POP 2 - This is one of two AFA 80 red label  examples found in AFA’s population report, none are graded higher. There are a total of only 2 AFA graded red label examples inclusive of all grades.

 

Presented is one of rarest, and what most MOTU collectors consider to be the most desirable collectible in the entire Masters of the Universe toyline: the Battle for Eternia giftset. There is a grand total of TWO factory sealed BFE’s in the AFA population report. The other, an AFA 80y, changed hands privately in 2021. LCG Auctions has confirmed it sold for $36,000 at the time. The Battle for Eternia depicts a scene of a “struggle universal power”. It features Battle Armor Skeletor, Panthor, and Man-E-Faces. Our MISB example is a stunner. No fading and only minor imperfection across this large piece. The reverse is white (no yellowing) and is free of the flap crease that plagues the majority of MOTU giftsets. Each end is firmly factory tape sealed. The display window looks great, especially the front panel. It must be noted that even though this is the only example in existence graded clear and without a Y designation, there is a light tint to the window (photo provided). Figures are securely tied at the waist and Panthor is tied at the feet. A most extraordinary and simply magnificent piece of MOTU history, perhaps the finest in existence. Encapsulated by AFA (80, 75-80-85), #10748606

 

Estimate: $35,000 - $65,000
