If you are an action figure collector like myself and are looking for something new, today is your day! Wandering Planet Toys’ has announced that their new The Prisoner, the cult classic television show starring and created by Patrick McGoohan action figure Kickstarter has gone live today. Here are the official details from Wandering Planet Toys.

The Prisoner Retro Style Action Figures Launch On Kickstarter 

In 1967 the cult classic TV series, The Prisoner burst onto the screen. The series, about an unnamed British intelligence agent who awakes to find himself trapped in an idyllic seaside village, was not only an instant hit with viewers at the time, it went on to be watched and re-watched obsessively by fans, quickly gaining cult status. And while there have been several collectibles released over the decades, The Prisoner has never received a line of officially licensed action figures… until now. Wandering Planet Toys, appointed by ITV Studios, will bring to life 4-inch retro-style action figures that celebrate Patrick McGoohan’s brilliant series.

NUMBER 6 – FIRST EDITION

The Prisoner

“I am not a number! I’m an action figure of a free man!” We’re launching Wave 1 with “NUMBER 6” himself, as played by series creator, writer and director Patrick McGoohan. This figure in McGoohan’s likeness, features the iconic black jacket with white piping, and the 6 badge.

NUMBER 6 – KICKSTARTER EXCLUSIVE “ARRIVAL” EDITION 

This NUMBER 6 variation features an all-black outfit, representing McGoohan’s character as seen in the episode “The Arrival” and also in the opening credit sequence of each episode. It is an exclusive to this Kickstarter Campaign and will not be released anywhere else.

NUMBER 6 – BEACH ESCAPE EDITION (No badge on lapel)

The Prisoner

This version of Number 6 is a variant of the First Edition figure, but WITHOUT the #6 badge, because he has defiantly refused to put it on. This edition features a special cardback featuring the icon moment of Number 6 attempts escape on the Village’s beachfront. 

NUMBER 6 – “CHECKMATE”  EDITION 

This edition of NUMBER 6 figure sports the multi-colored cloak worn in during the living chess game in the episode “Checkmate” complete with the chess staff, as seen in the series. 

NUMBER 6 – CARDED 4 FIGURE BUNDLE 

The Prisoner

This reward tier includes all four carded versions of NUMBER 6 including the “Arrival” variant only available on Kickstarter. 

NUMBER 6 – LIMITED EDITION ROVER PACKAGE   

The Prisoner

No discussion of THE PRISONER is complete without mention of the Village’s spherical guardian and menace, ROVER. In order to evoke the iconic moment of NUMBER 6 pushed up against the gelatinous side of the guardian, we’ve created a Limited Edition plastic packaging unit depicting our hero in the belly of the beast. This package is a resealable clamshell so the figure can be removed for display, then reinserted. 

EPISODE SETS

In addition to the single carded figures, we’re excited to offer two figure episode sets themed after particular fan favorite episodes, complete with accessories specific to the episodes.

 “FREE FOR ALL” TWO-PACK SET 

The Prisoner

This 2-figure set features both NUMBER 6 and NUMBER 2 (as played by Eric Portman, “Everest, I presume…”). The accessories include NUMBER 6’s hat, bullhorn and election poster from the episode, as well as phones from NUMBER 2’s office.

“SCHIZOID MAN” TWO-PACK SET  

This 2-figure set features both NUMBER 6 as well as his doppelganger NUMBER 12 (also played by Patrick McGoohan, but with a color-reverse white jacket with black piping). The accessories include two fencing foils, two fencing helmets, and two marksman pistols, as well as miniature versions of NUMBER 24’s psychic testing “Zener cards”, so that you can hold your own contest to determine which figure is the real NUMBER 6.
