Masters Of The Universe Masterverse Movie Evil-Lyn Action Figure Review

 

I thought that Mattel would release a movie He-Man and Skeletor and be done but today I bring you their newest 1987 movie release, Evil-Lyn.

Masters Of The Universe Masterverse Movie Skeletor by Mattel Review

 

After an extended break, I bring you my review of Movie Skeletor as part of Mattel's Masters Of The Universe Masterverse toy line. This figure, along with He-Man, are the first two releases in the Masterverse toy line based upon the 1987 motion picture Masters Of The Universe.

Masters Of The Universe Masterverse Movie He-Man by Mattel Review

 

In the mail today was a box full of He-Man goodness! I preordered both Masterverse Movie figures and for whatever reason, they were shipped separately so today I bring you my review of He-Man. Besides the review itself, I will also be comparing this release to Super7's Movie He-Man release from a few years ago. Is the Masterverse version better than Super7?

Masters Of The Universe Mattel Masterverse 1987 Movie He-Man and Skeletor Announcement

Masterverse Movie Figures Box Art

On August 30th, Mattel announced that they would be releasing a movie He-Man and Skeletor action figures from the Masterverse toy line. These will be the second modern action figures based on the 1987 movie.

Masters Of The Universe Origins Teela Review

Today I bring you a review of the Masters Of The Universe Origins Teela Heroic Warrior Goddess! action figure from 2020. Teela is a member of the good side in MOTU and one of the very few female characters, at least from the 1980s iteration of MOTU. 

Masters Of The Universe Origins Battle Armor He-Man Review

 

Today I bring you a review of my first MOTU Origins toy from the 2021 releases, Battle Armor He-Man. Unlike the standard He-Man released in 2020, this He-Man is a "Deluxe Figure Set" which means this figure comes with extra accessories as well as an increase in price so continue reading to see if Battle Armor He-Man is worth the price increase.

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe Magazine - Summer 1987 Review

During the prime of  He-Man and the Masters Of The Universe in the 1980s, I was very young without my own money so I could only get things if my parents would buy them for me. At the time my parents didn't have a ton of money and if I was allowed to pick something out at the store I would go for a new action figure every time compared to a magazine, that is until I grew up a bit and started to read more. Because of this I never had any of the MOTU magazines from the 80s but I know for a fact if I'd seen this issue at the stores I would have begged for it since it had the movie He-Man on the cover.

Masters Of The Universe Origins Skeletor Review

 

In order to have a great tv show/cartoon/toy line you need a great bad guy for the good guys to struggle against and I think Masters Of The Universe hit a home run when inventing Skeletor. People who have no knowledge of MOTU can probably name a character or two but everyone knows Skeletor, for a property that hasn't really been in the public eye since the 1980s he's still mentioned tons of non-related tv shows. Last week I brought you MOTU Origins He-Man and today I bring the ultimate bad guys of the Universe, Skeletor.

Masters Of The Universe Origins He-Man Review

Today I'm very happy to bring you my first review of the new Masters Of The Universe Origins toy line by Mattel. For my first action figure review, I had to go with the big guy He-Man, The Most Powerful Man In The Universe. Unlike the Masters Of The Universe Classics toy line that was designed for adult collectors, this line is designed to be modern recreation of the original toys, basically the 80s toys with modern articulation. Will He-Man and this new toy line become a cash cow for Mattel like the original toy line was?

Masters Of The Universe Origins Now In Stores

With the global pandemic, I really don't have a reason to leave the house right now because my wife works out of the house and loves to shop so she buys the regular household items like food and whatnot. I've been to my local Wal-Mart twice since the world shut down, the first time I lucked out and found two of the rereleased Ghostbuster figures from the 1980s. On Monday she said she needed to do some shopping and asked me to come along so I agreed thinking that it would give me the change to go to the toy aisle and see if they have anything new and interesting that I may like and let me tell you I hit the jackpot.

Propstore Live Auction August 26-27 2020 - Masters Of The Universe Memorabilia Results

Today I have the results of the Propstores Live Auction from August 26-27 2020, particularly the Masters Of The Universe memorabilia results.

I wasn't sure how the pandemic would affect the prices and from what I can see it had no change as every MOTU piece sold for higher than the estimate except two that sold for the minimum and one selling for three thousand dollars above.

Propstore Live Auction August 26-27 2020 - Masters Of The Universe Memorabilia

In a few days, Propstore will be having a live movie memorabilia auction on August 26th and 27th 2020. There are some truly wonderful objects available and if we weren't in the middle of a pandemic I would be interested in a few things, one in particular. Even though there is a fair share of props from Masters Of The Universe, there are props from nearly every popular movie from the last 50 years, something for everyone.

Masters Of The Universe: The Motion Picture Mexican Lobby Card

About ten years ago I found this lobby card on eBay and bought it, I can't remember exactly but I paid less than 10 dollars shipped for it so all in all pretty inexpensive. When I bought this it was listed as a Mexican lobby card but other than being in Spanish I cannot confirm nor deny that this is from Mexico. This lobby card measures 17 3/4 inches by 11 5/8 inches (45 cm by 29.5 cm) and is made out of thin paper more similar to printer paper than either a movie poster or a lobby card made out of photographic paper.

Here is an example of a Spanish Lobby Card.

Masters Of The Universe Miniatures By Quest Miniatures

When the pandemic started I needed some new projects to work so when I saw these Masters Of The Universe miniatures I had to get them. As I write this these are the only MOTU miniatures that you can get besides some that were released in the 1980s that are small, hard to find, and expensive. These look excellent, are affordable, and I think they look great.

Masters Of The Universe: The Motion Picture German Film Card

"The unbeatable success"

Today I have a German film card for the 1987 classic film Masters Of The Universe: The Motion Picture. Besides being released in conjunction with the release of the movie I do not have any information on his card.

Mega Construx Pro Builders Moss Man From Masters Of The Universe Review

Today I have the last review of the first wave of the Mega Construx Pro Builders based upon the Masters Of The Universe toy line. We have Beast Man's good counterpart the environmentally friendly Moss Man. This figure is all new to the Mega Construx line and not a repaint like Skeletor or rereleases from the original Mega Construx line.

Masters Of The Universe: The Motion Picture Pin-Back Button

Today from my archives I bring you another piece of memorabilia from Masters Of The Universe: The Motion Picture, a pin-back button. I understand that this movie isn't very popular with the general public but it has a cult following and if there is anyone out there that is interested in this then this is for you.

Masters Of The Universe Classics God Skeletor By Super7 Action Figure Review

Unfortunately today we have the last figure in Super7's Masters Of The Universe Classics: The Motion Picture action figures wave. I've already reviewed Commander Karg, Rebel Leader He-Man, and Dark Despot Skeletor, all characters from the Masters Of The Universe: The Motion Picture which leaves us with God Skeletor.

Masters Of The Universe: The Motion Picture Atnena He-Man Post Card

Today I bring you a postcard that was released for the Masters Of The Universe motion picture. I'm going to be listing the items I've collected over the years from the MOTU movie and I thought I'd start with an easy one today.

Masters Of The Universe: The Board Game CMON Kickstarter

On May 29th, 2020 CMON announced they would be releasing a Kickstarter for a new board game with miniatures sometime next year. This announcement has me very excited for the chance to play a new MOTU game and get some new miniatures.
