I thought the chests looked odd myself but honestly I’m just glad we don’t have swappable armor plates. The spinning chest feature was one of my favorite gimmicks in the original line.
The Human Crack-Ups! (Alternatively, you could say I had a Battle Armor Sheriff's Hot Wheels car as a kid.) I thought He-Man's armor looked narrow compared to the vintage version. I guess it's easier to notice when since He-Man doesn't have any significant features on his armor -- excluding the abdominal design.
The small window for the battle damage is even more weird when you consider the artwork uses the full size window as it appeared on the retro figures. Even on the figure art in the cross sell on the back.
Just as you mentioned with 2 points of reference in artwork they have released several cases of battle armor properly sized for wwe universe but wanted to make whole new sculpt and tooling for smaller window doesnt seem to cost effective
@@josephraya1417 Yep. That Skelcon first appeared in some comic. Either in the UK or with a record story book. I might be mixed up about where it first appeared. More characters and army builders would be more entertaining.
I guess the best option right now for a vintage skeletor head for origins is the one that comes with Keldor , my hopes are with Dragon Blaster Skeletor (if it gets released)
13:55 check out some of your soft-head Skeletor's. You'll see that they've got this ever-so tiny 'Mona Lisa' type smile going on. I'm glad they included the smile, though it's a lot more prominent now.
The vintage Battle Armor He-Man is the first action figure I remember owning. Found him at a flea market when I was 3 or 4. Never had the Power Sword with him but did have the axe. As a kid that chest mechanism was one of the coolest features. After that most of my He-Man figs came from the store, including the "cartoon He-man" as I called him but this first one always held a special place to me. And of course I grabbed the Origins version.
I saw these two guys randomly at a target a week or so ago before I decided to collect the line, and stupidly left them on the shelf assuming they would be plentiful. Now that I know how bad this line is being scalped I realize how lucky I was to even see them in the wild, and I’m gutted I didn’t snag them as I fear I won’t see them again for many months. Here’s hoping the scalpers give up on monopolizing this line as it really has taken a lot of joy out of hunting these down.
@@SeansModelBuilds2017 my only original childhood figure that survived is tongue lashor. I’ve since aquired much of the vintage figures I had as a kid though.
they started carrying some of the 2020 figures in Target stores near me so Saturday I picked up He-Man, Skeletor, and Battle Cat, if they get Panthor I'll get him as well, I might get a few additional figures as they get them in stock, but we'll see, so far very pleased with the set I've started.
I'm glad they have the alternate heads, the newer heads (though they're decent sculpts) just do not look like the characters. Its really been my only gripe about the line, on the other hand the slight updates on characters like Evil-Lyn and Battlecat were a homerun imo.
@@MassHystarix Right, I probably should have elaborated on that a little more. They don't have the same appearance of the original toys. You can still tell its supposed to be them of course.
@@facetina Well Big Bad Toy Store has Mosquitor up for pre-order so, although there's no pics yet, I'd say he's more than a rumor now. And he's listed as a deluxe figure so he's gotta have some kind of action feature right?
These are great, but I wish Mattel would use the vintage color shades. The darker purple on vintage BA Skeletor looks so much better. I wish they would use the vintage He-Man ax and Power Sword hilt, too.
This line is tremendous fun. My kids and I have a blast playing with them. My complaint is that they're missing the mark with the fine details; the width of the chest plate, He-man's wave 1 face sculpt and battle armour Skeletor's face sculpt. They get 90% there then screw up the fine details
It's a marketing strategy... They "improve"and modernize the successful vintage toys, except then purposefully give the main guys new ugly faces so we have to buy the 2.0 version of the exact fig we ready bought, just for that "new upgraded" head sculpt, which is the one we should've got in the 1st place!! Or maybe to force collectors with OCD to purchase duplicate versions, in order to complete a wave .. Maybe throw in a new sword/shield to sweeten the "deal"!!
Dan, i'm guessing the smaller action is to make room for a retooled action and make it more reliable. My vintage BA He-Man and Skeletor got to the point where flipping it back to look clean wouldn't hold anymore. It would only stay double damaged. But again, just a guess
I have and never have had any he man figures, never seen anything from the shows, I just want battle armor skeletor and that shark tank thing from the Origins line I’ve wanted Skeletor for a while, he looks like a fun desk toy, but I saw that shark thing, whatever it was called, on BBTS and I need it It’s a shark, with guns, and it’s hot pink! Edit: I remembered the name! Land Shark!
That’s so odd that the armor piece on the vintage figures look so much better without a doubt, from the paint job to the battle damage feature button being wider. Kinda frustrating that they updated everything but when making deluxe figures they wanted to save money? 🤨
I was born in 81’ so when I discovered Masters of the Universe the battle damage He-Man and Skelelor were my introduction to the figures. These look amazing. Although I’m not getting the Origin line, I may have to pick these up.
I love them! Yes, the logo on He-man does look a bit tiny for such a mighty man, but i am ok with it becaus of the other things those figures bring. This is good, something positive and fun, and we all need something positive and fun, even if it is figures and toys. Great review and closer look on these figures Dan!
Gimmie gimmie gimmie! I really like these. The smaller "battle damage" areas dont really bother me as much as the way the arms seem to stick out from the torso. The alternate head sculpts are what sold me on this line.
