Photos have popped up online for the Masters of the Universe Masterverse – Faker 7″ Scale Figure from Mattel. The figure is part of the Masters of the Universe: Revelation assortment, based on the upcoming Kevin Smith Netflix series. The figure is an all-new take on Faker, forgoing the blue skin for a more Terminator-esque design. Faker is a Deluxe Figure and has three interchangeable portraits, two sets of hands, swap out armor pieces, a sword, and a shield.
The photos come courtesy of @motu_dad on Instagram. Faker is priced at $29.99. A release date isn’t mentioned. The listing is live via Walmart.com as well, but is not yet available to pre-order. Check out the new photos after the jump.
Masters of the Universe: Revelation - Faker Figure Photos
Okay, this looks great. So now I have to deal with my Walmart aversion. Is this line exclusive to Walmart for just the first month like NECA? Or is there something else going on here? I swear I should've come across this information by now, but apparently it escaped me...
It's a very nice figure. But, I'm not a fan of the skin tone color change. At all. To make it worse the orange armor looks really bad against the flesh tone.
I wonder if the He-Man transformation we see in the trailer is Faker? He does have blue skin during the transformation.
Kinda weird there's no Teela figure previewed yet, considering she's rumored to have a large role in the new series.
Not bad but the arm bracer and bracelet are clunky af. Just sculpt them on the arms, Mattel.

Teela is listed for wave two along with Beast man, Man-At-Arms, and Spikor.
I think this looks pretty good, don't mind the change from blue skin.
Man these figures suck. Look how awesome the artwork for Faker is on the back of the box, and then look out how lame the figure is in comparison. If these figures looked anything like the source material they would be amazing. Instead they look like badly proportioned Ken and Barbie dolls for kindergarteners.
Aside from head sizes which are what they are - that clean He-Man head is less smiley than the regular one, and should be able to swap in.
MOTU is becomming generic like everything else.
Looks that way to me but you could always repaint them though.
They should given extra undamaged arms and a swappable upper body. Ill wait for a blue skinned faker. This just doesnt look that good.
Lookit that unnecessarily wide box!
Badass!
Just wish they were willing to go Terminator-esque skull face. Though surprised with the red lining on the skin. Makes me wonder, will this show depict blood?
but yeah my beef is with the design. they took one of the most striking, original character designs and made him generic and familiar?
NOPE! No blue skin, hard pass.
