About this deal

the United Kingdom has a long tradition of sinister, mythical, giant dogs - pretty much every culture that's ever lived on the British Isles has had its own take on the hellhound, for instance - so making this lycanthrope more closely resemble those tales makes it feel appropriately localized. The AAWiL WW is not colorful, but its dark brownish-grey fur gets different apps to make it look layered, and the claws are lighter so they look nice and scary on the end of the paws.

And finally we have full on wolf head, which was such a beautiful mask in the film and I think it’s reproduced here quite well. This is an image gallery made up of a main image and a thumbnail carousel that updates the main image to match the focused thumbnail. The film’s Nightmare Demon sequence involves a squad of military demons bursting into the Kessler home and massacring the whole family.

Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. It’s not bad, but there’s a lot going on here in a fairly small lump of plastic, and I don’t think it quite does the prosthetic justice. Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH). Part of the "Kessler Wolf" design is the way the giant fangs protrude from the mouth, snd there's no real way to make them look correct in both closed and open poses without resculpting the mouth. Includes interchangeable heads and comes in a collector-friendly window box with opening flap that's great for display.Yeah, I nitpicked one of the heads, but you have to realize that I was obsessed with monster effects when I was a teenager and I remember drooling over pictures of Rick Bakers’ work in magazines and I really wanted to own one like it. It’s absolutely balls-out mental, brutal, and one of the most disturbingly memorable scenes in a flick that is already full of hard to forget imagery. Never before made as an action figure, Kessler's wolf form is more than 11 inches at its full length and has over 30 points of articulation.

This set of stylized 6-inch scale action figures comes from An American Werewolf in London, the classic 1981 movie that perfectly blends comedy and true horror. But what’s unexpected is the lovely lenticular effect on the front panel, which is the very definition of chef’s kiss! Rather than do a movable jaw, the figure includes two heads, and that was absolutely the right choice. So we've got one head that's growling and one that's ready to bite, and the mouth on that second one is open wide enough you could almost get a human character's entire head inside it!Products may contain sharp points, small parts, choking hazards, and other elements not suitable for children under 16 years old. I’m in the middle of a bonus NECA horror weekend trifecta, just to squeeze a few extra spooky bits of plastic in before Halloween. You get a lot of the same creasing to the face, a sort of mohawk on his coif and patches of hair forming mutton chops on his cheeks. Never before made as an action figure, Kessler’s wolf form is more than 11 inches at its full length and has over 30 points of articulation.

I hesitate to give it the comedy-horror moniker, because despite the more flippant and whimsical elements, I found this movie to be absolutely terrifying when I first saw it. There are a bevy of accessories to use with the figures including some hands that are intended for specific accessories.

However, sometimes the manufacturer can run into production or licensing problems and occasionally items are cancelled either temporarily or permanently. This amount includes seller specified domestic postage charges as well as applicable international postage, dispatch, and other fees. Again, I kind of always saw this as a dude in the very first stage of changing to werewolf, but it may just be intended as a scary monster head. As a result, I’ve always thought these demons were supposed to represent different phases of lycanthropy, ranging from sort of human to full on werewolf. The classic 1981 movie is the perfect blend of comedy and true horror and follows two American backpackers and their increasingly terrifying trip across England.
