Customer Reviews of Clive Barker's "Infernal Parade" Figure: The Sabbaticus Bleb & Heeler

Look's like the Sabbaticus has swallowed Heeler again...
Clive Barker's "Infernal Parade" is a 2004 collaboration between the horror writer-director and McFarlane toys, which explains exactly why these action figures are not intended for children 17 and younger. Since Barker first created Pin-head and the rest of the Cenobites in "Hellraiser" and Todd McFarlane came up with "Spawn," the two have collaborated on two "Tortured Souls" series of action figures. This time the idea of the "Infernal Parade" is that each of the six figures in this series shows what happens behind the curtain when the circus comes to town. <

>The Sabbaticus, Bleb & Heeler are a trio of figures, in a manner of speaking. The Sabbaticus is a monstrous horned beast, 6 inches tail and 5 inches long, whose bones have sharp spurs that protrude through his hairy flesh while his long tail has a series of bony spikes as well. Bleb is only 3 inches tall, standing on his stool in his blue jacket, and is making an effort to retrieve Heeler, who has already been digested by the Sabbaticus. Most of the publicity photographs of the Infernal Parade series are taken under a yellow light, that really heightens their dramatic look, so be prepared for them not to look as cool in a white light. <

>The articulation of the figures is rather limited, with Bleb having a neck joint and the Sabbaticus offering a fully bendable tail to go along with front arm joints. This is taking place on the fully detailed rolling cart that attaches to the others in this series in order to form the "Infernal Parade" of the title. Each package also contains part of a brand new Clive Barker short-story, available no place else, that fleshes out each figure, so to speak. If you get all six figures then you get the complete story. In addition to the Sabbaticus there is Bethany Bled, Tom Requiem, Mary Slaughter, the Golem Elijah, and the Family of Freaks. Collect them all and make up your own twisted little tales of the "Infernal Parade."
