Tri-Klops and Man-At-Arms MOTU Origins Movie Figures Discovered at Target AU

Breaking out of nowhere, we’ve got our first look at two unannounced MOTU Origins movie figures showing up in the wild before Mattel has even pulled back the curtain on them officially. A Reddit user in Australia stumbled upon both Tri-Klops and Man-At-Arms sitting right there on the shelf at a Target AU location, and while the discovery itself is exciting, there’s a catch: when they tried to purchase the figures, the system flagged them as not available for sale yet, which is the kind of heartbreak only a collector who’s held the thing in their hands can truly understand. What makes this even more interesting is that I don’t believe we’ve seen any official images of these two Origins figures from Mattel at all, so this shelf sighting is genuinely the first time collectors are getting eyes on how these movie versions of Tri-Klops and Man-At-Arms are shaping up in this scale and format. Seeing both figures now surface on retail shelves on the other side of the world adds a whole new layer of confirmation that these releases are very real and likely closer than we might have expected. Tri-Klops getting the Origins treatment is particularly noteworthy since he’s one of those characters collectors have been waiting to see translated from the new movie designs, and the fact that he’s showing up alongside Man-At-Arms suggests Mattel may be rolling these out as part of the same wave. We’ll be keeping a close eye on this one and hoping official images and preorder details aren’t far behind, because going from an Amazon listing to an in-store sighting without a single official reveal in between is exactly the kind of wild ride that keeps this hobby so unpredictable.

Full Card Front and Card Back Images

Man-At-Arms sits in the clear blister on a card featuring fiery, skull-laden artwork with red energy bursts and floating weapons. This is our best straight-on look at the actual figure, and they really nailed Idris Elba in Origins form, from the blue helmet down to the green and gold armor with its sculpted chest plate and layered shoulder guards.

The back of the card showcases artwork by @fetch.franciscoetchart, with Man-At-Arms in a green and copper suit of armor, one hand raised and the other gripping a mace overhead, posed on rocky terrain against a fiery Eternian skyline with Castle Grayskull in the background. Fetch gave him a great sense of motion here, and the mix of techy armor plating with the classic green fabric underneath translates the movie design nicely into illustrated form.

Tri-Klops gives us our best look yet at the figure still on the card, and the details are strong. His olive green armor has gold trim running down the chest strap and across the belt, with a studded loin cloth, black boots, and that signature visor helmet sporting a red center lens.

The back of the card features striking artwork by @fetch.franciscoetchart, depicting Tri-Klops in full tactical gear with a red-lensed visor helmet, olive and brown armor, and a long-barreled sniper rifle, set against a purple sky with lightning and the massive Snake Mountain looming behind him. Fetch really brought the intensity on this one.

Tri-Klops and Man-At-Arms MOTU Origins

Both Tri-Klops and Man-At-Arms are carded here on their retail packaging, spotted at a Target in Australia before their official street date. The card art features a fiery red and orange explosion motif that’s consistent across the Masters of the Universe Origins line, with each figure sealed in a clear plastic blister.

Man-At-Arms

I’m looking at a tight shot of the blister where the figure is sealed in a clear plastic shell that’s molded closely around the body and accessories, keeping everything locked in place. The card behind it is filled with a fiery red and orange burst pattern that spreads outward, giving the whole presentation a high energy backdrop while the accessories are slotted into their own formed sections along the sides.

I’m getting a closer look at how this figure is packed with the clear blister hugging the shape of the body and gear, holding everything firmly in place. The figure is centered with a green armored look that includes layered chest plating, a wide belt with a metallic buckle, and a textured skirt piece, while the helmeted head sits snug at the top of the tray. Off to the side, I can what looks like his Sniper Rifle tucked into its own compartment, and that same red burst pattern fills the card behind it, really framing the figure inside the bubble.
