Just last year, NECA turned the Wyld Stallyns and the late George Carlin’s Rufus into retro-style Bill & Ted action figures, leaving many fans to wonder if the character of Death would be coming in the future. Played by William Sadler in 1991 sequel Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey, “the man with no tan” is one of the series’ most beloved characters, and indeed NECA is bringing him to this year’s San Diego Comic Con!
The just announced SDCC 2017 exclusive brings Death into NECA’s retro-style toy line, and only 1,000 of the figures will be made. They’re set to retail at the event for $35.
Whether you call him the Duke of Spook, the Doc of Shock, or the Man with No Tan, Death is now a truly excellent clothed action figure. Life is great for Bill and Ted… until they’re killed by evil robots from the future! To cheat death, save the world from evil, rescue the princess babes, and be back in time to win the Battle of the Bands, they’ll need a little help from the Grim Reaper himself.
Death stands 8” tall and features the authorized likeness of William Sadler. The fully poseable figure has a mixed media fabric robe and cowl, and comes with a scythe accessory. Check out the awesome upcoming toy below!
SDCC 2017 kicks off on Thursday, July 20.
