A Skeletor trooper costume and sword from Gary Goddard's fantasy adventure Masters of the Universe. Skeletor (Frank Langella) had a power force of armored troopers under his command throughout the film.

This costume consists of black vacuum-formed plastic armor including a helmet; face guard; chest armor with one small right shoulder plate attached; back armor; one large left shoulder plate with a skull motif; one elbow guard; two wrist guards; a codpiece; a rear plate; thigh armor; a black padded, fabric blend jumpsuit; matching black neckpiece; black leather gloves; a black nylon utility belt with various resin attachments, and a pair of black rubber boots with metal studded black fabric blend overlays. In the center of the chestpiece are four small lights wired to a battery pack hidden inside the armor. The sword features a silvertone metal blade and a molded resin hilt painted gray and decorated with various small symbols. The lot is in good overall condition with some wear from production and age, including scuffing to the armor and some paint chipping on the sword. Dimensions (sword): 24" x 9" x 3" (61 cm x 23 cm x 7.75 cm)
