Bowmarc
Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Good Crusader
About This Vintage Toy
In the world of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, Bowmarc, the Good Crusader, is a great and noble champion of battle. He proudly fights on the side of good and can never change to evil, or he will lose his special powers. All evildoers fear Bowmarc and his “Holy Sword” in the D&D realm. Bowmarc is often known to fight battles alone; however, he is usually found leading an army of good crusaders to win the fight against evil. The action figure included a Battleax, shield, and sword that could be sheathed from a hook hanging from his belt. Like all three-quarter-inch scaled action figures made available in wave 2, Bowmarc also featured a “Battle-Matic” action function. A secret lever on the figure back would make the action figures move, simulating animated battle.
Many LJN Advanced Dungeons & Dragons action figures featured a three and three-quarter-inch format similar to other competitors’ popular toy lines of the 80s. However, a small number of produced action figures in this toyline were disproportionate in standard consistent action figure size to represent the accuracy of the DND role-playing game. The LJN Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Bowmarc action figure offered 5 points of articulation with the hips, shoulders, and neck. The Bowmarc action figure featured a three and three-quarter-inch size format.
