New Masters of the Universe Masterverse Deluxe Skeletor Figure Pre-Order - What Could It Be?

by Jay Cochran

This week a mysterious new Masters of the Universe figure pre-order listing has popped up online for what is simply being titled Masters of the Universe Masterverse Deluxe Skeletor. Both Amazon and our sponsor BigBadToyStore.com have had it listed and the price of it is around $33.

Other than the generic title which suggests its part of the Masterverse line and will be based on some version of Skeletor, we know very little about what this figure might be.

I will tell you that I did some digging to see if I could find out more about it and at one time it seemed the figure was coded as a "Deluxe Movie Skeletor". The word movie of course brings to mind maybe a figure based on the Frank Langella Skeletor from the 80s live-action movie. Now before we go off jumping to conclusions of that being what this figure will be, I should note the "Movie" portion of the title for the figure seems to have been dropped and there is nothing specific at this time other than that vague early code name to suggest this will be a live-action movie Skeletor figure.

Another possibility is that it could be a retail version of the 40th Anniversary Skeletor we saw initially released in this years SDCC exclusive set. We know the He-Man figure is getting a general release, and I will tell you I did see indications earlier this year that Mattel was floating the idea of also doing a regular retail version for Skeletor. The thing to note however is that this Skeletor listing is more expensive than the price of the 40th Anniversary He-Man. If this Skeletor listing was for a 40th Anniversary version, I am not sure why it would cost so much more than the 40th Anniversary He-Man.

Whatever this Skeletor listing is actually for, the release date is listed as October/November 2022, so I assume Mattel won't keep us in the dark about it for to much longer.

Another run, maybe since they showed some heads sculpts at Joefest... I already have the 3 heads and they look great.

I actually already have that Mattel movie figure but still need to replace it the head... That will be my next video.

I actually made a video replacing the Viking He-Man figure with one of Ramen's head.

If I'm lucky, maybe this will inspire Ramen to do another run of their heads, since this one looks nothing like Dolph and I missed out on the last batch.

Yeah was gonna say, this figure looks like the Masters movie except for that head, that's not Dolph that's just prince adam cosplaying as Dolph, not that cool too me, why bother with this if it doesn't have the actor's likeness?

I did too because I listened to people that Ramen wasn't legit...GLAD I didn't listen and got the Batmobile CAG sets.

I backed Ramen Toy since their first early bird run of 80s Commanders and I had no problems with them... Everything I ordered from them was delivered to me. I still collect their 80s Commanders line and also pre-ordered their Marshall figure AKA Bravestarr. ???

Same, definitely ordered that the moment they mentioned it. Still salty about the Flash release on thing. Poor quality control is one thing, but that was just an insult to the customers.

Agreed. I will say with the Ramen CAG set the shiny Batmobile is my fav at the moment. Though it is a dust magnet!
