I could so kick my brother's butt!
Series: Masters of the Universe Classics
Real Name: Adora of the House of Randor
Title: Most Powerful Woman in the Universe
Year: 2010


Channeling the combined Power of the Universe and the Wisdom of the Elders of Eternia, Adora transforms into She-Ra, the most powerful woman in the Universe. Her strength comes not from brute force but from sheer will and her cunning magical powers and healing abilities. She also has the power to communicate telepathically with animals. As both She-Ra and Adora, she helped lead the Great Rebellion of Etheria against the Horde invaders. Later, when Hordak found an escape to Eternia, she followed him along with several of her friends and allies. Once there, the Princess of Power joined forces with the now renegade Masters of the Universe, who without King Randor, had becomes outcasts in their own land, fighting against Hordak's new tyranny!

Review: Much like it was with her brother He-Man, there are several different versions of She-Ra out there. In the most popular one she is the kidnapped sister of Adam, taken by Hordak, and brought up as a Force Captain in the Fright Zone before gaining the Sword of Grayskull and becoming She-Ra, the Princess of Power. There is another version, however, told in pack-in comics and audio adventures, of a She-Ra living on Etheria, no Horde, and basically just having fun with her friends with only a little mischief here and there by Catra. Take your pick which one you like more.

The Classics She-Ra figure pays homage to both the cartoon and the toy version of She-Ra with two different heads, one being a faithful recreation of her cartoon noggin', the other featuring the turn-around mask/tiara thing the toy had. She also comes with a detachable cape, the golden shield the toy had, and a golden version of the Power Sword, too. Like all Classics figures, she is very nicely articulated and leaves little room to complain. The only slight flaw is that the head with the turn-around mask/tiara thing has a big peghole in the forehead, so there is no way to show her without any mask or headdress on.

Bottom line: if you like She-Ra, be it cartoon or comic version, you will probably like this Classics version of her.

Rating: A-
