The success of September’s Montreal Comic Con means that the organizers aren’t going to waste any time prepping for the next one!

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe is one of a handful of fandoms that seems to have grown stronger with time, twenty and thirty-somethings as enamoured with the nostalgia as with the original show. But fans need not dig up all their old merchandise from their parents’ basement: the folks at Mattel have been creating new figures and reissuing old ones.
Coming soon, six new figures will join the line of “Classics”, adding to ranks that already include the likes of He-Man and She-ra, Man-at-Arms. Clamp Champ, Skeletor, Mer-Man and more. The new guys are: He-Man and Skeletor re-issues, Zodak, Teela, Scareglow and Webstor.
You can check ‘em out, along with the rest of the figures, over in our Masters of the Universe section!

Nothing gets past this guy! All-seeing and evil, Trydor Esooniux Scope’s blindness was cured by the acquisition of a tri-optic visor, which allowed him powers like Gammavision, Night Vision, Distavision and more, while also giving him three eyes and creating the villain TRI-KLOPS.
This toy, part of the Masters of the Universe line, is now available for pre-order on our website. Originally a MattyCollector Exclusive, we’re pleased to offer this piece now, shipping later this month. It stands about seven inches tall and looks great. Plus, it comes with a bunch of really cool accessories fans will definitely go for.

What kind of food goes well with Master of the Universe Action Figures? We have a pretty good selection of MOTU Exclusive Figures (from MattyCollector) and I was eating my burger thinking what kind of toy would compliment my meal.
Who is Zodac from He-Man Master of the Universe?
Zodac is a cosmic being, serving neither good nor evil. He has helped He-Man many more times than Skeletor, because so often Skeletor upsets the cosmic balance. One time, Zodac revealed the Talon Fighter to He-Man which just proves my theory. Only once has Zodac helped Skeletor. Much of the confusion regarding Zodac is based on the figure’s package, he was labeled “evil,” although his actions show that label to be inaccurate.
Yes, I feel good eating my burger with this figure by my side. It compliments the meal….it completes me!
We also have other Master of the Universe He-Man Figures. If I was eating Fish N Chips, I would whip out my Exclusive Mer-Man Figure. Hey this one is a no-brainer! Here is a list of some other Exclusive Master of the Universe MOTU figures that were released by MattyCollector…I will have to let you determine what type of food goes with each figure:
Masters Of The Universe Classics Action Figure Exclusive: He-Man
Masters of the Universe Action Figure: Exclusive Stratos
Masters Of The Universe Classics Action Figure Exclusive: Skeletor
Masters Of The Universe Classics Action Figure Exclusive: Beastman
What is “Masters of the Universe”?
“Masters of the Universe” (MOTU) is a cartoon based on action figures by Mattel, Inc. and was animated by the now-defunct Filmation. The syndicated show, which featured the exploits of a super-strong hero named He-Man, debuted in Sept. 1983, and throughout the course of 2 seasons, aired 130 episodes. “Masters of the Universe” also goes down in marketing history as being the first cartoon of the ’80s to be based on an action figure line after FCC deregulation. Thank God for De-Regulation!
