This video is a review of the Masters of the Universe Masterverse LEECH box figure that is part of the Wave 13 Princess of Power Sub line Masterverse series and Made by Mattel Toys for 2024.
This guy looks great. I love the headsculpt. I agree that he should have been a little bigger and bulkier. He should have been a darker shade of green as well, but overall, its a badass figure.
Thanks for checking out the review! I really like the design and overall details of this Masterverse Leech figure. His size is more in line with the She-Ra animation Leech. Yeah It would have been cool if he had been a little bigger, like the Classics Leech. But he is still a cool figure to pick up 👍
@DAREDEVILBKLYN Yeah, the colors and sculpt definitely came out great for this figure! I also discovered he has drop joints in the hips that make him taller. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👍
Yeah, I also always liked Leech the best with the Horde faction! I think this Masterverse Version looks really good! He's a little on the smaller side going back to the She-Ra animation design. But his details are really well done! Thanks for watching, and I'm glad to hear you also like this new Masterverse Leech figure 👍
That's awesome to hear! I think the overall design came out great for this Masterverse Leech figure. I wish they made him a bit larger. But he's still really cool! Thanks for watching ✌️
Leech was a figure I didn't like. When I was a child I never really appreciated the Horde characters. I changed my mind when Hordak and Grizzlor came out in the Masterverse line, bought them both! After seeing your review I have to admit that I'm impressed by the new version of Leech. I'll definitely buy it when available, maybe it won't become one of my top five Masters but it will look good together on the shelf with its evil friends
Thanks for watching and sharing your childhood memories with MOTU. I have to admit! I remember seeing the Horde figures come around for the first time as a kid, and I was hooked! I always liked that faction of characters. The Classics really took them up to the next level, which I will always put first. However, I also like the new Masterverse filmation inspired designs for these Horde figures. I think this Leech came out really cool! I wish he was a little larger, like the Classics figure. But he is still a great pick-up for the collection. It's awesome that this review helped you decide to pick this figure up down the road to add to your collection!
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts and comments on this figure! Yeah, the overall looks and design with this Masterverse Leech, including his hands and feet, are definitely creepy and unique👌
i was expecting more from a master verse leech, i guess i wait till they release a new eternia leech. No suction mechanism, & no Suction head? Weird choice of lime colors, especially in the limbs, which is a bummer it doesn't match the origins and Mattel better release a Weapons Pak with new accessories like suction arms & head for leach if they don't plan to release a New Eternia version leech.
Thanks for checking out the review! I would also like to see more of a New Eternia style leech that looks similar to the Classics and much larger. They seem to be sticking to the POP animation style with lighter colors. I honestly didn't expect any sticking or the sucktion action features with a Masterverse Leech because none of the Masters figures really has had any action features for the most part. Hopefully, we will see some New Eternia Horde coming 👍
Got my Leech, and when in a slightly "lurched" position, he was the height of one of the bigger Origins figures, and not any masterverse figure. This really should have been a bigger deluxe figure like Whiplash.
Thanks for stopping in to check out the review and sharing your toy Hauls. Yeah wish he was bigger like the Classics or 200x leech designs. But if you go back to the POP animation, Leech is a smaller character in that show very close to this figures size in scale next to the other Masterverse figures. Also I discovered that this Leech dose have the pull out drop joints in the hips. So pull the legs down and it makes him taller! Mine was stuck and I figured it out right after I posted this review. So it dose help him become a little bigger. Maybe the Masterverse will put out some New Eternia Horde with a whiplash size leech 👍
LOL. Yeah, the Netflix She-Ra took a whole other turn from the original animation. I watched the season, and I wasn't interested after that! I think the art on these Masterverse boxes is going back to the original animation and Classics concepts! Thanks for stopping in to check out the review!
I was going to skip Leech and Animated Hordak out of this wave but this video convinced me to preorder Leech. I'm all out of room on my bad guys shelf but I gotta fit him in somehow. As to his size, I'd rather get an awesome standard release than a mediocre "deluxe" figure, which hikes the price up even more. This Leech is a great looking figure.
Thanks for watching, and I'm glad to hear my review helped you decide to preorder this Leech figure! Space or funds are always a challenge for so many of us with toy collecting. I don't mind the filmation size either! I'm really happy with his overall design and accessories👍
Awesome job, always killing it.. even throwing in Reference to maybe the inspiration for those sucker Hands. 👍🏻 Figure looks great! Looking forward to him.
