John Belushi Mini???

[shaylon]

I was surfing Ebay earlier in the Want it Now section, hoping that someone would want my lint ball collection, when I saw this post.

From Ebay Looking for a D&D miniature that I believe was a parody of John Belushi's samurai character on Saturday Night Live. The figure holds two swords and holds a cigar in the corner of his mouth. I do not remember the company that produced it, but I had originally bought one in the early 1990's (recently lost it at a gaming convention).End from Ebay

Anyone know what this is? I would be interested in getting one if I could, so I thought I would put this out to ENWorld as I am sure there are some of you out here who know about this.

Any help in locating one or clarification would be appreciated!

Didn't McFarlane Toys make this thing - as well as a few other SNL action figures?

It wasn't D&D mini-sized, but more "Spawn-Toy" sized, IIRC.

Yeah, there were a few other SNL figures. I've actually got the Samurai Chef one. Looks great on the desk next to a Stormtrooper and Sauron.

Sounds like a figure in the old Ral Partha Imports line, I think from the mid 1980's. Another figure they put out at about the same time was The Dwarf With No Name, a dwarven version of Clint Eastwood.

Found it. Ral Partha had it in their Weird Fantasy line: WF-7 Samurai Night Fever.
Here is a link.

Funny, I might have to get one!

And if you wish to see the Dwarf With No Name, here is a painted one.

Was that that one in the Knights of The Dinner Table cartoon?

I always liked the Grateful Undead, and the three headed ogre (Larry, Mo, & Curly)
