The Cyclops Returns – Star Ace Toys Revives Ray Harryhausen’s Legendary Creature
The mythic beasts of Ray Harryhausen continue to captivate generations of fans, and Star Ace Toys is keeping that legacy alive with the latest entry in its celebrated ART SOFUBI Series: The Cyclops (Vintage-Stylized Soft-Vinyl Figure).
Licensed from The Ray Harryhausen Collection, this new collectible is inspired by the iconic stop-motion creature from The 7th Voyage of Sinbad (1958), a landmark in fantasy cinema that showcased Harryhausen’s unmatched artistry and imagination.
Standing approximately 10 inches (25 cm) tall, the Cyclops has been reimagined through the lens of vintage Japanese sofubi—soft vinyl toys known for their bold lines and stylized simplicity. Sculpted with a powerful stance and detailed texture, the figure exudes both the menace and charm that made the original stop-motion animation unforgettable.
Collectors will appreciate the thoughtful extras: two interchangeable heads—one with a single horn and another with dual horns, as seen in the film—and a removable club accessory. The limited articulation preserves the retro aesthetic while allowing for dynamic display options. A textured, screen-accurate paint finish brings every sculpted detail to life, paying homage to the meticulous craftsmanship of the original animation model.
This figure stands as more than a collectible—it’s a tangible connection to a cinematic legacy that continues to influence stop-motion artists around the world. As Star Ace puts it, “Myth Made Real. Vintage Soul. Heroic Presence.”
Scheduled for release in Q1 2026, the Cyclops is an essential addition for fans of classic monsters, sofubi collectors, and anyone inspired by the handmade magic of stop-motion animation.
Confront the legend. Own the Cyclops.