They should've switched up the half molds for the power sword, so then you'd have two halves that are purple and two halves that are silver, if you've bought the standard and battle armor variants.
Never liked having to buy the same figures for something you can pretend like “battle damage “ but the accessories are the real draw. Mattel is killing the retro game!
Yep. The old figures had pegs coming out of the chest that went into the arm. These have to have room for the pegs to insert into the sides of the chest.
Love both of these. Another great video Dan. ♥ ♥ MOTU I know some fans complain about the smaller armour plate. I can only imagine the arms have larger joints inside the bodies.
The new action feature is much faster than the old one. With the old one you can see how the reel turns slowly. Not with the new one, it's lightning fast and therefore deceptively real. So a good improvement. The mainspring was in the middle of the old role. The new one probably has two tension springs, one on the left and one on the right. And that's exactly where you need the space. So it's a good thing.
Found these today overseas in Spanish packaging! I bought these Immediately!!!!!! I was like a kid in a toy store...these are amazing! The articulation is perfect for this line+!!
like ! you really are the best! svp, Did the 80s version of HE-MAN battle armor have a spring in the hip for the punch? thank you for the reply, Bise from France.
Two things. First, I can have Skeletor hold the Havoc Staff and his Power Sword at the same time on the first release already. Second I know why he’s smiling, it’s cause he’s fighting! Like he said in the Christmas special “I like fights! Fights are fun!” Haha.
I recently got Battle Armor Skeletor and I'm not disappointed. Growing up, I never had the Battle Armor figures... my dad got me "the Originals". I love the two head options. The default head reminds me of Skeletor's expressions from the 2002 series. It's this seething angry look he frequently gives Beast Man... or Whiplash when he doesn't take the hint. The other head is more like when he's about the get the drop on King Randor, or Evil-Lyn has given him some "good" news.
I remember finding a battle armor he-man from the original line back when it was new on the toy isle of a Roses store:(this shows how long ago this was), someone obviously took it out of the package and left it on the shelf, and I don’t know who did it though, and this was the only time I saw one of the original version of this toy back when it was new; I thought I’d share that with everyone, but that’s my two cents, and happy new year to you and yours dan🎊🎉.!
I surmise that they used the standard Origins arms with the plug on the arm. Recall on the vintage line the arm plug onto a shoulder knob on the torso. Replacing the "outie" with an "innie" takes up interior space, necessitating the smaller drum. I would theorize the arms aren't removable due to the drum, either to prevent access or damage to the mechanism, or perhaps the arm pegs support the drum.
The new He-Man Origins head with open mouth is not better. I really happy, they added the vintage design head to this set. I always will use the vintage look of He-Man for display, why I have bought the Exclusive Power-Con He-Man/Prince Adam set twice to get these also loose in my collection. Hoping when Origins versions of Thunder Punch He-Man and Flying Fists He-Man will release Mattel also add the vintage head, too.
I love Masters of the Universe, especially the Origins figures. They remind me so much of the vintage toys I had as a kid. Pixel Dan is the man. Thanks Pixeldanor.
Hey Dan, I need some advice. I recently found a battle armor skeletor at Target. Problem is, he's missing his left hand. It's not in the package anywhere, and the bubble does not appear to have been disturbed. Should I email Mattel and send them pics? What do you think they'd do for me? I also bought it bc it was the only one in town, otherwise sold out in my area...
Alternate head will go on the original He-man and the Prince Adad head will go on this He-man. And the grinning Skeletor will go on my original Skeletor.
What made me reluctant to get these guys is how common they are at both Target and Wal-Mart. I never thought I'd see the day when He-Man and Skeletor would ride the pegs... with a clone army! (Meanwhile, anyone who isn't He-Man or Skeletor, or Battle Cat, goes fast!)
I know no one will probably know the answer, but...….. why did Dan's Battle Armor He Man have orange straps on the boots? Mine arrived today and just brown and yellow at the top same as standard. A Google search shows it to be about 50/50! So, collectors, keep an eye out for this!! I'll just paint them on but still, useless information for those that care :)
as a kid who likes motu and didnt grow up in the 80s, its nice that these origin figures exist because its been so hard to collect the og motu action figures cause they cost so much. finally, affordable motu action figures to collect!!!!!!!1 i have mer man so far
Even without the removable arms they are still ball joints unlike the old school ones, so the joint still goes into the body which I am sure takes up space inside.
I took the Skeletor head from the target exclusive Keldor 2 pack, (the head with the sparkly gemstone eyes) and put it on the body of the NEW Revelations Skeletor figure and it looks AMAZING!!!
Good question! I do, I actually make an incision on the packaging on the side, then I take out everything except the comic, I keep all of them in a box.
This line is super-freaking cool. My Battle Armor figures arrive in two days' time! I cannot wait to swap out those heads with my existing Origins figures! (The original Origins Skeletor has that fun open jaw, but his red eyes are just too big for my taste.) Thanks for another excellent video!
I still prefer the old figures and the way they look and maybe it has to do with the way the old logo looks, it's wider and the old figures armor finish is much better too.
I thought the chests looked odd myself but honestly I’m just glad we don’t have swappable armor plates. The spinning chest feature was one of my favorite gimmicks in the original line.
The Human Crack-Ups! (Alternatively, you could say I had a Battle Armor Sheriff's Hot Wheels car as a kid.)

