king kong toys

King Kong first hit the silver screen in 1933. The story of an oversized ape who escapes his captors and reeks havoc on New York City has produced one of the most iconic images of cinema history - king kong atop of the empire state building.

The original king kong film spawned sequels, remakes and spoofs and kickstarted a whole genre of new films, the monster movie. Now Peter Jackson, the director behind Lord of the Rings, has released his version of King Kong and it is sure to be a smash Chistmas hit.

Toy manufacturers have been quick of the mark and released a range of King King toys, from action figures to King Kong hands to the inevitable King Kong cuddly toy.
