ToyLand: Herbert West & His Talking Head

This new fig from NECA has a good head on his shoulders… and another one on his desk…

Re-Animator is based on HP Lovecraft’s tale of horror and the pursuit of scientific discovery. The movie has a mix of science fiction, horror, and comedy that made it an unlikely critical hit. It took First Prize at the Paris Festival of Fantasy, Science Fiction, and Horror at the Cannes Film Festival in 1985. It has since become a mainstay of midnight movie showings and a beloved cult classic. Jeffrey Combs’ performance as Herbert West – hell-bent on perfecting his reanimation serum –  is a big part of what draws audiences back.

If you’ve never seen it, tonight is a time – it’s Friday the 13th, after all.

Warning: reanimated man butt.

• Herbert West stands about 8 inches tall
• Highly poseable
• Accessories included: bottle of reanimation reagent, syringe, bloody shovel, Rufus the cat and tray with severed head
• Features: fabric clothing and fabric lab coat
• Resealable clamshell packaging
