Got Deluxe Skeletor and Deluxe He-Man a few months ago. On another note, BBTS has pre-orders open for She-Ra with Swift Wind ($499). And also their exclusive Anti-Eternia He-Man, which is just a recolor. Holding out hope this line is not dying off before it gets rolling.

Iron Studios prices are usually close to $800 for something that size. Makes me think they're charging by popularity rather than actual costs.

I'm in AU and preordered the lot. I have these in hand:

Skeletor on Throne
He-Man Deluxe
Prince Adam
Hordak
Stratos
Evil-Lyn
Ram-Man
Trap Jaw

Sorceress is likely arriving next week.

Evil-Lyn is crap - the skin looks like coloured plastic, way off the proto.

Ram-man and Trap Jaw are still boxed.

The others are all great.

I thought they said they would fix She-Ra's (on swiftwind) face?

The pre-order doesn't look like they touched it. I was hoping for a bit of a re-do.

It's a volume of fans game.

I would absolutely buy the heck out of M.A.S.K and Voltron statues from IS. Happily throw in Go-Bots, Rock Lords, DinoRiders and Dinosaucers too... however as I said it's a volume game, I doubt there's enough other's there with me.

G1 Transformers however, has that volume and this company is doing wonders with properties from similar fanbases... so only natural that peeps would enquire.

For the record, fan service or whatever, they've said on their social media that they'd like to do Transformers.

It's killing me that IS did not change She-Ra's face or the sword on the 1:10 with her and Swiftwind.

Swiftwind looks AMAZING and the statue is great, except She-Ra because she isn't pretty at all. The face is that of a child, not a grown woman who is very very pretty. Without making that face better, I can't justify spending $500+ on this piece.

So sad since this is a dream piece for me.

They also need to fix his horn. It's too high up on his head, and it is too thin and too short.

She-ra?s face? WHY?!!

I am totally with you who have mentioned She-ra?s face. It is just the biggest disappointment for what otherwise would have been just a stunning masterpiece. A real dream come true piece for any She-ra fan. But they have ignored fan feedback here and left this awful sculpt! I?m just stunned. Her face is gorgeous on the one of her by herself I just can?t begin to understand why they wouldn?t at least have it somewhat similar to this one.
