And here’s the deluxe version…
Once a Ravager, forever a Ravager. Yondu will always remain in our hearts. Years ago when Yondu were actively involved in child trafficking in Ego’s quest, Captain Stakar exiled him for violating the Ravager code. But after knowing the terrible fate the child will face, Yondu chose not to deliver Peter Quill (Star-Lord) to Ego and raised him instead; even sacrificed himself to save his beloved son Star-Lord. Today, Hot Toys is pleased to dedicate to Marvel fans the 1/6th scale Yondu collectible figure in memory of his selfless act and his loyalty as a Ravager from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2.
Expertly crafted based on the image of Michael Rooker as Yondu in the well-reviewed blockbuster, the 1/6th scale Yondu collectible figure is just phenomenal, highlighting the remarkable likeness. The figure features a newly developed head sculpt, interchangeable magnetic fin and the new “prototype” fin, a intricately tailored and highly detailed costume, a pair of suspenders with arrow holster, a dagger attached to the wristband holster, a specially designed figure base, and a miniature Baby Groot attacking in his Ravagers outfit!
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 sees director James Gunn reuniting with returning cast members Chris Pratt (Star-Lord), Zoe Saldana (Gamora), Dave Bautista (Drax), Bradley Cooper (Rocket), Vin Diesel (Groot), Karen Gillan (Nebula), Michael Rooker (Yondu), Glenn Close (Nova Prime), Sean Gunn (Kraglin) and Laura Haddock (Meredith Quill) alongside new additions Pom Klementieff (Oldboy) as Mantis, Elizabeth Debicki (The Man from U.N.C.L.E.) as Ayesha, Kurt Russell (The Hateful Eight) as Ego the Living Planet, Chris Sullivan (The Drop) as Taserface, Tommy Flanagan (Sons of Anarchy) as Tullk and Sylvester Stallone (Creed) as Stakar.
