Man I can empathase, the filmation He-man head is a very hard to capture likeness,
a few tweaks here and there and you've pritty much got it though...
how big is this going to be ?,
Could you use the sword, head for motuc customs?

Cheers Joe nice job

Agreed, we compared it to some models sheets I just received and it just needed a few tweaks.
Fans were right about the chin, actually it was the wrong shape.
I hope I can you show you pics soon!

It is NOT in scale with the figures at all. The statue is much bigger.

Cheers Joe ,

Yeah, the jawline is the main thing, and the spacing of the eyes. The hair is dead on, and I think this is the first time I've ever seen anyone get those eyebrows EXACTLY right (thickest at the crest and thinner at the ends).

As it is, I don't like it due to the face, but if it's tweaked a little, and the price is right, I would buy it, it's probably the closest thing I'll see to an official Filmation He-Man, with the Filmation Sword at that. I just hope someday Mattel does an official Filmation Power Sword in a weapons pack or with a figure....plenty of Filmation dudes coming to pack that bad boy in with.

New pics from the main page of the Org...
Looks much better, but still a bit off...
Will still get it and probably re-paint it...

**zodak74** · May 1, 2013, 05:12pm

Not to knock the work put into it, but it feels zero like Filmation He-Man and 100% like Hanna Barbara He-Man. It's a fun-looking piece though.

**He-bro** · May 1, 2013, 05:14pm

If the sword is removable, and fits in a classics figure's hand, I'm getting one.

**Firesoullove** · May 1, 2013, 06:25pm

The face is totally wrong, the forearms are to long and the muscles are not correct

Sorry to say that but this is the ugliest He-man statue I've ever seen...

**Mern-Ra** · May 1, 2013, 06:48pm

Much better--I assume the arm/wrist will be straight up, though, right?

**Ornclown** · May 1, 2013, 09:33pm

Hmmmm, I don't get all the hate, I think it's coming along nicely!

I'm excited for these!

**Greyskull** · May 2, 2013, 01:16am

Face looks good but the body seems disproportionate. Hope it's not the final design.

**Orko's Magic Hat** · May 2, 2013, 11:11am

Not bad, the body seems a bit out of proportion, but I do like the simplistic design and how it almost looks Hanna Barbera-ish.

**Man-E-Toys** · May 2, 2013, 01:49pm

The right arm seems way too big for the body and the face doesn't look right. Can no one sculpt an accurate looking filmation he-man???

**JVS3** · May 2, 2013, 01:53pm

Filmation is definitely a tough one to transform into 3D. I know I wouldn't want to try it... if I actually possessed the skills to sculpt, which I don't.

**MOTU_Maniac** · May 2, 2013, 02:10pm

I am actually pretty pleased and will be pre-ordering one

**markatisu** · May 2, 2013, 02:52pm

Its up on my store for presale (don't ask for the link since this is not the marketplace, it should be self explanatory but you can pm me if you need info) now for $3 cheaper than almost anyone else, glad to support AFX and Icon Heroes again!

I will be pre-ordering from you soon. I just need to get my ducks in a row.

**Vlcan** · May 2, 2013, 05:39pm

Filmation He-Man yes.....but I don't want a bust. Especially at $60.

So you're saying there's a difference?
