Todd McFarlane Spawn Kickstarter

Todd McFarlane's Spawn Kickstarter has gone live, and met its $80k goal in just a few minutes. As I write this the pledges sit at $500k.


You can visit the Kickstarter page yourself to get full details, but in summary the team are taking their original 1995 Spawn 5-inch figures and updating them to the 7-inch format. They will have double the articulation and will include a number of added extras depending on your pledge.


There are three figures - Classic Spawn, Modern Spawn and an unpainted Artist Proof Spawn. Each of these can be bought as a base figure with a pledge of $40 (£32). Or you can include a signed Todd McFarlane plate and a bonus weapon with the figures for $80 (£64). Both versions come with a comic book. They are packed in a resealable clamshell, then a box and finally an outer slipcover.



If you want all three figures in a presentation pack, there is a $160 (£128) level for all three figures and with this you also get some additional head options - an Al Simmons head and a Screaming Spawn Head. This pack includes the Todd McFarlane signature.




Shipping is worldwide, so UK collectors are covered. Single figure delivery to UK is $33 (£26.49) with the 3-pack at $60 (£48). That does make the figures quite cost restricted for UK fans.


Just to ensure UK collectors have all the facts...

Import tax and VAT likely be payable on arrival in the UK, this will be 20% of the goods and if you go over £135 (more than 3 figures) another 2.5% Customs Duty. Single figure would therefore go from £32 to around £40 - and you will likely have an admin charge too from the carrier of between £8 and £15.


All prices are accurate as of 9th April 2020 via Google Currency Conversion

About Me : As a child of the 70's and 80's I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force) and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licences - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
