Oh No! Zanti Misfit Attacks The Realm

This was my favorite episode of the original Outer Limits series from 1963. It starts out with a group of airmen awaiting the arrival of a spaceship from the planet Zanti containing a bunch of their criminals. A con man and his girl crash into the landing area just as the ship lands and after the guard (The Regent) gets killed by a human and having all the criminals escape and get killed by the airman you find out that even though they threaten earth with destrution if they interfered with the landing they hoped we would killed them because they are unable to kill their own kind and we are "practiced executioners" and would kill them because they were different from us.

Well a few years ago Sideshow Toys produced a set of two figures from the show The Regent and a prisoner. These were full size (1:1) with rooted hair and nice articulation. Being a fool I didn't get an order in on time and missed my chance. Well now I got one - The Regeant. The box is banged up but I am more interested in the contents.

So here he is The Regent.

THE BOX

As you can see it is a little battered but it has nice pictures of the zanti and a very nice description on the inner flap of the episode.

THE REGENT

He is a very nice figure about a foot long and 6 inches high. The head is ball mounter as is the tail and legs. The antenna rotate from side to side. The expression on the face is dead on from the tv episode. The thing I like is that they didn't over do the articulation. The legs move just enough so you can pose him but not have him sag from the weight. He is a rotocast figure.

As a scale I have one of the Mouse Guard figures defending the house from him.
