Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Evil-Half Orc Assassin
About This Vintage Toy
In the world of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons, Zarak is an Evil-Half Orc Assassin. This assassin’s most used evil tool is a poisoned dagger often used to stab his unsuspecting victim in the dark quietly. Zarak is a maters of disguise and a highly skilled trained thief. It is commonly known throughout the D&D realm the most feared assassin is a half-human-half orc one. Half-orcs are by far the most feared of enemies in the dungeons and villages of the D&D fantasy world. What makes Zarak do dangerous is his strength and cunning are that of a vile monster. With his intelligence and appearance as a human, he can deceptively manipulate his environment. As a traditional mercenary, Zarak only wishes to profit from assassination after assassination, and this being can often appear harmless or bold and brave. The action figure was produced as an original standard figure and later a Battle Mattic action figure that featured spring-activated arm movement.
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 roleplaying game. The LJN Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Zarak action figure offered 5 points of articulation with the hips, shoulders, and neck. The Zarak action figure featured a three and three-quarter-inch size format. However, it was slightly smaller due to the Half-Orc nature of his character.
