Video: Masters of the Universe Origins Custom Figures

I wanted to show off some of the customizations I have done with my MOTU Origins figures and show off a couple of Origins versions of Galaxy Warriors/Fighters that I am working on.

Masters of the Universe Origins - Battle in the Clouds - Stop Motion Video

The Battle for Castle Grayskull: The Caverns of Fear

He-Man battles Skeletor in the caverns under Castle Grayskull. Adapted using Masters of the Universe Origins action figures.

Skeletor and the Orb of Prophecy

Lets take a peek in Snake Mountain and check out what Skeletor and his Henchmen are up to today...

It appears that Skeletor has come up with a new plan to conquer Castle Grayskull. A plan so foolproof that he is certain he cannnot fail this time! However, no one else seems as confident...

Time to consult a mystical magical aritifact with the ability to divine the answer to any question asked of it about future events... The mysterious Orb of Prophecy!

Review: Masters of the Universe Origins Mer-Man

Enter Mer-Man, the ocean warlord who lurks in the darkest depths of the sea awaiting Skeletor's orders. The Mer-Man figure in this Origins collection stands 5 1/2-inches tall and has 16 moveable joints, so he's highly poseable for imaginative and action-oriented fun.

Mer-Man was part of the first series of Masters of the Universe action figures released by Mattel in 1981-1982. The character was conceived as Skeletor's most prominent henchman after Beast Man.

Hailing from the Crystal Sea, Mer-Man is the ruler of all beneigth the seas of Eternia and the king of the Mer-Folk of Eternia! While a king in his own right, Mer-Man has allied himself with Skeletor in his own selfish hopes of gaining more power.

Mer-Man's service to Skeletor means he is constantly at odds with He-Man and the heroic champions of Eternia. When engaging the Heroic Warriors, Mer-Man is most frequently teamed up with Beast Man.

Merry Christmas from Eternia!

Merry Christmas from all of us here at Weird Fantastic Toy Adventures!

Custom Castle Grayskull Weapons Rack 2.0

I couldn't leave it alone... I had to remake that second weapson rack! I just wasn't happy with my first attempt which used a miniature wooden easel. This time I used wooden dowels of the correct diameter. It was stained and twine was used to make real lashings to hold it together. Even the weapons are all painted this time! Check it out...
