Gauntlet Of Vaskkh (the rhino) was sold exclusively by Action Figure Xpress during the time when the elephants were released. The Horsemen also sold this figure if you bought all 12 Seventh Kingdom figures to save with combined shipping. If you were one of the lucky one’s to obtain him either in 2007 or the clearance sale in 2014, you’d know just how great the Seventh Kingdom line truly is.
In the beast kingdom of Animynthus the voice of the people carries significant weight. Although the kingdom is justly ruled by the Great Mother Endromedda, it is the council of Anitheres that voices the Animythean citizen’s interests. Ambassadors from each of the kingdom’s cities gather to bring their peoples’ concerns to light. The great influence and responsibility associated with representing the people also carries the burden of considerable danger. Because of this inherent danger, each ambassador has his or her own council guards.
Ramathorr is the captain of the council guards. Equipped with a myriad of blades and an unmatched skill in wielding them, Ramathorr not only leads his guards, but also trains them to become unstoppable warriors. The Anitherian guards are more than just protectors of ambassadors, they represent protection for the people of Animynthus. Because of their great skill and power the council guards are all too often the target of the mutant king Malagorr. The mighty guards are ideal subjects for Malagorr’s unnatural mutations. These once noble warriors now stand hunched and broken, mutated into grotesque distortions of Malagorr’s own hideous image.
Availability: 2007
Sculpt & Paint:
Gauntlet Of Vaskkh a highly detailed sculpt standing 9″ tall with a ton of detail and texture all through the grey skin, clothing, and gold and purple armor. He has an all new sculpted rhino head with two long husk on the tip of his nose. Some fans even consider this head sculpt to look like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles character Rocksteady from the 1980’s. Of course, the Horsemen would never attempt this due to licensing, it is still hysterical to think that Rocksteady could ever be this ruthless and cunning as Gauntlet Of Vaskkh.
His upper shoulders and legs have armor on them, his chest is wrapped up in a brown cloth, and his hips protected by a gold and brown skirt.
His weapons can be stored on his back, but the mace does not seem to fit on very well. The largest holster is wasted as he does not come with Ramathorr’s sword.
Articulation:
Ball jointed head, ball jointed shoulders, swivel biceps, hinged elbows, swivel wrists, swivel waist, swivel waist, ball jointed hips, hinged knees, swivel tail, and swivel-hinged ankles.
Accessories:
2 short axes.
Overall:
The Four Horsemen did an incredible job with The Seventh Kingdom action figure line. If you can find them, we highly suggest that you pick these up.
Highly Recommended.
