Blitzway - Mask of Zorro - Zorro Collectible Figure

[jespernicolaj]

Unforgiven is my favourite movie of all time. I would love some figures from that movie. But you cannot say western without saying horses. Can anyone recommend a great 1/6 horse?
I will get that Zorro and also Morgan Adams. I love that Blitzway are doing this. Their HS's are almost as good as HT, their Calito's Way is up there with the best HT.
So bring it Blitzway.

If the HS was good ... maybe. To be honest, I would rather have his horse

I think that was actually Michael Douglas's wedding vows...

Anyone know when we will see this?unless it's been cancelled.

 

[davejames]

No idea, but they put that Cutthroat Island figure up for preorder that no one was interested in, so odds are good we'll see this one as well.

Unless they’re waiting to see how sales of Morgan Adams go to see whether or not they should expend any more resources on obscure licenses, or just do the same old routine stuff everyone else does.

Oh man I hope they don't cancel this and it actually goes up for PO soon.

Years ago I bought a Zorro figure from Triad Toys.
It was not based on the movies starring Banderas (that's why it didn't have his likeness),
but all in all even if old it is a great figure.
If I didn't have him I would be all over Blitzway's figure, but I don't need a 2ond Zorro figure.
Anyway his face is behind a mask, so there 's really no reason to have Bandera's likeness.

 

[davejames]

Yeah he's wearing a mask, but it's still pretty recognizably Antonio Banderas. And the outfit was also a bit more distinctive than the more generic version of that older figure.

Though it's pretty outdated compared to current figure standards, I'm pretty happy with the Triad Toys version of Zorro. It's more of a generic representation of the character that runs the gamut of the different screen versions, yes, including even the George Hamilton version! Though I was a big Antonio Banderas fan at the time when Mask of Zorro was released (loving him in Assassins and Desperado) and the fact that a genuine Spaniard was cast to play a Spaniard, I actually preferred Anthony Hopkins' more refined dash as Zorro. I feel that the Triad version captures that, as well as some of the Disney Zorro with Guy Williams. The only change I made was the sword, which I got from the French Guardsman figure by Ignite Toys.

This is still planned right? Still no official pics or any word of when its going up for PO.

I hope so.

Small detail (yet it's those that make the difference) , something Blitzway could add, which Triad seems to have managed, so no reason Blitzway shouldn't be able too, is the boot-spurs.

While not everyone will pose him on a horse, and he doesn't wear them throughout Mask \ film, they are in Mask's opening title sequence;



...and seen throughout Legend (same costume), so if they are going for a one time definitive/ultimate figure, it'd be nice detail to add from the go.

This is exactly my feeling. The figure is great, better than the Triad figure tbh, but....

I never liked the fact that Banderas wasn’t Don Diego. Not the real Zorro to me. So I’ll probably pass and keep that more generic Zorro that could be any of the actors that played the role before.

Well I think Blitzway just finished that 1/4 scale astronaut they put up for preorder last year. So hopefully that frees up their factory to start getting other figures into production.

Was Cutthroat Island the only preorder that went up from their SDCC reveals last year?

 

[HPGR_Thrawn]

As far as I've seen.
