I just really, really, really like the 200x redesign. That's my preferred Mer-Man headsculpt
The problem for me lies more with that overly puffy torso they keep using. That throws off proportions in my eye, and it even winds up being too tight for armor in some cases, namely He-Man himself.For me the only issue is the head is a tad small. Look at the proportion of head to torso on the vintage figure and then onbthis new one. The ratio is off. If the head on this new figure were about 15% bigger it would be perfect.
and he's VERY shocked by whoever did it to him!Thankfully, I haven't been interested in the vintage Masterverse figures. I like the New Eternia ones better overall. Vintage Teela doesn't look good to me. And Merman looks like he's had his chest ripped open to expose some raw flesh underneath.
Mine has that same problem! It's like the right hip doesn't fit into the body far enough. Big gap that I can't seem to fix.Definitely all valid critiques. I tend to set my expectations for this line, but they could certainly use better articulation schemes that are standard on so many modern lines. And I'm feeling it with the off-center overlays too. Something about Hordak's hood is not sitting symmetrically with his head and it drives me nuts. One of my Teela's has a weird off-centered pelvic overlay, that or her right leg isn't plugging all the way in or something. Unintentional asymmetry is a total idiosyncrasy for me.
