This post breaks down the figure’s highlights, digs into the character’s long-running history in the Masters of the Universe franchise, and looks at how this new Mondo Man‑At‑Arms 200X collectible stacks up alongside Skeletor and Clawful from the same line.

MSRP / Price Range: Around $120 / ~£95
Edition Size / Production Run: Timed Edition (limited window availability)

What You Get with the Mondo Man‑At‑Arms 1/12 Scale Figure
Standing approximately 6.75 inches tall, this Man‑At‑Arms figure captures the 200X style with enhanced sculpting across the armour, portraits and weaponry. It walks the line between display-worthy collectible and something that actually feels fun to pose and accessorise. Mondo packed the box with:
- Man-At-Arms Figure
- Neutral Portrait
- Reptilian Portrait
- Helmetless Portrait
- Left Arm Blaster with Neutral and Active Fire Attachments
- x2 Pairs of Hands
- 200x Mace Club
- Classic Mace Club
- Figure Stand
There’s a great mix of vintage elements and 2002 series flair. The sculpted tech details, mix of textures and varied paintwork give it a solid presence even before accessories come into play.
A Look Back at Man‑At‑Arms in Masters of the Universe
First appearing in the original 1982 MOTU toyline, Man‑At‑Arms has always been more than just a soldier. Known as Duncan, he’s the Royal Guard’s chief weapons master, an inventor and a close advisor to King Randor. He’s also the adoptive father of Teela and one of the few who knows Prince Adam’s secret identity as He‑Man.
In the Filmation cartoon, he was mostly defined by his moustache and mechanical genius. Come the 2002 reboot, that background was deepened with a military edge, casting him more as a battle-hardened strategist. The 200X version also explored his history with the Snake Men and leaned into his role as a mentor to both Adam and Teela. This new figure draws from that blend of tech, toughness and tradition.
Mondo MOTU 200X Man‑At‑Arms Release Date and Price
Pre-orders launched on 27 January 2026 through Mondoshop and, in typical Mondo fashion, the window is limited. The Mondo MOTU Timed Edition model means once the order period closes, that’s it. Priced at around $120, it sits alongside recent releases like the Mondo MOTU 200X Skeletor Timed Edition and the Mondo MOTU 200X Clawful 1/12 scale figure, making this an essential piece if you’re already building out the 1/12 MOTU 200X roster.
Why This Man‑At‑Arms Figure Matters
Some characters are visually striking, others bring emotional weight. Man‑At‑Arms does both, and this release leans into his dual identity as battle commander and father figure. The three head sculpts aren’t just extra bits to toss in a drawer, they offer real storytelling range. Want a grizzled Duncan leading the charge? Done. Prefer something more stylised and Snake Men‑inspired? It’s here too.
Unlike many modern releases that go all in on either nostalgia or reinvention, this one manages to do both. The sculpting detail on the arm cannon and blaster rig stands out, as does the layered paint on the armour. The only thing missing is an optional Teela to yell at him about responsibility.
Where to Buy Mondo Man‑At‑Arms MOTU 200X
If you missed the pre-order window, the best bet is to look at specialist retailers or secondhand outlets that stock Mondo’s collector lines. As with other timed editions, this one won’t be on shelves in a few months, so if you’re asking where to buy Mondo Man‑At‑Arms MOTU 200X collectible, you’ll want to act quickly or prepare to pay a little more on the aftermarket.
Should You Add Him to the Shelf?
For fans of the 200X aesthetic or anyone deep into the 1/12 MOTU line, this is a strong release. It’s not just the accessories or portraits that elevate it, but the respect given to the character’s long legacy. Man‑At‑Arms is a pillar of the franchise and this sculpt reflects that status. It looks great next to Mondo’s 200X Skeletor and adds some grounded heroism to any Eternian display.
