With Disney Pixar's latest adventure just around the corner, the Mattel Lightyear toys are beginning to get noticed a lot more, so I thought I would grab one of the larger ships while I had the chance.
Zurg is Buzz Lightyear's adversary and in the new film takes the form of a 12' android. So the Zurg Fighter is a deal larger than the other ships in the Hyperspeed range, to fit in scale. It comes with a nicely detaild Zurg figure, at around 2" high.
The ship itself is moulded in deep violet plastic, with lime green accents and has an insectile feel to it, with overlapping armour plates and landing gear like beetle legs.
Unlike Buzz's ships, it also sports firing missiles, which is a nice theowback to classic space toys, rather than the tedious sound effects and flashing lights of the last few years.
The next wave of models is due out next month, including the vast Mothership model! To the toyshop and beyond!

It does look very organic. Almost flower like too. Like an O'Keefe painting. In Joker purple and green. Cool stuff. Will you be acquiring the Mothership?
ReplyDeleteToo big and at £65 too much for me. There are 4 other small fighters to buy yet anyway! Bill
