Did they ever do any figures for the movie?

There were some movie based figures I remember seeing them advertised in a DC comic.

Think they were only released in the US - I saw the ads in the short-lived DC comic.

Mattel did release a Jude Dredd toy of him riding his motor bike, it looked really good in fact as it was based more on the original comic than the film.
Of the two versions of Dredd I have, I prefer the Marvel one marginally more than the other...but both are nice & have good thier points

Which is the Marvel one? Is it the top one? That edges it for me - I really like the blue and yellow, and I think the helmet looks slightly better.

Hi,

sorry, the Marvel one's the second photo...both are very nice, well detailed figures & the 1st one is (as you say) a better colour match, it's the small details like the red white & blue badge on the Marvel version that just give it the edge to my eye.
Having said that, I think with figures like this, it's just like comparing different artists' drawing styles & takes on characters...every one has thier own ideas & like/dislikes on how they should be done & portrayed. Both versions are instantly recognisable as being Judge Dredd

P.S.
The other (non Marvel) version also has the original & way cooler looking slim version Mk 1 'Lagiver' pistol
Never have been a fan of the later chunky & less elegant Mk2 version...it just doesn't seem as 'Sci-fi' for me.

Better colour match? Dredd wears black.
