Pixel Dan I had the same issue with the boot thinking it was warped, but I realized the boot it just backwards. Twist the boot 180 and rotate the foot around.
I've had enough QC issues with S7 that I've pretty much stopped buying their stuff, but I'm pretty happy with my Sorceress when it comes down to it. Her joints, especially in the arms, are very loose, but I still like it better than the big drums that the Classics figure had.
Overall I like this figure, only issue I have is she has very loose ankles, which make it hard to pose. Paint on mine is good, heads change easily for me. Overall I'm happy with her, just wish the ankles were tighter so she can stand properly.
Damn Dan! You would think Super 7 would make sure to give you figures that aren't defective. Warped ankle, wonky eye?? Don't they know you promote the hell out of their stuff?!
Holy crap why is everyone hating on super7? I got the figure and i think it's pretty good. The alternative is not having any option to get anything because Mattel was done whether you like it or not.
They should've gone w/two versions: plastic, spread out pose of the wings & a second cloth version. That way you can do multiple different, multiple type of poses w/the second set, while using the plastic version for the iconic wings spread open for the shelf. The folded plastic wings almost feel pointless.
About the warped leg, a good trick I learned from customizers when I started doing customs is to put the leg in very hot water, making it softer. Then position the leg how you want it, then dunk it in ice water to set it there. Works pretty well in my experience. :)
I mean, this stuff does look like the cartoon, but in figure form they look like little kids toys. Yet, when it comes to making cartoon accurate Ninja Turtle figures, NECA kills it. I think if NECA had the line, they'd come out more like adult collectibles.
Sadly for this lack of interest (according to Mattel) He-Man is very much a niche line. It won’t get the sort of attention you’d get with a mainstream line, as this line doesn’t have that support. Kudos though for fans getting so many figures, for supporting this line(s) for 10 years. I do love this wave. Mer-Man is my favourite so far.
The line might start to get more mainstream attention IF the new Masters of the Universe film (set to release December 2019) does well... IF it does well because Sony is handling the film and it's releasing the same month as Star Wars episode 9 (very close to that film's release date). I guess it depends on which film has the best quality. But if the new MOTU film does well enough to gain a profit, we might get more of the classics stuff available.
Some of these figures sell for a really high price so I think that they can get the support they need if it’s marketed right. I found this line late (2013) and I only picked up he man and Castle Grayskull and those prices went sky high.
You would think Super7 would have fixed all these issues with the plastic they use by now....what the hell man! I wish Mattel would go back and make these again! Master's of the Universe is their baby anyway. Just saying.
In Europe we pay 70 eur. (80$!!!)four one figure in pre order and you open it and what you see very bad paint job: eys,lips alsow Tela figure is a joke.This is not collector figure.super7 do you have quality kontrol in production ?Greting from germany.
What's worse is how you can tell the prototype is really good, but the final product? Yikes! Compare the Teela from the prototype photo & the final figure...Man!
Best to just spin the foot on the peg all the way around on the pivot peg, then adjust the foot forward a bit, and finally just spin the boot around at the calf . . and it's fine.
The only issue I had with my figure was loose joints in the hips, ankles, and torso. Fortunately a Joint Fix bottle took care of those, and with no other QC issues, I have a fine Sorceress. Sorceress was always MY favorite He-Man and the MOTU character. Her design just always struck me as perfect, from a fantasy fan and a male perspective. As a kid, she was the one figure in the 80's that I could never find on the shelves. I always wanted one, and then when they released the Classics version, I smirked and took a pass. The figure for me always had to be a cartoon accurate Sorceress, and say what anyone does about Super 7, but they delivered me my cartoon accurate He-Man, Prince Adam, Skeletor and Teela. Now they've given me my Grail Figure, and she looks great. There's only one nitpick I have, and that's the skin tone. She should've had fairer skin color like Teela. But that face, that figure, and the costume colors and overall sculpt are perfect to me. No complaints here.
The other thing is she can sit in Greyskull throne a lot better. I got one from someone on He-Man.org but I really have to get another one of her but yeah a cloth cape would have been a better idea.
Hi Dan..I would try the boiling water method to straighten the warped calf, just dip the calf in freshly boiled water for 10-15 seconds, then lay the figure flat whilst holding the calf straight or, it may go into it's original shape..brilliant video by the way..
I just wish id get notified of these motu figures BEFORE they come out. Especially when it comes to the Sorceress, she's definitely my favorite of the universe as well as one of the rare figures to get your hands on....before the prices skyrocket.
honestly i have all the same issues as most with the figure but I used Mr Super Clear to mattefy the face and hands, and honestly I plan on posing her arms free of the cape regardless of the pegs. that is the point of the hanging cape...Luckily i didn't have the ankle issue but many people did based on reviews i saw...
The Filmation female designs were always short torso, long legs, so it works. My only gripe would be that the leg spacing makes the hips look too wide.
Hey dan. Ive never seen you do a cut during figure assembly for motuc's. Mustve taken a while to get the wings on. I tried assembling her wing/cape and her elbow pin popped out.
Hi. I want to start collecting MOTU figs but restrict myself to 15-20 core characters. Can someone explain to me what's the difference between the classics and club graskull lines of super 7? Also which one would u suggest for a new collector.
Brian Flynn never gave us an apologyze for the cheap and unaccuratee paintjob for Sorceress, Teela and She-Ra faces, when I saw Man At Arms final figure i was so surprised and happy for what SUPER7 was doing at the time, but i dunno why those females MOTU characters didnt recieved the Quality that they should have deserve, specially She-Ra articulation and face painting and TEELA hips and butt!!
I know this video is older...but funny thing: the problem with the foot is a Sorceress problem .... cause my knew temple of Darkness Sorceress from the origin line ... has the same problem, with the same foot! weird
been waiting for this for ages. ive got to wait until Christmas to get it. I hope theres know bad eyes on her. or leg issues nice figure. great review dan.
I’m still hot at Mattel for never sending me my original sorceress, despite signing up for the yearly subscription, claiming they had an error on their part causing it to be sold. 🤬
Pure garbage. Glad I have these characters made by Mattel. I mean, I'd like to buy a few of these Filmation figures..but not worth more than $15. When you have mass-market retail figures like Marvel Legends that blow these away in the QC department and cost $20..that's saying a lot.
What to say (where to start actually)... shitty quality, as always from Super7, and too short for f/cking no reason. One face on a prototype, another (of course uglier than the prototype) face on the actual figure. Typical Super 7 stuff....
You forgot to include how well she sits in Greyskull!! It's the one sticking point ANY of us have with any Sorceress!
Pixel Dan I had the same issue with the boot thinking it was warped, but I realized the boot it just backwards. Twist the boot 180 and rotate the foot around.
Not sure that would work but.
Finally, someone with brain power. I saw the same thing in video, and spun mine around, and it worked just fine.
I've had enough QC issues with S7 that I've pretty much stopped buying their stuff, but I'm pretty happy with my Sorceress when it comes down to it. Her joints, especially in the arms, are very loose, but I still like it better than the big drums that the Classics figure had.
I think the wings work better on this than the classics or vintage toys.
Overall I like this figure, only issue I have is she has very loose ankles, which make it hard to pose. Paint on mine is good, heads change easily for me. Overall I'm happy with her, just wish the ankles were tighter so she can stand properly.
Damn Dan! You would think Super 7 would make sure to give you figures that aren't defective. Warped ankle, wonky eye?? Don't they know you promote the hell out of their stuff?!
MATTEL must take back FILMATION and finished them doing a restock or reissue of the female figures (Evil Lynn, Teela, She-Ra, Sorceress)
Holy crap why is everyone hating on super7? I got the figure and i think it's pretty good. The alternative is not having any option to get anything because Mattel was done whether you like it or not.
This would've been way better with a cloth cape
Zen Brown, I don't understand why they never use cloth for capes anymore instead of plastic like they use to in the 1980s.
@@TaliaIGhul Because cloth would tear too easily, and it would be harder to add detail to such a flimsy accessory
@@listerine410 Funny thing is that the only way I'd tear my fabrics on my action figures is if used scissors. Really not that hard to take care of.
They should've gone w/two versions: plastic, spread out pose of the wings & a second cloth version. That way you can do multiple different, multiple type of poses w/the second set, while using the plastic version for the iconic wings spread open for the shelf. The folded plastic wings almost feel pointless.
@@Guernicaman That's actually a good idea. Kudos to you, man.

