Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that! I'm all about pale ladies.

All the PoP ladies were pale in ALL forms of media and toys. Well...except Netossa.

This chart has to be viewed with your monitor at 100% brightness.

A few of the colours on Toy Frosta are hard to quantify (see through cape, hair, metallic sticker), but I did my best. They are all definitely different blues. The colour sample I took from Toy Frosta's hair isn't quite right. Her hair is a bluish green. Closest sample I could get.

Well, let's see. I just quickly bunged your colours onto the Filmation model sheet (the skintone's grabbed from the toy picture you included, since you said it was accurate):

...uh...yeah.

[PS: The styleguide image isn't ACTUALLY the same as the Filmation design - besides all the blues being slightly less green/more violet, the styleguide image has a collar.]

Style guide only!!

**Haephestus** · September 1, 2011, 11:57pm

I know they're "off-model", but I really wouldn't mind seeing Jewelstar's boots, lower arm gauntlets and cape used for Frosta as long as the "crystals" were designed to look like "ice".

Of course, I highly doubt that will happen, but the crystal collar on Jewelstar might be a good compromise between the mega-collar of the Frosta toy-design and the choker of the Frosta Filmation-design.

I would like to see Frosta with the detailed bracelets, boots and skirt...with either the toy or Licencing Kit cape, but I think those colours look awesome like that. She looks a lot more like ice.

[PS: The styleguide image isn't ACTUALLY the same as the Filmation design

That's why the column with the PMS colours is from the Licencing Kit and the other is from the Filmation cel, as noted in my chart.

**Slave2Evil_Lyn** · September 2, 2011, 02:24am

When it comes to Frosta the toy and cartoon are very similar so I'd be happy either was. I will I'm not crazy about the toy's belt with the star but I could live with it.

As for the color I totally see where Darkspecter is coming form, the lighter hues do look more ice like. But having been to both Alaska and Antarctica it's amazing just how may shades of blue there can be in the ice.

I really really hope the 4H make a new HIGH HEELED foot for Frosta she of all the POP girls looks best with heels. It always drove me crazy as a kid that female figures like POP, Super Friends Wonder Woman, Teela, etc had those dumb wedges because they could or wouldn't do heels.

Not a great photo but I love how Hasbro has been giving The Baroness the heels of a real Femme Fatale that she deserves. I think Frosta deserves a pair too.

**PrinceAdam101** · September 2, 2011, 07:52am

I will be floored if Frosta doesn't arrive in 2012.

Double Agreed!

Frosta and Castaspella are my most wanted POP figures right now. Hopefully we get at least one of them in 2012! .

NO. Heels make your figure look good, but they ALSO make it IMPOSSIBLE for it to stand on its own. NO HIGH HEELS in MOTUC, please !

**General Hawk 7** · September 2, 2011, 10:17am

#1 FROSTA FROSTA FROSTA!!!!

Then after her...for my money...

2) Angella 3) Mermista (those two tie for me)
4) Netosa

After them, I don't really care.

Angella would be probably easier since we have the wings coming out with the Sorceress already.

Yeah, I hafta agree, Id rather the 'Wedge' heels that the vintage boots had, but its all Moot anyhow, cos even with a small heel the Females are Taller than the males, Mattel aint gonna make em Taller!

**Shadowcat** · September 2, 2011, 11:46am

I'm all for Frosta and she's the girl I'm rooting for...right after Glimmer, lol. I gotta have my Glimmer! Frosta is just a VERY VERY close second right behind Glimmer for me.

Do you want Glimmer?

I've been thinking... with all the POP ladies, TG will have a tough work to create them her real names. For ie. Glimmer is not her real name.... Frosta the same... and so on.

**Judeh Simon** · September 2, 2011, 11:57am

Cool picture of iceman! I hope Frosta gets an ice stand or sliding board of ice as her second accessory.

Hmm...I wonder if it's feizable to have everyone packed in with personalized stands! (maybe I'll ask that for in the next QAs)

Not necessarily true, I have several female figures with heels that stand just fine. Normally on female what causes them not to stand is the top heaviness of the long hair.

They said that She-ra 2.0 was shorter then the other females maybe it's to accommodate high heels. I really think some of the POP girls would look so much better if they had heels like in the cartoon. The figures look like they have huge feet which most women don't have.

I know someone will say "how can you fight in heels" but Frosta is not a physical fighter same with Castaspella. And to use the #1 female super hero as a example, Wonder Woman is not going to back a ankle if she's in heels, she's Wonder Woman.

I hadn't even thought about the POP girls having other "real names". Can't wait to see what Mattel comes up with. A few of them like Angella might be the same, but who knows about the rest. Needless to say there might be a lot of people who don't like them.

100% agreed. I love those heels. I think with the scale the women are at now, they would need to do a third shorter female buck to incorporate those heels. I am pretty sure the Horsemen were dead set on not sculpting hooker heels, however. That was EXACTLY what I wanted, too.

**Artistix** · September 3, 2011, 12:54am

I'd be fine with some higher heels in the line, but I really don't think the Horsemen like sculpting them.

They caved & made some for Zatanna, but I'd say the feet used by She-Ra & many of the MOTUC women is meant to represent the hi-heels used in other media. I can't see them getting any higher.

Higher shoes shouldn't affect a figures stability if they are sculpted properly. Hasbro's movie Baroness is the best example of good sculpting in that area.
