Edgar Rice Burroughs Legends
|
|
We are most pleased to present this line of highly articulated
action figures, adapted in Marvel Legends format from the classic
adventure stories penned by the well regarded Edgar Rice Burroughs.
[Part 1]
Our first wave starts with the legendary Lord Greystoke, or
Tarzan as he is known in the Dark Continent. His Lordship comes
with
interchangeable heads, by which you may choose to don the figure
with the noble visage befitting one of aristocratic English
blood, or unleash the savage within using the variant head,
allowing the Lord of the Apes to bellow the old Greystoke Clan
Battle Cry.
And
what sets the Ape-man's heart raging beneath his breast more
than that exquisite flower of proper English womanhood, the
lovely Jane. The fair lady is shown garbed as she would upon
first entering the luxuriant virgin jungle, her modesty not
yet abandoned for the uncivilized native garments. Such a pure
and innocent lass on the cusp of reckless abandon and danger!
And what dangers there be among these untamed vines and trees.
An unbridled great ape is a creature not to be trusted. The
beast comes with interchangeable heads, showing either the curious
gaze of its primitive brain, or the fury of a ravenous craving.
What forbidden thoughts must rage within his lustful mind. That
naughty monkey surely needs a spanking !!
And who more apt to discipline the great ape other than the
Lord of the Apes. His full contingent of ML style articulation
allows many
courses of action for the saving of the distressed damsel. Good
show, old boy!
(I say, speaking of good shows, it should be noted that his
Lordship dons a soft loincloth generously provided by Actorjez
of Philadelphia, that premiere clothier for the gentleman. Said
leopard print not only sets the appropriate image for Lord Greystoke's
alter ego as king of the jungle, but also allows unrestricted
movement of his most sinewy of thighs, even to the most immodest
of positionings as to endanger his Lordship of exposing his
most private concerns to wandering eyes. The apeman can be quite
the cheeky little monkey!)
Of course, we haven't forgotten the animal lovers among our
clientele. The monstrous primate is similarly endowed with ML
style
articulation, whereby the ape can mete out punishment of its
own. How bestial!
