In 1983, movie fans worldwide were introduced to Tony Montana, the ruthless Cuban drug lord also known as Scarface. Played by Al Pacino, Scarface began as a lowly dishwasher that quickly proved that nothing would stand in his way to become the king of the world’s largest drug slinging criminal empire. His ruthless personality and over-the-top personality made Scarface an instant classic that has been ingrained in the American psyche ever since the release of the movie.
Mezco Toyz 10-Inch Stylized Scarface Action FiguresIn 1994,
Mezco Toyz released a set of 10-inch
Scarface action figures to immortalize Tony Montana in plastic. This series of stylized Mezco Scarface action figures included four different figures of Scarface. Each of the figures in the ten inch series include a shared body sculpt, but the head sculpts, accessories and clothing differentiate the figures from each other. These particular Scarface figures are highly stylized emphasizing different emotions and characteristics on the face of Scarface. The four Scarface action figures in the Mezco Toyz ten inch action figure series include the Enforcer, the Player, the Runner, and the Rise.
Two of the stylized ten inch Scarface figures have been released by Mezco as talking figures. The Fall and the Player Scarface action figures were given sound chips by Mezco after the original release of the ten inch figures. Each of these figures recites nine different lines from the Scarface movie.
Realistic 7-inch Scarface Action FiguresIn addition to the stylized ten inch
Scarface action figures, Mezco Toyz has also produced a seven inch tall series of more realistic Scarface figures that included three figures, the Player (blue suit), The Player (white suit), and The Fall (black suit). This series also includes 3 variant exclusive figures that were only available from the Mezco Direct online store…

For variant figure collectors, Mezco added two variant figures to the realistic seven inch figures to keep things interesting. Variants of the Scarface “The Player” figures in the blue and white suit are also exclusively available through the Mezco Direct online store. The variants include alternate head sculpts on the figures.
Explicit Talking 8-inch Scarface FiguresTwo new figures with twist were added to the Mezco Scarface action figure line in late 2006. These 8-inch figures featured new sculpts and a sound chip to make the figures talk. The twist on these figures is that the figures say some very explicit lines from the movie. They are not for kids. In addition to the new sound chips, these are brand new figures. The new sculpts are based on the Scarface movie posters. The figures stand eight inches tall (nine inches with the plastic sound base) and come packaged in a clear plastic tube. The eight inch Scarface action figures have very little movement. The figures only have points of articulation at the shoulders and waist. The two figures in this series are the same except that there is a white suit and a blue suit version.
