To be honest, I’ve never been a huge fan of Greg “Craola” Simkins’ Cap’n Rotnclaw and Keel Haul Cleg PVC vinyl figures produced by STRANGEco. They are just a little too abstract for my taste. But when I heard STRANGEco would be releasing a super secret, limited edition Keel Haul Cleg colorway at Craola’s “It Wanders West” show at Gallery 1988 in Los Angeles last Thursday, I knew I was going to have to get one. Not because red is my favorite color, but because this particular colorway has Keel Haul Cleg painted as one of my all time favorite DC super heroes, The Flash.
While the red and yellow color scheme looks good on the Keel Haul Cleg figure, The Blot’s favorite part has to be The Flash’s logo on its chest. I think the Red colorway actually makes Keel Haul Cleg look fast, even if he does run around on crab legs. The Keel Haul Cleg Red colorway is going to look very sweet next to my other comic book inspired designer vinyl figures.
Keel Haul Cleg is available now on a first come, first serve basis from G1988 for $60 each. The figure is 7 inches tall and is limited to just 300 figures.