Thanks, man! I appreciate you stopping in to see the reviews and sharing your thoughts on the figures! I love the new design and colors for this Masterverse Leech figure. They did make him a little on the smaller size going back to the filmation Leech. But it's cool. It makes him more parasitic and quicker, I guess👍
@@Themanchlid oh definitely, that’s why I love New Eternia.. it’s something so different and I don’t want the same ole same ole.. it’s not always a home run, but for the most part, New Eternia is amazing.
Mine say they won’t be here until June or July 😢 you get stuff fast my friend. Thank you for another great review. I’m excited to get Leech. He was always one of my favorites as a child.❤❤❤ Leech and Mantenna. I hope the bring Mantenna soon
Thanks for always taking the time to check out the reviews on this channel! Yeah, that's the correct release date for these figures for certain retailers. I get my figures on eBay a lot of times from various sellers who get some shipped earlier and, of course, sell them for more money. I go out of my way to pick these up to review early if I can. I'm glad you like the new Leech design for Masterverse. I'm sure Mantenna will be coming too👍
Thanks for checking out the review and sharing your positive thoughts! I agree! I like seeing different styles or variants of core figures like this POP leech! The sculpts and design for this figure look awesome!
Great-looking figure! I’ll also admit, he should probably be bigger. But besides that, yeah, looks awesome! That whip is really cool and a great addition! I really like the way the “suction” hands look on this Leech figure. Showing the comparisons to Origins Leech, I never really noticed before that the arms do indeed look a bit small in relation to the rest of his body. I still don’t have Origins Leech, I should probably get on that fairly soon before they sell out again on BBTS. ~Damon
Hey Damon, Thanks for stopping in to check out the review! Yeah, I really like the design of this Masterverse Leech as part of the POP Sub line. He is a little on the smaller side compared to the Classics or vintage inspired concepts. I found out later that the legs have dropped joint articulation, and it does make him a little taller. I show that update iny Masterverse Sy-klone review. The whip is a really cool looking accessory for this figure. I hope to see a New Eternia Version of Leech for Masterverse down the road! Yeah, I would definitely see if BBTS has that Origins Leech. I think it's a must-have for the Origins 👍
Yeah, they made him more parasitic, and on the smaller side, like the animation, which seems to be the direction the Masterverse Horde figures are going at this point. Maybe Mattel will get into New Eternia Horde later. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👍
Thanks for stopping in as always! I think the design and details of this Leech figure are incredible! He is on the smaller size going back to the POP cartoon. But still really cool👍
This figure is so filmation inspired like their current Hordak I can’t help but wonder if they make a vintage style in the future. I don’t try to bring up classics too much but that version was really on the money to me. I think the colors and the head are very well done. I’ll be keeping some of these Masterverse horde together in their own shelf area.
Thanks for watching. Yeah, it seems like all the Masterverse Horde figures at this point are designed or inspired by the Princess of Power animation and concepts. That's what see! However, most of us grew up with the Vintage He-man line and figures, which are still cool looking designs and transferred over the Classics designs 25 years later. The classics figures will always be awesome for that reason. I guess Masterverse wanted to do something different with the Horde for now. Maybe they will get into New Eternia Horde figures down the road, and we would probably see a larger and Classics inspired Leech design!
Thanks for checking the review out! Yeah, the overall design is really cool. But this new POP leech has a very small Filmation inspired design. I would also like to see a New Eternia leech with larger portions like the 200x design.
Thanks for watching! Yeah, I thought a Masterverse Leech figure finally coming to the line would be New Eternia first. But I guess they want to stick more to the animation or POP concerts with the Horde and Princess of Power figures at this time. Maybe Mattel will get into some New Eternia Horde figures at some point 👌
@AlsoSprachDerHase Yeah, I'm glad the Horde trooper was designed for New Eternia as well! I can see some other New Eternia Horde figures coming in the future 👍
Yeah, I heard other people in the comments mentioned the same thing about Hopefully seeing some New Eternia Horde figures at some point. I would also be interested in those! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👍
New Eternia is the best of the lines so far. I wasn't into Masterverse until the New Eternia Line I have most of them and they are my favorite. The new eternia snout spout is bad ass!
Glad you started reviews on your new batch of figures, I really like this, But my only semi complaint is that he's not a big as some other monster type figures, The Origins version was pretty bulky,, But it is what it is, I will still probably get the pre-order sometime soon, There's some other figures I want before getting this, on the positive side, I like that they are not all the exact same size, I'm looking forward to your next few reviews too. You must have shelled out a lot to get all those on eBay.
