Saturday Showcase: Tri-Klops

Tri-Klops Card Back from MOTU series

I was very excited to see the Funko announcements a few weeks ago when I saw my favorite villain in the line-up for the latest Masters of the Universe line.
As you can tell from the title, that villain is the one and only Tri-Klops. When I was a child, my must have He-Man villains were Beast Man, Trap Jaw, and Tri-Klops. Tri-Klops was always my favorite out of the 3, so I decided I would do a post about how awesome this character is. So, let's begin.

Alliance of Evil

BIO:

Tri-Klops made his debut in the story, "The Terror of Tri-Klops!", which introduces him as a near-match for He-Man in terms of strength, summoned by Skeletor when he decides he needs a new warrior to take on He-Man. He is a skilled hunter, swordsman, and spy. He is very resourceful as a spy given that his helmet enables him to see all around him and thus be able to spot all attacks from behind. Tri-Klops is also suggested to be a very cunning and formidable warrior.

In the animated cartoons, Tri-Klops is an inter-dimensional bounty hunter and swordsman who can see in any direction. His eyes, which are on a rotating visor around his head, have different abilities in different versions; one common ability is the power to see through solid objects. He is also able to see in the dark and over long distances with his Night-vision and Dista-vision eyes. Tri-Klops wears the "Gammavision" ever since he was blinded in an accident. In both the 1983 and 2002 cartoons, his eyes can also shoot energy bolts, although this is not commonly used in other material. A well-known classic villain of the MOTU line, Tri-Klops was one of Skeletor's chief henchmen, stoic and obedient, and was frequently featured in the Filmation cartoon.
