    Q & A with actor Robert Towers - KARG!

    Hey everyone,

    The interview I did with Robert Towers this week has now been posted. Robert played the part of KARG in the 1987 live action movie! This is another shared exclusive interview with the Masters of the Universe Movie Blog!

    You can read the interview in the He-Man.org Movie Features section HERE!

    Despite that big 80's hair, they did a nice job on Karg's look. And Robet Towers pulled off the role well. The movie has held up over time, especially the costumes and music.

    What is Karg supposed to be? A rodent type guy? Would love to see him immortalized in MOTUC, that's for sure.

    Karg was designed by William Stout to be half man/half bat.

    A bat is a flying rodent, close enough

    Maybe Karg is a distant relative of Hordak.

    Really cool, thanks for posting. I kinda feel bad they got his hopes up for a figure and then nothing. Hopefully one day.

    Thanks for posting this, great to see his answers! He was fantastic in the movie and it's good to see that like most of the rest of the cast, he has good memories of working on the film. Sounds as though Mattel would possibly have released a Karg figure if the toy line had continued. Hope we get him in MOTUC soon!

    Agreed. I bet Karg would have eventually been released had the line continued past 1988.
