In an unexpected but exciting crossover, Mattel is combining the worlds of Masters of the Universe and Hasbro's Transformers. We have already seen a few of these figures, like Man-At-Arms, who dons new Bumblebee armor to take on Skeletor, who has acquired his own Megatron-themed armor. However, you can now have an impressive collaboration like this without the two main heroes, and now Mattel has debuted their new Optimus Prime Armor He-Man figure! The Most Powerful Autobot Armor in the Universe has arrived as this brand new figure blends the heroic strength of He-Man with the legendary design of Optimus Prime.
Designed in the Masters of the Universe Origins 5.5-inch scale, He-Man features 16 points of articulation and will have a removable Optimus Prime face mask. A nice selection of themed Transformers weapons is also included, like a Matrix of Leadership Power Sword, an Energon Shield, and an Energon Axe to take down Skeletor and his devious Megatron Armor. Pre-orders are already live for $29.99 with a January 2026 release, and be on the lookout for the MOTU x Transformers Scare Glow/ Starscream collab figure also coming soon.
