Skell-Ra MOTU Origins ThunderCats Availability & Release Date Update

Back in December 2024, we got information from an anonymous source regarding waves 1 and 2 of the new MOTU Origins ThunderCats Crossover line! Flash forward to today as we now have official images of the first wave of MOTU Origins ThunderCats Crossover figures, that include, Skell-Ra, Lion-O, Cheetara, and Battle-Cat Man. Given that Skell-Ra is a deluxe figure, we were concerned that he would be retailer exclusive, sold at the likes of Walmart or Target. We got some great news today as an anonymous source has confirmed that Skell-Ra will NOT be a retailer exclusive and he will be made available at a wide range of online retailers! We also got word that Skell-Ra will be shipping in June 2025 but that is all of the information we have at the moment! We are not sure when the figure will go up for preorder, but he is a likely candidate for the March 6, 2025 Mattel Creations REVEALED event where MOTU drops their massive catalog of figures.

Skell-Ra Official Images

Evil awakens with the Skell-Ra Action Figure ($29.99). This is such a cool idea where you get two figures in one! The collaboration of two iconic 80s brands, Masters of the Universe and ThunderCats, yields an action figure of the Ever-Living Evil of Eternia, Skell-Ra! He comes with 2 swappable heads, a reversible purple / red cape, and swappable harness and skirt armor pieces, so he can evolve from Skell-Ra into Mumm-Ra. The Sword of Plun-darr completes the double-edged picture.

You can switch between Skeletor and Mumm-Ra with the figure’s Sword of Plundarr weapon, a reversible cape, swappable heads, and swappable harness and skirt armor pieces. 

A hi res close up of Skell-Ra’s face shows you what an incredible job Mattel did with these sculpts! Skeletor looks super cool with his red eyes and skeleton jaw! Also the face sculpt for Mumm-Ra is so classic looking!
