Every Masters Of The Universe Character - Explored In Detail - Dive Into The Insane World Of He-Man!

The kids from the 80s are lucky to have way too many things to remember fondly. While the choices often vary about the favorites, there is one thing they will all agree upon - their love for He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. The original cartoon series followed the launch of a toyline, but soon the stories were far more intriguing than the usual toy-selling gimmicks. The character of He-Man became a much loved superhero, and there were several comebacks over the years. There was a film featuring Dolph Lundgren as He-Man, and a re-booted cartoon series that was quite appreciated. Other projects followed and the franchise’s popularity continued mainly because of some fascinating characters.
From the righteous and heroic He-Man to the evil Skeletor and Evil-Lyn, the show has way too many colorful characters that make things entertaining. In this video, we will take you on a nostalgic ride as we conduct a fun throwback of all these memorable characters.

Man I am glad that I grew up in the 80s and I got to see ultimate cartoons like He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and ThunderCats but I freaking love the Masters of the Universe I still have a lot of the old action figures from that time what a great time it was to be a kid in the 80s.

[@jonathan2755]

The best part of the 80s era he-man was the educational and push to make kids better ppl. There was always an inspirational segment at the end to inspire kids to be good ppl. That was a nice touch that you appreciate probably more now than then.

[@gspendlove]

I have a theory about that. Since the show featured battles and fighting, and since we had a lot of moral guardians convinced that children's entertainment was corrupting children, they added those lesson segments at the end to placate parents and critics. Same thing with GI Joe.

[@allluckyseven]

@@gspendlove I believe they explain the reasoning behind that in a documentary called The Magic of Filmation, that's available on KZbin.

[@lotgc]

Yeah, I really do appreciate the little morals at the end of each episode. Even though they're kinda cheesy, sometimes, especially when you're older, you need to hear them again.

[@MiyuSawai]

Prince Adam was given the Sword of POWER, Princess Adora was given the Sword of PROTECTION. Also, In two TV versions of "He-Man and the Masters of the Universe", 3 heroic Warriors know that Prince Adam is He-Man and Cringer is Battlecat, they are as follows: The Sorceress, Man-At-Arms, and Orko.

HE-MAN was the first toy line I was really obsessed with (followed by every other toy line of the 80s).

Not to mention the iconic cartoon…good times.

Ah yes... Childhood battles with He-man and the Thundercats teamed up with the Autobot and GIJoe against Cobra, The Deceptions and the forces of Mum-Ra. Imagine that crossover as a cartoon.

[@vladyvhv9579]

Robot Chicken did this duing one of the Nerd character's dream sequences. With some actually watchable comic results. Also, in the comics and some runs of the toy francheses, there is crossover between Transformers, Gi Joe, MASK, and a few others. And stuff like the Marvel Universe becoming a franchise in of of itself. So, if one company were to hold the rights to all franchises (or someone were to negotiate equatable use of them from whatever entities hold the rights now), and if we can agree to never let Michael Bay near any part of the project, it could become the next MCU.

the new netflix series is an abomination

[@chukyuniqul]

Sorry but the filmation series looks really unappealing. The new adventures may be goofy as hell but its style aged far better (note both of them are older than me). While I like the '02 series a lot due to insane nostalgia, I would be down to watch the new adventures cuz they are actually, yknow, watchable. Meanwhile the og show looks really bad and feels made for children. Not in the sense of the theming, at least the '02 series is just as childish, but because of the poor quality and talking animal. Just feels like I'm watching the old scooby doo. And I didn't like the old scooby doo all that much. The quality is too poor. Also I'd suggest anyone interested in some entertainment watch the cgi netflix series. It is pretty passable and reasonably entertaining. Granted, ram man (who got genderbent but at least it no longer feels as goody) is quite literally one of the most annoying characters I've seen in the franchise, but it feels quite faithful to the OG's satam cartoon vibes, and the fact transformation sequences and special attack cutscenes are respected shows there is a lot of love. Also the evil masters have transformations and they are based. If nothing else, give those a look online. It got too much bad press after revelations took a shit on the original series, and while not good, it does work as a hit of that nostalgia if you're not too set into hating everything made for today's kids. Or froth at the mouth whenever diversity is brought up. It isn't the he-man y'all or I grew up with, but that doesn't mean it's a bad he-man.

I worked on He-Man Masters of the Universe hit TV Animation Series for a solid 3 years for Filmation Studios in the late 80s. A great experience for me as one of the Key Animators for this fantastic TV series. A time in my animation career I will never forget. Barry Anderson kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3Wpp2Cvj7Jmebc It was common for my Filmation Director to cast certain characters to key Animators that showed much drawing strength for any particular character design. For example, some animators were good with animals and others with female characters, and then others with male characters, and so on. The Directors at Filmation assigned the main character He-Man, Orko, Cringer, and Battle Cat in that order including much of the Stock Footage that we would call Same As that you can see playing in every episode."

