Skeletor is awesome but i dont like the Dragons head. jave to wait for more Pictures but i just dont look like any vintage presentation and there were so much- Toy, Cardback, minicomic, Willism George Poster, front of the card.o
The head is ok, could have been better... but if this dragon doesn't have his hands holding onto Skeletor's shoulders, something that we can't really see with this picture because of the angle and the big pad lock in the way...Then I will not be happy.
I wonder if they went with the closed mouth look because some felt Leech looked silly with the open mouth?

WoW. This figure is pretty cool looking. I do not have a Skeletor from MOTUC yet, as I have been using my 2000 Skelly. It looks like there will be a new figure on the throne soon.I am excited to see what fun this new Skelly and his little friend will bring with them. Plus, the comic will be like icing.

Hi,
The figure looks great.
I have a the sub but I haven't received any of these previews (Mekaneck and DB Skeletor). Anybody in the same situation here? How do I get the e-mail?
Thans for the help.
Oh so awesome! A great idea to do this figure this year (I mean, how could you not?!?!?). I love the way the dragon looks, and the actual chain is going to make such a cool effect on the figure. About the only thing that could make this any better is if it actually had some kind of water-spitting action, or if the dragon's jaws actually moved. But that is so minor, and this figure is such a fantastic reveal!

Cool Skeletor variant!
Never had a DB Skelly before but looking at the vintage one, the dragon looks more menacing than the MOTUC one...must be the 80s dragon mohawkI anticipate this variant in my collection, still looks great!

I never understood why Skeletor had his hand chained up? Seems impractical.
I wonder if the 4H sculpted the mouth closed so the sharpness of the teeth would not be compromised. An open mouth might have resulted in the chiclet-teeth that King Hiss had.

YEAH! WOOOO! So awesome! This was my Skeletor back in the day (the only one I had after I bit the head off the original), so this is very very cool! I'm so glad they changed up the boots and the arms too; what a great way to refresh him a little! The dragon coming off his back is just icing on the cake. Friggin' love the dragon too; all those teeth! Fantastic! Just looks awesome. I cannot WAIT for this one! Knocked 'em out of the park!!

Heretical Vintage Purist and Non-Fan Extraordinaire!
Evil Lyn couldn't find the keys after their little kinky evening for Valentine's day... As for how the dragon got involved in all this, you don't even wanna know...
So here's my two cents on this new reveal: Skeletor's new arms and boots look awesome. The dragon, not so much. For once, the vintage actually looked far more ferocious. And it beats me as to why they would not be more faithful to that design since the open mouth design was used on Kobra Khan and Leech. Love it or hate it, an open mouth would have at least make this figure fit more harmoniously with those other two figures.
It's not terrible, but feels slightly out of place, as if Skeletor was packed in with a cutesy little dragon from Little Pet Shop toys.
Odd choice to say the least!
