Mammoth Figure Just Like the Real Thing

This is probably the best made mammoth I have seen for the price. The other reviews were right--it is very realistic and has a lot of weight to it. I was so impressed that I'm considering having a pendant made from the outline of it. It's hard to find mammoth figures anyway, let alone well-made ones. This is an EXCELLENT representation of an extinct species.

A fine representation of Godzilla from "Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: All Monsters Attack" from 2001.  This was my favorite design of the Millennium series of Godzilla films.  I loved how he was purposely made bigger and scarier than previous incarnations, including the all-white eyes.

The figure has a great sculpt and paint job, and the articulation is second to none.  I've not had loose joint problems that others have reported.  There are no accessories, which is pretty typical of the Godzilla figures in the MonsterArts line. For the price, it would be nice to have at least a breath ray-effect.  The figure is solid and stable enough that it doesn't require a base or stand, which is nice.  A very welcome addition to my collection.  However, like all other MonsterArts and FiguArts figures, this is made for the older collector - it will not survive a little kid playing with it.

It's difficult to convey the size of this thing even in pictures: you have to see the figure for yourself. I was expecting big, but when the figure arrived I was taken aback at how massive the Hulk is. Meaty, hefty, and able to stand tall, it's a great figure with a couple of minor downsides. The detailing on the pants and the muscles could have been more defined; I have a couple older Hulks with more striations and denim lines, but that's a minor quibble. The other quibble is that the durability is suspect with the hip joints; I'm glad I read another review to be careful with them, otherwise I might have torn off the left leg right from the start. Be gentle with Hulk's hips, and the rest of the toy is rock solid. The paint job is slightly iffy in touches, but I'm going to stop nitpicking. Overall, this toy is worth the price of admission for collectors, stands upright and looks beefy, and is an excellent addition for the Hulk fan at home.

I bought this statue from a local comic book store and am very happy with this item. The statue is highly detailed and a great collectible. It is not a toy and can break easily because it is made out of cold-cast porcelain, so I would only recommend this statue to collectors.

The statue has a slight difference to it than the marketing images shown online of it. The statue does not have separations/gaps between the arm joints and legs as seen in some of the images. The final product has all of the joints fully fused--which is much better and complete. The other difference that I've noticed is that the paint on Batman's utility belt is a darker yellow-gold than in the marketing images and the bat logo on Batman's chest is not a glossy black like in the pictures.

When I pre-ordered the statue I had a hard time deciding between the Batman and Joker statues. After buying the Batman statue and seeing pictures of the final Joker statue, I am so glad I made the choice of buying the Batman statue. The final Joker statue looks much different than the marketing pictures. The Joker statue does not look like Heath Ledger, has a more exaggerated ovular head than the marketing images, and has a terrible paint job, especially in comparison to it's marketing images. If you're looking to collect a Heath Ledger Joker figure, I would recommend getting your hands on the 1:6 scale figure, also designed by Kolby Jukes, which has a much better likeness to Heath Ledger, real fabric for the clothing, and detailed movie-specific items.

Overall, the final Dark Knight Batman statue is really fantastic and shows off the new bat-suit in a unique way with Batman in mid-flight and the cape as the statue's base. I highly recommend this statue.

After watching some reviews on YouTube I decided to get this figure. I have no regrets after opening the box and examining the figure up close. I liked that the figure comes with a second set of hands and a blade as seen in the film. You can remove the cloak she wears and use the final accessory that snaps to her back. The figure stands 9 inches and a number of points of articulation.

I was looking for a nice miniature of a giant prehistoric bird to use for roleplaying games like D&D. I took a chance on this figure because Safari's pieces get a lot of good reviews. I was curious to see if this particular miniature would be of an appropriate size when compared to 25/28mm figures, which are pretty standard for roleplaying games. I'm happy to say it looks to be just about right when sized up next to a game miniature, perhaps just a tad oversized. But that "tad" doesn't make it unusable at all, and it should look impressive thrown down onto a game table or battlemat.

