Happy MOTUesday! Mattel has sent us some goodies to share with you all ahead of Friday, April 28 aka MOTU Day and the official pre-sale day for their highly anticipated Snake Mountain Playset. It’s priced at $79.99 and will be released in late Fall 2023. It will be available for purchase at all of the mainline vendors, including Mattel’s website and our affiliates Amazon and Entertainment Earth.
Created as an homage to the 1980s playset, this newly designed Masters of the Universe Origins playset is inspired by the Snake Mountain lair in the Dark Hemisphere of Eternia. It has a bigger, more modern design that features a trap door, removable dungeon, Skeletor throne, acid pool, escape tunnel, and more!
For further detail:

- Features a huge snake sitting on top with animation styling and multiple points of articulation and a hinge jaw for play.
- The playset’s stairs and walkways have been widened to accommodate MOTU Origins figures.
- Extra foot pegs have been added for easier placement.
- A detachable bridge is also included to act as a single piece linking both sides of the mountain together when it is open.
