CHICAGO, IL (March 3, 2015): Warpo, creator of the Legends of Cthulhu retro action figure line, is thrilled to announce today, the figures are now available for sale on ThinkGeek. Legends of Cthulhu are the first action figures based on the world of H.P. Lovecraft, and include The Deep One, The Professor, The Cultist, and the Spawn of Cthulhu himself, each a 3.75”, retro-styled action figure, sold separately (MSRP $19.99).
Says James Parker, Buyer of Righteous Goods at ThinkGeek, "As a fan of the Cthulhu mythos and classic action figures, to me these figures are the perfect representation of both Fandoms. How could I resist offering our fans something that blends Lovecraft and 80's action figure goodness, all in one 3 3/4 scale package? Full of Win."

With artisan craftsmanship and detailed Method Manufacturing ™, Legends of Cthulhu figures stand easily alongside vintage action figure collections. To ensure an authentic retro look and feel, Warpo enlisted sculptor Eddy Mosqueda (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Masters of the Universe), and artist Ken Kelly (Micronauts, Manglor Mountain, KISS’ Destroyer album cover), both pioneers of the look and feel of beloved action figures from the 1970s and 1980s, to work with them to develop Legends of Cthulhu.
