00:25scream greats ten and a half inch action figure the scream greats series features
00:29iconic characters from your favorite cinematic masterpieces this highly
00:32detailed figure is an 8 inch scale and is perfect for display in any horror
00:36collection larger than the rest of line pumpkin head stands approximately ten
00:39and a half inches tall the monster includes a stand and his package in a
00:43display box luckily for you you won't need the help of a witch to summon this
00:46spirit of vengeance yeah the trick-or-treat studio scream greats
00:49pumpkin heads available either right now at tots website directly or you can also
00:53order it from other online sites now I've ordered mine from Entertainment
00:56Earth just because I had a credit over at entertainment at the time but yeah
01:00you can either order from either one of those sites I'll provide links down
01:03below in the video description I'll also bring in in a second the other scream
01:06greats and you can see how great the line has been so far he's clearly gonna
01:09be a lot taller too the description actually calls him at being a ten and a
01:13half inch scale figure yet actually if you take the tape measure he's more
01:16closer being about ten inches exactly which translates though to a figure
01:21that's about twenty five and a half centimeters tall here's a guy that knows
01:24a little something about pumpkins the scream greats Michael Myers not hard to
01:27argue that probably one of the best head sculpt we've ever gotten from Michael
01:30not only has trick-or-treat stew has been doing such a fine job on the six
01:34scale sizing of Myers but don't overlook what they've also been doing with the
01:37scream greats not only did we get ourselves a fine-looking Myers but we
01:40also got an equally cool-looking motel hell farmer Vincent's and not slouching
01:45at all here's also what the figure looks like with candy man now for the figures
01:49accessories it's easy to count that he only has one that's his display stand
01:52the display stand though not bad at all it's basically just cast here in black
01:56plastic it does have the scream greats logo along the top and it does have
01:59dedicatedly sized pegs these pegs won't work specifically where you flip the
02:03figure around and they'll work the same way no in fact actually when you're
02:07putting him down on the display stand and one reason why I chose to leave the
02:10stand off at the beginning of this review is more just to show you that
02:12yeah the pumpkin head stands fine on his own I mean if you are one that likes for
02:17example I'm gonna bring back in Michael Myers here if you're one that likes just
02:19to display your figures loose without display stands pumpkin head you have no
02:23worries whatsoever the figure it stands like I said fine going though back to
02:27the display stand one thing though again like when you're putting him down you'll
02:30notice on the bottom of his feet there's a hole that's larger than the other they
02:33did that specifically so that when you are putting him down on display base
02:36there's only one way to put him basically attach the one foot on one
02:39side and obviously match up the other on the other and then of course he's
02:43displayed that way but let's just say because I said all that if you wanted to
02:47flip the figure around and put him in the opposite direction the opposite
02:50configuration just detach him from the display stand pegs flip him around and
02:54you'll notice right away the foot doesn't actually go down on the peg it's
02:58way too large on this side so again there's only one way to actually put him
03:01down on the display stand I mean not that that's a real big thing anyways I
03:04would like to think though if you're gonna be putting the figure on the
03:06shelf with the use of the display stand you probably would want to have the
03:10screen grades facing forward anyways let's move that off to the side and
03:14getting a closer look at pumpkin head boy this figure is one that I have been
03:17waiting a while for I really like the look of them quite a lot a lot as well
03:21and you know again he's not just a statue I mean that's one of the kind of
03:24misconceptions when you think of like the screen grades some have said that
03:27they're basically more statues than they are figures but you know there are some
03:30decent posability points in all of them the Michael Myers had like ball joints
03:34for example in his head a hinge joins though in the shoulders and a swivel
03:37joint also in his hand so he had some mileage to work with pumpkin head seems
03:41to have a little bit more but before we actually start talking a little bit
03:44about the possibility points of pumpkin head sorry for spitting all over you
03:47let's look at that stellar looking head sculpt knocking out of the park would
03:51probably be a thing I'm gonna say quite often in this review and I think they've
03:53done such a great job on the release here of pumpkin head other than really
03:58what I can think of is like the movie maniacs pumpkin head there hasn't really
