    Yeah it's just a gloss finish on the helmet and saddle.

    Yeah totally. That’s what I’ve been doing, just crazy to see people actually finding stuff in stores.

    So I may have been going off the deep end with my designs for origins... started with a few basic skulls.

    Then decided that there needs to be a full skeleton warrior in 5.5 in scale... so yeah.

    I received my v2 Origins He-Man with vintage head but it's one of the units that includes the half Power Sword instead of the full one.

    Fortunately, I can make my own accessories now.

    And I also received some nice 3D printed items from Mega Customx.

    As well as Origins Orko.

    All in all, a good mail day.

    Looks good man! I love the sword pointing hand. Speaking of 3D prints, does anybody know where I can get some power sword ones? The updated He-Man and Skeletor are cool, but I don't want to buy a figures I basically already have just for the swords.

    Thanks!

    I'm working on getting my 3D printing up to snuff but I'm not quite ready to offer products for sale yet. Otherwise, I would hook you up with a full Power Sword immediately.

    Two guys I recommend for 3D printed MotU accessories are Mega Customx and Rbl3D. Both have Facebook accounts. If you just want full standard Power Swords, I recommend Rbl3D.

    Mega Customx has a cool Horde themed one:

    I'm optimistic about the odds these are from the '87 movie. What other movie He-Man and Skeletor could these be?

    I feel like they could reuse the head from the LoP Skeletor for a retro style Movie Skeletor. Personally I am pretty stoked.

    Same here, it really differs from store to store.

    I want an actual vintage style axe. Exact detail. I may as well just try to find a vintage or commemorative one.

    I've seen vintage MotU weapons and other accessories on Ebay, though they are usually prohibitively expensive for what they are.
