For what its worth Ramen Toys, who were at the panel, said the figures were scaled slightly smaller than Masterverse. 

I think the Evil Lyn figure would of greatly benefited with a more expressive face sculpt than the neutral one. 😆 

Tell me those idiots aren't gonna mess around with scale now to get us to re-buy everything. I've already shot that down with Hasbro's Studio Series 86 nonsense where they've made certain figures silly large to justify their bullshit price points. It means major characters like 86 movie Prime and Megatron no longer scale with that collection you've been working on since 2019.

Mattel is crazy to be introducing a third MOTU scale. 

If these don’t align with Masterverse/Classics, easy pass. 

I just hope Masterverse/Classics and Origins scale aren’t done to make room for Chronicles and First Ones.

@grayskullguardsman In the event of a worst-case scenario, all future expenses will be allocated to Mondo. I have decided to prioritize larger diversity, both in terms of characters and quality, rather than having to restart my collection with each new semester. 😑

Oh man, yeah I am reading here and there that this really is a new scale, that Chronicles may be compatible to Hasbro’s stuff, Legends and Star Wars.

So Mattel really wants to cover all scales.

May have to do with making it compatible with their new DC line, though that is apparently 6.5in.

Uuuuugh… this is annoying. Not really because of the movie figs so much, but with everything else. Will MV continue???

Will they make us re-buy all classic designed characters in this new size, once movie figures are fading out?

I’m confident they will continue some Origins, at least the Vintage stuff online.

But I’m worried about Masterverse.

Anybody re-buying MV all over again in a different scale after the countless unfinished sublines that had needs a fucking brain scan.

Mattel needs to just incorporate MOTU 2026 into the existing MV line... call it whatever you want, but just make it scale with the rest -  just like the 87 movie figures do, as well as new eternia, new etheria, classic, new adventures, revelation, etc.

Mega Jay Retro is doing a livestream about these pictures of all the figures:

I just hope this line doesn't slow down Masterverse.

@sci-fitsunami Slowing down? It couldn't be going any slower than its current pace, at least compared to the Origins brand and its production run.

Regarding the size and amount of detail, just wanted to re-post this link that @DGSimo posted in another thread.

https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/mattel-builds-he-man-movie-buzz-with-new-action-figures-2026-01-29/
Check out the photos on the top of the article. Gives a better sense.

They are very detailed… They have some more… delicate? Details due to their smaller size.

Huge credit to @sketchyskeletor because I never heard or saw this video but he mentioned it last night and now it's all over the place!

Australian collector got a email last summer from a distributor detailing the First Ones, Chronicles and role play toys for the movie. Apparently he didn't read the email until now. lol

The First Ones are 5.5" along with Battle Cat and vehicles to be compatible. The Roton look great! Chronicles is shown and indeed are a specific 1:12 or 6" figure line aimed at collectors.

A talking Skeletor mask is shown with phrases and a moving jaw. This was revealed at the international toy fair and some photos have been teased. There's also a deluxe First Ones Power Sword that's 27 inches with lights, vibration and sounds. 

Honestly this line might be the one and all for me. The main thing missing thats needed is a movie Castle Grayskull!

@dgsimo Nice! Rammy has always been one of my favorite characters / figures! (Yes, even the hollow spring toy from my youth...)

This is an interesting take on the character... I'm surprised at how true to the original design he is!

So, if all of this promo material stays true, this line will indeed be shorter than the existing Masterverse figures..?

Here is a hi-res shot of Ram Man!

 
I'm still impressed with how closely his costume matches the vintage figure...

@dgsimo I’m confused– was sure this was a pretty good knockoff but then I saw the Mattel logo…?

Did you mean First Ones or first ones… 😅

Even the back of the packaging is low energy unless there's supposed to be English text otherwise.

First Ones is rumored to be the name of the movie toy line aimed at kids with vehicles, role play toys and more. The first 3 figures already dropped in Spain apparently.

@dgsimo Yah I know about First Ones, I just didn’t expect them to look like a knock off of Chronicles… (also had expected that it says “First Ones” on the package somewhere.

I guess I hadn’t looked at all the leaks etc because somehow, I was expecting something more akin the CGI line. 😅 

I mean, these look almost exactly like Chronicles, just a bit cheaper.

Now I’m curious about scale, ofc. 
Edit: I just saw further up the thread, 5.5)

@sketchyskeletor I’m sure this is European version, that can’t have an English bio, description “Most Powerful Man etc”. But these are not targeted at us anyway.

Somehow reminds me of Super 7 “Deluxe” versions of Thundercats (which really should be called “Basic”). Kind of dig the traditional blister card etc

Edit2: Watched the Aussie vid now, interesting the 2nd Skeletor has Origins accessories – the two removable flames from Stranger Things / ToG
