Jacob Black Twilight Action
Figure – People Are Howling For This Toy
With the release of the new Twilight movie, New Moon, Jacob
Black gets his day in the sun (well, the moon anyway). New Moon
is the second book in the series and the second film to be
made. Although the central theme of the books/movies is the
relationship between Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, this
book/movie focuses on a subplot – the relationship between
Bella and Jacob. Jacob has a few secrets about himself too and
we find out about them in the movie. Jacob uses his special
skills to protect Bella and their relationship develops as a
result (and also because Edward has moved away).
The Jacob Black Twilight action
figure is made by NECA, that seem to specialize
exclusively in Twilight merchandise. Most of the products they
put out are officially licensed goods by Summit Entertainment
(the makers of the Twilight movies).
The NECA action figure is a fairly accurate representation
of the character in the move. It stands 7 inches tall. The face
is not totally accurate but is not a bad representation of the
actor given the size of the figure. He wears clothing that the
character wears in the movie. He has jointed shoulders so that
the arms can move up and down.

Background on Jacob Black.
Jacob Black features in all the books and movies in the
Twilight series. He is originally a family friend of Bella Swan
and helps her settle into the Forks area at the beginning of
the books. He is described as a Native American, belonging to
the Quileute tribe. The second book/movie gives him far more
attention. In this book, we learn that he is actually a
shapeshifter that can change into a werewolf at will. There are
other werewolves in the area and they go around in a pack
fighting vampires.
Jacob develops a crush for Bella during the first movie. In
the second, the pair get closer and it tells the story of how
Jacob tries to make Bella love him. Jacob Black is portrayed by
Taylor Lautner in the New Moon.
