Oh Evelyn Morgan Powers, I was always rooting for you to wrest power from Skeletor and lead the Evil Warriors of Eternia. But alas, those annoyingly perky heroes would always win. When this Vintage-Style Evil-Lyn figure from Super7 was announced, I was a little bummed that they weren't using this platform as a pathway to get us characters that never before had MOTU-style vintage figures (like She-Ra and Shadow Weaver). I would have loved to see Scorpia, Queen Marlena, or Delora before re-hashes of Teela and Evil Lyn, but once I had them in hand, I realized how vastly different the Filmation designs were from the vintage toys. So it's nice to have a proper update, especially since He-Man and all the boys were getting them. Of course, now I will lament that we will never see a Sorceress in this line since she is that only remaining MOTU female without a refreshed action figure. (I only hope Mattel's Origins line does the brand justice and give us lots of characters). Let's check out Evil Lyn below!
Evil Lyn comes a removable cloth cape, two versions of her signature crystal ball scepter and the Cordite Crystal.
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is Evil-Lyn with her true vintage counterpart from 1983.
And with the other MOTU lady from the Super7 Vintage series, Teela.
(Not shown is the Frozen Teela variant).
Cheers!
Good looking figure and a good update from the other figure. Good post.
