The Sawyer family is misunderstood. They’re just people who love good BBQ. Sure, they make the food out of humans, but at least no animals are being harmed. I’m surprised that Peta hasn’t used the Texas cannibals for their advertisements.
If you’re a fan of some good roadside BBQ served up by a suspicious cook, you’ll love the butcher: Bubba Sawyer, AKA Leatherface! Sideshow is currently taking pre-orders for a new 1/6th scale Leatherface.
Based on his first appearance in the classic 1974 film The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Leatherface is decked out with his iconic yellow apron and mask. He’s ready to cut up some folks with his trusty chainsaw after he gives them a whack with his mallet, of course.

Gunnar Hansen was the actor behind the original Leatherface. He was a staple on the horror convention circuit for years before he passed in 2015. Sadly, Gunnar never returned to the role in the first three sequels or the subsequential reboots.
No other follow-up or reimagining has ever topped Tobe Hooper’s original film. It is the pinnacle of grindhouse. Gritty, raw, and unforgiving when it comes to brutality. Something studios never can reproduce.
