From Super7:
"Super7 is happy to present the Masters of the Universe Vintage 5.5-inch Figures Collection. The original MOTU action figures re-imagined to match the character designs from the animated cartoon!
These new carded Vintage Figures come with their own accessories:
• He-Man with Power Sword, Half-Sword, and Shield
• Skeletor with Havoc Staff, Power Sword, and Half-Sword
• She-Ra with Sword of Protection, Shield and Sword
• Hordak with Arm Cannon and Crossbow
The figures all feature a spring loaded mechanism: Turn the waist and they swing back with a punch! The packaging includes a custom character history card with the figure and has new and original art on the back of each card by classic MOTU artist Errol McCarthy.
The pre-order for the Masters of the Universe 5.5" Vintage Figures is open now.
This is not a limited edition release but pre-orders will receive the figures immediately upon arrival from the factory. Figures will be available individually for $20 each or as a set for $80. We expect to ship the 5.5" Vintage Figures in September 2018."

UPDATED March 9th:
Here are the results to your most-wanted 5" retro-styled MOTU figures from Super7. These results will be reviewed and considered by Super7 and the Four Horsemen.
This poll focused on 5" candidates that were characters released so far in the Masters of the Universe Classics line. There are always other candidates, and Super7 may have some of their own surprises for the 5" line. But most of the obvious candidates for the 5" line will be characters already released in Classics.
Please note, as indicated in the voting, any character that previously appeared in the 80s as a MOTU toy would be re-released in a Filmation'retro style similar to the 5" figures Super7 has shown already for characters like He-Man and Skeletor.
Here are the Top 15 most wanted:
1. Shadow Weaver (first 5" MOTU appearance)
2. Adora (first 5" MOTU appearance)
3. Sorceress (Filmation'styled)
4. Mer-Man (Filmation'styled)
5. Queen Marlena (first 5" MOTU appearance)
6. Trap Jaw (Filmation'styled)
7. Cringer (first 5" MOTU appearance)
8. Evil-Lyn (Filmation'styled)
9. Orko (Filmation'styled)
10. Prince Adam (Filmation'styled)
11. Ram Man (Filmation'styled)
12. Fisto (Filmation'styled)
13. Keldor (first 5" MOTU appearance)
14. Tri-Klops (Filmation'styled)
15. Man-E-Faces (Filmation'styled)
Also for fun, we included the existing MOTUC vehicles, beasts and playsets in the poll. The following two items would have placed in the Top 15, even though there has been no announcement of anything other than 5" figures coming from Super7:
1. Battle Cat (Filmation'styled)
2. Castle Grayskull (Filmation'styled)

It looks like we are finally getting vintage style He-Ro and Eldor. They look like they will be coming on the standard card (no Powers of Grayskull).
The Four Horsemen have also sculpted Filmation-style figures for He-Man, Skeletor, She-Ra and Hordak. Thanks to AlternativeMindz for the photos!
