Good figure if you can look past the open mouth.
There's a surplus of Origins Skeletor and He-Man action figures available everywhere, and impossible to find many of the other figures in this line. Mattel's distribution is disastrous to say the least. This Skeletor has a very peculiar head sculpt, unlike its vintage counterpart's head sculpt, which featured better details of the skull, this one has a permanent open mouth that can be difficult getting used to. Nevertheless, the figure is excellent, posable and perfect for kids and adult collectors alike.

Just what it's meant to be!
This new Origins line it's a very good one, specially for kids to play with and their parents to remember what it was like to have and play with the vintage versions of those figures back in the day! For collectors it's Ok, not a premium line but good enough for their price, you get what you paid for and I don't think MOTU fans should be disappointed!With all that said, this Skelly is a pretty solid figure very representative of it's vintage 80's figure with the new modern twists! Package was Ok but not very mint for those who collect carded, I planned to open it anyway so I didn't mind that much.

Looks good
It’s still in the packaging but looks like a cool figure. I remember Masters of the Universe cartoons when I was a child in the 80s and hope my 3yr old son will love these. Also purchased He-man and both matching animals (tiger and panther). Buying them for Christmas. He loves dinos and lions/tigers so the animals will be loved. This is a good intro to bigger kid type toys and play for him. $13 for a figure seems a bit much but I guess it’s inflation. This is the same price as in Target

So good
I cannot explain the weird world of collectible Masters of the Universe toys, but this is about as affordable as they get, and this toy is everything you could ever want for introducing your kid to the cherished toys their parent had at their age. This improves on the design of the original toy in every way, except the ways that would make it unfamiliar in style. This is the Skeletor you know and love, only a lot more poseable. Compared to other retro lines coming out, this is roughly the same price range, for a character that is at least three times the average size, and who has accessorises (which many retro lines do not). If you want a classic stiff type He-Man or Skeletor, feel free to go out there and spend a fortune getting the exact original, but this has the same basic look and style, only this dude can be posed on your shelf, which makes sense for the body-builder type of look that the Masters of the Universe have. You might as well scoop up a Battlecat too for around 20. Based on every other toy in the series having inflated pricing, let me go ahead and break it down to you: You can get He-Man, Skeletor, plus their female counterparts, and the two big cats. All of those at the time of this review were available for affordable prices. All the rest are at least ten dollars more. There are only a few exceptions, which are the ones that feature characters you never heard of (which I just wantto say, as a kid we TOTALLY preferred the weird characters we never heard of, but things change).UPDATE: The arms are not designed right, because even after carefully breaking-in each joint, there is still a basic flaw in the design when you pivot the arms at the shoulder joint. They fall off their n a way that is basically unavoidable. I think this will in no way effect collectors who are leaving this figure posed, but for those of us ripping it open to play with it, they did too much by making i this articulate. My score has been reduced by one star. I should do more but I really appreciate the retro lines so I’m not r yet sling off any more than one star for the arms falling off often.

He will get you He-Man!
Seriously, how does Skeletor never pose a real threat to He-Man!? He is jacked up, he cheats to win, has a magical staff and a power sword! This toy gives him a chance though. It’s well built. My only gripe is the sword isn’t exactly like the original toys. Like Skeletor though, you can’t have everything your way.

Excelente para colección
A pesar de ser un producto básico debido a que hay presentaciones que incluyen otra cabeza y demás, esta muy bien presentado, ideal para coleccionar, los colores y su tamaño son similares a los productos de antaño por lo que he quedado muy complacido por el producto, en cuanto al cuidado en el envío, puede decir que llego bien, sin ambargo un poco más de papel en el interior hubiera sido recomendable para evitar un doblez con el que llego, sin embargo y a pesar de ello, quedo muy contento con el producto y la rapidez en su envío.
