This was way before filmmation, back when He-Man was basically a Conan clone who left his tribe in search of adventure. In fact things were pretty much in a constant state of flux in that first year (and one could argue, even after... ), as the snake armored (warrior) Goddess was shown with green skin in her minicomic appearance, when she gifted the armor and weapons to He-Man. Then again these early comics were rife with colouring mistakes, many of which fans argue the legitamacy of to this day. As things soon changed from the original concepts and ideas of the original 4 minicomics, Teela morphed into the character fans are more familiar with today, while the Goddess character morphed into a seperate character altogether, instead becoming The Sorceress, and the snake armor was rarely referred to or used from that time on. However as the vintage figure came with the snake armor and staff, it only made sense for mattel to include that stuff when releasing the classics version of Teela.

What can I say, I was a MOTU kid growing up...
Thanx Sledge... Now m gonna throw this in Zat guy's face.. This is why we r getting a Green teela.. i hate the teela marrying Hiss thing.. You r still a MOTU Kid.. I Kid You not..

When's Adora going up for sale? I might actually get that one since she's never been done as a figure before. Looks just like the cartoon.