I mean, this stuff does look like the cartoon, but in figure form they look like little kids toys. Yet, when it comes to making cartoon accurate Ninja Turtle figures, NECA kills it. I think if NECA had the line, they'd come out more like adult collectibles.
Just one thing to say: COME BACK MATTEL!!! put some quality on this S7 disaster!!
I used to collect these figures from Mattel. I’d start up the Filmation figures, but not at $50 USD each, that’s insane.
Especially if the quality is this bad.
Sadly for this lack of interest (according to Mattel) He-Man is very much a niche line. It won’t get the sort of attention you’d get with a mainstream line, as this line doesn’t have that support. Kudos though for fans getting so many figures, for supporting this line(s) for 10 years.

Also in the episode Origin of The Sorceress we saw, She-Ra’s Sword of Protection and Horde Scouts.

Honestly super7.com is the worst source for Masters of the Universe Classics news because the website is a complete mess.
It really is, I tried navigating it today just to give up n go to bigbadtoystore instead
The prototype looked better...MUCH. The Ungul head doesn't look old enough. This just looks like a sadder version of Teela Na.
Do you like the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
In Europe we pay 70 eur. (80$!!!)four one

Filmation fan bat super7 have me disespoinded.Sory vor my englisch.
i got mine last week. i'm so excited to finally have a pretty sorceress! my 80s figure is so ugly lol. its been bothering me since i was a kid!!
You could fix the warped leg by using the hot water/ cold water trick.
Best to just spin the foot on the peg all the way around on the pivot peg, then adjust the foot forward a bit, and finally just spin the boot around at the calf . . and it's fine.
My second head is missing the yellow paint on the head piece. And the left knee is splitting up twords the hip. Very bad one I received.
I hope this video get updated with the issue on ankle/boot warped is clarified since it is just on the wrong orientation.

