From being originally drawn by the legendary Bernie Wrightson to being reinvented by visionary Alan Moore, the
DC Comics character of "Swamp Thing" has a long and rocky road to the present… which includes a movie rendition directed by horror icon Wes Craven. And now, courtesy of
Medicom Toys's "DC Hero: Sofubi Figure" line, the character will have new life yet again. The unique look of the figure is a combination of the master molds by
Bear Model and the paint design by Masashi "
FRENZY" Oishi, making the 12-inch tall figure – the first oversized DC-based sofubi from Medicom — imposingly cool looking! It even comes inside an American style toy box with art by José Luis García-López, reminiscent of the good ol' days! Available exclusively though comic shops (click
HERE to find the nearest one to you), these $119.99 apiece figures must be pre-ordered before March 18th, 2014 and are expected to ship in July 2014; to order, just go to a comic shop and request Item Code NOV138152.
