Synopsis

When the evil Skeletor finds a mysterious power called the Cosmic Key, he becomes nearly invincible, seizing Castle Grayskull and the surrounding city. The Sorceress is now Skeletor's prisoner and he begins to drain her life-force as he waits for the moon of Eternia to align with the Great Eye of the Universe which will bestow god-like power upon him. However, courageous warrior He-Man locates the locksmith inventor Gwildor, who created the Key and has another version of it. During a battle, one of the Keys is transported to Earth, where it is found by teenagers Julie and Kevin. Now, both He-Man and Skeletor's forces arrive on Earth searching for the potent weapon.

Memorable quotes from Masters of the Universe

"At the center of the universe, at the border between the light and the dark stands Castle Grayskull. For countless ages, the Sorceress of Grayskull has kept this universe in harmony, but the armies of darkness do not rest, and the capture of Grayskull is ever most in their minds. For with those that control Grayskull come the Power. The power to be supreme, the power to be almighty, the power to be... Masters of the Universe."
"People of Eternia, the war is over. My forces are victorious. The Sorceress of Grayskull is my prisoner, and her powers are now joined with mine! Let this be my first decree. Those who do not pledge themselves to me, shall be destroyed! The new age begins."
"Everything comes to he who waits... and I have waited so very long for this moment."
"He-Man lives and possesses that key. I must possess all, or I possess nothing."
"Stay where you are, He-Man! One more move and your friends will not live to see another day! I give you a choice. Return with me to Eternia as my slave and save their despicable lives, or perish with them on this primitive and tasteless planet. Surrender your sword!"
"Not the way to treat you beloved ruler. Throw down your weapons or you die!"
"Where are they? Where are your friends now? Tell me about the loneliness of good, He-Man. Is it equal to the loneliness of evil?"
"Evil-Lyn: Outnumbered? Outclassed is more like it."
