He-Man v2 and Man-At-Arms v2 MOTU Core Wave 3 In-Hand Images

Fresh in from the community and hitting Target stores, @reyespwrranger came through with some great in-hand shots of the MOTU Core He-Man v2 and Man-At-Arms v2 from Mattel, and these images are exactly what collectors have been waiting to see. @reyespwrranger gives us a solid look at both figures out of packaging, and there’s a lot to appreciate here. He-Man v2 carries markings on him and a recolor plus a cool grappling hook that kids will love. The armor sits well on the body, and the Power Sword has a nice heft to it in these photos. Man-At-Arms v2 is equally impressive, with that iconic helmet and chest armor looking sharp and visually better than his v1 release. He carries his classic weapon loadout and if you have been waiting for single pack version of MAA, here is your chance! As far as we can tell, Man-At-Arms, he goes with the classic deco like the first time around in the Amazon Exclusive 4-pack. Scroll through the images below and see how they look for yourself.

Where to Buy

Man-At-Ams v2

Here you can see the classic gold armor and how the thigh guards carry the same dense mechanical sculpting found on the chest plate, with recessed panel lines and vented details throughout. A small baton is sculpted on the left hip, adding a nice functional touch to the belt.

Man At Arms v2 comes loaded with his mace and blaster drawn, and the mace features a bulbous, ridged head with a narrow segmented shaft that gives it a satisfying heft. The grid-textured bodysuit peeks through beneath the armor panels across the midsection, and @reyespwrranger’s angle here really lets you take in the full spread of his gear at once.

The rear armor piece has a sculpted backpack-style housing with recessed compartments and raised mechanical detailing, sitting flush against the teal bodysuit. The copper thigh guard on the back of the leg mirrors the front panel’s shape, and the gold-toned boots show off a layered, segmented cuff design from this angle.

The side profile reveals how the gold shoulder armor stacks in multiple overlapping layers, with concentric circle motifs and slotted vents sculpted into each plate. The forearm guard wraps tightly with the same dense mechanical patterning, and the ribbed collar around the neck adds a functional separation between the helmet and chest piece.

The belt buckle on the back shows a compact, ridged clasp detail flanked by small pouches on either side, all sitting snugly against the dark bodysuit’s midsection. From this angle you can also see how cleanly the gold boot cuffs wrap around the shins, with vented grille patterns carved into each guard.

Man At Arms v2 sports a heavily sculpted copper-toned armor with layered plating across the chest and shoulders, contrasting against the dark teal bodysuit underneath. The blue helmet with its ribbed texture and side-mounted ear guards pairs well with the bright blue belt, tying the whole color scheme together.

He-Man

He-Man v2 shows off a battle look with dark slash marks scattered across his torso and arms, paired with a metallic blue chest armor featuring a bold cross emblem. The grappling hook and cord accessory add a nice departure from his usual loadout, and @reyespwrranger framed the figure well to show off the full spread of gear.

Like v1, the face sculpt carries a determined expression with a strong brow and set jaw, while the black war paint streaks across one eye and down the cheek add a rugged, tribal feel. His tousled hair has a natural windswept volume to it, with individual strands sculpted throughout the crown and sides.

The side profile gives you a great look at the battle paint app running down the upper arm, with claw-like gouges and torn skin texture sculpted into the surface. The heavy leather bracer and riveted belt both carry detailed buckle and strap.

Here are the markings from the other side and the sword sits snugly in the back-mounted sheath, with its textured grip and ridged pommel visible just above the shoulder line.

The Power Sword runs nearly the full length of the figure from this rear angle, and you can appreciate the layered crossguard design and tapered blade sculpt. The dark loincloth has a pleated, segmented cut at the bottom edge, and the tall boots feature a subtle fold at the top with a small buckle detail at the knee.

The rear view here highlights the metallic chest armor’s back plate, with its riveted straps and worn, weathered finish wrapping tightly around the torso. The loincloth’s individual leather strips fan out with stitched edging and small stamped rivets at each tip.
