    Cheers for the link Kup.

    It certainly seems that he truly appreciated all that was awarded to him and now he's a serving member of the American Armed Forces... Apart from the, up until now, non-produced figure the whole story played out quite positively.
    It'll be interesting to read the follow-up piece that will surely show his reaction to seeing the figure for the 1st time, you'll have to keep us posted on that dude.

    I really am quite shocked how Pixel Dan does his reviews at times, he rips heads off and moves the limbs like he doesnt care if he breaks the figure.... I guess coz he has lots of the same figure but still....

    That and I don't think he pays a cent for them does he?
    (The ones he uses in reviews at least )

    He does it to show off articulation/or features and he does get the review figures for free from Mattel.

    I think that he actually has a sub in which his actual 'collection' figures arrive. I am not sure what he does with the Review figures though.

    Finally got around to having a look at those vids.

    Man, did they mess up the sorceress or what? I was really looking forward to that, but not with those wings. Shadow Weaver looks nice and I am very tempted for Photog. lol.

    Too bad I am not keen on digital river though. Sorry Matty

    The He-Man.org boards is filled with diagrams and suggestions on 'how it should have been done'. A lot of it is actually simpler that what they went with.

    It seems that Mattel just did a half a$$ed effort on it as it could have certainly been done better with the same silly 'open wings' effect.

    Yeh considering how the Classics Market is most likely collectors, since it's only available online, you'd think they know that their consumers are less likely to be influenced by 'action features' over look of the character.

    Only just got around to watching that Sorceress video... yeh the wings are borked, but i don't think they changed much from the prototype did they?
    Looks to me very similar, like it was screwed from the beginning and no one noticed!