04:01been really much the market at all this vengeance character there's been few and
04:06far between and I'm glad to kind of see that pumpkin heads getting more of a
04:09spotlight when it comes to figures and collectibles I mean such a good-looking
04:12head sculpt though I mean getting just a closer look at what's going on here I
04:15mean just to say that he's been layered in pain is an understatement I mean look
04:19at how many layers of paint go into the head sculpt of pumpkin head I would
04:22imagine he probably starts more like this beige color and then airbrushed
04:26over it layers upon layers you got like more of a darker reddish coloring of
04:29that same beige and some nice added a little bit of grays in there as well it
04:33really helps to bring a lot of those areas and all a sculpt to the forefront
04:37of course you've got the painted well eyes there too I mean they're nicely
04:40nice and bright you can also see as well he's got some visible teeth the reasoning
04:44why they call more so pumpkin has just the lankiness of the character and the
04:48fact obviously his head sculpt looks more that more of that of a pumpkin but
04:51so much good sculpting went into this guy you can see like he's he's
04:54definitely a more malnourished character when it comes to his frame the top of his
04:58torso again has some really nice uses of those darker grays and all that nice
05:02little additional red that they've added in there as well he has seems seems to
05:05have a lot more here than he has down below in his abdomen area I mean you can
05:09kind of see more that there's more of a central focus on giving that the head
05:13sculpt paint and the torso paint he doesn't get as much down below here in
05:17his legs and his abdomen nor in his arms but it's still pretty good though on the
05:21back you can see all the additional bones sticking out the top of his body
05:25not to mention his spinal cord as well like there's a lot of again like
05:28malnourishment to the way they've sculpted this figure it looks like this
05:31man never eats and I guess he probably does eat a little bit in the movie long
05:35looking arms as well he's got these gnarly looking hands with these claws
05:39sticking out the fingers sticking out on the ends these fingernails by the way
05:42are softer plastic so don't worry at all but they're gonna be breaking on you you
05:46can see there's a lot of give going for these not that it would really recommend
05:49start to bend the fingers back and forth who's gonna really do that I'm gonna do
05:52that just to kind of show you guys in this review you have no worries
05:54whatsoever when it comes to those nails long legs down below here as well I mean
05:58like his anatomy obviously they tried to do their best there are a few little
06:01areas obviously here in pumpkin and we're gonna spend a whole lot of time
06:04talking about that one thing I do certainly want to talk about is the fact
06:07that this figure does also have a wire built into his tail so there is a bit of
06:11manipulation you can actually do to his tail it doesn't bend as much but you'll
06:15be happy to know as well he does also have some tail articulation too so even
06:19though he doesn't have as much maybe is what most wire frames would be built
06:22into tails would give you you can't at least rotate the tail so there's that
06:25nice sculpting also on the feet as well I also like really the design of the
06:30stilted character like this now obviously this would have been a real
06:32stuntman working underneath the costume no relying on actual CD and CG I mean
06:38obviously if they started to do a pumpkin head movie now everything would
06:41have to rely on CG practical effects is really where a chance for like a monster
06:45like this to really shine now for the pose ability on this guy there's a lot
06:48to really talk about like he's not as much of a statue as you would think the
06:52heads first of all gonna be on what seems to be a ball joint because it does
06:55move up and it does move down so again if you want to have more of a looming
06:58look onto the character you can easily pose the head down like this there's
07:02also a bit of a rock back and forth there as well the upper torso very
07:06generous of a ball joint so you can rotate that all the way around the arms
07:10do hinge out so there's if you were to look at this like a T pose the figure
07:14essentially would be able to do that although there's no possibility in the
07:17elbows either one of the elbows nor is there really possibility in the hands
07:20again I don't feel like it necessarily needs that as well like for me to pose
07:23this guy on the shelf he's pretty much gonna be doing exactly what he's doing
07:26right now other than maybe just bring the tail down to give him that
07:29supporting strut just like that yeah again like his arms do rotate all the
07:34way around there's the hinge that goes back and forth again no possibility but
07:37I don't think it necessarily needs it either there's no possibility either for
