BUZZTOYS - The White Wolf - 1/6 Geralt (Netflix)

Poor lighting, but swapped the body to a soldier story ssa-001. Narrower chest and slimmer arms but less restricted by the shirt, also the knee is halfway down the leg now.

Still reckon the head is a bit large, but the shoulder pauldrons broaden his shoulders enough that it doesn’t look too out of scale.

Is this the newer body type that came out a month or two ago. I got that body but didn't use it for anything.

I really, really wish I could speak French but alas - I am a dumb American.

As an Englishman I'm pretty sure learning French counts as treason for me.

 

[Luisenigma1]

Lordnastrond learns French, UK's reaction. Lmao

Mine came from TNS today with only the silver sword. The other was missing. Contacted TNS and hopefully they can send me another sword.

Yes it wasn’t long ago.

Those are great poses.

Yeah that's the one I have.

Got mine today. The feet are SOOOOOO loose dude. I really love the figure but wow the feet really ruin the enjoyment for this release big time. No reason for such an issue where as otherwise the product feels pretty solid.

Anybody have any tips on making them a bit stiff? I heard dipping the pegs in glue then letting them dry a few times can help, or is there a better way? Or maybe even a better body to use?

Switch the pegs out. Use a pair of HT ones they'll fit into the boot and legs fine and will stay in place after. That's what I did with mine.

I don't know if I have extra HT feet pegs. I know they usually come with extra hand pegs.....are they the same?

The ball pegs would be different maybe a bit shorter. But due to this legs being long it won't make a difference.

Yeesh, these reviews makes me not want to pay off my PO for this figure. The outfit, armor, and head to body proportion looks a bit off to me.

Well I still need to do a lot more work to this, but here's how mine is looking after throwing it on a spare body I had with much broader shoulders (no idea what third party figure it came from). It's not the best and I'd still like to find something that has some much thicker arms, but it does at least improve the proportions somewhat.

You repainted the hair a bit too huh Dave. Looks awesome if anything a body swap isn't a bad thing I was hoping to find one with thincker legs to fill the pants out a bit.

 

[davejames]

No I haven't repainted the hair at all.

 

[Luisenigma1]

No I haven't repainted the hair at all.

Good camera quality then.

Been so excited with this figure! I haven’t had much time to pose it because of the holidays with kids but it’s amazing! My favourite in the collection now and now look forward to Soosoo version to compare. Happy collecting everyone glad we all finally are getting this. No one can replace Henry as geralt

 

[dominishin]

Damn yeah, the ankles are terrible on this. And the leg articulation is extremely restrictive with those ratchets only allowing certain amount of movement.

The shoulderpads are non issue though, you can adjust them how you like... so I really don't get the complaints on those.

He looks good but the body is bad. Never felt this way about the rdr2 body which this supposedly is.

 

[DioramaMaker]

Honestly, this is one of the best examples of proto to production continuity I've seen.

This figure is almost exactly what the proto looked like, basically to a T. And that in my eyes, is actually worth a lot of credit. It's hard to carry a release through production to that level of accuracy.

The ankles are the only downside I can immediately identify. That and a lack of hands. Out of the box I really don't have many complaints otherwise. The likeness is pretty dang solid all around and the hair doesn't look as stiff as it does in photos.

I think a white dry brush on the hair would go a long way, but as is, I think we're doing a lot of hair splitting for a first release out of a company. They did good. It's easy to pick apart stuff these days, but when you step back, this is a nice figure.

 

[davejames]

Yeah it's a bit annoying that we only get one right gripping hand that doesn't even hold the sword that well. Lol