Got a lore question, is Kuduk Ungol the mother of Teela Na? The role of Sorceress seems to be a family line, like royalty.
Good god! Dan's Mattel Sorceress has derpy eyes!
that left boot with the warp looks like it was put onto the leg backwards
The other thing is she can sit in Greyskull throne a lot better. I got one from someone on He-Man.org but I really have to get another one of her but yeah a cloth cape would have been a better idea.

Does the Matty Sorceress’ head fit on the super7 body?
honestly i have all the same issues as most with the figure but I used Mr Super Clear to mattefy the face and hands, and honestly I plan on posing her arms free of the cape regardless of the pegs. that is the point of the hanging cape...Luckily i didn't have the ankle issue but many people did based on reviews i saw...
Thanks again for another great Dan. In comparison to the original MOTU Sorceress which do you feel is better in quality, this one or the original?
She’s nice enough looking. The torso is TOO short. That’s where we’re losing the height. We’ve got these regular length legs and then dwarf torso.
The Filmation female designs were always short torso, long legs, so it works. My only gripe would be that the leg spacing makes the hips look too wide.
The sorceress is shorter than her daughter Teela she should be right around the same height.
Super 7 is amazing . It looks exactly like the cartoon .
Love sorceress but they just cant get the wings issue right.i almost prefer the other way dont like the holes in her arms.
Mine had the odd foot issue too. I noticed when you turn her around on mine the pegs are different lengths in the knees!
Hey dan. Ive never seen you do a cut during figure assembly for motuc's. Mustve taken a while to get the wings on. I tried assembling her wing/cape and her elbow pin popped out.
So many memories, liking these figures hope you can get them in the uk 🇬🇧 soon

Where the heck do you buy action figure ?

I think I would dust off my sewing machine and make a cloth cape with individual feathers from the supplied plastic cape.
how does the Kotar head look on the Classics Sorceress body?
you know what where is the white lining in her suit
your left ankle actually looks like it's a right ankle put on backwards! looks like your copy had 2 right ankles unfortunately...
I know this video is older...but funny thing: the problem with the foot is a Sorceress problem .... cause my knew temple of Darkness Sorceress from the origin line ... has the same problem, with the same foot! weird
Where was this made?
awesome this figure.
Been waiting for this one. Looks good, though her torso looks a bit off so it looks like she barely has a rib cage.
Can you post a pic of the Kodak Ungol head on the Classics Sorceress buck?
Does the head fits well?
My God they made her this, ain't complaining
been waiting for this for ages. ive got to wait until Christmas to get it. I hope theres know bad eyes on her. or leg issues nice figure. great review dan.
Great job, Dan!
The pegs should be on the upper arms.
The eyes on mine are jacked too!
I’m still hot at Mattel for never sending me my original sorceress, despite signing up for the yearly subscription, claiming they had an error on their part causing it to be sold. 🤬
Pixel dan i feel bad for you. I say that because it seems more then often you keep getting figures that always have big defects in some sort.
Beautiful
Why don't they never get her eyes right.
Awesome Dam and great review. :)
Awsome Action Figure review
hi from canada ,number one comment ,love your videos review, have a nice day
Super 7 still with the QC issues.
..that original Sorceress is a sad panda😞
Helllloooo pretty birdy! *wolf whistle.*
Pure garbage. Glad I have these characters made by Mattel. I mean, I'd like to buy a few of these Filmation figures..but not worth more than $15. When you have mass-market retail figures like Marvel Legends that blow these away in the QC department and cost $20..that's saying a lot.
I wish the figure was as good as the reviewer. Cape is meh. The leg is warped. The faces look too glossy.
Worst possible action figure EVER!!! Uuuuuuuuugly!!!! Super7 destroyed a beautiful character, shame on them!!!!!
Great video
Horrible head soft plastic or bad skin paint ? what the heck is super 7 doing?
Super7 quality sucks. The way they handle those cool prototypes into making into action figures makes me puke.
I really dont like the capes
SÚPER 7 FAILLLL!!!
These damn dolls are so damn small to use as love dolls :/
This is a major disappointment
Ugly Figures for this price. Super 7 let Motu alone.I hope Funko get the MOTUC Licence one day !!!!
For the price they're asking, these figures sure as hell have a ton of QC issues.
Super 7 female figures feel so fragile and cheap. I don't like how they got rid of the thigh swivel.
Cape ruins the figure for me
First to like and comment great vid pixel dan keepmup the good work
Wave 2 worst figure QC
Horror figure chine
I’m second
This is the worse motu figure super7 has produced so far.
What to say (where to start actually)... shitty quality, as always from Super7, and too short for f/cking no reason. One face on a prototype, another (of course uglier than the prototype) face on the actual figure. Typical Super 7 stuff....
Who's looking forward to the new She-ra netflix series?
