Jewelstar had no shin cut, but she did have the ankle rocker feet, and it really makes a bib difference with posing.

That's something I don't understand... She's really not an expensive figure for them to make. The females are always cheaper. Wish she had the ankle rocker feet.

Another figure screwed apparently, like how they used the longer pelvis and non articulated thighs for Sorceress....the prototype looked better in that aspect.

Netossa is still really nice, it just would have been nice to have those feet.

As for that pelvis, something definitely went wrong in the production of it... why it ended up longer I'll never know.

Didn't they do the same thing to Tallstar?

Thanks for sharing the pictures of Netossa and Jitsu.
Haven't found the Netossa on ebay, is she already sold?

Both look cool as testshots, but I prefer testshots with more colors.

Jewelstar has the rocker ankles but she also has flats on. Netossa has heels, as she should, I would not want her to have flats. In fact I wish that the females had higher heels like in Filmation.

That's reilly odd.
King Grayskull was the first figure to be released.
Maybe when his regular version with the orb came to the release, the casting mold for his cape wasn't available any more. So they took a Scareglow-cape to show the testshot.
And later they made a new casting mold for the King's cape?

LOL @ Ice frosted Grayskull !

Here are two pictures that haven't been shown in this thread yet, I think.

A lot of testshots were to be seen at the german Grayskull Con in late august 2012 in their exposition:

If it makes ya feel better I think she does have ankle rocker feet. They look angled at the ankle in the proto pic plus Jewelstar has one style of ankle but Marlena, Sorceress, & Catra have a different style that has sideways movement without the blatant joint.

That's my take on it, but I could be wrong.

You're right. It looks like she has the same type of ankle rocker that the Sorceress has. It seems Frosta has it too but there wasn't enough space left between the foot and the ankle, so Frosta doesn't have much ankle-rocker action

Hopefully Netossa will.

Did you see those two guys?
Both ended in ebay about an hour ago, when I was still lying in bed...
Not the best testshots I've ever seen, but some of the really first MotUC-figures.
And rather cheap I would say...

That Zodac, that's not a test, or a prototype, he's the new "TOD Zodac"....can't you tell, he's using Mattel's new white paint!

Also that's the new "Albino Thigh Mer-Man" as well....

They switched the arms on this one...

AWESOME!!!!! I cannot wait to get Strobo.

**Teacher of Madness** · January 2, 2013, 07:00am

There's a lot of great figures coming in 2013 so far, but for whatever reason I get really excited about getting a Strobo every time I see him, probably moreso than almost anyone but Ram Man. Not sure why that is since It's a goofy mishmash of parts to make a character i have zero history with.

**Scorpia** · January 2, 2013, 07:53am

Is there anything new about Strobo? Cape?

Cape, is obvious, his accessories. (Pedestal, Metor thing, Kar-Tor head) There is a slight possibility that his torso is "new" (assuming the Sy-Klone backpack is not a separate piece that plugs in the back hole that originated with KG)

Crap! Looks like Snakeface's Snakes are sculpted with the arm and are not a separate piece...
