Dragon Blaster Skeletor Sketch Book Series MOTU Origins Concept

With the confirmation that MOTU Origins Sketch Book Series Spikor and Sy-Klone, with his subsequent figure reveal, package reveal, and preorder, the door is wide open to explore other figure concepts that could make it into the line. Given Sy-Klone’s package reveal, we could see Two-Bad making it to the line, along with He-Man and Evil Incarnate (aka Skeletor) that were teased on Hordak and Grizzlor’s box art. We recently featured the Dragon Blaster Skeletor concept in our MOTU Origins Sketch Book Series Part 2 article and is amazing to see it in plastic! The amazing and talented customizer, bombstaroutkast, has created a concept that we hope to see make it to the MOTU Origins Sketch Book Series line!

Dragon Blaster Skeletor Artwork

Although no notable action feature is revealed, a precursor to Dragon Blaster Skeletor was illustrated by Colin Bailey. The chains and the lock are identical to those used on the 1985 dragon-centric variant. It’s really cool to see some elements of the concept figures making their way into the vintage lines designs.

Dragon Blaster Skeletor Concept

bombstaroutkast did a fantastic job tranlating the art found in the Power and the Honor Foundation book and turning it into an outstanding figure! As the original art design lacked a Dragon, bombstaroutkast felt he needed to add this element to the design, which we thought was a great choice!

This version of Skeletor also features some notable differences with his original release and vintage figure. For example, bombstaroutkast sculpted huge tusks that protrude from his chest. He also have him a set of black chains, which contrats nicely with the set of silver chains on the Dragon.

The helmet is really the centerpiece of the figure as, in the original concept, it looked like they wanted Skeletor to wear a skull of an animal, which is pretty darn cool! A villain with a skull for a face wearing the skull of an animal is just brilliant!
