I ordered 1 KG from the Matty website and imagine my surprise when I got the Bronze one.
I got it on Monday and just decided to open it just now. I was affraid of all the feedback that has been surrounding this fig with broken feet, resealed boxes, etc.
Mine was not perfect. I don't know who decided to place the sword with the packaging in a very awkard position. His hand had come apart from the wrist section.
Luckily it was an easy fix and it's back to looking fantastic!

I actually wanted the normal version, but I'm not complaining in the least bit! I'll still pick it up.
What are the issues with the figure? I haven't really kept up with any of the He-Man stuff.

I haven't really kept up with any of the He-Man stuff. | Some figs have arrived with broken feet, some boxes were open and then resealed to check if the variant was there (before they were mailed out), some have capes that are falling apart (not glued entirely) and some have the whole gimmick with the lights and voice stop working.

The tape on the outer box was still intact, but it looked like the tab had been messed with. Everything else was fine. Lights, voice, figure were in good shape. I can't tell you how many times I opened the draw bridge last night to see/hear "I have the power!" Really took me back.
Do you know if the figure problems are said to be a problem with the normal line, or just this sdcc run?
