	'''Masters of the Universe''' refers to three things. Firstly, it refers to a universe created by action figure company Mattel to cover two related toylines; ''He-Man'' and ''She-Ra'', both of which were popularized by [[/co/\|series of comics and cartoons]]. Secondly, it refers to the lesser heroes who assist He-Man in his battle against his archnemesis, Skeletor. Finally, it refers to an upcoming tabletop RPG set in said universe, officially presented in the 2020 Power-Con.		'''Masters of the Universe''' refers to three things.

	The MotU-verse is classic 80s [[Sword & Sorcery]], revolving around super-powered magical [[barbarian]]s armed with blatantly anachronistic super-tech seeking to defend their respective worlds, Eternia and Etheria, from different would-be world conquerors. They are generally regarded as stupid yet awesome by old-school fans.

A lot of the vehicles and concepts were just a room full of toy designers thinking up goofy ideas they thought were cool and seeing what stuck.

	Of note is the 2002 reboot, which manages to be a cartoon reboot done right. The storytelling is a bit more serious than the super goofy original, several toy-only characters promoted to speaking roles, and a few small tweaks are made to improve the overall product (He-Man is no longer just Adam in less clothing, leaving a question how nobody can tell they’re the same person, but a much buffer guy with slightly different hair), but it’s still recognizable as a successor and clearly done by people who gave a damn about the franchise. Naturally, it only lasted two seasons.		Of note is the 2002 reboot, which manages to be a cartoon reboot done right.

	Due to licensing shenanigans, there were two Masters of the Universe board games released around the same time: [[CoolMiniOrNot]]'s ''Clash for Eternia'' for the North American market (crowdfunded on Kickstarter), and [[Archon Studios]]'s ''Fields of Eternia'' for the EU market (crowdfunded on Gamefound). ''Fields'' is more card- and narrative-based than ''Clash'', which is more dice-based.

			=Trivia=
			*One of the original He-Man toys was called Stinkor, a skunk dude who's power was (surprise surprise) being really malodorous. To achieve this, they had added Patchouli oil to the plastics before moulding. This stunk up the factory so bad that it basically made the factory unbearable to work in.

	Another remake, except in cgi, that takes a more sci-fi edge. And while there is a lot of difference to the original it is, ironically, more faithful to ~~their~~ original. With great characters and plot.		Another remake, except in cgi, that takes a more sci-fi edge. And while there is a lot of difference to the original, it is ironically more faithful to the original.

	2021 series advertising itself as a continuation of either the original '83 He-Man or the '02 He-Man. Fans were initially cautiously optimistic when they saw it was going to be done in gloriously well-defined animation all the 2002 He-Man instead of in the CalArts Style like She-Ra or [[Thundercats]] Roar. But alarm bells started ringing when character design was presented, including Teela looking ''literally'' like a guy if you remove the makeup. The alarmists sadly turned out to be right when the show aired and it immediately turned into an [[SJW]] dumpsterfire, with He-Man getting killed off in the first episode, the iconic Masters of the Universe team being disbanded and instead being replaced by Teela, Evil-Lyn and Andra (a black engineer woman ported over from the old Marvel He-Man comics), with Beast-Man and Orko as sidekicks, and Teela turning into a self-centered unlikable bitch.		2021 series advertising itself as a continuation of either the original '83 He-Man or the '02 He-Man.

	Fans are split... on whether this series is ''as'' bad as what happened to [[Star Wars]] and [[Star Trek]], or if it's ''worse''. Though He-Man does return to being main character mid-season and Skeletor and Evil-Lyn becoming He-Skeletor and He-Evil-Lyn and Beast-Man becoming Battle Beast-Man.
