Masters Of The Universe Classics Star Sisters 3 Pack by Mattel

The Packaging
The Star Sisters come in a large window box with the standard artwork that has graced the packaging of all MOTUC products to date. Despite the bright colors and generous use of glitter, the Sisters appear to be right at home between the Masters of the Universe Classics and Princess of Power logos, surrounded by the green bricks of Castle Grayskull.

Starla
Known as the “Bright and Beautiful Leader,” Starla lives up to her shining reputation with this MOTUC incarnation. Beautifully sculpted and painted, the contrast of bright yellows and deep reds make Starla the standout sister here. Details such as powder blue eye shadow that perfectly complements her orange skirt, and the subtle shading throughout the figure’s paint application, bring this sister to life in a way that is both bold and beautiful. Starla comes with a translucent yellow star staff and her loyal companion Glory Bird.

Jewelstar
Nicknamed “Hidden Beauty,” Jewelstar’s unproduced 1987 prototype included a distinctive action feature that would’ve allowed the doll to transform into a jewel. Though Mattel decided not to include the action feature for her MOTUC incarnation, the company still went the extra mile to make Jewelstar feel like a unique figure. Translucent plastic was used on the jewel-shaped armor that frames the soft features of her face and covers her knees, forearms, and upper back. The colors and shading used on Jewelstar’s cape give the illusion of an iridescent sheen and is another detail that makes this sister feel like unique addition to the MOTUC line. Jewelstar includes a pink glitter-infused translucent star staff as well.

Tallstar
Like her sister Jewelstar, Tallstar’s 1987 counterpart would have also included an action feature. Along with her neck, this Star Sister’s legs and arms would have been extendable body parts providing added play value to the “Lovely Lookout.” In order to mimic the classic action feature, Mattel has included arm, leg and neck extensions for the MOTUC version of Tallstar. Extensions simply snap into articulated joints giving the figure an approximate inch of added height. The figure’s detailed sculpt and placement of the extensions make the “stretchable” body parts appear like seamless additions and are a clever way to visually incorporate Tallstar’s stretching powers. While Tallstar’s costume won’t be winning any fashion awards, the figure’s detailed paint application is a thing of beauty from heels to hair. Tallstar also comes with an orange version of the same star staff included with her sisters.
