THE PENGUIN
The Fowl Criminal Mastermind
ORIGIN
Oswald Cobblepot grew up a shy young boy, tormented for his
appearance and love of birds. Only with his feathered friends
did he find solace from the outside world. After finally being
pushed too far, Cobblepot snapped and seeked revenge against
his tormentors using the birds as his means of retribution.
Renaming himself the Penguin, Cobblepot turned to crime; often
losing to the batman, despite his many trick umbrellas.
FIGURE STATS
The Penguin comes with a colorful umbrella. While later versions
of this figure had umbrellas that could shoot things, this one
had a retractable blade that popped out of the top. Not to mention
it was far nicer looking than other versions. If you squeezed
his legs together, however, he could deal a frightful blow with
his beloved bumbershoot.
COMMENTS
The Penguin is one of the better known Batman villains, despite
being a rather lame character. Many figures have been made,
and the mold for this one turned up again for the DC Heroes
line and repainted for the Batman Returns line. |
