18" Talking Willy Wonka

Finally I got time to take pictures and update this blog. This time it's the movie Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I would say that this movie isn't so great for collecting because it is not animation and most of the figures of real people are quite dumb looking. As the collectible items I prefer more those made from animations. Anyways I still love the movie.
        18" Talking Willy Wonka by NECA in 2005. His cane is separate and you can move his hands and legs. The figure is made really well and the details are wonderful. Only downside is that he doesn't come with a stand and because his feet are posed like they are he is quite prone to falling over.
        I bought this via huuto.net from another collector and this was a great find since I got it for a bargain with some other items.


He also speaks lines from the movie such as:

• "The waterfall is most important, mixes the chocolate, churns it out, makes it light and frothy."
• "By the way, no other factory in the world mixes its chocolate by waterfall, my dear children."
• "Once again you really shouldn't mumble cause its kinda startin' to bum me out."
