“Do you even lift, He-Man?” We can just imagine Gym Bro Skeletor taunting the otherwise unassuming Adam Glenn in the weight room, as the Evil Lord of Destruction is ready to crush his enemies in an unexpected new way. This figure, based on a look straight from a mind-meld attack sequence in the 2026 Masters of the Universe movie, is highly articulated to let you recreate your favorite musclebound poses, a few of which you’ll see on parts of the window-box packaging.
