Masters of the Universe Origins series 3 comparison pictures.

Vintage, commemorative and Origins.

Not surprisingly, Origins Panthor shares the same mold as Origins Battle Cat. A flocked Panthor is coming later this year as a Walmart exclusive.

Skeletor is happy.

[Werewolf]

Congrats everyone.

I've been relieved to hear how much easier these have been to get since the line is no longer exclusive to Walmart.

Don't get carried away WW, I've not seen wave 2 or 3--yet.

When does flocked Wally Panthor hit?

When does flocked Wally Panthor hit?

I don't think there is an official release date yet. Just a vague sometime this year for both the Walmart exclusive flocked Panthor and the Target exclusive Keldor and Kronis two pack.

I forgot to mention Screeech is on the Panthor box art so there's probably a good chance we'll get both Screeech and Zoar in Origins.

Panthor looks so naked to me without flocking.

Mer-Man

Vintage 12 back, commemorative and Origins.

The commemorative and Origins Merman have the painted green belt of the 8 back Merman. I always liked Mer-Man. One of my favs of Skeletor's minions. A fun character in the cartoon and great looking toy. A simple but effect use of parts that works very well and the new brighter colors really pop.

Roboto vintage and Origins. There wasn't a commemorative Roboto.

Series 3 of Origins marks the return of action features. Roboto has the same gear and jaw moving action feature of the vintage figure. The Origins Roboto does lack the green and orange gears you can see through the back of the figure and the semi hidden red plastic heart of the vintage figure. A little trivia on the vintage Roboto figure, the red dye used in the plastic of his legs, over time, has bleed into the silver paint on his legs turning it pink. Mine's not too bad.

Zodac vintage, commemorative and Origins.

The commemorative figure is more of a reddish brown in comparison to the original and the Origins figure is the usual brighter color.

Do you ever get the feeling you keep buying the same figures over and over again!?

Thanks again for the pics. I love all these comparison shots, and it is a neat glimpse into your collection.

Battle Armor He-Man vintage, commemorative and Origins.

The battle damage action feature works the same as the original figure. The spinning drum is narrower, however, which I imagine is due to how the arms attach on the Origins figures. The lightning bolt effects part, for the sword, is a little heavy and hard to balance. The additional vintage style head is a perfect color match for the series 1 He-Man, if you want to give him more of a retro look.

Ha, yeah! It's fun! I'm a little weird that way I guess.

She-Ra vintage, 35th anniversary and Origins.



Biggest differences between the 35th and Origins is the head sculpt and rooted hair versus molded hair. The accessories are also a slightly different shade and the Origins figure doesn't come with the comb axe. As I mentioned the 35th anniversary review th new figures do not have the inset rhinestones of the vintage figures. They are just painted on. The new She-Ra figures also sit better on Swift Wind than the vintage one due to the improved articulation.