True, that stupid vintage bs is stupid and annoying just like the He-Man Filmation fans themselves.
what a throwback. love these, getting. saw a few people hate on the skeletor's head, i genuinely like it.
I like it better then the open mouth version on the first skeletor release
The head is a disaster
Lol
Wow, I assumed the little tiny battle damage area was due to the arm sockets... might still be, but not because of the swappable arms. Weird.
Seems like someone mis judged the length. Wish they had the original ones.
The small window for the battle damage is even more weird when you consider the artwork uses the full size window as it appeared on the retro figures. Even on the figure art in the cross sell on the back.
Seems to be a last minute cost cutting exercise to bring these in line with the retail price.
Yes your right. That is even weirder choice by Mattel.
Just as you mentioned with 2 points of reference in artwork they have released several cases of battle armor properly sized for wwe universe but wanted to make whole new sculpt and tooling for smaller window doesnt seem to cost effective
Crazy how we find them on clearance for around $4-6 nowadays
I'm with you on the sword thing - having a half-and-half with Skeletor is great, but I wish they'd released a "full" version. Maybe in a weapons pack?
Honestly might just buy the swords on their own, and glue them together, then paint them the same color.
Weapons pack? I dream of this as well. So many of the figures come with lame weapons it would be great to have some options.
I would love it if Mattel would release a “Skeletor Robot Knight” and “Eternian Palace Guard” as army builders.
Yes, and some army builders based on the comics and movie and cartoon soldiers and minions of the different factions.
@@johnhammertron that would also be awesome
What about skelcon that character that came with classics roton
@@josephraya1417 Yep. That Skelcon first appeared in some comic. Either in the UK or with a record story book. I might be mixed up about where it first appeared.
More characters and army builders would be more entertaining.
Palace guard figures are available as kits for Man-At-Arms.
Who is in charge of the Skeketor heads, they all seem a bit too wacky.
Apparently NOBODY.
... let's be honest... they are crap :-(
The smiling Skeletor head reminds me of the Christmas special Skeletor. I am not nice!
I actually like all of them.

