We love you all year round, Sam.

If there’s a horror villain birthed in the last decade who deserves to stand alongside giants like Freddy and Jason it’s undoubtedly the pint-sized Sam, who we met in Michael Dougherty’s Trick ‘r Treat. Granted, he hasn’t yet solidified his status as an icon with sequels, but there’s no denying that Sam is just that: an icon. He’s got toys. He’s got Halloween masks. He’s got comic books. And he’s already tattooed on the bodies of countless horror fans. He’s become a symbol of Halloween, like Michael Myers before him, and we cannot wait for his return in Trick ‘r Treat 2.

But while we wait, a new Sam toy is on its way into our lives.

Courtesy of Mezco comes the “Stylized Sam” vinyl figure, now up for pre-order and expected to begin shipping in either July or August. Yes, you’ll have him just in time for Halloween!

Straight from the cult status film Trick ‘r Treat comes Sam, the enforcer of the rules of Halloween. Part pumpkin, part supernatural being, Sam shows no mercy to those who disrespect his holiday.

This Sam is presented in our signature super-deformed style. He may look child-like and dressed for trick-or-treating, but Sam is the personification of Halloween itself. He stands nearly 6″ tall and features 5 points of articulation. He comes complete with his ever-present trick-or -treat sack, and his half-eaten translucent pumpkin lollipop.

Sam is packaged in a specially die-cut window box suitable for display. Just remember, he can watch you from inside the box, so don’t blow out your pumpkin until midnight.

You can adopt Sam for just $23 over on Mezco’s website!
