Write a Review link for that item. He-Man - Masters of the Universe (Mattel)Y'know what kids loved in the 80s? Animal sidekicks. Every team had one, a lot of toys came with them, many were big enough to be toys on their own. Usually sporting impractical arms and armor that never appeared in media. Here's one now. Screech was Zoar's opposite number, the evil pet of Skeletor (or Evil-Lyn, depending on continuity). To that end, they pulled a Panthor and duped the hero's stuff in evil luchador colors. Either way, it's an eagle. Reused from Big Jim, if I'm not mistaken. It's a good sculpt for the era, apart from the oddly large feet. The wings and back are rubber, and even today, can freely be flexed to flap the wings with a press on the back. Sadly, the talons are open slightly too far to fit a figure's wrist, so she (?) gets the same slightly art-deco perch as Zoar. Same armor, too- a sharp-finned mask and jetpack, armed with two rockets and a pair of lasers. Both accessories are cast in a nice sharp red. This is a redeco of a reuse. But it was pretty nice in the first place, and the extras are good. If you just want a big evil bird, you could do a lot worse.    by Karl T. Face |
