Screen Rant is proud to provide an exclusive look at the brand new Leatherface (Killing Mask) figure from Sideshow Collectibles. Leatherface made his debut in Tobe Hooper’s 1974 horror masterpiece, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and has gone on has become a cultural icon.
The original The Texas Chain Saw Massacre focused on five friends, who discover a group of crazed, murderous outcasts living next door to an old family house. The group must do everything they can to survive as the chainsaw-wielding Leatherface (Gunnar Hansen), who wears a human skin mask, attacks them one by one. The film went on to spawn numerous sequels and remakes, including The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III, Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation, 2003’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, Texas Chainsaw 3D, and Leatherface. The most recent incarnation of Texas Chainsaw Massacre was just released last month on Netflix and acts as a sequel to the original film.

Alternate hands can be swapped out for a variety of posing and display options.

Sideshow previously sold a Leatherface (Deluxe) Figure with Bubba’s “Pretty Woman” and “Old Lady” masks, but it quickly sold out. You can still sign up for a waiting list for that figure, but if you want to make sure that you don’t end up on a similar waiting list for the new Leatherface (Killing Mask), you’re going to want to make sure that you grab one quick.
