Mattel definitely surprised us this morning by sending a Vigo "Scourge of Carpathia, Sorrow of Moldavia" figure a good 4 months before its scheduled release! Opening the standard white mailer was filled with suspense and questions of
What will he look like!? and the feeling of
I CAN'T WAIT!!. It will definitely feel like Christmas for everyone who receives this Vigo figure in December when its released.
Opening the Vigo figure it becomes apparently quickly. There is something different about him compared to all the other figures. Vigo is a 6"
scaled figure. He stands nearly an
inch taller than the regular figures, so he towers over everyone released so far. The figure includes a pack in lenticular painting that is definitely the best thing they could have possibly included with the figure (aside from a kitten of course!). Turn the painting one way and Vigo is present with his sinister stare, turn it the other way and he disappears! On the reverse side, the
four Ghostbusters are there with baby Oscar in the painting from the end of the Ghostbusters 2. Definitely a great touch.
Vigo will be released December 2011 exclusively on
MattyCollector.com.
