Terror Claws Skeletor Deluxe Release
The Masters of the Universe Origins Deluxe Terror Claws Skeletor is just as fun as the vintage figure that came out in 1986 with a much brighter color scheme. The action feature that made this figure so amazing back in the 80’s is retained and TC Skelly comes with some oversized claws and his trusty Dragon Weapon to strike fear into any foe! If you want to check out the in depth history of the Terror Claws Skeletor vintage figure, head over to the Battleramblog!
Card and Art
As Terror Claws Skeletor is a deluxe figure, he comes on the wider, larger MOTU Origins Card with his weapons and accessories on display in all of their glory. The rear of the card is where the money shot is as you can see Two-Bad and Spikor behind Terror Claws Skeletor ready to strike! Like other figures that have been teased on the Origins card art, we expect these figures to make it into the line but at the time of writing this review, they have not been officially announced yet.
Flying Fists He-Man Deluxe Release
Mattel brings us one of the most iconic Masters of the Universe figures with Flying Fists He-Man! An absolutely beautiful homage to the original 1985 vintage figure, complete with his shiny vac-metal armor, He-man swings with awesome might!
The deluxe packaging for Flying Fists He-man harkens back to the original vintage packaging. The front of the card back pays homage to the vintage card back with the blue background and red rock burst! Complimented by the image of Flying Fist He-Man swinging his mighty 3-headed mace. Also includes the “New for 22”, yellow “Modern Posing Retro Play” burst and action call-out of “Swings with awesome might” yellow burst as well.
The back of the card back features amazing artwork by the great Axel Gimenez. The artwork features Flying Fists He-Man swinging his mace with Fisto, Syklone, and Mossman by his side, and you will also notice a partial view of Eternia. What makes this card back artwork truly amazing is that this is one half of giant image that features the rest of Eternia with Terror Claw Skeletor, Two Bad and Spikor; when placed next to the Terror Claw Skeletor deluxe figure card back. The rest of the back of the card back features the typical cross sell art featuring all the Wave 7 characters and the Battle Action features of Flying Fist He-man with its distinctive illustrated instructions.
Flying Fists He-Man and Terror Claws Skeletor 2-Pack Box Back
Featuring 12 illustrations for how Flying Fists He-Man and Terror Claws Skeletor work, the box back also features a ton of cross sells from the heroic warriors, the Snake Men, and the Roton and Point Dread & Talon Fighter.
