This is a model of the Valerian warrior Peter VanBuskirk as depicted in the 1984 anime Galactic Patrol Lensman. This was an early animated work from the still excellent Madhouse Inc. (Paranoia Agent, Deathnote, Frieren, etc...).Activation Tag: buskirkHelpful Tags: chubby, muscular, facial hair, beard, mustache, horns, earrings, furry arms, tusks, red tunic, belt, forearm armorThe anime is adapted from Doctor E.E. Smith's formidable Lensman novels. The book this movie is based on; "Galactic Patrol" was nominated for the 1939 Retro Hugo Award. It narrowly lost out to T.H. White's amazing novel "The Sword in the Stone"... Fair enough. I adore VanBuskirks' design in the anime. PEAK BARA DADDY-BEAR!!!They really capture how he is described in the novels. From the Children of Lensman..."The Valerians were fighting furiously and were coming fast. Those two words, when applied to members of that race, mean something starkly incredible to anyone who has never seen Valerians in action. They average little less than seven feet in height; something over four hundred pounds in weight; and are muscled, boned, and sinewed against a normal gravitational force of almost three times that of Earth. VanBuskirk's weakest warrior could do, in full armor, a standing high jump of fourteen feet against one Tellurian gravity; he could handle himself and the thirty-pound monstrosity which was his space-ax with a blinding speed and a devastating efficiency literally appalling to contemplate. They are the deadliest hand-to-hand fighters ever known; and, unbelievable as it may seem to any really highly advanced intelligence, they did and still do fairly revel in that form of combat."The collected Lensman short stories and novels have passed into public domain and are available as free e-books on Project Gutenberg <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/search/?query=lensman">HERE</a>.
