We got a First Look at Fwoosh’s King Randor yesterday, and we get the Goddess today. Randor is the Club Eternia figure – if you’ve got the subscription, he’s the last figure for this year. The Goddess is one of two bonus figures this month, the second being a reissue of Skeletor with “The Original” sticker added to the packaging.
Will I beat myself up if I skip her? It’s a big month for me on MattyCollector, with a 6-inch Winston from Ghostbusters and the Animal Instincts DC Universe Classics 2-pack, so I’ll have to think about it. I do like the look of the translucent plastic. Decisions, decisions!
I am going to let the pictures do a lot of the talking for this one, but, even though the Goddess is mostly the Teela figure, she is not really just a simple repaint. The reuse is spot on as it matches the source material perfectly. I also really like the color deco on her too, her body suit and armor really fit the overall theme of her character and it nicely done. Her eyes are very striking as well, though, I am sure some will notice that she does have pupils, something that the discerning fan is aware the original source material is lacking.
Another cool thing is that she comes with the same requisite Snake Armor that was included with Teela. The cool part of this for me (aside from being, you know, how the character was portrayed) is that I can now display that cool head dress. See, I like my Teela without the head dress better, but it is essential for the Goddess (in fact she does not include the alternate Teela head) so I now have a great way to have the Snake Armor on the shelf.