07:40the legs but again really with the size of this guy's frame how much movement do
07:44you really necessarily need for his legs they don't hinge out there's no bend in
07:47the knee there's no bend in the foot but it makes at least more for a stable
07:51figure and I mean obviously when you're looking at the construction of these
07:53figures too the more more you add to the possibility the more the price would
07:57also go up as well there's some possibility also on the back of his tail
08:00to it I know we've already kind of covered off that and yep there's the
08:03guiding holes they're not air holes they're there just to basically guide
08:06the wire in when they're they're basically filling out the mold but again
08:09there's some possibility there too so you can rotate that all the way around
08:12I'm super super happy it's probably really hard to kind of gauge this in
08:15this review how excited I am to finally have myself a pumpkin head pumpkin head
08:19though again like will be very nicely displayed next to my Michael Myers you
08:24know again like when it comes to pumpkin heads very few and very few and
08:28far between when it comes to collectibles figures for that matter
08:30the the oldest one that probably the first one I can think of is the one we
08:32got from the movie maniacs line and I was kind of really feel like when it
08:35comes to the screen grades it's sort of now been the the baton passed online
08:40it's not a company that anymore that was doing the movie maniacs now again we've
08:43got ourselves trick-or-treat studios helming the the screen grades line but
08:47if you are one that like to really collect get heavily into collecting the
08:51like I feel like this is a very nice succession it's a succession line that
08:56basically carries on the idea of what movie makes what made the movie may X so
09:00great in the past now obviously when a guy comes to displaying this guy on the
09:04shelf notably a lot taller than both the screen grades on either side like farmer
09:08Vincent still is taller than Michael Myers but he's nowhere near the height
09:11pumpkin to clearly cast a shadow and all the other figures around him and he
09:15should be that way pumpkin has an oversized character in the movie he
09:18should also be oversized when you put in this guy on your shelf one of my
09:21favorite aspects of the screen grades is the fact that not only have they
09:23released popular characters everybody knows of Michael Myers but does
09:27everybody necessarily know a farmer Vincent from from motel hell it's those
09:31deep-cut characters that have already made the screen grades such a great line
09:34and they're not stopping any time either with what they've announced already at
09:38Toy Fair there's gonna be a lot more deep-cut characters and not that I would
09:41necessarily say that pumpkin head falls into the latter category people may have
09:45recognized the face of this creature but they may not be able to place the
09:49name of the movie pumpkin head I think has like five movies already I mean
09:52obviously it's only the first three or so even the first two that are all that
09:56good as they sort of dilute the franchise it becomes a little less
10:00interesting I was kind of felt it was the same way as children of the corn the
10:04more movies you release in the sequels of the franchise the more watered-down
10:07the property becomes pumpkin head though I think still has a lasting impression
10:11it's one of my favorite creature horror movies I tend to be one that likes
10:15slashes a little bit more but if I ever venture into watching a creature horror
10:18movie pumpkin it's pretty hard high on my list and this figure is pretty high
10:21on my list as well really execute perfectly executed from the tots crew
10:26over there well sculpted well painted and a lot more possibility than you
10:30would expect as well his lower half is more of a staction statute but I don't
10:34think really the moment you start to incorporate possibility on the tops of
10:37his thighs his knees and his ankles there has some stability issues and I
10:41would much rather have it really honestly in his shoulders and his torso
10:45and in his head and I figure has that he also has a pretty decent price going for
10:49him as well I ordered this and bought this one from
10:52entertainment earth for $59.99 a $60 figure for the size and the paint that
10:55he has definitely think it's well worth it what do you guys think of pumpkin head
10:59let me know down below in the comment section what other deep-cut characters
11:02would you like to see tots approach next for the scream greats line like I said
11:05they have a lot of ones maniac op maniac op they've actually are gonna be doing
11:10one and they're also gonna be doing a leprechaun so I can't wait to see those
11:12if you guys did enjoy this video you can do it at all and certainly throw it a
11:15like guys want to stick around for more so I hope so hit that subscribe turn on
11:19that Bell and of course come back as always thanks for watching see you guys
