From Executive Replicas, the company that recently announced a 12″ Stan Lee doll, comes what would seem to be a no-brainer of a line – 12-inch figures based on Zenescope’s busty, scantily clad reinterpretations of fairy tale characters. Each one features a seamless outer skin over an articulated, stainless steel skeleton, and ironically, I think this is one case where business will do well by being full of busts. Up first? Liesel Van Helsing, who features the additional selling feature of being steampunk.
The daughter of the famed vampire slayer has never looked so good or lifelike as she comes dressed in her signature outfit of fishnets and trenchcoat with steampunk accents for optimum hunting. Ready to drive a stake into every black vampire heart, the figure offers a multitude of poses and comes packaged with her signature weapons.
She’ll retail for around $160, with preorders starting in June and fulfillment in July. Two more detailed pics are below…
