Bow, Kowl, Weapons Packs, and Wind Raider

Bow, Kowl, Weapons Packs, and Wind Raider

Masters of the Universe Classics - Mattel

I didn't have any She-Ra figures outside of the warrior herself and her nemesis, Hordak, but I thought she deserved her main squeeze (in his dreams) Bow...at least for the discounted price I paid for him!  

He may have the same physique as all the warriors of Eternia, but the well-groomed hair and Errol Flynn mustache make him look like a wimp.  He didn't come with a comb, but he did come with an alternate head sans mustache and...uh...some tiara thing.  Well, he still has his mighty bow and his ferocious...harp...oh boy.  

At least they gave me the option to opt-out of the heart icon for his chest piece.  

I mentioned the green slime He-man weaponry that I gave to Faker that came in the End of Wars Weapons Pack, but I saved the main draw of that set to pair with Bow:  Kowl!  Now Bow is really ready for battle with his mighty, rainbow-eared minion.  Sure he looks cute, but he is an owl, and could probably do some damage with that beak and talons.  His head and arms can rotate, but other than that he's just an accessory.  Probably one that should have come with Bow in the first place to help him sell, eh Mattel?  

There are a bunch of other weapons in that pack that go with figures I don't have (and didn't want), but the more the merrier.  I got more mileage out of the Great Unrest Weapons Pack, which features add-ons for Man-at-Arms, Teela, Evil-lyn, Horde Prime, and Skeletor.

2002 represent, ya'll!

A bigger score from the Big Bad Toy Store/Mattcollector Purge, was the essential He-man vehicle, the Wind Raider.  It's pretty darn big (it had to be for the larger Classics figures) and comes with an equally huge flight stand.  The flight stand adds multiple heights and tilts for display variety.

The ship also has a few special features.  The wings, rudder, and compass-thing can rotate, it has a firing anchor/grappling hook, and opening compartments on the thrusters.

She-ra gets a man, Bow gets a sidekick, Skeletor/Keldor gets some swords, and Man-at-Arms gets some new toys for the arsenal.  All-in-all, not a bad haul for this go-round!
