Marie Antoinette Action Figure

by Accoutrements

Product Features

• Marie Antoinette said 'Let them eat cake!'
• While the Queen of France probably expected heads to roll in her presence, odds are she didn't expect it to be her own!
• This figure has a launching head, a removable dress, and is probably the best gift you could give a fan of the French Revolution outside, perhaps, their very own guillotine.
• Stands 5 1/2-inches tall and comes packaged on an illustrated blister card.

Product Description

Marie Antoinette's reign as the Queen of France was clouded in controversy. Her extravagant lifestyle led many to believe that she was not worthy of the throne and eventually she became widely despised as the epitome of incompetence and frivolity within the French royalty. During the French Revolution, Marie was stripped of her crown, imprisoned and beheaded by guillotine in front of a cheering crowd. This 5-1/2" (14 cm) tall, hard vinyl figure features a removable head, wig and gown.

I received this action figure as a gift and was extremely excited to use it. I was so disappointed when I found that the head will NOT pop off. Sadly, I have to hold Her Royal Highness upside down and shake off her head while pressing the button. This was very disheartening and I would only recommend it to people who aren't planning to try to eject the head.

My high school French teacher had this doll in her class room. It's so much fun that my teacher has had to hide it from students. All in all it's just great fun to have around.

I bought this as a Christmas present for a friend of mine, but I got a couple minutes to play with it a bit myself. It's great - her head actually pops off. Apparently, when you have her wig on, the head just kinda falls off when you press the button, but if you take her wig off, the head launches a couple inches.
Great fun, wonderful toy.
