Sideshow Collectibles 1/6th Scale Escape From New York Snake Plissken
“Call me Snake”, Snake Plissken is probably one of the coolest characters in cinema history. Kurt Russell brought the iconic Cult Classic character of Snake Plissken to life in John Carpenter’s 1981 sci-fi masterpiece, Escape From New York. And now Sideshow Collectibles brings this character to the 1/6th figure scale, and they pretty much nailed it.I think Kurt Russell has one of those faces like Harrison Ford that is near impossible to capture 100%, but Sideshow gets pretty damn close. This head sculpt is one of those sculpts that at certain angles looks just like Kurt Russell, and at others looks nothing like him. For me, this is good enough and I think is overall, a pretty stellar headsculpt. The hair is fantastically sculpted. The body sculpt is great as well, great tailoring on the clothing, not Hot Toys level good, but still good (the jacket could use a bit more weathering). The jacket is easy to take off after removing Snake’s hands, but can be a pain to get back on. Pants and boots are good, thought the boots hinder ankle movement and are positioned in a way that when the figure is on the stand he wants to slide back.Accessories, man that’s the best part. You get an uzi with removable suppressor and scope that can be holstered and two clips which fit into the uzi as well as a cocking mechanism, his countdown life monitor, his U.S.P.F. tracker with button, his tracker for the President ("President of what?"), his walkie talkie with telescoping antenna, 5 other hands, 3 different shrukins, revolver with removable chamber and bullets and a cigarette. Yes, the bullets are tiny and can be pulled from the chamber of his six shooter, amazing. There are pouches for the tracker, extra uzi clips and the walkie talkie that can be holster attached to Snake’s belt. Though Snake really only wears his jacket and belt with all these weapons in a handful of scenes, I just really like the way he looks with his jacket. Though the figure still looks really great without the jacket, the arm sculpts are great and look realistic.If you’re an Escape From New York/Snake Plissken fan, you should get this. You can actually find this for a pretty affordable price, around $100 more than the new NECA 7” retro style Snake Plissken figure (Which is also a great figure and you should nab one). Are there some things that could be improved, sure but that’s kind of the case with every figure because there really isn’t any such thing as perfect. This figure comes FULLY APPROVED.
