Judge Dredd and Judge Death





Judge Dredd
is the ultimate lawman and defender of Mega-City.  His evil doppelganger: Judge Death, is a horrific living corpse from and alternate universe where the ultimate penalty for living is death!

The two great creations are from the British 2000 A.D. comic book anthology weekly series made famous by artist Brian Bolland.

In 1999 Reaction Figures created both a Dredd and Death 6-inch, articulated action figures.

The Judge Dredd action figure comes on a bubble card with a form-fitting plastic cocoon holding the figure in place.  The card background consists of Judge Dredd color painting and a large vertical Judge Dredd logo with badge.

The figure features the Judge with has jutting jaw, red, blue and yellow helmet with badge insignia and visor.  Dredd’s shoulders are hidden by two large shoulder pads with the right one sculpted to look like an eagle.

Dredd wears a form-fitting blue outfit that covers his chest, torso, upper legs and upper arms.  The body suit has a long zipper from chest to crotch with a gold chain attached to Dredd’s badge.

He wears green elbow and shoulder pads, a green belt with a gold eagle buckle, green gloves and green boots with a gun holster on the right boot.

Included with the figure is a large hand weapon (Lawgiver Mark 1) painted a dull silver, a Birdie Lie Detector, a small dull silver dagger and a black Billy club. 

The Judge Death figure is a perverted version of Judge Dredd.

It wears a dark blue helmet with a silver grating over its eyes and shoulder pads-one a series of human bones and the other a dragon with its wings open over the Judge’s back and chest.

Other costume accessories include a bone laced elbow and shoulder pads, a grisly skull with wings belt buckle on a yellow bone belt and a large dull silver DEATH badge on its dark blue body leotard.

Judge Death’s bony hands and feet are bare.  His desiccated grinning skull juts form under his helmet

A black orb with yellow warning label (Dimension Jumper) and a human heart are also included.

The packaging is similar to the Judge Dredd bubble pack.  The only difference is that it has a full color painting of Judge Death as the  background.
