It doesn’t make sense but in my heart I was hoping to scroll down further and find out there’s a figure double pack of Bob Hoskins and Jet Li from Unleashed, complete with a chain and collar action.
I have such conflicted feelings about Hook: It was a good movie that SHOULD have been a great movie…it was supposed to be a timeless epic, the kind of movie that defines the cinema of its era. And because so much was expected of it, when it turned out to be decent rather than phenomenal the public was so disappointed that the film’s good qualities were forgotten in favor of remembering it as one of Hollywood’s most infamous bombs and Spielberg’s biggest failure since 1941 (which I loved as a kid❤️)
I actually had multiple Hook figures, for some God only knows reason. Gets taller Captain Hook was actually a pretty decent toy, except only his arms moved and as you can see in the pics above, when he got taller his bloomers showed which was confusing as a child. I also had the swashbuckling Pan, which was the regular Pan, but dressed in something sort of resembling pirate gear and he’d do little finesses with his sword when you turned the dial on his back.
