Skel-Knight MOTU Origins Movie Dropping Again For Walmart Collector Con July 2026
If you missed out on the Masters of the Universe Origins Movie Deluxe Skel-Knight the first time around, this is the update you’ve been waiting for. We’ve been tracking this figure since it was first discovered, and it’s been quite the ride watching it go from an unexpected find to a sold-out listing that left a lot of collectors empty-handed. The figure went up early, sold through fast, and that was seemingly that. But now the Walmart listing for Skel-Knight has resurfaced with a Walmart Collector Con drop date banner showing July 23, 2026 at 10am ET, which means this Skeletor warrior is getting a second chance on the shelves, even though he doesn’t appear on the official Walmart Collector Con July 2026 Preview page just yet. Priced at $26.97, this Deluxe Origins release packs in a seriously loaded accessory count with four weapons, swappable chest armor, three alternate heads, and removable upper and skirt armor, all on a 5.5-inch frame with 16 points of articulation. We’ve already seen how good he looks thanks to the in-hand images that surfaced, and those confirmed that the sculpt and deco deliver exactly the kind of movie-inspired detail collectors were hoping for. For anyone who wants to grab him this time, you can check the listing over at Walmart and be ready when that July 23rd window opens. Given how quickly he disappeared the first round, I wouldn’t expect him to linger.
Where to Buy

Skel-Knight wears layered dark armor with pale striped detailing across the chest and shoulders, and a long fabric-like skirt piece hangs from the waist. The accessory spread includes an axe, a bladed staff, a sword, a crossbow-style weapon, three alternate skull heads, and a swap-out chest armor piece.

The skull head has clean, simplified features with hollowed-out eyes and a narrow nose cavity, staying true to the Origins style while fitting the movie’s skeletal warrior design. His lower half features a tattered skirt, uneven edges that add a nice bit of texture against the hard plastic armor above.

Skel-Knight carries a staff topped with a curved hook and a large bladed axe, both with sculpted detailing along their shafts and heads. The helmet sits snugly over the skull face, with a pointed brim and a slightly glossy finish on the dark armor plating.

The batonette style rifle has a compact, angular build with a sculpted barrel and fin-like details along the body. Pale gold and cream tones on the alternate forearm gauntlet create a nice contrast against the black underlayer of the suit.

From the back, the dark armor’s sculpted plating has a layered, segmented design with raised ridges running down the spine and cream-colored trim tracing each panel’s edge. The soft goods skirt drapes with a worn, battle-damaged look, its frayed hems brushing just above a pair of chunky black boots.

The broad, stocky proportions of Skel-Knight are a good fit for the Origins scale, with an oversized torso and thick limbs that feel right at home next to other figures in the line. Three alternate skull heads and the swap-out chest armor piece give collectors plenty of options for army-building a whole squad of Skeletor’s warriors.
