Lord Masque (Masters of the Universe Classics)

Lord Masque is a villain from the episode "House of Shokoti." He's not much of a character, just tasked with guarding Shokoti's House of Darkness and trying to scare away the archaeological expedition Prince Adam and Ram-Man accompanied out into the Sands of Time. Masque is more of a cool design than a character but let's be honest that's most of the Masters of the Universe.

He's a pretty typical MOTU Classics figure in terms of articulation. The mask is well done which one would hope to be the case when the character's name is Masque.





Are we on Eternia or in the Thunderdome?

I've never really understood the point of straps like these. I mean they make sense if they hold your weapons or Hawkman's wings, but here they just seem to be for show.




Under the cape.


Nice detailing on all the straps.






This much more "New Adventures of He-Man"-styled shield did not appear in the episode, nor did the sword.

But translucent green weapons are always welcome in my collection.


"En Garde!"

Look who's masking too...

  1. Cool, I have never heard/seen this character. The weapon + shield are pretty sweet! But yeah...the cross straps...one of those mysteries of the toyverse!
