Back in the '80s especially, a plethora of unlicensed
Star Wars action figures sprouted up across the globe. The rather poorly made Mexican and Polish ones are quite well known while, unfortunately, the Turkish line known as Uzay remains relatively unknown… This all comes back to the art toy medium as David "
HealeyMade" Healey teases the release of a new 3¾-inch tall (in)action figure, titled "Conterfeit (Head Man)." Aside from the above-pictured teaser using Turkish for the text — "Ben koyu bir oyuncak değilim… Ben bas adamim…" which roughly means "I'm not a dark doll… I'm a pressed man…" — this creation in the likeness of Kylo Ren is titled after the mysterious Head Man figure from the Uzay line. Of course, the real question is whether Healey's resin rendition will have the psychadelic, surrealistic backing card that the Uzay figures were really noted for! We'll find out come Wednesday, July 20th, 2016 at 5pm Pacific time when this release is available in
HealeyMade's online shop.
