SUMMARY:
The Aurimat Thunderpunch He-Man can be identified by its pale skin tones, light yellow hard head, very pale face, red or orange belt, and lower backpack in skin color as opposed to red (like the Mabamex).
Released in the final year of the Aurimat production (1986), the figure is marked © MATTEL. INC. 1984 MEXICO and both the shield and the sword are unmarked.
The Auri TP He-Man has 2 different variants. The common orange belt, and the rarer red belt. Both are marked the same and have the same identifying features, except for the belt color.
Perhaps its most distinguishing feature though, is the figure’s green sword. It's unmarked, except for a batch number, and is semi-rigid. The shield uses the same Mabamex mold, with 3 clips/tabs in the back.
