ToyBiz 10" Ghost Rider, Deluxe Edition (1995)

Just in time for Halloween I recieved my 10" Ghost Rider by ToyBiz (1995)! Hooray!! He is considerably bulkier and more heavy-duty than the other 10" ToyBiz figures I have already, Moon Knight from the Marvel Universe Series (1997) and Silver Surfer from the Fantastic Four Series (1994). The chain strapped across his chest is removable, and appears to be his "accessory" advertised on the box- the five figures from the Ghost Rider Series pictured on the back don't really show any weapons or anything ??? Ghost Rider has a glow-in-the-dark head and spiked belt I HAVE tested! Spooky! The two "flaming" collar pieces are separate and swivel around his head independently- an interesting feature. I must say I don't know a thing about this Marvel character, and bout him only for his badass looks and attractive price, $7.99 (price included shipping). What a FUN toy!

Johnny Blaze made a deal with arch demon Mephisto in order to save his mentor's life, but his soul was accidentally fused with the entity Zarathos, allowing Blaze to turn his flesh into hellfire and shoot fireballs from his hands... can you believe that?? He also rides on a supernatural motorcycle that wields the "Spirit of Vengeance", if the flaming skull head wasn't frightening enough! Damn! Nicholas Cage portrayed the character in the 2007 film Ghost Rider, which I vaguely remember hearing about... I still haven't seen the Iron Man movies with Robert Downey Jr. either, believe it or not.
