Main Sssqueeze

The later years of the original Master of the Universe line brought about the sub-sect of the Snakemen. Although snake based villains weren't new to the line (in the personage of Kobra Kahn,) it wasn't until Mattel pushed out King Hiss and his minions that Eternia became a scaley place to live indeed.

And in true MOTU fashion, all the Snake-horses and all the Snakemen (okay there weren't Snake-horses, but that would have been cool, no?) had to have snake based gimmicks. Which brings us to Sssqueeze:



Sssqueeze was a pretty standard reptile looking guy up close, but pull back to reveal...



Sssqueeze has long arms to wrap around his victims in a death hug of epic proportions!



Obviously based on a Boa Constrictor, Sssqueeze's hands were made so he could hold his arms tight, and his arms are like your typical bendy toy, with a metal wire inside to keep their position.

Yo! Go suck a snake egg, He-man!
