It’s About Time: Melting Face Toht Candle Finally Exists

First off: Yes, yes, yes. The most obvious (yet arguably tasteless) Raiders of the Lost Ark tie-in idea since the Indiana Jones hat is actually available for sale a mere 34 years late.
However: the execution could be better, no? Wouldn’t a core of red wax inside make the melting gloriously messier? And doesn’t Toht look a bit like he’s laughing rather than screaming? Maybe a metal skull underneath all of that?
I’ve collected enough Jakks WWE figures to know that collectors will take anything…but own enough of the subsequent Mattels to know that maybe we deserve better. Good first step, though.
