Throwback Thursday - Scarface

Throwback Thursday - Scarface

Say hello to my little friend! In 2005, Mezco Toyz paid homage to Scarface, one of the greatest gangster films of all time. Released in 1983 and directed by Brian De Palma, the film follows Cuban refugee and mobster Tony Montana (Al Pacino) after his arrival in 1980s Miami. Montana's rise to drug kingpin and inevitable fall from power engrossed audiences. Scarface is still regarded by audiences and critics as one of the best crime films of all time.

The 10" roto-cast figures paid homage to different scenes in the film and included removable accessories. These figures included the Runner, the Rise, The Player, the Enforcer, and the Fall.

A 10" Tower Records Exclusive was also released, featuring Montana in a black suit, gun, stack of cash- teeth bared and ready for business. Two deluxe stylized Black and White Suit versions with sound were also released, capable of saying nine movie phrases.