And of course I grabbed the Origins version.
The original figure's arm didn't peg into the torso, so there was extra space for the play feature.
I kind of want to use the shouting head, along with the power effect with Prince Adam for a mid transformation kind of display.

I don't suppose you kept your Vintage Figures from your childhood?
@@SeansModelBuilds2017 my only original childhood figure that survived is tongue lashor. I’ve since aquired much of the vintage figures I had as a kid though.
They’re both available for MSRP through Wal-Mart’s website right now. I ordered them last week.
I have these on preorder, mostly for the vintage style heads. I'm really disappointed these "deluxe" figures don't have full swords. Ugh.
i really dont like that the he-man logo is so small on the armor
i like the smaller one more cause it looks more realistic. 😉
That doesn’t only offend my strict retro sensibilities, the original design was aesthetically excellent. This looks awful
Wave 69 being released. Still only have partial wave 1 at all 6 of my local Walmart’s. Wtffff
Meanwhile in Australia. Nothing. 😓
Meanwhile in UK... nada 😂
It released only in US. Nothing on EU and it is only limited.

Cheap knockoffs

@@MassHystarix Right, I probably should have elaborated on that a little more. They don't have the same appearance of the original toys. You can still tell its supposed to be them of course.
Seeing the action feature intact on these makes me hopeful that the rumored Mosquitor will have a blood-pumping feature.
Mosquitor's pump is a necessity!

The European version has a metallic way more shiny armor and no painted straps.

Hi Dan! Personally I think vintage version is much better, but it's a great review like always, thanks! 🤘😎
The windows are smaller because of the shoulder pegs. Simple as that.
Ding! Ding! Ding! I don't understand the confusion surrounding this. The shoulder joint has to go somewhere, whether the arms come off or not.
Yep. The old figures had pegs coming out of the chest that went into the arm. These have to have room for the pegs to insert into the sides of the chest.
I know right, I thought it was obvious
Well rotating drum can be hollowed in the ends, a little more effort can surely address that squished look of the battle arrnor.
@@mmarquez5765 true, probably wanted to avoid spending the money that would be needed to make that possible.
Love both of these. Another great video Dan. ♥ ♥ MOTU
I know some fans complain about the smaller armour plate. I can only imagine the arms have larger joints inside the bodies.
You are right Dan that Skeletors battle armor looks better because the design creates an illusion that disguises the smaller damage area.
Great review as always!
Would love to see you touch on the single card Eternia Minis that are showing up at Targets.
Good Journey!
The new action feature is much faster than the old one. With the old one you can see how the reel turns slowly. Not with the new one, it's lightning fast and therefore deceptively real. So a good improvement. The mainspring was in the middle of the old role. The new one probably has two tension springs, one on the left and one on the right. And that's exactly where you need the space. So it's a good thing.
I use the 200x head sculpt on Battle Armor Skeletor. It just looks good on the armored body.
I had battle armour He-Man and Skeletor as a kid in the 80’s.
I still have my Battle Armour He-Man from back then. My Skeletor is the Dragon Blaster Version though.
Found these today overseas in Spanish packaging! I bought these Immediately!!!!!! I was like a kid in a toy store...these are amazing! The articulation is perfect for this line+!!
You are right, He-Man's armor looks strange.
Fun review. I got my BA skelator last week at target. Can’t wait to find he-man though
like !
you really are the best! svp, Did the 80s version of HE-MAN battle armor have a spring in the hip for the punch?
thank you for the reply, Bise from France.
I remember the same thing. But maybe im mixing memories with another toy.
Digging the shiny paint in the slashes. Hope I see these around me some day.

