Ever since the 1987 movie Evil-Lyn figure came out in 2023, I have had my fingers crossed for the William Stout cinematic concept art for She-Ra (who was unfortunately cut out of the script). I knew this was a pipe dream, but I would still be vocal about it everytime there was speculation about SDCC or NYTF reveals. However, that itch was kindof scratched when this New Etheria She-Ra was revealed a few months ago. The New Eternia (and now New Etheria) sub-line of MasterVerse featured more realistic fantasy-inspired designs. There is really no connection to the William Stout concepts and this figure, but this stylized cinematic-looking She-Ra is a great consolation. My only fear is that this and Hordak will be the only New Etherian characters. Teela in the New Eternia line is due this Summer (along with Kobra Khan), but there isn't much known beyond that. This She-Ra figure is really great in person and really shows off the potential of this line. Let's check her out below!
I can see some room for improvement with this figure's head. Firstly, her upper lip could be overdrawn a but (to make it look like she has an upper lip at all). Her irises could be a bolder color instead of the super light gray they appear to be (making her eyes look beady). And her eyeliner could be more defined. Additionally, her tiara could be dremeled back a bit around the temples to open up her face and make her look more like the packaging art. I will be attempting all these fixes on her eventually.
Time for some Group and Comparison Pics!
Here is She-Ra with the New Eternia Evil-Lyn.
Cheers!