The sculpt and paint job are very nice. It stands up on its own when placed on a table, but it is easily tipped over. I imagine many minis-oriented gamers will fit a base of some kind to it to make it less easy to knock over during a game.

If you're looking to get this for a child, I'm sure it will impress any kid who is into prehistoric animals. It's pretty sturdy for what it is, though I don't know how well the paint would hold up under rough handling.

All in all, it's a nice addition to a collection of game miniatures.

This excellent figure of the Headless Horseman lived up to nearly all of my expectations.  First off, it is a small figure, but the dimensions are almost exactly what are stated in the product description.  In reading some of the other reviews, several people have complained or been disappointed that the figure was smaller than they expected.  Well, the dimensions state that it is 5 inches tall, and mine measures in at 5.25 inches to the top of the pumpkin stem.  So no disappointment for me in the size at all.  It's exactly what I expected.

The detail of the figure is impressive.  The sculpt has a lot of intricacies for something so small.  One thing that isn't clear from the picture is that one of the tree branches also acts as a support for the underside of the rearing horse.  But it's well done and not at all noticeable.  And I'm sure it must add a substantial degree of structural integrity to the piece.

One thing that could have been improved upon is the overall quality of the paint job.  At a quick glance it looks fine, but as I stared at the figure, it became obvious that there are a few small spots that were missed during the painting process.  At first I thought they were tiny bits of styrofoam from the packaging that was still clinging to the figure, and indeed most of them were.  But after a careful cleaning, a few small unpainted spots remained.  Nothing too noticeable, and certainly not a deal breaker. Just something that seemed worth mentioning.

My only other complaint is that the included battery pack (requires two C batteries, not included) that lights up the pumpkin appears a bit on the cheap side.  In particular, the switch seems stiff and not especially well constructed.  The battery pack and the wire are white in color, which I thought was a bit odd.  Black would have made it much easier to conceal (though I guess if you were trying to conceal it in a "snowy" landscape setting, the white would certainly be preferable).  It's my understanding that a plug-in transformer is available for many of these Department 56 items.  Were I planning to light my horseman on a regular basis, I would probably invest in one.  But since I don't expect to utilize that feature much, the lighted pumpkin/battery pack isn't much of an issue to me.

So overall, this is an excellent collectible to own, either as a one-off (as is my case), or as a new addition to a growing collection.  Buying it online, sight unseen, I was prepared to be disappointed.  But it met my expectations on almost every level, and looks pretty amazing on display on top of a bookcase.  Who knows, it might even inspire me to start an entire Halloween village collection.

This is an outstanding figure from Schleich. My only complaint would be the Therizinosaurus' teeth, they look like they would belong to a carnivore. Therizinosaurus was a herbivore. This complaint though is only an tiny annoyance. This figure is huge, I sat him next to my Papo Spinosaurus and this guy towers over him. He as an articulated jaw and arms. His arms can swivel up and down for better posing. He has some amazing detail  especially when it comes to the feathers he has on his back.
I highly recommend this for dinosaur enthusiasts from the ages of 4 to 104. ;) I'm very happy to have this dinosaur on my shelf.

I've been going back and forth between buying this figure for a long time. I've wanted it for a couple years now but have never thought it was worth the money. I finally decided to go ahead and splurge, and I am ecstatic with what came in the mail. This figure is amazing.

The pictures definitely do it justice; it looks just like what is shown, so you see what you are getting. The pieces are easily interchangeable. I love collecting statues, but this is almost better, because if you get bored with a pose, you can switch it up whenever you want. This is my first experience with a Nendoroid and I don't thin it'll be my last.

No doubt that this Castlevania figure may be considered the favorite among collectors of this particular series: the sculpt is near flawless and a great visual addition to any collection that is on display. The only surprise I got when viewing the product in my home for the first time was that the figure's skin tone looks a lot paler than it does in the image above. And perhaps the hair is less red on the actual figure than in the packaging images. Could just be the lighting during photographing of the figure... Anyway, the figure still looks amazing just as it is- get it! DO NOT PAY more than twenty bucks for this however! I waited until the price was about fifteen - I've noticed that at times this figure can be offered for more than sixty dollars! The price will eventually go back down, keep checking. Just be patient- it is worth it!

