"SUPER PROFESSIONAL 5" by Fools Paradise Pays Homage to "LEON: THE PROFESSIONAL"
I am honestly surprised and impressed with Fools Paradise with both the design and the release of this figure set, as you do not very often see a overt "bloodied" visual,
Introducing the "SUPER PROFESSIONAL 5" collectibles - featuring TWO figures together in a toy-manifestation from Luc Besson's "Léon: The Professional", specifically of a climactic final scene (Scroll thru to the bottom to view SPOILER clip).
Using both "Luigi" and "Mario" as the protagonists ("Gary Oldman" versus "Jean Reno") totally softens the impact of the scene, although might be oblivious for folks who've not watched the 1994-film. Folks'll recognise the item in Luigi's hand...
Sized approx 32 cm tall, this Vinyl+PVC is priced at 380 USD (+ 60 global shipping). Limited to 499 sets worldwide maximum (made to order). Approx Ship on 3rd Quarter of 2022. Pre-orders since launched on doublefools.blogspot.com.
This its not the first time @foolsparadisetoys has utilised MARIO (and Luigi) as figure protagonists, and as well the Hong Kong toy-brand's ongoing design+release of cinematic-influenced collectibles, including "Snow Fiction"/"Pulp Fiction", "Super Fiction", "Super Fiction 2", and especially "The Professional"-themed releases, with , "Super Professional 3", "Super Professional 2", and 2018's "Super Professional"!
