Blade is looking amazing with his spot on movie appearance and realistic chainmail looking outfit.
His laser whip has a very cool look to as it appears to be energized the way it is sculpted and molded.

Blade was teased on the side panel of Beast Man’s box art! So we had a inkling that he was coming to Masterverse back then!
Blade, evil master of the sword looked like a pirate and was featured in the was live action 1987 Masters of the Universe movie.
Blade was a mercenary, and one of Skeletor’s finest warriors. He was a swordsman of great skill, carrying two swords and an array of knives. He had a deep hatred of He-Man, and was eager to face him in battle.
Blade was sent to Earth by Skeletor, along with Beast Man, Karg and Saurod, to find the second Cosmic Key. There, Blade faced He-Man in one-on-one combat, although he retreated with the others when Teela and Man-At-Arms arrived. Blade was then forced to return to Skeletor in disgrace, and begged for one more chance; Skeletor instead vaporizing Saurod, as Blade looked on in horror. When Evil-Lyn intervened to save the lives of Blade, Karg and Beast Man, Blade accompanied her back to Earth.
