Leon should go and see a doctor... he's shrinking fast That can't be healthy for a man his age...



He'll be a dwarf by the time Resident Evil 10 comes out!
(Dwarf version will probably be released by SW Toys when the time comes...)

Leon is a short king (5'11")

Dam is very overscaled, MT looks pretty good. I have a shorter Dam body ready for him that will put him at 11.9 inches, which is perfect scale.

Are there tall and short dam bodies?? For Dam Leon I always thought it was the boots that threw of the scaling but the bodies was all the same.

I swapped Leon onto a Dam body… well VTS body I had to mod the sculpt to get it to sit right.

• Box art looks great, it gets you excited enough and it feels legit despite being third party, upon opening you're greeted with a bunch of accessories and preview of the figure under the plastic clam shell. Also included is a body clip reference, so you know where al the belts/straps are meant to go.

• Proportions wise I would say his torso looks a little short and his waist abit on the thinner side as well. The belt buckle does stick out abit and it makes his stomach area look abit weird sometimes. Some people talked about body swapping but I'd hate to lose the seamless look, maybe a different Phicen body may work better or even adding in a padded torso, but overall I think the body proportions look decent and muscle tone looks spot on.
• I must say it was abit of a pain in the ass to put on all those belts and pouches as they weren't preassembled beforehand. Worth it at the end and personally I prefer the non-jacket look more as you can see more detail and muscle tone.
• I've heard the shirt is not accurate colour wise and looking at in-game screenshots, its meant to be a more navy colour which is more grey here for some reason. Even the promo shots had a navy coloured shirt, but luckily it doesn't bother me too much as he still looks damn good.
• Its nice you can have two different looks, one with the jacket and one without. without the jacket you can add on the shoulder harness which looks good and is easy to put on. Clothing and material choice is good but I think a little more weathering would go a long way as he looks abit too clean.

• The seam on the hair to access the movable eye system is noticeable but not too jarring. Back hair is also held by magnets so its easy to put back the hair on and off. I really like the eye system and giving the character a slight side eye look can add alot of character/personality.

• Angry face is decent, in some angles it looks great but in others not so much. The expression looks like he has a bad underbite, but as said before it looks good in some angles.
• The brown jacket is abit of a hit and miss for me, I think the colour and fabric MT choose is a great choice, but its a little oversized is what bugs me abit. It takes alot of futzing to sit right, maybe some added wires would've helped.
• The Display base which MT finally included in one of their releases is a welcomed edition. Name plate looks good but I have no idea why they gave us such a long pole waist grabber. A normal crotch grabber would've sufficed and be much easier to use.

Got my Leon S. Kennedy over the weekend and I must say I am more impressed than I thought I would be!

Ordered him through Kit and had no issues with shipment, was also double boxed

Overall another great release from Master team and personally I think its the best figure so far in their Resident Evil line. Its not perfect but he surely does have some great presence and you instantly know who it is meant to be. Also forgot to mention he comes with a soft muscle body which is easy to replicate some of the cool poses from the game, just have to be careful putting him into dynamic poses long term, as it can stress the Tpe.

We dont get many Leon figures these days and I think this is the best in the market so far, a faithful representation of the character in any video game/horror collection

I'm waiting to get in hand, should be tomorrow or Wednesday.

I do plan to try some stuff out.

These are the following mods id like to do after I get him in: Swap the body, dye the shirt, fade or swap the pants, paint or dye the inaccurate pouches, swap the holster straps, and paint the boots.

How are the pouches inaccurate? Wrong color?

Didn’t want to let the alternate sculpt and MTToys body go to waste so threw. I was gonna add the jacket too but I think I might leave the holster since I’m really digging how this looks.

Not at all accurate to anything just me messing with what I have left over for fun.

Looks pretty cool, I'm actually looking for a black turtle neck for another project, could you tell me which you've used?
