>>9344083By the time Magus came out the cartoon was already going, but he didn't show up until the second season, which ran in 1994. The line itself was a toy first and then a cartoon quickly afterwords. And cartoon style characters started appearing later on with the exception of Skullmaster, who was redesigned almost immediately, because the version that came with Skull Mountain was just boring, so they made him an edgier Skeletor.
