MOTU Origins Buzz Saw Hordak variant found!

[enyawd72]

Mattel revamped the eye/face paint on Buzz Saw Hordak.

There are THREE versions...

The top "red eyes" version that matches the vintage figure, with gray face paint.

The middle "transition eyes" with black face paint.

The bottom "small eyes" version matches the first Origins release.

I don't begrudge variants, I like these. And I wish there was a variant Stratos.

But it's hard to find MOTU Origins period, let alone in variation.

Thing with this one, is it's a TRUE running change production variant, not an artificially manufactured one. Fans expressed their dislike for the face on the first Hordak release, so Mattel changed it for this release.
That's why they are also reissuing regular He-Man and Skeletor with the vintage heads and full swords.

Thanks, I didn't know about He-Man and Skeletor--are they out?

Why three Hordak variants then? I wonder which one I'll get from BBTS?

Not sure if they're out yet...I think the middle Hordak head is a transition one.

There's also a running change on She-Ra. Much better face paint with eyelashes and highlights in the eyes. Looks way better. Night and day improvement.

I'm interested in such variants at reasonable prices if folks here find them or have duplicates.

I got the "vintage" head variant, I'm thrilled!!!!!

My deluxe version differs from the standard one. I'm happy having 2 out of the 3. I don't think any of mine look like the bottom picture with the hardly any red eye socket.

Oh, I just found the latest variant. It looks pretty cool, and MAN the buzz saw sure does fly!!
