The Masters of the Universe Origins Night Stalker Vehicle is a Mattel Creations exclusive, presenting a revamped version of the classic evil robotic steed. This latest release is designed to be more detailed and articulated, making it a perfect addition for collectors and fans alike. Night Stalker features a sleek black and gold color scheme, with updated armor and weaponry, staying true to its vintage roots while embracing modern toy-making techniques.
Chomping at the bit for Masters of the Universe Origins Night Stalker
Ah, Night Stalker! A name that strikes fear into the hearts of Eternia’s heroes and brings a gleam to the eyes of any MOTU enthusiast. Although I haven’t had the chance to get my hands on this bad boy yet (it’s still on preorder), the photos and descriptions have me chomping at the bit.
From what I can see in the photos, the new Night Stalker is everything we loved about the original, but with a level of detail that’s simply drool-worthy. The black and gold color scheme is as striking as ever, and the articulation looks like it will make posing this beast an absolute joy. I can already imagine the endless display possibilities, from standing guard over Skeletor to charging into battle against He-Man and his allies.
The product description promises updated armor and weaponry, which look fantastic in the photos. The sleek lines and intricate details make this figure a standout piece in the Masters of the Universe Origins line. It’s clear that a lot of care and attention went into recreating Night Stalker with modern enhancements while maintaining the nostalgic feel of the original.
Villainous twist
Now, here’s a quirky tidbit: unlike Stridor, who always seems to get consistent treatment, Night Stalker’s portrayal has been all over the place. While he never showed up in the original minicomics, he did make appearances in the UK comics by London Editions. Sometimes he’s Jitsu’s evil robotic steed, and other times he’s depicted as a reincarnated Stridor, albeit with a villainous twist. And get this – in some versions, he’s not even robotic but a regular horse with the Night Stalker color scheme. Talk about an identity crisis!
But wait, there’s more! Night Stalker was supposed to appear in the Filmation He-Man series. According to the model packs, he was called “Knightmare” (yes, with a ‘K’ – extra spooky). It’s a shame he never made it to the screen, but hey, that just makes owning the figure feel all the more special, doesn’t it?
If you’re a fan of the Masters of the Universe Origins line, then this figure is a must-have. It’s a perfect companion piece to Extendar and the newly released Rokkon. Trust me, your collection will thank you.
