    Once again Amazon proves to me how incredibly stupid some of their packers are. I decided to buy another Stridor in hopes i'll one day get off my lazy ass and repaint it into a Nighstalker or at least just to have an extra. Well, the idiot who packed it had a box big enough to fit the entire package in there with no way they could damage it because of lack of space. Wrong! So what did they do? They folded the flap over for literally zero reason which creased Stridor's box and put the bubbles under the bottom of Stridor's box jamming the entire thing to one side. At least it was on sale...

    Bad Amazon! :stick:

    How is the fit of the Greyskull sword in Teela's hand? Was thinking of buying a sword from the old Greyskull Weapon Pack to give her a grey sword.

    I also spotted the Ground (Road) Ripper yesterday at Target (West Los Angeles on Obama blvd), but it wasn't in the app so they had nothing to price match it down from the $40 they wanted, I balked at that.

    Ohh interesting. I thought the hair colors were different based on which card they were on.

    Now I want a variant based on this deco, complete with the cross on the harness.

    The loincloth is fairly easy to attach if you don't mind snapping a 200x He-Man in half. I used the one from the Neal Adams comic book 2 pack with Skeletor because it was cheaper when I bought it. The loincloth and sword both work. So does the chest harness if you prefer it. I had someone hollow out the bracers years ago for a Classics custom and they work well on the Ultimate Warrior arms, which is a close skin tone match.

    I have multiple parted out He-Mans from 200X in my parts box. I intended to finish up a Classics 200X He-Man but never got around to it.
