It came from the Toy Chest: Hordito Supreme Edition.

 You know what's higher than Hordak? No it's not a Hurricane... but the Big Cheese, the Head Honcho, the Christmas hating Hordito Supreme... Horde Prime!! Now this is a controversial topic. Not everyone likes a being above Hordak.

Evil Lyn better not release this one... wait!
If she doesn't release it, I can't review it!

Filmation's Horde Prime looks hard to do as an Action Figure.

Euro-Prime is kinda weird too!
So, how can we make the unmakable into an Action Figure... We call the Four Horsemen... Luckily Mattel has their number on Speed Dial. And they produced THIS!!


Behold! The Hordito Supreme!!

Some say he looks like a Mecha-Koi... but to me he looks a bit like a Shadow Beast From LoZ: Twilight Princess with the Faceless One's Skirt! and Roboto's arms...with fixed Shoulders! And Trap Jaw knees with Hordak feet! you get the idea... Let's look at the review part for this guy right here!

Swapping the head armor and cape to a Spector buck could work for a full UK Prime.

Seriously, the red bugs me out!!
Feeling Urge to repaint... lack of detail on belt and arms!!

Articulation:
He's got the Standard MOTUC Articulation, although he loses the Head Articulation with the Helmet head that is NOT the UK head... yes he has a second head which is his UK comics look.
4.0
Paint and Sculpt:
Sculptwise this thing is a thing of beauty! The new parts complement the already known parts to make this a more imposing figure... that also has the same subtlety as Hideo Kojima... sorry, no more Peace Walker Jokes... Now Paintwise... The USS Logistics struck here... Mattel had to cut a LOT of paint apps on Horde Prime... that would have broken off the Black and Red paint scheme on him and to make matters slightly worse, mine is missing some red paint from the front of his Skirt!
3.0
Accessories:
OK, he got the shaft here as well, but all is OK, he gets the staff on the next Weapons pack! He currently has:
Second Head, Crossbow, "Pope Hood", Helmet, Cape (cause Capes now Count as an accessory... wait that only applies if he's a Princess of Power character... wait he IS!? Dammit!) Nah! Just kidding he only has the Crossbow (that Spikor can use on his left arm) and the UK Head.
4.0
Overall:
The Hordito Supreme gets a 3.67 Mostly cause of the lack of paint apps on him and the missing Staff. He's pretty cool for a Sub Exclusive June Monthly figure.
I couldn't stand the Red Face on him! Captain Paintbrush, AWAY!!
