A new Walmart Collector Con is upon us, and that means new and exclusive releases are on the way. One of which is the first figure to be released for Mattel's new 5.5" line of Masters of the Universe figures. This line drops the big, classic 80s style for more modern figures that fans won't want to miss. The first figure to arrive will be a special-edition Skeletor with 14 points of articulation.
This version of the Evil Lord of Destruction draws inspiration from the dramatic artwork of legendary comic illustrator Alfredo Alcala. His darker interpretations helped shape the character's early visual identity, and the head sculpt captures just that. On top of a new design and packaging, Mattel has also given Skeletor some sleek gold armor, a soft goods cape, and his Havok Staff. A new era of the Masters of the Universe is here for kids and adults, and it all begins with this Walmart Collector Con release. Skeletor is set to go up for pre-order on March 19 for $9.95.
