| Good thing I'm NOT a MOC Collector. Wet Packages make Figures not Meent on card. |
In nomine Hordak et Screech et spritus Keldor... I got a Revelation Tri-Klops... I also got other figures, but one of them came with a broken peg... it was Savage He-Man but he was a bonus for getting AIDS patient Orko for under $10. Hopefully, Green Stuff will do its thing and cement the peg to the body. If not, Project Real king Grayskull might become a reality... I have a head, ax and a sword... but that's a different rant for a different day. Today's the topic is Tri-Klops. I won't rant about the Mail man leaving the packages on the rain despite having a roofed area 2 feet 2 the north of where he dropped the packages that is still accassible from the outside.

| Are you threatening me!? I am Popeholio! I need your faith for my bunghole! You can take me but you cannot take my bunghole!! For I have no bunghole!! |
In Kevin Smith's bastardization of He-Man, Tri-Klops becomes the pope of a cult that worships Screech because they're infected by a Technovirus from Hordak. It also has his traditional garb.
Articulation
Tri-Klops has standard Articulation for a Masterverse figure. There isn't much I can say other than his armors hinder it a little bit and the Pope outfit loses a lot of articulation despite the cloth robes. These figures need Butterfly elbows.

| Crom! Grant me Revenge, if you do not listen, then to Hell with you! It was either this or a Hulk Hogan reference, brother! |
Paint and sculpt
He is based on his Revelation look, so his arms have some Cybernetic details. He also suffer from jaundice, but it looks a bit more Trump Orange than He-Man, who looks more jaundiced than sparay tanned.
The pope face had some green smudges, but I was able to clean most of it.
4.5

| 39 years later and we can't still have Tri-Klops grappling He-Man from behind. Now it looks like he's giving He-Man a loving shoulder massage. |
Accessories
This is a "deluxe figure" meaning it's more expensive due to the accessories, but it feels like a ripoff.
Sword
2 extra hands
Extra head
Pope armor
Tunic
These do not warrant the extra $10 of a "deluxe figure" but it's most likely the only Tri-Klops that we'll get.
If there had been either an oversized figure or had a ton of extras like a third head, 4 more hands, or hell, an additional mini figure, one could've argued that it's a deluxe package... but what Tri-Klops has a deluxe figure does not make.
3.0
Overall
Tri-Klops gets a 3.83 as his final score. I blame the articulation and lack of deluxeness. He's not a BAD figure, but he needed to be about 20% cooler. The question I have is whether Mattel will revisit him or not...
