It's what collectors do. That's why there are forums to share our opinions, and frustrations.
Everyone will probably say it is the coolest thing since sliced bread when they see the whole thing. Give it time.

Wonder how they will switch the faces, with a switch or something? Maybe a knob?
Now then, where's the rest of the figure!
More like Man E Faces of Masters of the Universe. Love the Blitzwing toy so far. I would definitely get this toy when it comes out. Good job!

His tank face could be better, and I would like a crazier-looking Kremzeek face, but it's nice!

Es ist Schoene!
He's got some pretty far-out powers to go along with them, too, including teleportation, the projection of trippy telepathic visions and illusions, and the ability to groove on the language of 98% of all known species. To uses his powers to the fullest, though, he's gotta be feelin' good vibrations; bad karma can seriously harsh his mellow, y'know?

Millions? I know making new molds costs a good sum, but I didn’t think millions.

I want it to be good, and I will buy it - but I'm just afraid that they've compromised the design to make it sort of fit in with both animated and classics, while it would have been better staying faithful to one style or another. Waiting for final figure, whole body pics...

Exactly what I was thinking...only minus the excitement. Maybe his chest will have that awesome He-Man/Skeletor battle armor gimmick where the chest has a spinning deal to make slash marks, too.

Can we see the rest now?

The first needs a slightly different, maybe more purple-ish color.
And yeah, a more aggressive expression would be nice.
Even if this isn't totally show accurate, imo it'll still look better.
The second (crazy) face needs an even more dynamic shape for the mouth, almost to the point of being out of proportion, just to capture the craziness of that persona.
I'm actually okay with the 3rd one for the most part... Maybe a less "surprised" expression would be better.
I definitely agree that there's too much space around the faces under the "helmet".
You don't want it to be rubbing around, but that's a pretty big gap...
It'll be nice if that gets fixed as well.
This figure has a ton of potential.
Hopefully it delivers.

From the pictures - does anyone want to take a guess if this is a Deluxe or Voyager class? I'm guessing a deluxe.

Now all we need to know is how the faces are changed... do you turn the faces individually, or does it switch when you push the head down or something?
