Mattel Reveals New 1987 Movie Masters of the Universe Figures

He-Man-figure-header

New Masters of the Universe figures based on the critically panned 1987 live-action film starring Dolph Lundgren and Frank Langella are coming soon.

Mattel has created He-Man and Skeletor action figures based on the 1987 Masters of the Universe live-action movie. They’re not the first 1987 movie Masters figures: Blade, Saurod and Gwildor appeared in the ’80s toy line, and Super7 made Ultimates of He-Man, Skeletor, and Karg. But these will be the first Mattel versions of the two main characters, and presumably available on a wider basis.

Revealed on the Masters of the Universe Twitter account, the figures capture the film’s rough likenesses of He-Man and Skeletor, who were played by Dolph Lundgren and Frank Langella, respectively. While release dates have yet to be announced, the figures will come with weapon accessories — including He-Man’s Power Sword and Skeletor’s Havoc Staff — and packaging inspired by the film.
