Skeletor’s ferocious feline companion, Panthor, has been a staple in Masters of the Universe lore since the early 1980s. With the upcoming Masters of the Universe Masterverse New Eternia Panthor figure release, fans are in for a treat as this iconic creature gets a modern makeover.

A Glimpse into Panthor’s Legacy
For those new to the MOTU universe, Panthor is Skeletor’s loyal feline companion, often seen by his master’s side in Snake Mountain or carrying him into battle against He-Man and Battle Cat. In the original series, Panthor’s origin wasn’t deeply explored, but later iterations, like the Masters of the Universe Classics toyline, provided more backstory.

According to this lore, during his exile from Eternos Palace, Keldor (who would later become Skeletor) saved a young Dylinx cub from a hunter’s pit in the Corridors of Lithos. The cub remained fiercely loyal to Keldor, who named him Panthor after a tribal story his Gar mother told him as a child. The purple-skinned feline stayed with Keldor even after he was transformed into the Lord of Destruction by Hordak’s magic.
The New Eternia Panthor: First Impressions
From the promotional images, the Masterverse Panthor stands out with its detailed sculpt and imposing presence. The figure boasts a rich purple hue, reminiscent of the original design, but with enhanced textures that highlight its musculature and ferocity. The armor plating adds a layer of menace, making it clear that this isn’t just any feline—it’s a battle-hardened beast ready to charge into the fray.
Articulation and Accessories

One of the standout features of this MOTU Panthor figure is its articulation. The joints appear robust, allowing for dynamic poses that can capture Panthor in mid-pounce or a defensive stance. The saddle is intricately designed, ensuring that Skeletor Panthor can mount his steed securely.

For those keeping up with MOTU releases, this figure fits right in with the recent 2025 Masters of the Universe pre-orders, including some exciting additions to the Masterverse line.
