I always enjoy your reviews, especially your MOTU ones. This Man at Arms is really great, and I've barely put him down since he arrived. You mentioned how he could probably work with vehicles, and he sits in the Classics Wind Raider just fine. New Eternia has really become my "must have" portion of Masterverse, and I hope it continues for quite awhile.
New Eternia has easily been my favourite "branch" of Masterverse. I like seeing the re-designs, integrating ideas from the prototypes and somethings other incarnations. It helps give the figures a new breath of fresh air. As a 200X fan, I'd like to get more elements from those versions - say we get NE Rattlor, I'd like a chest armour of some kind, for example - and I'd like to see more "non-vintage" era characters get a New Eternia makeover like some of the Space Mutants, Wun-Dar, the Green/Eternian Goddess or Anti-Eternia He-Man, but generally they've been my favourite part of an already great line.
Great review as usual! I think you are the first reviewer that mentioned conquistador look, which is imo fairly obvious, even if you don't know the history of the characters Since the first time I saw the new helmet and the shape of his moustaches that's all I could see. :D Kudos to Mattel for making the helmet removable as if they didn't do so I would probably pass on this one as I really don't like the new helmet and I don't like my Man at arms without moustaches. :D The only thing I really dislike is the way they did his leg armour. It makes no sense to make it non-removable when every other piece of armour can be taken off.

Great review. I always enjoy your MOTU content.
