From the Archives: Sir Robin

Recommended video: Monty Python and the Holy Grail – The Tale of Brave Sir Robin

And now for something completely different on this #SomethingElseSunday from the archives, we’ve got the Diamond Select Monty Python and the Holy Grail Sir Robin!

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the Holy Grail screening in Los Angeles, with tomorrow marking 50 years since the film opened to the public in the United States. To commemorate the occasion, the film is being shown in select theaters next week as a Fathom Event. See local listings.

This figure accurately captures the likeness of 1970s-era Eric Idle and includes a comically large shield. His “stand” doesn’t hold the figure well, but it plays several humorous lines from the film when the grail-shaped button is pressed.

“When danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.”
