Bionatops from the Masters of the Universe Classics Mini Comic
In the MOTU Classics canon, Bionotops was infected with the Techno-Organic Virus, which gave it the ability to generate cybernetic weaponry. After He-Man rescued it from Snake Men hunters in Preternia, it became his steed in Eternia’s distant past and returned with him to his own time. The Bionotops joined the Masters of the Universe during the Second Ultimate Battleground. When Skeletor received a fatal blow from the dying Hordak, he absorbed the Bionotops’s Techno-Organic Virus to transform himself into a magical cyborg.
