Battle Armour Skeletor & Moss Man (Masters of the Universe Minis)

The second set of Masters of the Universe Minis has Battle Armour Skeletor and He-Man's ally Moss Man. Jump to both

Battle Armour Skeletor was originally released alongside Battle Armour He-Man (naturally) and their chests could spin to reveal battle damage. I have a vague recollection of this figure from visiting the family of one of my dad's old friends in another town when I was quite young. I like the fluorescent green/yellow of his face and the bright pink and teal bat-symbol is funky.

What is with the arm fins?

"I won't be the BUTT of your jokes!"


Moss Man is Eternia's answer to Swamp Thing. His fuzzy coating is attached via a neat procedure called "flocking" and I seem to remember reading about a controversy regarding whether or not his ears should be flocked in relation to the full sized MOTU Classics figure. The original Moss Man also had a "pine scent" allegedly.

Sword beats Wood?


"Mace to the Face!

"RAMming Speed!"





It's more Masters of the Universe back-to-back action
