on

The majority of the big franchise horror icons have gotten their own Funko toys by now, but one icon you haven’t yet been able to add to your collection is the Tall Man from Phantasm, played by the late Angus Scrimm across four movies between 1979 and 2016. For the 45th anniversary of the original horror classic, the Tall Man is finally getting his own Funko toy!

The upcoming Phantasm collectible has been previewed by Funko this week, the toy capturing Angus Scrimm’s iconic visage and even coming complete with a silver death sphere.

Preview the Tall Man toy below and expect it to hit toy shelves soon.

The only other official Tall Man toy we’ve gotten over the years was from NECA’s Cult Classics line of figures, part of the second series that was released way back in 2005.

Speaking of Phantasm, franchise creator Don Coscarelli returns to the universe with six brand new original short stories in Phiction: Tales from the World of Phantasm, now available!

Writer in the horror community since 2008. Editor in Chief of Bloody Disgusting. Owns Eli Roth's prop corpse from Piranha 3D. Has four awesome cats. Still plays with toys.
