Glimmer Coming To MOTU Origins Cartoon Collection

Teased in the mini comic, The Horde Invasion, that came with the MOTU Origins Cartoon Collection figure assortment with She-Ra, Ram Man, and Hordak, Glimmer, the original leader of The Great Rebellion is reportedly coming to the line! Over the last couple weeks, we’ve receibed some anonymous information that Scorpia and Adora will be making their appearance in the line and Glimmer would make a fantastic addition!

Glimmer Concept

Thanks to the incredibly talented Eternal Customs on Facebook, we can see what a Cartoon Collection Glimmer might look like!

Here is a concept of what a MOTU Origins Glimmer could look like but with Origins articulation.

Glimmer

Glimmer is the Princess of Bright Moon, the very beautiful daughter of Queen Angella and King Micah. She was the original leader of the Great Rebellion of Etheria until Adora took over and helped to establish much of its support structure. One of the main characters when you think of the Great Rebellion, Glimmer has been made into action figure twice thus far, once for the vintage Princess of Power line of the 1980’s and next in the MOTU Classics line in the mid 2000’s. Let’s take a closer look below.

In an effort to bring girls into the action figure market, Mattel came up with the action doll in the Princess of Power line of the 1980’s. The vintage Glimmer Action Doll was released in 1984 by Mattel and came with a shimmery silver vest and skirt piece. She was dressed in pink and silver and had a jeweled pink staff. She had real rooted pink flowing hair that you could comb, and beautiful makeup on her face. She joined the rest of the rebellion in this new genre of action dolls.

Here we can see a modern version of the Glimmer from the 2014 MOTU Classics line.

Glimmer also appeared on the art for the Power Con 2020 exclusive She-Ra figure.
