Moss Man is a fictional character from the popular Masters of the Universe franchise.
As his name indicates, he is a man made of moss, whose power is to camouflage into foliage and other green areas, as well as control all plant life. He lives in the Evergreen Forest in harmony among the animals and plants.
Biography[]
Moss Man was introduced into the Masters of the Universe toy line in 1985. Given that the accompanying cartoon series was drawing to a close at the time his toy was released, his role in the cartoon is minimal, and he appears in only two episodes: Here, There, Skeletors Everywhere and The Ancient Mirror of Avathar. The former portrays him as a spy who can secretly observe danger by turning into a plant. The latter shows him using his abilities to rescue others by turning his arms into vines, as well as communicating with plants. He also has a cameo appearance in He-Man and She-Ra: A Christmas Special, where he appears in the background at Prince Adam and Princess Adora's birthday party.
Behind the Scenes[]
- Moss Man's animation model, based on the toy prototype by Mattel, was designed by Gerald Forton and Herbert Hazelton.
