Spawn Series 3 Vertebreaker, McFarlane Toys '95

Released in August 1995 as part of McFarlane Toys' Spawn Series 3, Vertebreaker is one of the Phlebiac Brothers — sibling demons to the Violator, dispatched by Malebolgia to ensure Spawn's defeat. What sets Vertebreaker apart is his four-armed design, each limb ending in deadly claw-like pinchers, and the shoulder-mounted missile artillery that fires projectiles as an action feature. The 16-point articulation scheme is impressive for the era and allows for aggressive, dynamic poses that suit the character's monstrous build. A standout villain figure from the early McFarlane Spawn line and a natural companion to the Violator in any display.
