The Ultimate Gangster: Scarface


“Say hello to my little friend!”  Who can forget that famous phrase uttered by Al Pachino in the movie Scarface!

Sideshow Collectibles' Scarface comes in a special box with large photos of the Scarface figure on its front, sides and back.

A small hole in the back of the box lets toy collectors push a button n the figure to cause it to say famous saying from the film.  

The flip lid box has information about the character and film on the inside flap and the figure (with accessories) is displayed behind a clear plastic panel in the main box.

The figure, circular base with wire support and accessories are held in place by a clear plastic form-fitted cocoon and clear plastic straps.

The figures comes with a silver pistol with a wooden handle, a large knife with black handle and five packs of wrapped 20-dollar bills.

The figure’s pre-postioned hands can hold all of the accessories with no slippage or wonkiness.

The figure’s face looks exactly like the actor with short-cropped black hair, deep eyes, sharp nose and scowling expression.

Coloration and sculpt work are lean, crisp, precise and very realistic.

Scarface wears a white open collar suit coat with white buttons and a single pocket with a deep red handkerchief, a white vest with white buttons, white pants, a deep red shirt with a large collar open at the neck, a gold chain and brown shoes.

All are made of real fabrics, are stitched with small stitching, expertly scaled down to fit the figure and are loose enough to let the figure pose without bundling or unsightly folds or creases.

It's an impressive ensemble of one the silver screen’s most notorious mobster figures.

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law." — Galatians 5:22-23
