MOTU Masterverse Dump (Jan. 2024)


 Last year I caved in and started collecting 7" Masterverse figures, in spite of telling myself that the MOTU Origins line was all I would collect from Mattel's Masters of the Universe lines, but I love these too much! Collecting Masters of the Universe Classics was cost prohibitive when Mattel produced that 6" line back in 2009, so this is kind of like a second chance to own larger scale MOTU figures like that. I have a lot of them to show, so here's a Masterverse dump just to get some opened to be enjoyed...

I can't say enough good things about these Masteverse figures, that seem to just get better with each new wave. I have more of these to show you here on the Super-DuperToyBox, until then check out my November 2023 post on the Masteverse Whiplash, Clawful, Beastman, and Mer-Man!

MOTU Origins Wave 3

I've had this 3rd Wave of MOTU Origins since early spring, but have had a hard time keeping up with others Origins and Masters of the WWE I'd found thereafter as they became more available. I'd recommend preordering from BBTS to ensure safe arrival and best shipping price. Zodac and Mer-Man were in my childhood collection back in '82, so I was delighted to open those, but She-Ra and Roboto didn't disappoint. Check out the video:


Like the other MOTU Origins figures, Wave 3 included a mini comic, though Dimensional Doom doesn't include She-Ra. Artwork from the original Masters figures, drawn by Alfred Alcala set my young imagination alight. I enjoy seeing these in the new Origins line, and hope it does for kids today what it did for us in the '80s. Visit the Battle Ram Blog to see more about the original mini comics and Masters of the Universe toys!

Masters of the Universe Origins has been my absolute favorite line of the last year, and I'm really looking forward to what else is to be seen- quite a bit more according to a recent statement by the Mattel MOTU design team. The nostalgia that Origins has stirred in me was a surprise, and I'm really enjoying it. Recommended!
