   The most recent collection of 8 1/2 inch figures from Mattel’s He-Man and the Masters of the Universe line impressed by the Netflix animated collection consists of Stratos (who I reviewed Wednesday) and Entice Jaw. Entice Jaw was already launched within the 5 1/2 inch collection final 12 months however not he is larger and badder than earlier than. This collection of figures undoubtedly appears geared in the direction of youthful children and I am guessing plenty of collectors are merely skipping them. That is in all probability a protected guess for many collectors because the designs are so much like the 5 1/2 inch line. Nonetheless, some followers dig this type of stuff, so let’s try Entice Jaw after the break…

Top: 8 1/2 inches

Articulation: Knee swivels, swivel/hinge hips, swivel waist, swivel/hinge shoulders, swivel/hinge elbows, swivel left wrist, swivel proper claw, and a balljointed head.

Equipment: None

Non-Scalper Value: $13 {dollars}

The Positives:

* Entice Jaw is without doubt one of the characters on this line that is straightforward to determine. Whereas he is extra stylized in a Dreamworks/ Pixar sort of manner, he nonetheless has the foremost Entice Jaw hallmarks (helmet, jaw, huge mechanical arm) and his colours are fairly recognizable. These are very stylized however there are some cool particulars just like the completely different scars on Entice Jaw’s torso and the painted snake brand on his belt.

* The headsculpt is absolutely good right here. It undoubtedly matches the animation properly and reveals off Entice Jaw’s freaky mouth. Yikes!

* Not solely does his mechanical arm look cool right here but it surely has elbow articulation, too. It is all one coloration however the element is not unhealthy (once more, how merely styled this line is) and it does make for a enjoyable addition to the toy. A robotic arm is at all times a lot cooler than an everyday arm. 

*  The 8.5 inch figures are constructed in a different way than the 5.5 inch figures with a greater vary of movement within the arms due to the swivel/hinge elbows and shoulders. Entice Jaw would not have the Energy Assault function of the smaller figures however as a substitute has an ordinary swivel waist. He does really feel sturdy and sturdy, although, and looks as if he’d deal with loads of play. 

* Just like the smaller variations of the Netflix impressed Entice Jaw this man has the cool medieval styled boots and stitched pants. This actually jogs my memory of the 200x model of Entice Jaw.

   Entice Jaw is not unhealthy. These undoubtedly aren’t probably the most thrilling Masters of the Universe toys ever however their bigger dimension is sort of cool they usually’re priced fairly cheap for being 8.5 inches and articulated. If you already know a youthful child who likes the brand new present they may like these. Entice Jaw will get a Good and a 1/2 from me. He is sort of primary however he is enjoyable. Not as a lot enjoyable because the smaller 5.5 inch Entice Jaw, although. The smaller figures are nonetheless cooler than the bigger guys.
