Found this Mattel Fall Catalog containing New figures for the halo license, including a Skeletor repaint!

Mattel-2018 Fall Canadian Catalogue Pages 1 - 50 - Text Version | FlipHTML5

You can find it on page 130 and this is a leaked photo from back in January...enjoy!

Too bad they cheaped out after series one. Molded feet and belt armor.

Nice to see the 12in. Cortana. Now a 6in. w/ decent articulation shouldn't be too hard, right??

The only figure that had a molded on belt was Jerome and the molded boots are much sturdier and solid than the first wave in my opinion.

I agree but it makes armor swapping utterly useless now. Kinda kills the appeal of removeable armor.

Ah I see your point…

Thanks for the heads up. Been trying to track down a higher resolution version of the catalog or Spartan Skeletor. Couldn't find a thing.

Can somebody actually post a picture of the Skeletor figure instead of making me flip through who knows how many pages of an online catalog?

I just want some ODST's. Hopefully I will be able to snag some. Still don't have my hands on an Arbiter...

Seeing that helmet made me think of how cool it would be if they made a Master Chief helmet that was VR. Maybe not full VR, but to where you could play the game seeing Chief's HUD as if it were your own.

Looks like you could swap around some armor pieces on those figures and make a Man At Arms custom as well!

I haven't found a hi-res version anywhere. This seems to be the only image.

That's neat! Hope they continue the trend with other MOTU ones.

Extra bonus if Microsoft works them into the next Halo game as extra armor decos for MP.

I was really excited for Jerome and it took forever to hit retail. I thought, "Well, maybe they're taking time to get the plastic right and the decos down nicely." Boy, was I wrong. They look like cheap crap. I'm totally interested in Skeletor but if he's a similar quality, I'll pass again.

Agreed, can't bring myself to purchase one, really hoping it isn't the same trend with skeletor armor cuz I'd really like to add it to the collection