That was a good effort, team. A few errors here or there and sometimes a little oversimplified, but you covered a LOT of ground, so pretty impressive!

I'd like to see He-Man and She-Ra 's parents meet at the beginning of the first film, something like Man Of Steel but their mother crashes on Eternia meeting King Randor, them having Adam& Adora as infants with a battle following Skeletor with skin on his face at first for most of the movie till his climatic fight with He-Man. Hordak would have a cameo or minor appearance only to kidnap infant Adora to use as Evil and return in her own Spin off franchise and eventful crossover film with He-Man to be reunited with family but have to go back. Of-course I wouldn't cram all the other character villains and allies into one film but spread them out best as possible within a trilogy/ more films.

Cringer...love this character..he was the frighten big cat..but in a few of the episodes Cringer without being Battle Cat overcomes his fears to save He-Man / Prince Adam or his friends...showing that the swords power only amplified his deeply held courage to protect those he loves..so in essense Cringer is Courage.."Courage is not the absence of fear, but to do what is right in the face of it."

You forgot to cover Skeletor's Sword of Power... well, it only existed in the action figures. Among us kids, there was a lot of heated debate about it and what it does. Skeletor's sword and He-Man's sword are designed as half-swords that can "lock their backs together" to create one sword. Among our group, we came to the "genius obvious brilliant conclusion" that Skeletor's sword is what was leftover when He-Man's sword was having its non-hero properties "filtered out" and was useless without He-Man's sword. Skeletor's sword, one linked with He-Man's, will let Skeletor have He-Man's powers without the heroic requirements. If you were a preteen in the 80s who remember Skeletor's sword, I'm sure you have lots of ideas spawned from those pre-teen memories. I mean, the coloring book I had at the time was the only media ever to even *SHOW* Skeletor's sword. When the cartoon became popular, Skeletor only came with his staff, the sword was no longer in the package. I think Faker had it for a bit but I'm not sure. In action hero toy form, he was supposed to be He-Man's equal in physical capability.

You could literally make a series of this concept, and actually get to everything. Some more research could've been done as well, Alan Oppenheimer was the voice of Duncan in the original '80s Masters of the Universe animated series. Except for the mini comics, Orko was ALWAYS a character that knew He-man's secret. Don't get me wrong, this was an amazing video, a lot of fun, great clips to illustrate the characters.

It's funny I remember about a decade back I found some episodes of the original He-man show in the 5 dollar DVD bin at Walmart. I hadn't seen the show since I was a kid so I was really excited to check it out and it was then I realized how dumb the show was and how it really was just an advertisement for buying the toys lol. Each episode was a thinly strung together plot with a lot of recycled animations, the only things that carried the show were the music and the voice acting. Oh well some things are best left in the past and He-man is one of them lol.

Kevin Smith has brought shame on Eternia

[@GraySkull289]

Yep. He doesn't even like He-Man. He said it in a tweet and in an episode of Comic book men. He just wanted the money for more weed.

@@GraySkull289 that is not only a lie. It is misinformation and slander.

[@GraySkull289]

@@lunakingsley.7247 no lies found. He wasn't a fan. Simple. Also it wouldn't be slander because I didn't say it. Did you learn nothing from J Jonah Jameson. For some reason youtube doesnt like links so you'll have to Google it yourself. 13th January 2010 he tweeted he wasn't a fan. In an episode of comic book men he said he had no love for he man. He isn't the superfan he claims to be. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go get on with my life. Thank you.

Great informative video. Not sure why they kept showing the super7 reaction figures while describing the original toys? Also you missed quite a few easy ones like leech, grizzlor and many more.

where is cringer? have i missed the green tiggy? I'm sure i missed him, except at the end as a wrap up. poor Cringer! he was brave when he needed to be. love that tiggy.

Learning of the origin of Kobra Kahn got me thinking if Ed Boon and John Tobias based Reptile off of him. Reptile's history and Kahn's are very similar to each other the difference is Reptile isn't of royal blood of his race, but he does have the ambitions to restore his race former glory. Give Ram-man a magical gem with an incantation and you'll have yourself a great value Juggernaut lol.

