Hot Toys Previews 1/6 Don Vito Corleone From The Godfather
"Get shocked and be impressed by our life-like Godfather figurine... - Ladies and Gentlemen, please clap your hands and welcome our Godfather - Don Vito Corleone......This is NOT a movie still, NOT a waxwork, but a 1/6th scale collectible figure! Today, Hot Toys and Sideshow Collectibles proudly present the 1/6th scale Don Vito Corleone collectible figure from The Godfather movie. This movie has been ranked / voted by most of the Medias as the Greatest Films Ever in the past 10 years! This project is very meaningful to us, because it's our great pleasure to produce the memorable character - The Godfather with authentic Marlon Brando's likeness, and brought to you in perfect 1/6th scale! We also have 4 artists worked on this project, as we cannot make any single mistake on him. Besides of the figure itself, bonus will be added for our lovely fans - it will be Don Vito's chair! Let's take a closer look on this preview picture, and glue your eyes on our future newsletter to grab the rest. (Physical prototype will be out very soon!)" [via Hot Toys January enewsletter]
...They had me at the "chair" (I sure do lurve my 1/6th-scaled furniture!). Although the headsculpt's eyes look a tad "lifeless", if not in subtle-shock (and yes, I know tis a scaled figure ;p) - here's hoping the actual production piece would do the character justice, yeh? *Stay tuned to TRE*