Thanks for stopping in as always! Yeah, I'm trying to review these wave 13 figures as soon as I can. I like the overall design and colors with new Masterverse Leech. He is on the smaller side going back to the POP animation concepts. It definitely makes him a little unique compared to the other figures. I'm glad to hear you also like the overall look of this Leech aside from the smaller size. I paid a couple hundred dollars for all the figures on eBay to get early for reviews. My next review will be the Masterverse Sy-klone figure. I'm working on it now!👍
@@Themanchlid Well it's a month later and I just ordered MV Leech and Sy-Klone from BBTS yesterday, after seeing the reviews and thinking about them, Also they are not pre-orders anymore, they have them in stock which is always good, Cant wait for those to arrive. Also my Revelation Teela arrived, got her cheap from Amazon, I am definitely getting more MV than Origins figures.
@@MK7-MephistoKevin777 Nice buys on those figures! Yeah I know certain places have them in stock now. Sy-klone is definitely my favorite in that wave. The Newer Revalation Teela came out really good too! Thanks for sharing your Toy haul updates and checking out this review 👌
@@Themanchlid And now there are here, I just opened up my MV Leech and Sy-Klone, both are great and work well in my MV figure display, No regrets, no complaints, thanks for the reviews they did help me decide on ordering them (from BBTS)
@@Themanchlid always reminded me that blood sucking fish his mini comic apearence still think is mutch stronger than grizzlors base form the mutated was grizzlor was strong like him in the end he hade that sasquatch kinda apearence in the books
@@nikoszparaszkevopulosz5522 This Version of Leech seems a little bit inspired from a combination of those mini Comics and the Princess of Power animation.
@@Themanchlid elgrego hade gift boxes that was a special holiday threepacs like skeletor in battle armor panthor and man-e-faces with many brown plastick weapons or he-man in battle armor battle cat and the water spiting kobra fig with the orange blaster and mace or godess evil-lyn 2 pack and coloring book
Great review as always. I wonder if they wanted him to be smaller to show him as more of a wormlike character. Not really a gigantic intimidating monster as was in the 200x series.
Thanks for checking out the reviews as always! That's a good point about making this Masterverse Leech smaller to make his design more wormlike and stealthy. He definitely fits in better with the classics figures because of his height. The 200x version was really big. I prefer Leech to be larger like that design. This Masterverse Leech looks more like the filmation characters' size but a little smaller.
Good review! The figure is decent enough but I think if he was the more turquoise colour like in the cartoon then he would have looked better. I may pick him up eventually 👍
Thanks for watching as always! Yeah, his colors and size are a little different from the animation. But I think it works well for the Masterverse POP line. I think he's worth the pick-ups 👍
There are some floating around on eBay already that get into the hands of certain sellers from the factory a little earlier for a higher cost. This is typical with MOTU figures. Thanks for watching 👍
I'm not sure when or where these would even ship outside the USA. Places like Smyths or the whole shebang overseas usually get these figures later down the road. Thanks for checking out the reviews and sharing your thoughts 👍
Great review! Thank you! Didn't want to pick-up Leech because of his off-color and because of how small he is, but if he can be made tall enough by extending his legs, i might actually get him. Would you be able to post a review of Leech in his fully extended position? i'm interested to see what he'd look like next to 40th Anniversary He-Man, the new Hordak, and Grizzlor
Thanks for checking out the review. Yeah he is on the smaller side compared to the Classics leech design. He does have the drop hip joints that pull out or push in. Mine were stuck. I figured it out a little later and showed that update in my Masterverse Sy-klone review. So it does allow him to be a little taller. He looks on smaller side compared next to all those figures.
@@Themanchlid Thanks for the quick reply! i'll check out your Sy-klone video and try to decide if Leech is tall enough with his legs extended for my liking .
@@Classic--oi7qi No problem! Yeah the Extended legs makes him as tall as most figures. It's just his overall body looks thin compared to the vintage inspired or Classics leech. To be fair! He was smaller in the She-Ra cartoon. So this leech figure is accurate to that show. I think his overall design and sculpt is great!
The Leech from the Classics line will always be awesome and still my favorite Vintage inspired design. I think it's cool to see a POP version of Leech in the Masterverse for now. Maybe New Eternia will make some Horde and a Classics inspired larger Leech! Thanks for watching ✌️
Thanks for stopping in to check out the review, rickytodd! I am glad you also like this new look for leech! I think it's a cool design for Leech in this POP Masterverse line
Wonder if they messed up during production? Great design, but really small. He-Man and She-Ra tower over him. Bummer, I'll stick to my classics version.
