“I became He-man, the most powerful man in the universe!”
Available exclusively through Matty Collector prior to 2020, Masters of the Universe Eternia Minis by Mattel are hitting brick-and-mortar store shelves now! I recently saw one of the cool Castle Grayskull display boxes at a local WalMart and had to snag a few of these awesome little figures.

Each figure comes in their own mini Castle Grayskull case that features two pegs on the top to display your minis. I nabbed He-Man, Skeletor, and Man-At-Arms. These little guys are so fun to look at that I’ll probably get the entire set!

Each figure is a stylized miniature version of our Eternia heroes and villains that we all know and love so well. The figures come with one accessory and feature three points of articulaton (head and both arms). There’s a peg hole on both feet that allows you to display your figures on top of the mini Grayskulls as well.

The Skeletor figure is my favorite so far, but I really like the look of all of the figures.

Based on a little online research, this is only the first set of figures to be released this year. Apparently more figures will be released later this year and will be packaged in a Snake Mountain case! I can’t wait for those figures to be released!

Now, I know what you’re probably thinking about those Grayskull (and eventually Snake Mountain) clamshell cases. These figures are going to be in blind boxes. Well, you are correct, but a quick trip over to he-man.org (and a tip from a good friend) reveals that there’s a very simple method to all of this madness. Simply look on the bottom of the Grayskull clamshell and you’ll see a number followed by a single letter, A through H. Each letter represents which figure is inside of the case. Here’s a breakdown of the current list. Once I get the Snake Mountain list, I’ll list it in another post.
A = He-Man
B = Skeletor
C = Man-At-Arms
D – Trap Jaw
E – Ram Man
F – Jitsu
G – Buzz-Off
H – Horde Zombie He-Man (original post from he-man.org lists this figure as Slime Pit He-Man)

In the image above, you’ll notice that Stinkor and Faker are pictured. I’m assuming that they will be in the second wave of figures released this year. According to a number of sources including the recent Power-Con 2020 event, future waves will feature Slime Pit and Anti-Eternia figures. Vehicles and multi-packs are also coming soon.

Along with the continuing Mega Construx line (which I love) and the newest wave of throwback action figures with modern design and articulation, it’s a great time to be a Masters of the Universe fan!

Let me know in the comments if you are picking up any of these figures or playsets. Do you have a favorite figure? Are you a collector of the classic figures? Let me know!
As always, thanks for reading my post. See you all again real soon!
