@durendal I'm not saying you're wrong. It just that everyone has their own idea of what Skeletor should look like based on whatever episode they have the best memory of.

Got The Stranger Things Skeletor set after all, because I like the colors and the modified 1st release head (less crazy).
Also there is so little going on in the “Vintage Collection”, I needed something.
The freaky Demogorgon is cool, and I love the washes and colors on both figs. Muted, darker Skeletor looks great!
Quality lacks a bit, Skeletor sucks at holding his weapons, especially the sword. Joints are not great either. Different factory I guess!
Still a nicely designed exclusive. Will probably get He-Man / Vecna too. Good monsters for Skeletor to summon!

They moved production from China to Vietnam sense the line started.

@durendal not really. I've noticed a small dip in quality. And I don't think working conditions are much better.

Not sure when the change happened, but at some point they had figured it out and they had all pretty good joints. Fan Favorites, CC and Turtles seem to be ok, but the “Vintage line” exclusives that *don’t* come from Creations are hit and miss.
My Screech Skeletor is a bobble head, Lord Gr’Asp is pretty loose all around, Stranger Skeletor had frozen knees and can’t hold the sword, Demogorgon’s arms are already loosening,… Reptilax is great though.
CC joints seem pretty good all around, the ones I have. Quite tight. I was impressed with the new buck. The ToG, the handful that I have are ok-ish. Could be tighter but not bad.
@smitty-81 I'm just saying de-coupling from China must be a priority for the West. Vietnam is a far lesser evil.

I gotta agree with @durendal dude. I am sure we can find a crappy cel that matches any crappy version of cartoon Skeletor figure they put out but the Super7 one matches the good shit that Filmation would use over and over again to save cash. The Mattel cartoon figure was good too but I remember Super7 improved it somehow but I can't remember how.
@kraken idk. Everyone has their "ideal" look for any character but you do make a good point about using the right piece of animation to use when making an action figure.

Just throwing it out there that there is a MOTU drop on 10/1 according to EE's 'drop zone'.
@kraken it could be the full wave, or any of the timed Walmart exclusives.

We have the Power!
I’ve said it before, but the fact that face and visor look a bit strange and different, makes me want to get him actually lol
I don’t really need a figure that looks pretty much like the vintage design
If I hold that figure outside my car window will this happen?🤣
