Heavy Metal 5-Inch Figures by Incendium – Toyark Photo Shoot

Posted on January 9, 2020 at 3:35 pm by Joe Moore under General Toy News, Random Photo Shoot

In 1981, an incredibly ambitious animated film based on Heavy Metal magazine was released. The film was an anthology that brought together major Hollywood talent, as well as a number of legendary rock artists for an experience that was unlike anything that had been released at the time. The movie, like the magazine that inspired it, was geared strictly towards adult audiences, with heavy violence and plenty of nudity throughout. Heavy Metal featured a wrap around story of a green sphere, known as the Loc-Nar, that tells a young girl of the terrors it has witnessed.

Incendium has released two new action figures based on the cult film. The first is Taarna, a warrior bent on destroying the Loc-Nar. The next is Nelson, a World War II tail gunner reanimated by the Loc-Nar as a zombie. The figures stand at 5″ tall, and come packed in specialized card backs. They are priced at $29.95 each, and can be purchased directly from Incendium Online (sold out at the moment).

Today I have a photo gallery and review of the new figures. Incendium was kind enough to send over the figures for review. After the jump you can see my thoughts on the figures, as well as a full photo shoot.

Posted on January 9, 2018 at 1:15 pm by Joe Moore under General Toy News

New photos and details have been posted by Sideshow Collectibles for their new Heavy Metal – Taarna Premium Format Figure. This statue, based on the cult classic animated Heavy Metal film, and stands over 22″ tall! Sideshow is offering a standard and an exclusive edition. The exclusive version will include a swap out hand holding the Talisman of the Barbarian Warlord. See details below.

To your Taarakian mount! Sideshow is proud to present the Taarna Premium Format™ Figure from the cult classic film Heavy Metal.

As the last of the strong Taarakian warrior race, Taarna is a stoic, brave fighter summoned to protect a vulnerable village from a group of brutal barbarians. This polyresin statue stands over 22” tall atop a Heavy Metal themed base, which includes mechanical elements and earthen details inspired by Taarna’s part in destroying the evil Loc-Nar.

Taarna is clad in a sculpted black costume and red shoulder armor with gold accents and details of battle-damage. She brandishes a golden sword, and her skin is marked with several bleeding wounds as signs of her fateful battle with the Barbarians.

Although she is a silent hero, Taarna’s expression speaks volumes. Her carefully sculpted portrait bears a look of grim determination, complete with the Taarakian mark tattooed on her neck. Her windswept, silvery hair frames her face as she looks towards her next foe with silent fury.

The Exclusive edition of The Taarna Premium Format™ Figure comes with a swap-out hand clutching the Talisman of the Barbarian Warlord, taken by the Taarakian in victory over her foe.
