom.
Thank you for giving out the in store release date for these. I am getting frustrated with their website. This is what I hate about store exclusives.
Almost 4 months later and still can't find this thing. Combination of scalpers and Covid slowing down production I guess :/
I found one today but his right forearm was put on backwards!
Not because covid. Scalpers have always ruined the masters of universe when reselling. That’s why I quit collecting due to scalpers
Can not wait to get my hands on this line.
Very cool! Cant wait to get it.
I get the feeling toys are aimed more at adults than kids these days. There seems to be a lot of retro figures based off old toy lines, rather than new stuff. Kids don't seem to have anything today like what kids had in the 80s and 90s. Maybe that's why toy companies are focusing on adult collectors more.
Great review, Dan! What’s the retail price?
Pretty darn cool! 👍🏻👍🏻
argh! I was hoping his head would have different hair. That hair is just...weird.
Love they released the sky sled alone. When I was a kid I never got to be able to play with the sky sled (that was probably the most used ship in the cartoon seconded by may be Attack Track) cause it was really expensive (At least in my country). The Sky sled alone for sure would have costed way less.
I don't know if this was common but my Adam (that i got 2nd hand through ebay because i didn't want/need the sky sled) his tunic was seemingly glued on roughly from the belt buckle downward. I could PROBABLY have separated it with a exacto knife but didn't want to risk cutting belt and ruining the tunic. (UPDATE) So it took some pulling but i was able to get the vest off without ripping it along the belt (your kind of have to pull it down till it's practically inside out along the waist) I managed to pull it off the glue and it left a bit of pink glue residue but I'm sure i can scape/sand it off. So just wanted anyone else who wanted to try removing the vest that it IS possible.
The target by my house had these for 50% off. I bought 1 of them but should’ve got all of them. I forgot at the time you could change the parts for the villain version! When I went back, they were gone 😂. At least the one I have has the updated sword handle and everything but damn. Wish I bought an extra
I think Mattel should reissue the Classics line instead of these updated vintage figures. The Classics line is by far the best of MOTU. If Mattel did that, they’d make mad money.
Is that Thundarr the Barbarian on those 2 sky sleds next to the wind raider? Nice.
the artwork is amazing 🤙🏼
I used to work for Kohl's, and as a collector, I tried packaging every package right, but they did not let me,.. just get it in, fast, fast, fast,.. was there gist,.. I'm sure people where cheesed with the type of packaging quality they received
I just realized that Prince Adam seems to be the only figure where the hands are wider open for ticker handles. So no other figure can grab the Sky Sled and Adam can't grab any other weapon than his sword... 🤷🏻♂️🙄😳
Am I the only one who likes the new He-Man / Adam face sculpt? 🙈 I’m glad they didn’t use the constipated ogre head of the SDCC version
i also like the design leaning more into the Alcala comic book design honestly. Besides, they are releasing a power armor he-man with the OG head sculpt for the complainers
When are these Origins figures going to be available?
I don't like the bigger silver gun on the sled, hurts the aesthetics. The Classics one win the beauty contest, which I guess isn't surprising.
Props for being able to make the evil version, though. And for the stand
It was so lame not use the other He-Man head or create a new one for Adam. At least they gave him two gripping hands.
I plan on doing some aging on mine.. some black washes on this will make all the line pop..
I hope they also introduce Skeletor's Roton craft, that'd be cool.
I bought one today then took it home and noticed his right forearm was put on backwards. Any clue if this is worth keeping?
Can anyone confirm if Walmart's sister store Asda in the UK will be stocking these or is our only option online if outwith the USA?
WOW! Amazing set!!!
My favorite vintage vehicle is the Attak Trak .
I just had to buy this thanks to your video 😄
So bought him like a week ago, and got him yesterday.
Looks great. The only down fall on the European releases is the lack of the "preamble text" beneath all the headers and pictures. 😕
Anyone know if the flight stand will fit a MOTUC sky sled?
I love these figures. And I really don't want to gripe. But I do hope they release the sky sled by itself or maybe with an army builder figure, like maybe a palace guard. I really don't want to have to figure out what to do with extra Prince Adam figures if I buy more than one Sky Sled. But really that's my only gripe here. Beautiful stuff.
You won't have any trouble selling loose Prince Adams.
🤯 *curious/ missable detail:* the right side of the hinge joint on the flight base is a small flat steel disk, whereas the left side of it is sculpted blue plastic (which perfectly fits the style of the rest of the vehicle). as soon as I noticed it I told my Son to run and get a magnet off the fridge. sure enough, it sticks! this has got my imagination in overdrive, thinking about what this could mean for magnetic components of He-Man toys to come!
just got this for my Son. we're so excited, and are having a great time with it as well as the rest of this line so far! (and some of my vintage MOTU, and some stuff from Loyal Subjects; scale is weird, but whatever LOL)
The-entire-Battle-Ram-was-what-I-wanted...Not-sure-why-they-didnt-go-that-route.
Pixel Dan, at 1:34 could that be a Skelcon figure you see on the box? It would be really cool to have some army builder figures in this line. Other people below are correct, should be in this set
Last thing I needed up until Roton wonder if battle ram 🐏 is going to be made saw picture on land shark I think plus snake mountain?
I hope there will be an alternate heads set in the future for all figures
When is the next P Danny and Bry Fly (Brian Flynn) show??
Really Cool!
Funny how I'm finding this and other retro stuff at target now
I like that we could take the figures apart. It would make cleaning them easy.
Still haven't found this in the wild in Ocala FL
It may be because I got a new wave, but my He-Man(same wave as LOP Merman) and Adam(from this set) look very different(the head, at least). One of the down sides of this set is that the support doesn’t come off easily(like the Wind Raider, for exemple). The features of changing the Sled are awesome, but it has no storage for the extra parts.
Anyways, I got this for less(than the equivalent of) 26 dollars so I’m not complaining.
Great review Dan! Excited to get an affordable vehicle but to me I just don't like the way they sit on it. Seems like the original figures and even Classics could actually sit where these look like they're about to fall off or riding one of those weird elliptical bikes.
I would prefer the lop prince adam. I think Mattel should in the future release that version of prince adam. It would make sense and he comes with the full grey sword.
Target had them for 40% off grabbed two of them. Not sure what to do with the second Prince Adam but cool to have two of them at that price.
I just did the exact same thing today. Not sure why they're selling it so cheap but not complaining. My local Target had nearly twenty on the shelf and only $15, same price as just a single regular figure.
Nifty video! Thank you! I like the way they're keeping the brand alive and innovating new features, but I'm going to sit this line out, I think. Can't justify buying the same things all over YET AGAIN, especially if Wal-Mart is just going to trash the packaging.
Recently I've seen him being bundled with both the power sword and man-at-arms yellow club. I wonder what the deal with that is?
Do you think bigger online retailers will stock these later?
Yes yes yes
Measures just shy of 8 inches long, from the tip to the back ...... Havent measured the sky sled yet though ;)
Having trouble with getting my skysled out of the stand doe's it come back out?
I want Skeletor to be a deluxe origins figure with his own custom purple war sled with a ram skull as its head.
The Classics figures look really goofy on video compared to in hand. I’m liking the look of the Origins figures more, so if they are even better IRL I’ll be stoked.
I like the sky sled. It's a great piece prince Adam's ok just the face. You can swap prince Adam's hands and put them on heman. So he can ride the sky sled. Hope Mattel brings out a ram man figure need that in 5inch. And different figures we haven't got like moteeg etc. Great review fan.
I NEED this!
I like the sky sled but now i have to adams i which they put in a sky guard that would be better a palace guard
