The Toy Habits community does not disappoint! Special thanks to Aaron for giving us a heads up that Vypor is now on the Walmart website. This lines up with intel we received back in March 2024 that Vypor and Reptilax were coming to Walmart. Ir was just yesterday that we discovered that the Turtles of Grayskull Mer-Man was on Walmart but the listing was only available in certain cities so you need to have a magic zip code and store to make it appear. Unfortunately, this is the case for Vypor too as he is a geofenced listing but here are the details to pull it up!

Vypor is now up for preorder on Entertainment Earth and BBTS

Use the zip code 84123 and set your store to the Taylorsville Supercenter! Also, don’t forget that Vypor is also on Amazon too and we’ll update this article if Vypor appears anywhere else!

Once you set your store the Walmart listing for Vypor will magically appear

April 19, 2024: Vypor Amazon Listing Discovered

Special thanks to friend of Toy Habits, Dan Diego for the heads up that MOTU Origins Vypor Amazon Listing has been found! If you recall, Vypor was part of the MOTU Origins AND Cartoon Collection Fall 2024 Figure Lineup, but Vypor was not part of the preorder drops that followed the next day. Well now we have tracked down the Amazon listing, which is great news, because that confirms he is a Fan Channel Exclusive, like Amazon, BBTS & EE! Currently there are no official images, and the item shows out of stock probably because the Amazon listing has not gone live yet, but stay tuned here, and we will update you, when it does! Amazon has also updated Vypor’s product page

April 19, 2024 Update: Vypor Official Images

The official images of Vypor have been uploaded to Amazon and he looks amazing! Looks like they made his armor a deeper gold and he looks fantastic!!! Here are the product details for Vypor and the images show his articulated jow:

• Based on the original design by Axel Gimenez, this character was originally featured in the vintage Snake Men series. Now he appears as the deep-cuts Origins figure fans have been hoping for.
• Vypor is armored in a detailed harness with removable neck piece with 2 real metal chains and removable skirt armor. A Staff can augment battle moves and poses and a themed mini-comic provides story context.

He also comes with real changes and a very cool bone sceptor!

April 14, 2024 Update: Vypor Amazon Listing

Another character we got teased on the Eternia Box artwork was Vypor! That really cool looking red snake man that is reminiscent of the Viper tower of the Eternia playset. We recently covered that Vypor and Reptilax were coming to MOTU Origins line as fan channel exclusives! If you want to read more about it, you can check out our Reptilax & Vypor Coming to the MOTU Origins article. This one is supposed to be a Fan Channel Exclusive, like BBTS & EE! Preorders will be going live on March 27th or sooner, keep your eyes peeled to Toyhabits.com! If you want to access the Amazon link, you can find it HERE or click on the photo of Vypor below.

Here we can see his illustration on the MOTU Origins Eternia box art below.

As designed in the MOTU Classics line, Vypor would reuse parts from Snake Face, Lord Dactus and Prahvus but he would need new armor, a new head and a new neck piece. What does make him a possibility is that his head sculpt is inspired by the Snake Tower from the Eternia playset, which comes out in 2024. Also as Mattel goes deeper into 200x , we could see Lord Dactus (who’s trademark was recently renewed by Mattel) and Prahvus as possible figures they could make out of Vypor., who are are both unique characters to that era of MOTU and strong contenders for figures for the MOTU Origins line.

Here is a custom concept of Vypor, from the MOTU Classics line, created by the talented Orsogranito Granitebear Shop! You can see the nods to Viper Tower with the shape of the Snake Head , the chains, and the manta spy!

Deep Cut Snake Men Teases

Axel Gimenez is recognized for his dynamic art style and his ability to capture the iconic characters and settings of the MOTU universe. His illustrations have brought new life to the adventures of He-Man, Skeletor, and their allies and enemies. In the prolific days of the Masters of the Universe Classics era, Axel had come up with countless concepts for figures that were never produced as actual figures and the MOTU Origins lines is providing a canvas for his work to come alive in plastic. In fact, three out of the 6 figures in his latest image he posted to Instagram are either teased or being produced in the MOTU Origins line. This article is meant to keep a running log of the deep cut teases and official announcements for brand new figures making it into the Masters of the Universe Origins line.

The most recent teases we’ve seen come from Lady Slither’s card art! Below is a full view of the front card back art that features Vypor and Reptilax (along with Strettch Nekk and Fang-Or)

Here are an up close image of the card art that features Vypor, the character on the left under Lady Slither’s staff and Reptilax (as seen in the middle).
