Frankie “The Timebandit” is a gangster superhero. He can travel through time, stop time, and is the supreme bandit of time.  His powerful “time travel” watches allow him to break the space-time continuum in order to fight evil and tyranny.  He seeks out others who have potential for “time travel” who also possess gangster superpowers of their own.  He slings watches to these select few.  They become the chosen ones who will join to form a legue of time traveling, gangster superheroes known as “TimeBandits”.

In addition to Frankie “The TIMEBANDIT”, we are currently in production on the TIMEBANDITS Comic (release, Fall of 2011). Pre-production has also started on a range of TIMEBANDITS Toys based on the characters from our comic book.

 

REVIEW

Stats:
Artist: Jonathan Stephens
Sculpted by: David Arshawsky
Height: 9” tall
Accessories: Fedora hat & briefcase

Packaging:
Frankie comes packaged in a window-front box that features background information on the character. The back face of the box, features a large illustration of Frankie. Frankie is neatly packed in form fitting plastic and is easily viewable from within.

Vinyl:
Quite an awesome sculpt, with alot of detail and an interesting pose.  Frankie is a great character; created from the TimeBandits logo, and modelled on a 1930′s mobster. He bears

Downsides:
The only downside to this piece is that the paint could’ve been just that little bit sharper. There are areas which are great and have fine detail such as the face but then other others are a little fuzzy or uneven. It’s a shame that there are paint faults as other than that the figure is great.

Definitely worth adding to your collection if you’re a fan of mobster characters or are familiar with the TimeBandits brand.  Especially worth picking up if you’re into TimeBandits watches as there’s currently a deal which allows you to pickup a watch and Frankie “The TimeBandit” for $54.95 (approx £35).
