Legendary actor Bela Lugosi may have passed on, but his powerful mystique still lives! Now his likeness has been captured by sculptor Thomas Kuntz in a pre-painted figure entitled "King of the Vampires," as the character he will forever be remembered as -- the inscrutable Lord of the Undead!
He sleeps by day and prowls by night, luring unsuspecting guests over for dinner -- and their warm, living blood is the main course! Lugosi first donned the cape of the Count in the original Broadway stage production of Bram Stoker's eternal gothic novel, Dracula: The Dread Lord of the Undead. This cold-cast resin figure has been meticulously crafted to achieve an accurate likeness of the man who, for many, is the living embodiment of the ultimate vampire.
"I'm a big fan of classic gothic-horror movies," said sculptor Thomas Kuntz. "And Bela Lugosi is possibly the greatest horror actor ever. I wanted to get not just the look, but the feel of him in this figurine."
The Bela Lugosi "King of the Vampires" pre-painted, fully-assembled figure is 11-1/2" tall and comes complete with a full-color collectors' box. Limited to a production run of 1,000, it ships in July, at a retail price of $175. Reserve yours today -- but don't let him near any major arteries!
