Brand New Mattel Creations UK Website reveals Pics & Details for the Masters of the Universe: Origins RIO BLAST Figure coming January 21st

The United Kingdom has a new Mattel Creations website!

Thanks to the always awesome community member @motuoriginscork, we learned that back on January 9th, Mattel launched a brand new uk.creations.mattel.com website with the announcement that they were stocking some merchandise in the UK!

While this is great news for UK fans (and hopefully makes ordering MOTU items for them easier across the board), it doesn’t end there. The new UK Mattel Creations website has also given us an early look at the upcoming Masters of the Universe: Origins Rio Blast figure! Check it out:

Masters of the Universe Origins Rio Blast Action Figure

Rio Blast made his first appearance as He-Man’s quick-draw deputy in the Mattel mini comic, “The Fastest Draw in the Universe.” A member of the Heroic Warriors, this cyborg cowboy destroys his opponents with a pack of blasters on his back and an arsenal of laser guns concealed in his chest, legs, and arms. Making his first-ever appearance in the Origins line, Rio Blast is armed and ready to fire up your display.

• Over five inches tall, with 16 points of articulation 
• Includes laser guns in his thighs, chest and hands

FULLY LOADED

Rio Blast joins the Origins line for the first time, and he’s strapped for the occasion with laser guns concealed in his legs and chest.

BEHIND THE DESIGN

Rio Blast is a cowboy-themed character, blending elements of the Wild West with futuristic technology. As of now, he’s only been featured in comic books.

PACKING A PACK

He carries a pack of blasters on his back, which he pulls over his head during battle to become a laser-blasting, one-man army.