Dark Horse Deluxe and Gentle Giant have teamed up to bring us fans of HBOs Game of Thrones action figures. I anticipate that people will be annoyed and or pissed that these figures are in a static pose and have no articulation. There was a rather negative reaction to Mezcos Breaking Bad Walter White action figure having no articulation and I suspect there will be some displeased buyers who aren't expecting a figure in a static pose. I don't mind because I am keeping my in their box.

Daenerys Targaryen is my favorite figure of this first wave of Game of Thrones figures. This looks a lot like Emilia Clarke who plays Daeny on the show. I like that you can pick any one of the three Dragon eggs to place in her hands. Again this figure/series by Dark Horse Deluxe and Gentle Giant do not have any kind of articulation. The box that the Dragon eggs come in can be opened and closed, but thats the only articulation be found here. It is a bit disappointing that these figures are not articulated, a simple neck articulation and arm articulation at the shoulders would have been nice, but oh well. Im still pleased with this figure, the great sculpt, the great paint apps, accessories and the base really make this figure great. Any fan of the show should grab these while they can. Theyre not available on Amazon until February the 7th, but I got mine from Entertainment Earth already, and for a few dollars cheaper. This figure come HIGHLY APPROVED.

My son is going through an ankylosaurus phase, and requested this from Santa.  Great detail, very realistic.  Comes with a scale human and miniature fact booklet, to help impress your kid about how big this thing was.  (Dad also learned that these were among the latest dinosaurs, well after the Jurassic period, which is rather interesting.)

(I bought this figure straight from amazon.com. No other seller was noted.)

When I first received this figure I unknowingly received a bootleg. Luckily I was told by others who owned the authentic figure that mine was a bootleg. I quickly notified Amazon and right away received a replacement. Amazon made the return really easy, so I will still be buying figures from Amazon.

The second figure I received was authentic. I thought the bootleg was good but the real deal is even better. Makes the bootleg look ugly. The hair is the big difference between the two, along with the base. This is now one of my favorite figures. The detail is beautiful and I love how big it is! The only problem I had with it was the clear stand in the back not staying well in the holes. Same problem with the halo. I don't move my figures much, so this isn't a big problem for me. This is definitely a must for those who collect Dragon Ball Z figures. Love it!

Neca did another great homage to the original Kenner figure from the 90's. Love the details like the Xenomorph inspired armor. The glow in the dark feature is very cool. Not a whole lot of articulation here so not a great range of posing if your into creating dynamic poses for your figures.

This figurine of Shinzon is so lifelike. It really looks like the actor,Tom Hardy who portrayed him in Nemesis. His cloak is made of a soft rubbery material.
The detail done to his face is also very nice. If you look properly on his face, you can see a small scar (as seen in the movie) above his lips. At first when I got this figure, I thought that it was a scratch or perhaps an unpainted part. I was wrong!! Art Asylum is doing well with their range of Star Trek toys. Keep it up!

A great POP figure for fans of the Hound from the TV series. As to be expected, there are sometimes slight differences with each figure (as in scuffs or slightly off paint jobs), but I've bought two so far and they're great quality and hardly vary. This is not a bobble-head figure. I'm glad because I honestly couldn't see Sandor with a constantly bobbling head, anyway. Overall, I'm super pleased with my order. It's just what I wanted! Now if they'd only make a variant including him wearing his helm...

I love this figure, I just like the look of it. It has excellant articulation (movement in body parts) and comes with a few cool accessories, like the DC-15A blaster rifle and the collectors coin.

I'm talking from a collectors stand point, and It is awesome with the 30th Anniversary Coin and just the overall look of it. In play value, I think it is also worth my cash, because this is based off of character from a Star Wars TV series back in 2003. The smaller kids would even go "Hey, I've seen this before"

I think it is an awesome figure, especially for collectors such as myself.
