This is just to see differences, not to criticize. Just to compare. She-Ra: Princess of Power (1985) and She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018)
Adora
Body: Same body type, just younger.
Outfit: Same color scheme but now she has pants, not what looked like a long sleeve unitard. Also she has a red jacket instead of vest.
Personality: Major difference between Adora and She-Ra now. Before Adora spoke softer and She-Ra had a more authoritative booming voice but the personalities were the same. Now they are different. Adora is more unsure of herself and questions herself.
She-Ra
Body: Younger and taller. Still with muscles but not as boosom-y which caused an uproar with men who grew up lusting over her and calling the new version a boy but she is clearly more feminine than the current Adora.
Outfit: Modesty shorts, a shirt, shoulder pads and the red gem is not on the tiara.
Personality: Basically at first she was an entity but soon Adora takes control.

Glimmer
Body: Tan, shorter and more thickness. She still has a flat stomach and much stronger. Hair inspired by Cutie Honey. I like her positive body image.

Outfit: Same pink, purple and light blue color scheme but in different places. She lost the strange headdress and now has gloves.
Personality: The original was a little worry-wort but this one much more. The power set is the same and both have something to prove. Glimmer originally was more the one to be saved, now she is the one doing saving--even though she does get kidnapped and gets a 'flu' effecting her powers.
Bow
Body: African-American, different hair, skinnier
Outfit: Same colors but re-arrangement and slight armor. Still have the middrift.
Personality: The original was boastful and a little full of himself, this sort of transferred to SeaHawk. Bow is more the heart of the team but still an inspiration to townfolk.
Angela
Body: Similiar, wings seem to be less feathery than before. Her hair is more similar to Glimmer.
Outfit: Her bright pink has become faded and more purple this time than blue. Similar motifs.
Personality: More of a doting mother this time and still protective of her daughter. Her British accent is more heavy this time.
Castaspella
Body: Similar, dark hair instead of red.
Outfit: Original had blue and orange. New one has gold and purple.
Personality: She is more of a doting passive aggressive aunt. In the original, she was a sage adviser with magical knowledge and a past with Shadoweaver.
Madame Razz
Body: Shorter, chubbier
Outfit: Where the left was a stereotypical American witch, the right is the stereotypical Anime witch with moths. She has longer hair and glasses now.

Swift Wing "Swifty"
Body: Same body, same color scheme, wings are different as the back are pink and the inside multi-colored. His mane is much more wavy.
Outfit: No more mask.
Personality: Much more active and talkative than before. His original had a gruffer voice and much more a commenter than an active member of the team.

Outfit: Similar with same color scheme.

Shadow Weaver
Body: Similar, her hair peaks out more.
Outfit: Instead of just a one-color cloak, her outfit has different shades of red and she has a mask now.
Personality: Still evil and scheming, now she is more of the strict loveless mother. Both second-in-command to Hordak. Original she had her own magic source. The new one she relies on the Black Onyx.
Entrapta
Body: New Entrapta is shorter and more scrappy, her hair is an extension of her and she can use it to boost her height and get her out of tight spots. Her hair is pinkier.
Outfit: Her new outfit is more of a mechanic and has a welder mask, much different than her original incarnation.
Personality: Originally a run-of-the-mill villain. Both have the same tech skills and pensile hair. In the new one she is a part of the Princess Alliance first and then stumbles into the Horde, other than in the original where she is just part of the Horde.
Frosta
Body: I'm guilty of loving the original Frosta design and be hesitant of the new 11 year-old Inut-like child. She has grown on me. She also has darker and shorter hair.
