For the metalheads who grew up loving action figures (and who may still love them today), we now have a Slayer related action figure!
If you aren’t familiar with Super7, they are a company that specializes in making action figures; they work with a variety of different properties, such as G.I. Joe, The Peanuts, Transformers, and many more. Among those properties though, Super7 have also created metal related action figures.
In the past, they’ve made figures based off the late Metallica bassist Cliff Burton, as well as that of Ghost‘s Papa Nihil (just to name a couple). A new addition to this metal collection is that of the minotaur featured on the cover for the Slayer album Show No Mercy.
Via a caption associated with photos of the Slayer minotaur, Super7 share the following:
“SLAAAAAAYEER! The latest made-to-order 7′ scale ULTIMATES! Figure immortalizes the iconic beast from the cover of Slayer’s game-changing 1983 debut album Show No Mercy! The heavy metal beast is brought to life with premium paint and details, interchangeable heads and hands, a soft goods cape, and its eternally recognized sword. Pre-order now at the link in our profile! @slayerbandofficial #Slayer #UltimatesFigures #Super7”

We think this Slayer minotaur looks pretty damn sweet. What do you think of this action figure? Will you be ordering yourself one? What other metal artists/mascots do you think deserve an action figure?
Below we’ve included the posts for Super7’s Cliff Burton and Papa Nihil action figures (in case you want to see what they look like). If you want to see more of their work, you can visit the official site as well.
