This is just a pile of gimmicks, each of which I’m a sucker for.First, it glows in the dark. Room lights didn’t do a great job jof charging it, even after a few hours, but it does glow. And it’s translucent. And it has metallic paint accents in a very striking blue. And it has a bunch of effects pieces and ports. And it has an effects piece I’ve seen on a bunch of toys I don’t own but have always lusted after - the shell eject effect on the miniguns.
It’s got energy shields with ports for ricochet effects, a pistol, two rifles, two arm-mounted miniguns, a cool backpack, ammo belts, etc. It’s a lot of fun. MOSTLY.
It’s flaw, and it’s a common one, is that the design is writing a lot of checks that the manufacturing and tolerances and whatnot aren’t quite up to cashing. The miniguns don’t peg as securely as possible into the arms. The belts don’t peg securely into the backpack and miniguns at all. The shell eject effect pegs in GREAT, which is funny that the rest of it doesn’t.
And some of the joints are a bit loose for the amount of weight involved - particularly the shoulders considering they have to hold the arms and the miniguns. It’s not bad, itt’s workable, but it’s noticeable.
Still another fun engry / addition to the Classified Adjascent Indie collection, that includes theMonster Force stuff, the Skeletron stuff, and some Action Force stuff.
For the pic I mostly just wanted to show off the fig and effects - tactically the positioning is weird as hell but the clear gun I gave The Eraser doesn’t have an effects port so the Sleepwalker had to be firing at the shoulder shield but if the shoulder shield is visible the Pyre arms have to be pointed a certain way.
