My bad - I guess I wasn't tugging on it hard enough (that's what she said.) The head DOES rotate. Right about...

...here.

Here's about as close as we're going to get to the screen-shot pose. I had to fudge the long rifle with a little blue putty to keep it in his hand in this position.

The pistons exist, and they do move in and out, but he doesn't hold much of a pose when you move this articulation point. He can lean a little left or lean a little right, but that's about all.

If I have one complaint it's the neck joint. It's far from screen-accurate and the bottom of the head could probably stand to have been slightly more tapered. Plus, you can see the neck joint through the "mouth" holes. Just me being nitpicky.

Is that were the LED rests, Jow?

Thanks for all the great pics MicroJow

So how solid does the articulation feel? Do his arms stay in place, do the legs start slipping down when they're fully extended?

I'm not as dumb as people say.

Liar.

 

[FLOSI]

Liar.

Curious about that one too.

Buttflossi couldn't throw a proper tea party if his life depended it.


Thanks for the awesome shots MJ

It was my first attempt.

Here's a pic with the LED cap removed:

The cap screws into the head with a click and attaches itself to the part of the head with the light holes. This entire upper half rotates at the seam just above the "eyes."

The joints are generally tight - the elbow joints don't move any further than as shown in the "movie pose" shots. The shoulder does not swivel (I.E.: you cannot have him raising his guns directly above his head.) As for the leg joints, the first thing I did was extend the legs and they don't appear to be going anywhere. Even off the stand with some pressure exerted onto his shoulders, they stayed locked in place.

(The flashlight was helping me in my fruitless search for the stray battery. Looks like I'm going to have to go buy a new one. No clue where the heck the @!#$% got to!!)

Nope.

The Flosi you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.

Fixed it for you.

 

[galactiboy]

Flosi must have worked his magic as I'm seeing the pics!

Thanks again for all the great pics and for answering our questions. really surprised the shoulders don't swivel? Would have thought that would be an easy point of articulation.
