Jungle Betty Page

In the 1980s comic book artist Dave Stevens reintroduced to the world the ‘good girl’ model Betty Page in his Rocketeer comic book series.

Sadly Dave seven passed away a number of years ago.  He was a young man.

For some odd reason photos of women dressed in leather loincloths and carrying spears or other jungle weapons while posing in a tropical jungle setting was alluring and sexy during the 1940s and 1950s.

Never one to pass up a trend Betty Page had her own portfolio of jungle shots. 

The Dark Horse Comics Jungle Betty Page toy features Betty in a leopard skin swimsuit with a spear and a leopard at her side amongst a jungle scene.

The box is all 1950s with its funky design and color scheme.

The articulated figure captures the look of Betty perfectly.  With her long black hair and its short bangs, creamy skin and captivating smile the figure is as sexy and provocative as Betty herself is.

Dressed in a real faux leopard skin bikini betty’s midriff and belly button and ample bosom are  displayed in all of their sexy glory. She poses with a cong wooden spear with twin red feathers and a seated leopard figure to her left.  

She also comes with a African native shield and both Betty and the leopard sit on dirt base with hints of grass a few plants, some fallen coconuts and twin palm tree trunks with hanging coconuts serving as a backdrop. 

Betty also wears a silver anklet on her right ankle and a silver upper arm bracelet on her right arm.

It’s an extremely well-crafted figure and set with tight sculpting, clear color application and time period appropriate accessories and clothing.
