Matty 12" Gene Hackman Lex Luthor

Not sure if this Toyfare pic from before Christmas has been posted already previously.



coming "Spring 2011".

Will folks be picking this up? I will be, just to complete the set, but I'm not overly enthused by the likeness in the prototype shown here. The hair pieces are a fun idea though. Not sure if this will be of any interest whatsoever to the casual fan at the $60 price point.

They might have been better off doing Jor-El, Non or Ursa, but they are referring to this as a series of three.

kinda looks more like patrick stewart as lex luthor

[ScottA]

I think it looks more like E.G. Marshall.

Can Lois be far off?

I think Hackman's in there, but he didn't have that stern look on his face as Lex very often. The big pick with the parted toupee makes him look like a young Albert Finney.

If we could see him bald, the facial expression may match Lex's "reveal" at the end of the first movie where he takes off his toupee in the prison yard.

I think it looks more like E.G. Marshall.

So it's the President of the USA from this movie series then! Right series, wrong actor!

Scott you are right! that is the best (and only) E.G. Marshall figure I have ever seen.

[GlobalObserver]

I think it looks more like E.G. Marshall.

Ditto.

[Gorn Captain]

That is the greatest Albert Finney figure I have ever seen.
Daddy Warbucks lives!!!!!

I wish he'd come with the Kryptonite necklace too

[Earth 2 Chris]

The article says he comes with Kryptonite on a chain.

I wish he came with Miss Tessmacher!

I want to buy one, put a wig on it and paint it up as Peter Criss from KISS.

(wondering how many got the joke)

Took me about 8 seconds... I'm a Museum-a-holic.

It actually'd pass well for a Gene Simmons sculpt....more than a Gene Hackman!

I'd buy the figure for the suit and the wigs and replace the head
(and possibly the body) w/something better.
