Kneeling Talos (Ray Harryhausen) Review

Kneeling Talos
Ray Harryhausen (X-Plus)The Ray Harryhausen Film Library made a few of the best action/adventure movie toys I've ever had the honor to hold. Years later a toyline was made,yes! The 50's movie, Jason and the Argonauts was a fantastic adventure film about a Greek hero named Jason. His land is in poverty so he gathers a crew(the Argonauts) to sale to the other side of the globe in search of the golden fleece. In his quest, Jason sails to an island where there a few monumental statues of the Titans. Among them, a kneeling statue of Talos is awoken and the fight begins... Now to the toy. Talos is made of metal and is kneeling on a large base. The whole thing is only about 4 inches tall, but that's really all it needs. Talos carries a sword and wears a Roman-like helmet. This toy is extremley well detailed. The body is bronze with some green tint to make it look ancient. The pedastal upon which he kneels is very well detailed and even has the name, Talos, engraved on it. Talos would get 5 stars except for the small size. Overall this is agreat toy based on an even greater film...
