Chucky Good Guy Stylized Roto Figure

Chucky Good Guy Stylized Roto Figure. Who wants to play? Chucky does, but you may not like his game.

Every detail has been captured; from his classic coveralls to the unique imprint of the soles on his sneakers. From his glistening, insane eyes, and his sneering lips, to his shocking red hair, this is Chucky at his most iconic.  He's not fully human, but he is fully insane!
