Spawn figures didn't become little statues until the beginning of the 2000s and they carried on as such until about 2008 or 2009. I bought quite a number of the different plastic statues because I did like some of the poses like the issue 43 one where Spawn's supported by a metal rod to give him a flying effect and his cape is all crazy around him. This new offering on the other hand has a very vanilla pose so it's a pass, as a creation of the '90s Spawn looks "extreme" and he needs extreme poses to keep it cool.

Spawn sure, they were actually action figures in the beginning, and they were play-withable when they first came out. I mean, they had at least as much articulation as the 8000 obscure Toy Biz X-Men characters that were constantly marked down to $1.50 in KB Toys. Movie Maniacs line, not so much. Here's your Freddy figure--you can move his head as much as you want and one arm... Have fun!

But that's all we had back in ye oldern days. We didn't know any better.
