Masters of the Universe: Origins

Wow, they're really stretching the word 'Deluxe' there on Beast Man. He's 7 millimetres taller than He-Man and comes with one accessory: DELUXE!

Did you see a height listing? I missed that. I assumed he was much bigger based on display photos when they debuted the line. I figured they were doing a similar pack out to their Thundercats line: three regular sized figures and one larger (Lion-O, Cheetara, Battle Cat-Man, Skel-Ra). Skel-Ra is significantly larger than the regular figures. Then again, Battle Cat-Man is also larger, but only slightly. I hope Beast Man isn't that kind of large. In the second wave, Panthro reused that BCM body. Tygra and He-Man share Lion-O's body.

No no, that's a fake number. I was just being flippant about companies using the word 'deluxe' to justify increased pricing where I don't feel it's warranted.
 
I really like the 200X designs but I am realizing a bunch of house repairs this year really crushed me. I've been faithfully preordering Origins since wave 3 and I'm holding off on starting another branching off of the line. They're cool, but I think I'm tapping the brakes for now.
 
I'm tapping the breaks on the 200X too. I will continue to get whatever they offer in the regular Origins or Filmation Cartoon Origins. But I don't need to be buying these characters all over again, for a 3rd time, in the same line.

Honestly, I'd prefer they handled the 200X line like they did their first releases of 200X He-Man and Skeletor. Not cartoon based but vintage toy based. And hell, at least that first 200X He-Man actually came with his sword, shield, and axe. This 200X Cartoon He-Man just has the sword.

The 200X Cartoon figures look good don't get me wrong. I love anything He-Man. But I just don't need to do this.
