    Awesome clip. Tri-Klops was one of my favorite as a kid. He had the biggest muscles of all the evil henchmen so naturally as a kid, I thought he was the strongest. With the reused He-Man molds I thought he was the only evil warrior that could come close to matching He-Man’s strength.

      That absolutely would have made sense to me too as a kid!

    I loved Triclops, both the characters and the vintage action figure.
    My favorite version will be the 2002 series. Mainly, he appear a lot more and his designs looks pretty cool.

      @@WeHadThat I do recommend checking it out. It's really good, on par with some of the good reboot or revival cartoons like Thundercats 2011, Duck Tales, etc.

    It's funny mentioning the sword being able to fit in his harness. It reminded me of how excited I was as a kid getting Han Solo in Hoth gear and having his blaster have a holster. Happy days.

    He was one of the figures I used to play with the most hopelessly team him up with trap jaw. I like to sword and that hour would fit on the back of his hilt. I thought that was pretty cool

    This was one I chased with my dad. Couldn't find it anywhere. Once we found it I never played with. Was afraid to damaged it.

    Awesome video as always. Super indept. Loved it. I had him as a kid and I loved this toy. He always was one of my favorite evil warriors. Still need to pick up the vintage and the Club Grayskull Filmation one. And maybe the Classics just cause he is that cool. Sad they didnt include him more in the cartoon. Thanks for making and sharing this😊

    Great video! Thank you! I had this version, the "200X Silver Tights" repaint, the Classics version, and the Club Grayskull version.
    One of my favourite character designs. I think the only way to make him better would be to find a way to give the Classics figure the power punch of the original and the light-piped eyes of the 200X version.

      They really did do a great job with him in the 200x line. I still need him for my Classics collection.

    I feel like Faker and Evil Lyn came after Trap Jaw and Tri Klops. At least in my area I think it was Man E Faces and Ram Man, then Tri Klops and Trap Jaw then Faker and Evil Lyn and then Mekanek.

    My Tri-Klops head broke so I put He-Man's head on his body since every original He-Man I had seemed to break. If I remember correctly Tri-Klops was originally a hero hence why he's wearing the human feet.

    Tri-Klops also appeared in the audio book The Power of Point Dread & Danger at Castle Greyskull. This came with Point Dread. ua-cam.com/video/qT2VwSfi6xE/v-deo.html around the 11:40 mark
