MOTU Masterverse series 1 comparisons

[Werewolf]

Masterverse are the same scale as Classics. Masterverse He-Man being in the tall range of Classics, like 87 movie He-Man. Masterverse have new pinless joints and double jointed elbows and knees. The new figures don't suffer from the loose ankle problems MOTUC figures had. Definitely a different sculpt style than Classics. The figures do look much better in person than in many of the promo shots. The retail price is $19.99 which is the same price MOTUC started at 13 years ago. The price is really reasonable for this level of articulation and quality.

Skeletor

I would have preferred they gave him a bright yellow skull like he had in the cartoon.

Evil-Lyn

In the box Lyn's neck looks way too short. You can fix this by pulling the head slightly up on the neck peg. The head still stays on and the joint still works but it no longer looks like she has a super short neck. I like the Masterverse figures more than I thought I would after seeing the initial promo shots. I still don't plan on getting all of them, though. I don't care for all of the Revelations updates but I will be getting the more traditional looking figures.

[Werewolf]

Mossman

No flocking, no pine scent and no club. His accessories are just a bunch of extra hands. More of a Swamp Thing than mossy look. The heads of the Masterverse figures so far have all been on the small size and Mossman is no different. In fact his head is crazy small. Not sure if this is a style just for the Revelations figures or if they will continue this for all Masterverse figures.