Thanks for watching! Yeah, he is a bit short for some reason. The Princess of Power Animation Leech was also on the smaller side to be fair. But he looks even shorter than that concept. The design and accessories are really cool on this figure aside from that! I will always prefer the Classics Leech design as well! But I still like something about this figure 👍
Yeah, most of the designs of this Leech figure are inspired by the filmation, but with some added details. The head and suction cups are really cool looking. Thanks for watching as always 👍
I have New Eternia Trap jaw and he is my favorite masterverse figure so far..Amazing articulations..Leech looks fantastic . He has good articulations ???Better from new Trap Jaw ???
Thanks for watching! I also have the New Eternia Trap-jaw and reviewed him a while back! His design and articulation are really cool! Who said this Leech figures articulation is better than Trap-jaw?
@voularagou5828 No problem! I appreciate all your support! I just discovered that Leech has drop-down joints in the legs. It makes him a bit taller. I show that info in my Masterverse Sy-klone review that uploading now!👍
Thanks for watching as always! I think his design came out really cool! But he is more on the smaller side going back to the POP animation. I also wish he was a little taller as well!
Good thing i never collect. This 7 inch line,.they should have made him much larger it looks like its odd for its scale., the staction is far better one only downside its a statue
Thanks for checking out the review and sharing your thoughts! I like the overall design of this Leech figure, but he is on the smaller side going back to the Princess of Power animation. Even then, he seems smaller. That 200x NECA Leech is the best size, and look for that figure! But no articulation definitely makes him awkward.
I also really like the design of this Leech without any action figure Gimmick. I also discovered he does have drop joint articulation, which was stuck in my figure. It makes him a little bit taller. Yeah, I am sure the Snakemen is on the list for Masterverse at some point! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👌
It's a very interesting design for a Masterverse Leech figure as part of the POP sub line, and he is on the smaller size similar to the filmation cartoon. Classics and 200x have more vintage or Origins Leech design, which is always my favorite! Thanks for watching ✌️
Man, he looks great but why is he so tiny??!! He's just a hair taller than the Origins figure and he is shorter than the female figures in tthe line... 😥
Thanks for stopping in already to check out the review! Yeah, I love the details and overall design of this Masterverse Leech figure. But he I do wish he was a little larger or at least taller like Grizzlor is. Maybe it's my figures legs. I have to mess around with him more to see if I can get more height.
@@Themanchlid it definitely isn't your figure, they just made him smaller. However, I just checked with my good friend Google and it seems Leech was indeed that small in the Filmation cartoon which is really surprising to me. 😃Ah well, I guess we'll have to wait for the Leech to be released in the New Eternia line to get the "properly" sized one. I am sure that's happening, we gotta have black/grey Hordak and his variations, and that new Horde Trooper is coming under the New Eternia flag, so we might get the Evil Horde in the NE sooner than later. 😃 I was expecting this to happen since we only got the blue Hordak in the PotP subline and because Grizzlor was very "filmation-y" looking, but when Mattel announced the Horde Trooper in the NE it pretty much confirmed this for me.
@hegga_nm Yes, Leech in the filmation cartoon was the same height as most of the regular characters. I showed a quick image of Leech next to Mantenna from the filmation cartoon during my review for reference to this figure. The NA Horde trooper looks really cool. I can't wait for the Mattel creations sale on that figure 👍
@@Themanchlid I am both excited and terrified of that Trooper sale, as unlike previous Masterverse releases on creations, this one is an army builder and nobody will be buying just one, so this could be the first Masterverse to go out of stock fast. As an international collector, I most likely won't be able to purchase it directly and buying sold out creations figures on ebay most likely means ~$100 a pop + international shipping. 🤬 I hope I am wrong. 😃 I was lucky with Snout Spout, and I got one on ebay for $10 over what would cost me to get it from creations while they were still able to ship to Bosnia, but I don't think this will be the case with Troopers. 😆
Yeah, I think the Masterverse series of the evil Horde are sticking to the Princess of Power inspired designs. Leech was smaller in that show to match this Figures size. Hopefully, we will see a New Eternia or Revolution Leech down the road with a larger size like the 200x Leech. Thanks for watching and sharing your comments 👍
He is definitely not as large as the vintage concept leech. He's more on the filmation side with height. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 👍
The design looks cool. But he is more on the smaller side. Maybe they will make a New Eternia version that looks more like the Classics design! Thanks for watching 👍
I think he looks very similar to the typical Masterverse figures as far as paint apps go. Of course, the different green tones make him unique. But you can always customize with additional paint as you mentioned to make him more realistic looking. Thanks for watching and sharing your comments 👌
