TOY NEWS FOR 7/25/2013 - HOT TOYS - THE CROW - ERIC DRAVEN

I've got mixed feelings about this one.

While the figure looks just freakin' perfect, I think most-- if not all-- of my enthusiasm for The Crow as a character is long gone.

I never read the comics, but I did very much love the film. It was probably the first superhero film to do it right.

I would definitely love to have it, but with all the other high-end stuff that comes out throughout the year, sometimes you just have to pass on toys that you otherwise wouldn't.

But-- damn-- this really is the ultimate Crow figure, isn't it? Guitar, trench coat, raven... and that face sculpt!

Damn you, Hot Toys... Damn you...

  1. I still love and watch the first movie. The "sequels"....not so much. Fantastic piece of comic book cinema fun.

  2. I'd hate to be "that guy", but I SO wish Hot Toys included a closed mouth head as well. It does come with a lot of 'swag' though and everything is SPOT on. But you nailed it...the almost definite $200+ price tag on this bad boy makes you really weigh its relevance on your display shelf.

    1. Yeah, the days of Hot Toys including two head sculpts are loooong gone. Now they save a second sculpt for a second figure! Gotta milk us for all we're worth!