Man I remember being a kid in the 80s and playing with these with my Dad.
I love all He-man toys, but I gotta say... I think Matty Collector and Super7 handled their sculpts better.
You mean the Four Horsemen handled the sculpting better. They did all the Classics figures, are not doing Origins, and it shows.

I feel like many including myself would want to buy this purely based on the head and (now I didn’t know until this review, the boots too)!
When I was a kid I found money on the ground at the State Fair and I bought the original pair with it...
I only wanted He Man for the vintage head but once I got both, Skeletor is the best one out of the 2 by far.
That smirk Skeletor face is amazing.

It used to bother me the barrel was smaller but the more I see them the more it looks fine. Great review as usual!!
thanks. i just got this figure finally and i dont open mine and was wondering why the arm had a big hole on the top but its common i see
I feel like a lot of people are just going to buy it for the original style head.
No doubt !
These were always my favorite variants.
The original He man looks so much better. The new skeletor is okay.
They looks awesome in their packages. 😀
I love Masters of the Universe, especially the Origins figures. They remind me so much of the vintage toys I had as a kid. Pixel Dan is the man. Thanks Pixeldanor.

Are they going to Come out with Faker He Man &Battle Armer Faker He Man
Awesome video. As soon as I see these in the stores I definitely want to pick them up. I really love these new MOTU figures.
8:44: I 100% agree! 😉👏🏻🏆
What made me reluctant to get these guys is how common they are at both Target and Wal-Mart. I never thought I'd see the day when He-Man and Skeletor would ride the pegs... with a clone army! (Meanwhile, anyone who isn't He-Man or Skeletor, or Battle Cat, goes fast!)
Nice review the evil skeletor head an the old he man one are nice
My battle armour Skeletor head doesn't have a big smirk. The mouth is quite straight on mine. I love that head sculpt.
I bought this figure just for the head, so I'll use it in the normal He-Man
Good idea. I think I may do the same.
@@hans4462 Go ahead, it's better than buying the new he-man with that head.
I know no one will probably know the answer, but...….. why did Dan's Battle Armor He Man have orange straps on the boots?

Do you keep the card backs to your figures out toss the packaging? I imagine you can't keep everything.
Good question! I do, I actually make an incision on the packaging on the side, then I take out everything except the comic, I keep all of them in a box.
7:56 - 8:47 100% with Dan 👍

It would be great to have an insight on the engineering behind this line... Maybe an idea for a future interview 😜
Another outstanding video my friend pixel Dan, congratulations amazing collection you have

This line is super-freaking cool. My Battle Armor figures arrive in two days' time! I cannot wait to swap out those heads with my existing Origins figures! (The original Origins Skeletor has that fun open jaw, but his red eyes are just too big for my taste.) Thanks for another excellent video!
5:10 I think they just wanted to re use the normal versions arms instead of making a new arm mold
I got the original when I was a kid . These were my favorite
When you say " it's comparison time!", That's when I click "like"😂
Not sure if my battle armor He-Man was a second wave but there are no paint decos on the boots. Im a bit sad about that.
The vintage figures look so much better imo seems like Mattel kinda cheaped out on these
I have got to find these! Great offering!
I still prefer the old figures and the way they look and maybe it has to do with the way the old logo looks, it's wider and the old figures armor finish is much better too.
Excellent video. Pixel Dan. I love that figures
