Oh dear. Hopefully Mattel has already sent the email.

Kind of doubting we'll get a cape with this. The base doesn't have the smooth bits behind him where the cape rested on the original.

Doubt they would have recasted the base. He better be a lot cheaper without a cape.

While were at it why weren't all these great portraits available when the lifesize bust was done?
Can we get a variant for the bust?

The action figure head, this Alcala portrait, and of course the phenom that is the laughing portrait are all VASTLY superior to the homegwon TH version used on the bust.
I best the maniacal laughing portrait could easily move the same ES as their own He-Man at 150 pieces? C'mon Tweeterhead!!

Would have been awesome if the heads were swappable like on the figure.

The laughing portrait on the lifesize would be incredible. Huge boost to presence and personality looking up like that.



Ach, the more I look at it, the more I notice little bits and bobs that throw me off. Gold on the forearm buckles, but silver on the belt buckle. The red gem on the sword pommel (presumably to match the chest gem, but it's not necessary IMO).

Hope so. Between that and my reward points, I could actually get this guy at a low-enough price that I wouldn't mind repainting him to my admittedly fussy heart's content.

Should have gone classic Power Sword for this.

I would doubt a cape. Skeletor never had a cape as a classic character, I’m almost positive the cape came in the New He-man line in 88 or 89 when he was “Space” Skeletor.

But yeah you’re right, a Classic power sword is a must here, along with a classic havoc staff like they have on the classic line.
Ohh and a discount..lol

[qz33]

I'm well aware but to purchase I'd much prefer a cape option than some piddly $75 or less discount.

Any word on when the Classic version will go up for preorder?

C'mon tweeterhead get the hype rolling!!!
