I met up with my friend, Mel, who had a couple of surprises for me, which isn't so surprising since (as most Bizarrechats visitors realize) she's known for her generosity. In this case, she gifted me a set of Culturefly/FlyGuys (Gunnar Hansen) Leatherface figures, one a "Pretty Woman" version and the other, a butcher (cook) version.
The vinyl representations measure 4.5", both mounted on round, plastic (black, logoed) bases.
In the case of the "Pretty Woman" version, Leatherface is hoisting his frightful weapon of choice, appearing as he did during the movie's climax, finalizing Marilyn Burns' poor Sally Hardestey's voyage into permanent madness.
In the case of the butcher version, he's again armed with his saw, in this case darted downward, in a tense yet diligent pose, appareled as he was during his initial (startling) appearance of the tale, when he bludgeons William Vail's unsuspecting Kirk.
The packaging for each figure is commanding, with clips from the movie adoring the back and sides. The clear-plastic fronts allow the figures to be viewed and appreciated, if one chooses to keep them MIB.
Believe it or not, I had no idea these pieces were produced, so I'm grateful that Mel found them. I'm a huge, Texas Chain Saw Massacre fan, so anything tied to the movie (and the franchise in general) means a lot.
Bless you once again, dear Mel, for knowing my macabre penchants so well.👍
