Pacific Rim Gipsy Danger Action Figure



No Regret with NECA Series 1 Pacific Rim Gipsy Danger Action Figure



NECA Series 1 Pacific Rim Gipsy Danger
I like this Pacific Rim Gipsy Danger Action Figure. This figure comes with great pose-ability and is surprisingly much more durable than any other NECA figure I've gotten. The detail is great and it stands well on its own.

The prototype figures show Gipsy Danger with its hands open, the actual figure has its hands in fists which I think is a better position to have them in. I would have liked it more with interchangeable hands or articulated hands that can be opened or closed. The detail of
Pacific Rim Gipsy Danger Action Figure is great, the mechanical detail, scorching and scarring and wear and tear all looks good. The decals are painted on well and the figure overall has a realistic look and seems to be very source accurate. Aside from the hands not being more articulated (a small and minor complaint, I know) my only real complaint is the visor on the figure. Where the pilots stand to operate the Jaeger, their yellow view screen (what looks to be the eyes on the head of the Jaeger) is just painted on.
I would have preferred a clear plastic with a yellow tint attached to the head. The yellow paint they used looks a bit washed and I think would have been more successful had they made it with a clear plastic or even light up effect.

Small and minor gripes, I know, and they don't really detract from the figure. I suppose my standards for NECA are a bit high since they have put out so many this years of what I consider to be their best figures ever. For anyone excited for Pacific Rim, this
Pacific Rim Gipsy Danger Action Figure is a must have. Overall, if you really like Mechas, Kaijus or the movie Pacific Rim (I loved the movie), and you do not mind the problems mentioned above then you will not regret purchasing this Pacific Rim Gipsy Danger Action Figure!

Classic Superman Action Figure



The New 52 Classic Superman Action Figure


The New 52 Classic Superman Action Figure
This is my favorite Superman figure now in fact it’s the only Classic Superman Action Figure I own now, any way I am very happy to receive this today now just to let you know this isn’t the classic superman where he is wearing a blue suit and red underwear this particular superman is more modern looking which to me is fantastic I'm saying the classic is good at all but I do prefer more modern looking than anything but there's an old saying "Nothing can’t beat the classic's" sorry that was a little cheesy but honestly who care's. 

The New 52 classic Superman action figure is an excellent figure. The height and details are outstanding. I got this so I could have a representation of the new Superman, it stands great, sturdy. It is pretty tall about 6 inches, for an action figure, great quality in design. I would highly recommend this to any collector's for sure but get this while you still can, because I can see this figure going up for sure, I will explain articulation below.

Articulation: head is on a ball joint, knees go in out, elbow goes in out, shoulders move's 180 degrees (both), bicep’s move's left and right.

The paint application is very well done on mine except there is black paint streaming down off his forehead which looks kind of odd I don’t know if it's all the figure's but other than that looks great. I like the single box superman a little better than the box set, but what I've seen of both is very good. This Classic Superman Action Figure is good to have for the growing collection.

Deadpool Action Figure



Introducing Deadpool Action Figure Diamond Select Toys Marvel 


Deadpool Action Figure
Featuring everyone’s favorite loudmouthed, smartaleck super assassin/mercenary and the Marvel Select line expands to include one of the most irreverent characters in comic history Deadpool! It's nice and big, around 7-8" tall and very sturdily built. Deadpool Action Figure here is made of a different plastic. The plastic is of a softer feel and he's very heavy in your head, there's some heft to him. The base, floor with empty shells and a blown out wall, are made of the same material. All of it feels very well made. 

Deadpool Action Figure comes with two long swords, two Sais, two pistols and one rifle. The base is big and heavy, and very nice. The sculpting is nice and the paint is detailed. My only problem is the articulation. His head spins around but does not move up and down. His arms only bend half way at the elbows. There is no articulation at his hips, so his legs are always at the same angle (but plenty of articulation at the knees, fortunately).

This Diamond Select toy is awesome, perfect for display and great for playing with also! If you are like me and love Marvel Legends and Have a large display of them you will love this Deadpool Action Figure, he looks GREAT!!!!!! I would buy from Diamond Select again in a heartbeat, great service and a great product!
