Inigo is packed with his sword (with additional blood smears) and a display stand. Also, notably, the figure doesn’t have the side-eye, and that certainly is an improvement. They blood splatters actually match up with the injuries in the film pretty well, and the blood on the hand in particular looks pretty convincing. Inigo’s paint work takes the set-up on the first figure, and adds the blood from his injuries. It’s a good sculpt, perhaps not as strong a likeness as the first one, but still with enough of a vibe of Mandy Patinkin to be recognizable. It fits the mid-battle look, and changes up his look enough to make him more noticeably different from the first release.
The new head trades out the more calm and composed expression from the first release for a more intense, teeth-gritting expression.

Inigo’s sculpt was the best of the Series 1 figures, and his appearance remains fairly similar throughout, so it’s a good re-use. Almost all of Inigo’s sculpt is a re-use from the Series 1 release, with only the head sculpt changing. The figure stands a little over 7 inches tall and he has 35 points of articulation. That said, he’s again another figure that does alright as a piece on his own. And, like Buttercup, Inigo’s natural counterpart, Count Rugen, isn’t likely to get made. He’s specifically based on Inigo’s injured appearance post final duel. He joins Buttercup as the other figure based on the end of the film, though they are notably two characters that have no real interactions, especially at the end of the film. Inigo Montoya (Bloodied) is the final figure in Series 2 of The Princess Bride line from McFarlane. And, I’m gonna take a look at that variant today! THE FIGURE ITSELF Fezzik’s variant was just not enough for me to justify spending the extra $40 to get him, but I was able to get on board with the Inigo variant. Let’s make the most of it, shall we? With variants for Westley and Buttercup already on the books, that just leaves Fezzik and Inigo.

So what was the "reunion scene" that you would get if you wrote to the publisher or visited the website?
