With the zombie head on, he's a Snakeman. He mightbe otherwise being green and all. Just going from the bio.
I just put my Alfredo Alcala Skeletor head on my default Skeletor. It looks so much better than the stock version. The hood comes down over the neck so it blends in with the harness thing. I always hated that you could see light blue on his neck before.

I bought Battle armour Skeletor for my friend yesterday. Paid for it at 3pm, it arrived at 8am the next day! Fuck, that's fast. BA Skelly really is cool. Add Draego-Man's flame off sword and the Alcala head for pure and utter win.
As a kid I didn't care for the battlearmor get up's, but now with the palace guards getting them and seeing pictures like these I'm beginning to reconsider. The Alcala head looks sweet on that and good call on the sword!
And a one day turn around on that figure? I'm still waiting for my Fisto who got caught up in red tape. Guess the guy doesn't consider day of sale as a business day (paid for it 00:57:35) so the day had just started and that was on Jan 31st and hasn't shipped it yet.

Yeah, I'm getting a little nervous. Its great he left feedback two days ago but ebay says I should receive it 2-5-13 (tomorrow) and its not being listed as being shipped yet. I'm hoping its just a case of "Oops, I forgot to input the shipping number" and it arrives on time. If not... oh boy. I swore I wouldn't deal with ebay again after a couple other people stole from me and ebay/paypal did nothing to get my money or the product. I really hope I didn't get stung again. The guy has quite a few transaction under his belt and 100% feedback but we all know that the feedback for ebay is total bullshit now anyway.

Wow, Grayskull and that 4" Huntress figure are the high points.
The rest of those MOTU figures are truly craptacular. Castaspella?!.... no, I think I'd rather light $40 on fire.

What an awful, pun-laden name. Ugh.
I had the Mantenna figure as a kid. The rest, besides Grayskull, are wtf figures. They're really running out of recognizable figures, eh?
I really want a Snake Armour He-Man as well. I only want Mantenna and Icer out of the reveals. I like clear figures.
Who the f#$% is Icer? I saw that pic and it clearly looks like Iceman had an intimate relationship with Capt Cold...
He was in one episode of the original He-man cartoon, Evil warrior of Skeletor. I think the episode was called The ice age cometh, or some shit like that. Still a wasted space for some 200x godness.
Those pics are just sad. Seriously, after Ram-man, I'm done, just waiting on the castle.
I know there are some die-hards that will buy anything MOTU, but with this year's weak offerings, I can feel the support dwindling. It's had a good run, but I question whether or not there will be nearly enough support for a '14 Sub. "Hey collectors, here are some guys you've never seen before that appeared in the background of a PoP episode. Only $40 each to your door. Come sign up!"

Who the hell is Shakoti?
Batra is just terrible and Icer, well I just watched that episode on utube and I think I'll be passing on this one as well.
I was really hoping to get Tung Lashor before the line ended... hope we can squeek one more year out. I wish the battle ram would be released as well

Yeah, I would be all over a Battle Ram. I just bought a vintage one the other day to use for a custom.
Well that lying little cunt Toy Guru got me again. Way to go in making the Castle way smaller than promised, you fucking little weasel.
I swear Mattel just can't back up a single fucking promise. Does cutting an inch off the height save them so much money? I bet not. Now all the figures have to bend over just to stand up in the castle or get through the drawbridge.
Way to fucking go, you fucking moron.

Does this mean online only?...AKA "impossible to get"
I'd really like to get Huntress and Elongated man, but not enough to stalk Mattys sh!tty site...
DC Universe Club Infinite Earths Figures
Did they actually come out and say it? I saw the pics and I noticed that it looked noticeably smaller than the mockup and concept pics. Then I decided that my memory was faulty. It really just looks like a more detailed version of the original.
I read where TG said that really mad people could cancel their preorders, and at the time, I wasn't sure why they'd be mad... but if they shrunk it significantly over what we were sold, I can see people being pissed.
Yeah, he flat out said it. I guess that's why they allowed cancellations. I just don't get it though. Why even risk the cancellations - just make the fucking thing as it was promised. 
Well, if they could make it smaller and cheaper while keeping the price to us the same, why not screw us?!
Did it just change an inch? That seems like too little for anyone to notice. The pics look a lot more than an inch smaller.

I've been trying to find his comments, do you have a link? I wanna strangle that little puke.
Hell, make it bigger with no accessories and if they offered those in a accessory pack I'd buy it. I just want what they promised. little bastard
nevermind I see where they reference it

The fuckers at Mattel should be tarred and feathered over the FALSE ADVERTISING on Castle Greyskull.
I recall watching this OFFICIAL VIDEO from Mattel advertising the fucking thing:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=9GpAEhXAmDs#!
After watching the video at :44, I was convinced that this was the set for me given it's sheer size and expected detail.
What we are receiving, Gentlemen, is a classic LIE from Mattel. They have pulled off the perfect "Bait and Switch," in that the fuckers are now producing an item that is not the same size as originally advertised.
I promote and support the idea of demanding your 250 dollars back, since the currently promoted item is clearly smaller than the originally advertised item.
Current, proposed item in production:
