The Spirit Of He-Ro

Real Name: Ro

After dying in battle against the forces of evil, He-Ro's spirit returned to the timeless dimension of Trolla. The Overlords of Trolla offered He-Ro a choice- join them as one of the Overlords, or return to Eternia to further assist King Grayskull and his forces but be forever trapped in his spirit form. He-Ro chose the latter, and returned through the dimensional gate to Eternia to once again aid King Grayskull and the forces of good. After the defeat of both the Horde and the Snakemen, He-Ro believed his usefulness was at an end... until another evil arose to threaten the forces of good on Eternia! In order to return to the battlefield, the Spirit of He-Ro once again called upon Eldor, the guardian of the book of living spells. Using an incantation from the book, Eldor bonded He-Ro's spirit to a brave young man named Gray so that He-Ro could once again go forth and combat evil!



Accessories: Magic Staff, Power Sword (both in spirit form)



NOTE- This figure is a custom made by Plastique Realm! The bio was written by me in an effort to incorporate the vintage He-Ro and Gray characters (seen HERE on the unproduced Eldor cardback) back into the line...

He-Ro Heroic Cosmic Warrior

Real Name: Ro

Given the sword of He by the Overlords of the Timeless Dimension on Trolla, Ro was told to “go forth and combat evil." During one such epic battle, he was infected by a techno-organic virus by Horde Supreme and sent through a vortex to the magic planet of Eternia. Once there, he was healed by Eldor in a mystical pool which absorbed his virus. In gratitude, He-Ro swore to help free Eternia from the Snake Men and Horde Invaders. He defended the free people alongside the great King Grayskull, eventually bequeathing his sword to the King upon his noble death.

Variations: He-Ro's staff has a gem inside which is hidden inside the package. The gems come in one of three colors: Green like the vintage prototype-



And the more limited red...



...and purple varieties-



Aside from the different gem colors, He-Ro also had a variation available only at San Diego Comic-con 2009 with a special SDCC logo on his chest:



Early review samples of the He-Ro figure included a sword molded in a smokey gray plastic instead of the blue version released with the production figure. (The one I have pictured here is actually a custom-recreation made by Plastique Realm.)
