Buzz-Saw

To be honest, I was never a big fan of the Silverhawks, I much preferred Rankin-Bass’ previous show, Thundercats. But I always dug the designs of the bad guys in this show.

When I saw this guy at a flea market, I had to pick him up. He is very cool.

His name is Buzz-Saw, and his gimmick is spinning arm and shoulder blades. But what makes him exceptionally cool is how the shoulder blades are activated. Pull up and then push down on his head, and the blades spin really really fast.

And lets face it, he is cool looking. He looks as if he could be one of Mazinger Z’s enemies.

He’s made out of all plastic, and is about 5" tall. He comes with a bird weapon called Shredator. Shredator looks like it has some kind of action feature, but I’m not sure how to activate it. It attaches to Buzz-Saw via a peg on the wrist.