[@morkarchakai109]

i allways did wonder if the German radioplay got the same storyline then the english ones. Because in 3 of them the origin of Skeletor, Trap-Jaw and Beastman were explained. At the Story "Todestor" (Deathgate) Man at Arm dissapeared in the area of the Sands of time and He-Man searched with Orko his best friend, they go through the gate that suddendly appeard after a timestorm in the dessert. There they met the Giants that came to Eternia a long time ago and changed a habbitable place on Eternia into the Destert that will be called the Sands of time, they where on Eternia after they pollute theyr own home planet so nothing would be able to live there so they wantet to let theyr planet rest for a few hundert years to regenerate. After they did land on Eternia they took all bad/dark emoptions , knowledge etc. of theyr folk and created Skeletor as a vessel for all that evil stuff. After they finished it they threw Skeletor in a time Portal so they will never met him again. Well we all know in which time he did land. The Story of Trap-Jaw i sadly dont remember the name of the Story ,was he formerly was a young Smith appretince with the name Jaw that was wandering around when he did hear the yell for help from a kid boy, he ran to the source of the yelling and did see the boy chained on a rock. The Boy explained that he was bound on the rock by skelektor who wanted to ran him over with a tank for fun, Jaw tried to free the boy but the kid was so frightened and moved so much that Jaw had a hard time to get him free. In the last second Jaw managed to free the boy but it was too late for him , he was only able do dodge the tankfast enough that he only lost his Jaw and his Arm. Skeletor get out of the Tank and did see the seriously woundet Jaw on the ground and remembered him as the smith apprentice, he sayd to him that he should not fear he will make him a new Jaw of Steel and a prosthetic weapon arm also he will erase his memorys and use him as his Bodyguard. Beastmans Origin story was in "Nach über Castle Greyskull" (i guess : Castle Greyskull in the Dark , would be the most propper translation , not sure) Beastman was a former scientist , the most known in his folk. He was forced to work for Skeletor , he didnt want to but it seems he was kinda blackmailed into Skeletors service , they dont really explained this here. Skeletor found an old Magical Artefact with an blueprint of a Powerful weapon with that he wanted to gain the power over Greyskull but Beastman recognized the danger of that weapon and if Skeletor would build and active it no one on Eternia would survive this. Well we all know Skeletor dont bother those things , so Beastman threw this artefact into a Vulcan becasue that artifact was indestructible but this way it was out of reach from Skeletor and he would not be able to build that weapon. Skeletor was in rage and tortured Beastman with a very painful poison but he refused to tell Skeletor where this artifact was hidden, so the poison slowly destroyed his mind and Beastman became dumb and a loyal Servant of Skeletor. I appologize for my bad English.

Every character.... Grizzlor, Leech, Sy-klone, Stonedar, Rokkon, Clamp Champ, Jitzu, Ninjor, Blast Attack, Rio Blast, Snake Face to name a handful you missed. Good work on who you did include but the title says every character. I'm surprised you included Andra over any of these other characters as they are more well known.

Great video 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 big he man fan here. No Jitsu though. Do samething with 80s Transformers characters 🤔🤔

[@ladykoiwolfe]

It was a pleasure to hear a woman talking about He-Man. As a girl I enjoyed He-Man, but felt like a girl alone in a sea of boys. I'm really glad they kept Tela and Evil-lyn as strong intelligent women. I always felt they were better and more fun to watch than She-Ra. She-Ra always felt like they were trying too hard to aim it at girls.

[@tuckerzenski7828]

I had every single character and every vehicle and every castle from He-Man and The Evil Hoard. Not She-Ra, but absolutely everything else. I think my parents just donated them from the attic when I moved out 28 years ago. I wish I still had them. This story could be comparable to Star Wars, which I also had everything, LOTR, and Dune. I guess kids want video versions now instead of the action figures. So I'm investing in Mattel. I bet when I make 1000 bucks, I can buy back my toys.

Orko is in the list of who knows He-Mans true identity. She-Ra's sword is called the "Sword of Protection" not the "Sword of Power"

[@hegga_nm]

Great video! Some small mistakes here and there but nothing worth mentioning. My only issue is with the name, as you don't have "every MOTU character" in here (Not even close! :D), so you should probably add "part 1" in the name and consider doing the part 2 to really cover every character. :D You somehow managed to skip one of the most beloved MOTU characters, and one we can even see in the 80's cartoon intro - Cringer/Battle Cat, yet you added Kuduk Ungol on the list?! This only makes sense if you consider Battle Cat to be a vehicle and not a character. :D Other than Cat, you skipped Panthor, Shadow Weaver, Grizzlor, Leech, bunch of snake men, Snout Spout... and those are just some of the most important, without going into characters like Dree Elle, Montork, Yukkers... Hope we get the part 2 in the future!! :)

[@kratoscraken5614]

Fun Fact: HE-MAN and Thundercats are actually cannon (same time period). They were actually going to make a mini series explaining that, but obviously it never fell through. Sigh......o well lol 💪👍💪

[@ericfisher1360]

I seem to recall Skeletor had the second half of He-Mans sword in the mythos on some level. I think it had something to do with controlling Castle Greyskull. When I was a kid, in the 80's the little swords that came with He-Man and Skeletor were split down the side and could snap together.
