My favorite part about Masters of the Universe: Revelation was the character development. In the vintage show, most characters ended the series the exact same way they started. But Revelation took us on a journey - and not just and internal one. My two favorite characters in the series (Teela and Evil-Lyn) each had several significant design changes as the series progressed. And my absolute favorite was when Evil-Lyn temporarily became the Sorceress of Grayskull and (as opposed to Teela-Na being adorned in a wholesome falcon motif) she was suddenly wearing this diabolical bat outfit. It looks awesome. Of course, it also raises the question of whether or not she had a "Zoar" form. I don't remember a bat from the cartoon or comics, but I'm intrigued enough to investigate later tonight. When I watch the series on Netflix, this was instantly my most wanted design for the Masterverse line. I'm glad we got her so quickly and that she is so well executed. Let's check her out Sorceress Evil-Lyn below!
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is Sorceress Evil-Lyn with her Standard Version from Series One.
This is random, but I still had the Mirrorverse Maleficent figure sitting out and I thought they looked like diabolical sisters.
And here are all my Revelation ladies so far: Andra, Teela (v2), Sorceress Evil-Lyn, Mercenary Teela, Evil-Lyn, Teela (v2), and Andra (again).
Cheers!
I love Evil-Lyn. Her story was amazing and the entire time you really felt she too was a victim of skeletor. The bat sorceress costume was something I was really looking forward to (figure wise), but unlike you I was disappointed. The painting of the costume on the figure just looks odd to me, This is definitely an instance where they were better served going away from the main design and "not" painting lines that cross joints across the figure. If they just didn't paint those lines the figure would have looked much better in my opinion.
