In ancient Egyptian times, forbidden love brought a severe fate upon Imhotep (Boris Karloff) in Universal's The Mummy (1932) that would make even Romeo and Juliet shudder: being mummified alive. Hot on the heels of their Son of Frankenstein announcement, Mezco has now revealed a New York Comic Con exclusive black and white figure of The Mummy.
A 9-inch scale figure with 11 points of articulation, The Mummy is depicted in black and white to commemorate the monster's appearance in the 1932 Universal film. Only 250 figures were made, making The Mummy one of Mezco's most limited figures ever released.
Starting on August 22nd, Mezco will have collector's items available to purchase online while supplies last at http://www.mezcotoyz.com/exclusives/ . You can pick up The Mummy Limited Edition figure at Mezco’s booth #1855 at the New York Comic Con, which runs from October 9th – 12th. We have the press release with full details, as well as an early look at the figure:
New York- "Buried beneath the sands of time he rested, until he was awoken by Mezco's award-winning design team.
Now, Mezco proudly presents...The Mummy!
Imhotep, the iconic terror from the beneath the sand is presented in glorious black and white, just as he was in the terrifying 1932 classic film.
One of the most limited Universal Monsters ever produced by Mezco, he is an edition of only 250 pieces worldwide. Will he protect those lucky 250 from the curse of Amon-Ra? Only time will tell.
He stands 9" tall and captures the intricate detail of each ancient bandage: from his mysterious eyes, to his legendary scarab ring.
With 11 points of articulation he'll be able to take out any explorer who dares to come between him and his tana leaves.
He is packaged in a full color, collector-friendly window box.
This Mezco Exclusive is a Limited Edition. A select number of collector's items will be available online at http://www.mezcotoyz.com/exclusives/ , beginning August 22nd. Don't delay because once they are gone, they are gone forever!
Be sure to visit Mezco at New York Comic Con at booth 1855.
