Carrion Crawler Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (LJN)The Crawler is one of those monsters that just keeps getting redesigned. We've seen everything from giant cutworms with tendrils to a lumpy, grinning caterpillar with a full-on tentacle beard. This one is just the goofy 1e art in three dimensions, which really underlines the lack of an art budget back then. Is it still fun, though? You betcha! The silly-looking cartoon caterpillar segments actually help with the poseability of the body, which would've been uselessly stiff otherwise. The funny little feet help with stability in climbing poses. A two-color airbrush job keeps things colorful and poisonous-looking, and the head is emotionless and just plain strange. I take slight issue with the face tendrils, which just kind of fan out in a rigid pose, but between the material and the molding process, this was probably the best route. Poseability is actually quite good; the wires feel nice and strong, and the rubber naturally flexes in all the right places. The pose from the art is quite easy to do, as is just about anything else. As action figures go, this isn't the best choice. But for a bendy toy of 40-year-old RPG art, it's just aces. I split the difference on the rating to stay objective. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
