Hordak's space suit.
One of the last of the He-Man and She-Ra crossover episodes "Shera Makes A Promise" features a brief but very memorable appearance from an incredibly dangerous-looking Hordak. In an effort to destroy He-Man and She-Ra Hordak dons an impressive suit of armor, filled to the brim with weapons! As you can see the artists put a great deal of work into the design. Which only makes it more of a shame when you consider that Hordak's attack on the heroes last about two seconds; then he decides to flee! This armor always looked so impressive that I am sure a writer could have written an entire episode around it...

Looks like a Monstroid design! Funny how Hordak can transform himself into so many mechanical/machine-looking forms, yet he still wears this space suit! I get a kick out of the "Scooby Doo" like animation of Hordak fleeing as the torpedoes are sent right back at him! Thanks for reading and God Bless! ~"KevyGuy" :)
I was just about to make the same comment Kevin has made--Hordak's space suit is VERY reminiscent of the Monstroid design!
You know, with the antennas, his head somehow reminds me of Horde Prime from the UK comics. Well, at least a bit.
Normally I'm not the kind of guy who brings up 'Action figure possiblities' but in this case, I am tempted...
I have to agree that an entire episode with Hordak in this suit would have been very interesting. I wonder why it only lasted very little in the episode. It would have been nice to have seen more.
This spacesuit of Hordak was always so cool looking to me. I thought he looked like something out of Voltron as a kid.
