Revealed at SDCC 2024 and put up for preorder during MOTU’s massive October 2024 Cartoon Collection figure drop, we have in-hand images of the Most Powerful Woman in the Universe courtesy of Mr. Home Arcade! Most recently, Cartoon Collection She-Ra was put up for preorder on Amazon along with the other figures in the wave. She-Ra even comes with an articulated wrist so she can raise her sword aloft and say “For the Honor of Grayskull!” So let’s dive in to this She-Ra MOTU Origins Cartoon Collection in-Hand images and check this amazing figure out!
She-Ra In-Hand Images
She-Ra looks amazing on her new card back, The new package design is gorgeous with Hordak looming above the fiery Castle Grayskull! We get a great view of the cross sell and that new She-Ra 40th Anniversary foil logo! We even get some cool characters teases on the back, which we discuss below. This packaging features artwork that is inspired by the She-Ra Princess of Power cartoon episode ” Treasures of the First Ones”. You will see Seahawk, Shakoti and a Horde Trooper teased on the art work.
She-Ra looks like she stepped right out of the Filmation She-Ra Princess of Power cartoon show! They did an amazing job with her face sculpt I also love that her outfit features bright gold accents and gold arm bracers. She of course is wearing her signature crown on her head. And this time she comes with a plastic cape.
Here you get a view of She-Ra from both left and right. You can see they used the new female knee design on this figure.
She-Ra comes with the magic sword that she again can hold aloft and say “For the Honor of Grayskull!” She also includes her shield.
She-Ra can strip down to her bare essentials as her skirt and cape are removable. This dressed down version of She-Ra could be referred to as Adora mid transformation to She-Ra.
Here is a comparison shot with the MOTU Origins She-Ra versions 1 & 2, plus the new Cartoon Collection version. You can see the differences between the toy design (left and right) and the Cartoon design (center).
With a quick outfit change, the Cartoon Collection She-Ra also looks fantastic wearing her previous versions outfit!

The scene shows Sea Hawk and She-Ra on the Mystic Isle!
She and Sea Hawk are drawn so beautifully! They look very Filmation inspired! Just love how Fetch illustrated these!
She-Ra Card Art and Teases
We love to see the card art teases and although these figures are not a guarantee, we love to think about the possibilities and we feature custom concepts from the community to envision what these figures could look like! On the card art, we see She-Ra and Sea Hawk fending off an attack from Octavia and a Horde Troopers.
The mystery is solved as the card art sketch features a tease for Octavia and Horde Trooper.
Octavia Tease
A surprising tease was to see Octavia, who appeared in the Princess of Power Filmation cartoon but was never made in the Princess of Power vintage line! Octavia is an octopus woman from Octopus Cove. She is the Horde-Commander. She is a sea commander in a sea port in The Sea of Sigh, a small Etherian ocean. When she first confronts She-Ra, Octavia easily captures She-Ra in her tentacles. She also demonstrates, with ease that she can capture a talented fighter like Sea Hawk, when captured by Octavia, Sea Hawk appears to be drained of energy, suggesting that Octavia has abilities similar to Leech, and she can drain energy from her opponents. Here is a digital render of Octavia done by the one and only Eternal Customs so we can get a sense of what a MOTU Origins figure could look like.
Her figure buck would be very unique with the tentacles coming out her back! She was released in figure form in the MOTU Classics line and that version came with 4 swords, where we are guessing the inspiration for the weapons came from.
Horde Trooper Tease
Here is custom Cartoon Collection Horde Trooper by Eternal customs with Filmation style armor so we can envision what a Cartoon Collection Horde Trooper could look like.
Sea Hawk
Sea Hawk is a pirate with no magical abilities; his skills, developed due to the influence of his father, the Falcon, are the product of hard work.
Here is how the amazing and talented Hunter Knight Customs
SDCC 2024 Reveal
It was amazing to see She-Ra revealed in Cartoon Collection form as she looks quite stunning! She features her iconic tiara, her red cape, and her classic white outfit with gold designs and the blue jewel in the center of her stomach. He face sculpt is captured perfectly has she has a stern and determined look on her face, as if the freedom of Etheria all depends on her!
She-Ra is a fictional character who originated from the animated television series titled “She-Ra: Princess of Power,” which was produced by Filmation and aired from 1985 to 1986. The character was created as a counterpart and sister to He-Man, who originated from the companion series “He-Man and the Masters of the Universe.” Both shows were based on Mattel’s toy line.
In the series, She-Ra is a heroic figure and the alter ego of Princess Adora, the twin sister of Prince Adam (He-Man). Adora was raised as a Force Captain in the evil Horde army on the planet of Etheria until she discovers the truth about her origins. She learns that she was kidnapped as a baby from her true family, the royal rulers of Eternia, and was brainwashed into serving the Horde.
After realizing the truth, Adora sides with the Great Rebellion, a group of rebels fighting against the Horde’s oppression. She gains the Sword of Protection, a magical weapon similar to He-Man’s Sword of Power. By raising the sword high and exclaiming, “For the Honor of Grayskull,” Adora transforms into She-Ra, the Princess of Power. She becomes the leader of the Great Rebellion and dedicates herself to freeing Etheria from the Horde’s control.
