Who is The Black Knight From Monty Python & the Holy Grail

JOHN CLEESE AS THE BLACK KNIGHT 12 Inch Monty Python and the Holy Grail 2002 Sideshow Toy Collectible Action Figure

Amazon Price: (as of 05/30/2012)

The Black Knight stands 12 inches tall and has an authentic replica helm and costume. The figure has both high articulation as well as detachable limbs, revealing bloody stumps. Comes with a two-handed sword and a figure display stand. The Black Knight was sculpted by Jared Chapman and was released by SideShow Toy as part of a limited series of 10,000. The packaging of the first batch of Sideshow's Holy Grail action figures was a window box, although Sideshow has now returned to their "older" style of packaging, with the fifth panel flap. (Collectors prefer the flap, retailers prefer the window box. Sideshow's move to limited editions and to the specialty market allows them to cater more to collectors and to return to the sturdier boxes with flaps.) The front flap has the movie poster as the backdrop, with the character name added to the center. For the Black Knight, the box has "blood" spatters all over, and for the Dead Collector, this effect is created with tremendous globs of "mud." The blood and mud are glossy, which sets them apart from the rest of the printing on the box. Also done in gloss are small bits of "scotch tape" which appear to be attaching various notes to the boxes. The backs of the packages list design credits for the action figures. From "portraits sculpted by" all the way down to "limb gathering by," the boxes are filled with little bits of such Pythonesque humor. Even the twist tie warnings on the bottoms are written in a Python tone.

Our favorite black knight is back and this time ready to defend your feet to the bloody end. One thing must be said, though ignorant of pain and the tide of battle, the Black Knight would not surrender his post at any cost and, with a bit more intellect, may have made an excellent addition to the Knights of the Round.

A symbol of darkness rivaling the iniquity of the Knight Of Ni Hat, the Black Knight Plush Helmet is a wearable helmet. Iron-black and bolt-studded, blunt-oblong, the helmet features a broad visor slot---a feature offering the type of peripheral range as to hopefully avoid dismembered appendages. This grim helmet was once worn by the terrible Black Knight, a former adversary of noble King Arthur! Arthur arrives just in time to watch the Black Knight defeat the Green Knight. Stirred by the Black Knightâ?TMs lethal prowess, Arthur invites the Black Knight to join the Knights of the Round Table. Contemptuously, the Black Knight disregards the offer, and then reacts offensively when Arthur attempts to cross the bridge. Reluctantly, Arthur is drawn into a duel with the Black Knight. The Black Knight remains undeterred even when Arthur begins to dismember him. All part of the plan. Believing the duel to be over, Arthur reverses his broadsword and kneels reverently---only to be kicked in the head by his disdainful adversary. Secure in the knowledge that he has now drawn his opponent within striking distance, the Black Knight continues the fight, sensing the completion of his cunning strategy as Arthur chops away his one remaining legâ?¦
