He-Man on Battlecat - Page 52

I'm most impressed by the sculpt on He-Man. Looks absolutely fantastic! Just imagine how this will look with Skeletor/Panthor squared up against him. I'll be very interested to see how other figures fit into this line . . whether it becomes a giant puzzle where everyone has a place like in the painting or what exactly.

battlecat is HUGE, this is such an awesome piece. Im so happy tweeterhead made this, cant wait for skeletor and panthor

Regarding the weight - I would say the base is lighter than you would expect it to be just by looking at it. It feels like a thick fiberglass, not saying that?s what it is but thats just how it feels. Battlecat is most of the weight of this statue it feels pretty solid. Each back paw has a large key with a metal rod, one is probably the largest Ive seen on a statue. I think the engineering behind this is sound, Igo said they put a lot into that with this project

Paint is very clean, this is such an awesome representation of the art from the classic packaging. Battlecats tongue is nice and glossy which contrasts well with his fur and helmet. He-man is all business and again the paint is super clean. Paint on the base looks really good, subtle highlights and shading really bring it to life

Homerun from tweeterhead, Id say if this is something youre considering you wont be disappointed

Great picture!

That’s exactly how I felt, surprised by the size. One thing though, my cat has two large keys but only one key has the metal rod - yours has one in each key?

Edit - ignore me! I misremembered. One huge rod and one small ��

The gold accents on Battlecat's saddle & mask do a lot to elevate this to look real and really make it deluxe.

I don't know why I held off for so long but I placed my order yesterday.. it's going to be my first Tweeterhead/MOTU statue..
My plan is to display him next to the upcoming Skeletor and Panthor maquette.

I ordered the He-Man piece as well and plan to do the same. This is my first Tweeterhead piece.

SS now showing Almost Sold Out instead of Low Stock Remaining on ordering page. Placed my order . . looking forward to this one!

Demona · 09-06-2023, 08:10 AM

I really hope Sold Out means Sold Out. That would be huge to TH because this piece is a labor of love and it's nice to see others love it too!

Got #180 out of 1000 in today. Overall, this is great! Here are a few iPhone pics. Even though this is 1/6 scale, it has a great presence. My first Tweeterhead piece and I can't wait to order the Skeletor/Panthor companion piece.

congrats brother, its such a rad piece. i always thought it was cool, knew that skeletor would be a possible order but man seeing this in person was just like "yeah, i need to make room for that". these will make such a great pair

Thanks. I agree that seeing it in person helped push me towards ordering. I was able to gauge the size better. It has the size of a large 1/4 scale single figure piece.
