King Randor is a brave warrior king from the popular 1980s Masters of the Universe stories. He is the father of He-Man (Prince Adam) and She-Ra (Princess Adora). King Randor rules the land of Eternia alongside his wife, Queen Marlena. In some early stories, his name was King Miro. Later, King Miro became the name of King Randor's father in the Filmation cartoon series.
King Randor Toys
Even though King Randor was an important character, a toy figure of him was not released until the very last group of Masters of the Universe toys. Because fewer of these last toys were made, the King Randor figure is quite rare. Many collectors still look for it today.
The Masters of the Universe toy line was updated in 2002. However, a new King Randor action figure was never made for this line. Instead, a company called NECA created a statue of him. This statue was the size of an action figure but did not have movable parts.
King Randor's wife, Queen Marlena, also did not have an action figure in the original or 2002 toy lines. She finally got a figure in 2011 as part of the Masters of the Universe Classics line. This special figure came with extra parts. You could change her to look like her astronaut self, "Captain Glenn."
In December 2009, a King Randor figure was released for the Masters of the Universe Classics line. This figure looked like the original 1980s toy. Then, in November 2012, a second King Randor figure was released in the same line. This one was called "Eternos Palace" and looked like King Randor from the Filmation cartoon.
