Blitzway Says the Doctor Is In

All good things to those who wait…

BLITZWAY is expected to release two 1/6 scale versions of DR. HANNIBAL LECTER from MGM’S SILENCE OF THE LAMBS (1991) later this year. The first will feature everyone’s fava bean eating cannibal in a straitjacket, while the other will showcase his prisoner outfit. Both figures will stand 12 inches tall, possess a highly detailed likeness of actor ANTHONY HOPKINS in character and will show off a newly designed and developed body featuring over 30 points of articulation.
