Her arms feature bicep cuffs and wrist bracers with some sculpted scroll work patterns, and she has the standard barbarian boots with sculpted fur cuffs and wrappings. As far as paint blemishes go, it isn’t the worst, but it was impossible to detect in the package under that headpiece. ![]() Alas, mine has a paint flub in the form of a gold dot under the point of the left ram horn. The gold here isn’t terribly flashy, but it gets the job done. The sculpting here is great from the ram horns on her chest to the belt and other pieces of flourish. Not all warrior-babes can make that claim. She’s clad in her white and gold one-piece bathing suit-style armor, which probably isn’t the most practical for protection, but at least her mid-riff is covered. Teela comes packaged with her snake armor and headpiece on, but I’m going to set it aside for now to look at the basic figure. Let’s start out with the Heroic Warrior Goddess, Teela! But I’m honestly OK with that, as I’m sure it helped to keep the cost of the figures down. Alas, these packages are not collector friendly, so be prepared to tear into them to get your figures out. The Retro Play explosion points to the marrying of classic designs with new articulation, and you even get a mini-comic bundled behind the figure. The vintage style packaging is as awesome as ever, and while there’s no original art on the front, the cards are still personalized to each figure. So with that being said, let’s have a look at the first two ladies of the line: Teela and Evil-Lyn! So yeah, I’m pretty spineless when it comes to setting limitations for myself. Now I’ve picked up or pre-ordered just about everything the line has to offer, including the upcoming Castle Greyskull. ![]() Then I told myself I would just pick up He-Man and Skeletor to see what they’re all about. ![]() I swore I wouldn’t get into collecting these, because I already have a nearly complete collection of MOTU Classics. The new Masters of the Universe Origins line stands as a shining example of how my willpower, when it comes to toys, is total shit. ![]()
