Masters of the Universe Origins Man-E-Faces Action Figure

Product Information

Vagueness Is Coming: At the end of season 3 the defeated Keldor tells Adam and Randor that, having been at the center of reality, he knows a new threat is coming to Eternia. The end of the episode seems to reveal what that threat is; Hordak and the Evil Horde. Thou Shalt Not Kill: Invoked by the Sword of Power. While it can tear through robots, undead, and inanimate objects with ease, it cannot be used to take a life. This limitation is why King Grayskull created the power of Havoc, since the power of Grayskull was proving insufficient winning the war against the Snake Men. Aerith and Bob: Alongside names like Teela, Krass, Randor, Keldor, Kronis and R'Qazz, we also have Adam, Duncan and Evelyn.

Arc Words: "We Have The Power" becomes the team's In the Name of the Moon battlecry whenever they transform together. While Adam solely possesses the Power of Grayskull in most incarnations, the classic phrase is altered to refer to those worthy of sharing said power.

Snake Mountain

Villainous Friendship: Evelyn/Evil-lyn and Kronis/Trap Jaw, while not close, seem to have genuine respect for each other and work well together. As Sorceress, Teela discovers she's capable of this, accidentally teleporting the Masters of the Universe from Snake Mountain to the skies above Eternos.

Domed Hometown: Randor manages to get a dome-shaped forcefield erected over Eternia but it doesn't last long, as when Skeletor reaches it he easily destroys it.Villains Out Shopping: Kronis angrily grumbles that he was going to eat a sandwich before Skeletor removed the brace holding his broken jaw in place. Mer-Man was a pretty standard villain in the original series and not especially more or less powerful than any other. Here, he's capable of taking on the combined forces of the Masters and Dark Masters and winning handily, only being taken out by a giant snake falling on him. The Starscream: All of Keldor/Skeletor's subordinates are this. Although Skeletor is aware of that. The Reveal: In the first episode, when Teela asked if there's a champion amongst the tribe, Adam replies "a champion is about defending those who can't defend themselves", he has no idea how he knows that. In episode 3, it's revealed that Adam heard it from Eldress before he disappeared to the jungle with amnesia. Darker and Edgier: Despite being softer, it has way darker moments, where people are killed by petrification on screen and the villains getting horrifying transformation scenes.

Cringer is the older mentor figure who raised Adam and Krass rather than Adam rescuing Cringer as a kitten. There are a few hints throughout the first two seasons that Krass will eventually fall and become the Fifth Nemesis. Part of the team dynamic is not only that Cringer can transform into Battle Cat by He-Man sharing his power with him, but also the rest of Adam's team/friends — Teela, Krass, and Duncan — likewise transforming via He-Man's power into the respective fellow Masters of the Universe Sorceress, Ram Ma'am, and Man-At-Arms.Kirby Dots: Fittingly enough, these appear when Skeletor is using Kirbinite to reforge his minions weapons. Running Gag: A recurring joke is how Ork-0 is insistent that his name is "Ork- 0", instead of "Ork o", when others talk to him, despite the fact they're pronounced the exact same. The responding party will then respond with "That's what I said.", confused at the minute change. This gets flipped when Ork-0 meets the original Orko in season 3 with the latter insisting it's pronounced Ork- oh and Ork-0 insists that's what he said. Downplayed with Man-E-Faces. He is a king of thieves as said by the Guidebook, but still has some redeeming qualities when being a father figure to Teela. Younger and Hipper: Compared to its co-current revival series, Adam and the Masters are depicted considerably younger in this incarnation.
