Presented is one of rarest and most desirable carded figures in the entire Masters of the Universe line. Known as “Man-E-Weapons” to astute MOTU collectors, this Man-E-Faces variant is sure to turn heads. Unlike the general release, this version sports the beautiful “Extra Weapons” yellow burst on the front of the card and is packed with five additional maroon colored weapons. The yellow “New!” logo is displayed in the upper corner creating a beautiful color match aesthetic along with the yellow extra weapons burst and yellow comic. The back of the card differs from the standard version as well. The human to robot to monster illustration is featured on the top rather than along the side. Additionally, the card is marked 1982 instead of 1982/1983 and does not contain the “G#” at the bottom.

Absolutely one of the toughest MOTU MOCs to find with a clear bubble, this one presents with astonishing clarity. It’s the only AFA graded example with clear bubble to hit the market in 5 years. A most extraordinary and simply magnificent example of “Man-E-Weapons”, one of the finest in existence, and one that will likely find a permanent home in a most advanced world-class MOTU collection. Graded April 2021. Made in Taiwan. Encapsulated by AFA (80, 80-85-85), #11224205
