MOTU so far

I will say despite the she-ra face disaster I am loving this collection. Stratos and Mer-man are the standouts for me so far. I have Hordak and Sorceress on the way. I even like Evil-Lyn better than I thought I would from pictures. Her skin tone is a bit strange but the cotton candy swirls as someone else called them are actually a transparent pink unlike the promo pics and look better in person.

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.
Exactly why it makes it so much more frustrating. Stand-alone She-Ra is stunning and looks like a woman. And the sword is proportionate to her as well. Instead the She-Ra on Swiftwind looks like a child playing dress-up. Total fail and disappointment.

Also, I agree with you, the rest of the collection looks great!

Like I see some of these spot on and amazing sculpts coming out from Iron Studios on several of their licenses and with She Ra on Swiftwind it?s like they let the newbie sculptor on the team have play time learning how to do a face sculpt for the first time. Like WHAT happened? Her face comes across as so lazy and amateur in comparison to a lot of other pieces they are producing. I have 0% hope it?s getting modified this late in the game despite the outcries from fans. Holding onto hope Tweeterhead does one in their 1/6 line!!

Great pic! Mer-Man looks way better than I expected. Might try to track him down. I do have the She-Ra/Swift Wind on pre-order. Face is not a dealbreaker for me . . I think the statue overall looks really nice and will anchor my display area with Skeletor on throne and deluxe He-Man. Hoping to see Clawful and Buzz-Off added to this line soon.

I went ahead and pre-ordered her too. Despite all my complaining about the face overall I just still have to have it!! I really hope they continue this line with more characters! I would love to see Two-bad!!

Well if we're posting wants...

I'm here for Roboto, Sy-Klone and Spikor.

Though there's plenty of others I'd be excited for.

Everything from the neck down looks good except for battle cats eyes which should be solid glowing yellow

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.
