![]() This He Man looked a little different, with brown hair, brown shorts and a different baldic. The Wonder Bread company made a version that was part of a mailorder promotion during the early 80’s that is fairly hard to find these days as not many were made. Other versions of He Man were made by other companies. ![]() The spring was actually an elastic band, so it would wear out after enough “hits”. This gave him surprising strength to hit other enemies. The action figure pivoted at the waist which was interesting because the waist contained a spring which brought He Man back to the original position. His hair was blonde and his shorts and boots were colored an off-brown shade. The baldric covered the chest area with an “X” shape. His came packaged with a gray sword, a battle axe and a shield. This was a departure from the standard 3 ¾ inch figures of the day. The size of the original 1981 He Man action figures was 5 ½ inches tall. Only Man-at-Arms knew Prince Adam was really He Man. He Man kept his identity hidden from his family to protect them. In many of the television episodes Duncan revealed some new device that could help to destroy the bad guys. Duncan created the new technology for the super hero. His sidekick was called “Man at Arms” and he was the closest friend of He Man. The tiger is green and timid, but when Adam, He Man’s alter-ego, transforms, so does the tiger. The tiger he rode on is similar to He Man in personality. He is seen as a good guy, a fighter of the evil Skeletor. He Man was a super-human in many capacities. The source of his powers were magical forces emanating from the Castle Grayskull. He could rub his hands together fast enough to make glass out of sand. He ran much faster than normal and created a vacuum while doing so. With his breath he could blow with the power of Superman. He could transform into a tornado and whirl himself away in flight. ![]() He would transform into He-Man by raising his sword and saying, “By the power of Grayskull!”, at which point his transformation would begin. When he transformed himself into the hero we all know, he was capable of lifting whole cities somehow. He Man had a bevy of things he could do over other mortals.
