I've always loved horror and monsters as far back as I can remember, and the various movies of Ray Harryhousen were favorites of mine. I could watch Sinbad or Jason fend off various creatures or hordes of the undead, then pop the Castlevania cartridge into my NES and fight those same monsters myself.

So for those of you with similar interests, check out Sci-Fi Revoltech's twentieth figure: a skeleton warrior from Jason and the Argonauts.

This figure may not be an official CV product, but he fits in with the spirit of Castlevania perfectly. Check out my article if you're interested in an in-depth review.

But I can tell you right now, between the detailed sculpt and extensive articulation, this is the best skeleton figure I've ever seen. And who more than the CV community can appreciate a good evil skeleton, so I thought I'd share it with you all.

If you have any questions or would like a specific picture taken, just let me know.

You bought that custom figure that was on ebay a while back? How did that look in person?

It looks pretty good, although I wish Gabriel had his hood that's seen in the game. The Combat Cross is long as hell, and the figure is taller than the other CV figures.

How big is this skeleton figure anyways? I try to keep my customs in the same size as the official figures, so if this is about the same size that would be awesome.

He's only about five and a half inches tall, so he doesn't fit in with the NECA figures. But, he does fit in with those Japanese arcade prize figures.

That skeleton looks a little intimidated by Simon for some reason.
