In the many decades of the Masters of the Universe franchise, Skeletor has wielded many weapons against his arch-foe, He-Man. He even had a nearly identical Power Sword to Prince Adam’s. But the evil Lord of Destruction’s Havoc Staff was his signature weapon. And it’s definitely the one we associate most with the character. Now, MOTU fans who wish to look as if they rule Snake Mountain can do so with their own life-size replica Havoc Staff, as seen in the upcoming MOTU film, from the folks at Mattel Creations. They’ve pulled out all the stops for this incredible replica, which you see the first images of below:

And here’s the official description from Mattel Creations for their Masters of the Universe Skeletor Havoc Staff:
Take control of Skeletor’s dark magic with our life-sized version of the Havoc Staff, as wielded in the Masters of the Universe film. The rechargeable staff features an Active Mode where you can trigger sound effects, plus lights and even smoke from the refillable fog fluid reservoir. When you set it on Sentry Mode, infrared sensors below the ram’s eyes will sense any movement within 6 inches (15 cm) and activate the staff’s intimidating features. Use it for role play or put it proudly on display. Nyahh!
In MOTU lore, Skeletor uses the staff to channel dark magic from other dimensions. And sometimes, just as a melee weapon. But if you want to just hang it up as a decoration without any magical summoning, we won’t tell anyone. Skeletor’s Havoc Staff stands 68.25 inches tall (173.36 cm), and the sinister ram’s head/cervical spine at top is 15.44 inches (39.22 cm) wide and 7.92 inches (20.12 cm) front to back. The five-piece staff can be easily disassembled and reassembled, perfect for cosplayers traveling to conventions. It includes a lithium-ion battery and USB-C to USB-A charging cable. Power adapter not included. This will set you back $189.00, and MOTU fans can order it now from the Mattel Creations online store.
