TBLeague Purgatori 1/12 Scale Action Figure (PL2019-159)

What? No topic devoted to the TBLeague 1:12 scale Purgatori figure?

Well... we need to remedy that oversight!

Nice work. My favorite scene was with the M&Ms.

That are some great scenes you put them in. The one with the M&M looks a bit like one of those ball pits for kids. I thought that was very funny.

Great pictures! Very creative! Amazing how two of them immediately look... better somehow. ^^

And you're so right! I did post some photos in another thread, but for the sake of keeping it all together I'll post them again here:



Click to enlarge. And sorry for the boring pose.

Very nice! I especially like the Debbil Music photo.

Some great pics, very nicely posed.

Pretty fun setups. Them jamming out was great.

They better stay out of the M&Ms if they want to keep wearing those costumes!

They are lovely little devils.

Soft! What light through yonder window breaks?

Hah! Nice!
Beautiful backdrop! And nice shadow play there. Get's you thinking... What's going on there?!

Thanks! The "prompt" on a doll forum challenge was "shadows."

I have an "alternate take" showing only the silhouette and shadows:

It is very artistic, especially the alternate take.

Agreed! I actually like the alternate shot even more.

The 1/12-scale TBLeague / Executive Replicas Purgatori figure is available for pre-order at the Big Bad Toy Store site, with an estimated (re)release date of Q1 2023:

Get 'em while they're hot!

Arrgh. I was hoping to make my money back when selling Purgi, but that is impossible if they keep re-releasing her! (Happy for all those who missed out.)

These action figures being limited collector items is actually a big factor in why I allow myself to spend so much money on these figures.

Note to self: When other manufacturers are involved, TBLeague figures may get rereleases, so I'd better be okay with saying goodbye to that money for good.

Oh, c'mon, you don't want to sell Purgi! She's the best 1/12 TBLeague figure they've released!

Vampi is also being re-issued: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/124014

Hmmm. I saw the $$$ and sold mine last year, but I may be tempted to buy her back at $90.

It’s too bad 1/12 kind of faded away after that blitz of releases in 2020/2021. This is really my preferred scale. I find them to be a lot less of a hassle in general than their 1/6 counterparts, and 1/6 figures are getting ridiculously expensive.

The figure looks cool. I'm hoping they do a Chastity from Chaos comics. I have a six inch from about 20 years ago, I would like an update.

Haha! Yes, I do actually. She's been in the box for months. She just doesn't fit in with the rest. But looking at these prices I might keep her after all, if only as a drawing reference. The wings are good for that.

Completely agree. Smaller budget, less space. I'm sure we'll get a new wave! There was a long break before they came with that barrage of new 1/12 releases last time.

Totally looks like that would be a typical TBL figure. But they've not been working on licensed stuff for a while so I wouldn't hold my breath. At least in 1/6 she would be pretty easy to create. There are so many leather outfits out there!

That's a good idea. The problem is finding the right head. Since my standards for bodies are different a meduim bust body will work for the body. Her costume has changed a little over the years so I can find something similar.

Here's the Chasitity figure I have. I think I found an ebay seller that fulfill most of the parts, I'll adjust the head and leather clothing to fit in with different pictures.

I've decided to buy some test clothing while I look up more clothing and the right looks to make Chasity.



I'm thinking I might start a post for making this figure again.

Snatched her after a re-release.
I have no attachment to the character, and she doesn't really fit into any theme in my collection.
And yet... Beautiful demon girl. On a seamless body. With wings.

I was actually pleasantly surprised by her facial expression. She didn't seem that stern on promo pics.


Wings are impressive (however anatomically non-sensical they may be), with this wingspan she'll have problems finding space on the shelf. But maybe those are not her problems...


But it's great that she comes with a folded pair


However, I also quite like Annalise's idea of using Vampirella's cloak so I've got one parted out:


But anyway, now I've got her, maybe she'll visit other characters in visions and dreams. And if not, she'll definitely look unique on the shelf.

I'm happy to see Purgatori in action again! It's such a fun little demon figure!

Nice pic with the outstretched wings. Is that a grafitti-covered urban setting in the background?
