Art: Prince Izor - A Master of the Universe from Brazil

[MIDOR]

Behind on my dot org threads so I hadn't seen it. Regardless, this is interesting. Thanks for the backstory. The dot org didn't provide one. To busy drooling over it and assuming we already know about it.

My artwork with a little story behind:

Prínce Izor was a unofficial exclusive master of the universe created by the company called “Model Trem” in Brazil in the 1980s, which manufactured the first Motu collection in the country before Mattel licensed it to the official manufacturer. Model Trem’s collection of figures was made up of handcrafted pieces made of lead or resin using casts of Mattel characters and hand painted. The MT masters of the universe were sold as part of a collection called "Aventuras na galáxia” and are currently very rare pieces to obtain complete and in good condition, making Izor a kind of Brazilian “Wonder Bread” Motu.
