Battle Lion, an ancestor of Cringer and King Grayskull’s loyal companion from the 200X series makes his debut for the first-time as an action figure in Mattel’s Masters of the Universe Classics line.
Availability: May 2014
Sculpt & Paint:
Battle Lion’s head sculpt features a very large mane with a lot of detail sculpted on. His face is sculpted in a snarling position, his teeth rub against each other from top to bottom, and the mouth is supposed to pivot at the jaw, but because the teeth are rubbing it leaves you not wanting to move it that much. The armor is 200X inspired and can also be used on Battle Cat to give him a 200X update.
King Grayskull can fit onto the saddle (the cape can also fit while on Battle Lion) and there is a gap where King Grayskull’s skirt fits into the saddle to help steady him.
The body is reused from Battle Cat and Panthor.
Articulation:
Standard for MOTUC.
Accessories:
Includes Removable Armor.
Bio:
Real Name: Granger
During the Great Wars against King Hssss™ and the Invasion Forces of Hordak®, King Grayskull® rode into battle on top of his fierce mount Granger, a giant lygor prince from the Green Tiger Tribe. Gifted as a cub to a young Grayskull™ for saving their home from an attack by renegade Gar pirates, Granger grew up with his master, loyally protecting Grayskull™ in times of peace and war. When evil threatens Eternia®, Granger is enhanced by the Power of the Universe channeled through the Sword of He. As Battle Lion™ he wears enchanted armor that protects him against magical attacks. Battle Lion™ is the heroic steed of King Grayskull®, loyally carrying his master into combat.
Overall:
Battle Lion is an excellent figure and we are very happy to see beasts return to Classics. This was missed last year.
Highly Recommended.
