Masters of the Universe Origins Wave 10 comparisons

[Werewolf]

Mini comic Trap Jaw.

I prefer the vintage toy looks to the mini comics colors, but he does look really good standing with the mini comics Tri-Klops

[Werewolf]

Sun Man Digitino

Probably not the coolest looking of the Sun Man designs but he does get bonus points for the glow in the dark armor.

[Werewolf]

Vintage Whiplash vs Origins.

The Origins figure looks fantastic but lacks the rubber tail and twist waist tail lashing action of the vintage figure.

[Werewolf]

Vintage King Randor vs Origins.

Another fantastic update. The figure just looks awesome. The only downside is the re-used rubber cape from Keldor that lacks the medallions of the vintage fabric cape.

[Werewolf]

Teela and Zoar 2 pack

First up pony tail Teela.

Repaint of the first series Teela with a new head with a pony tail. Judging by the cobra sword the figure is probably an homage to the 2002 Teela. But it works just as well as an early mini comic Teela. I have to mention the 2002 Teela is a pain to stand. You basically have to balance her with her staff to keep her from tipping over.

[Werewolf]

Now for the biggest reason to buy the 2 pack, Zoar.

Vintage Zoar vs Origins.

At first glance you would think it was using the original Big Jim mold. It is really close. Normally vehicles and beasts in Origins are larger and more articulated. Zoar is exactly the same size as her vintage counterpart with the same wing flapping action. If I had to guess, they might have scanned the original toy and then digitally updated the sculpt. The colors are brighter and the white is almost pearlized. The new rocket pack has slightly smaller tail clip and is a tight fit on the vintage Zoar. The new stand has a larger base, which is awesome, and is much less tippy than the original. The vintage Zoar can perch on the new stand.

It's an awesome set. I hope we get a Screeech 2 pack.

I think Mattel is savvy to include a figure plus small vehicle or animal, as they have done with Zoar and Ground Ripper. I hope it continues with Screeech, Swiftwind, Mantisaur, etc.

I really like Whiplash, but I was very surprised that the tail is sculpted to fit into a joint that does not swivel. SMH.

[Werewolf]

I hope it continues with Screeech, Swiftwind, Mantisaur, etc.

I'm both surprised and disappointed we haven't got Swift Wind yet. Really popular and tons of mold re-use.

[PNGwynne]

I'm hoping we see Swiftwind with Adora or with She-Ra wearing Filmation headdress.

Mantisaur might be a good way to offer Shadow Weaver or Wrap-Trap.

[Earth 2 Chris]

King Randor is a must buy if I see him. I missed out on him and the Sorceress in the original line, because they FINALLY released them after I had stopped buying MOTU.
