Rarity
Uncommon. While exclusive to one specific set, that set was widely available at a mid-range price point during its retail run.
Head
Double-sided head; one side features a stern expression, the other a determined/grumpy look. Sand Green skin tone with dark brown facial hair and sideburns.

Dark Red base with integrated gold and dark brown armor plating. Features intricate mechanical and leather-strap detailing on the front and back. Dark Green arms with sand green hands.
Legs
Dark Brown legs with detailed gold and dark brown printing on the hips and front of the legs, continuing the ornate armor aesthetic from the torso.

Color Scheme
A rich palette of Dark Red, Dark Green, and Gold, representing the character's sorcerer robes and armor. Skin tone is Sand Green to match the MCU appearance.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head, torso, and legs. Significant detail in the gold metallic armor lines and the organic texture of the face/hair transition.
Variants
This is the current unique version representing Baron Mordo from the second Doctor Strange film. It differs from the 2016 version (sh310) which had a light flesh skin tone and simplified green robes.
Condition Notes
Main wear points are the fabric cape (fraying at edges) and potential paint rubbing on the gold metallic leg prints. Check for torso cracks under the arms.

Character Background
Karl Mordo is a former ally of Doctor Strange who turned against the sorcerers. This specific version represents the Master Mordo variant from Earth-838 featured in the Multiverse of Madness.
Design Notes
A notable design choice was the shift to Sand Green skin tone to better reflect the actor's likeness in certain lighting and the character's costume transition toward a more militaristic sorcerer look.
Similar Minifigures
Karl Mordo (sh310), Wong (sh832), Doctor Strange (sh831), and various other MCU sorcerer figures like Ancient One (sh311).
Collectibility
Moderate. It is a necessary component for MCU completionists and fans of the Doctor Strange film series, but has not yet seen a high price spike due to the high volume of sets produced.
History
This marks the second evolution of Mordo in LEGO form, released six years after his initial introduction in the first Doctor Strange wave of 2016.
Interesting Facts
The headband is a unique dual-molded hairpiece designed specifically to bridge the gap between Mordo's comic look and his updated cinematic appearance.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed alongside other members of the Illuminati or against the Gargantos monster. Use a clear 1x2 brick to pose him as if levitating or casting a spell.
Modification Potential
The torso and legs are popular for fantasy MOCs (My Own Creations) needing royal or ornate golden armor. The green cape is a versatile accessory for Robin or Forestmen customs.
Overall Assessment
A solid, highly-detailed figure that accurately captures the character's complex cinematic costume. It is a great value-for-money pickup for any Marvel collector.
