ENTERBAY: Men In Black

[Wulf]

Right, but even in manufacturing them and handling them at the factory will scratch them. I was quite surprised at how cheap feeling they were. Like something Hasbro would make.

Yeah. All of the weapons, if I look closely, have tiny tiny scratches that are barely visible. They feel really cheap, but I think they look great.

Got my post office notice! Gonna go pick them up after work!

 

[madnug]

Just picked up from PO. Came in nice and mint with no damage seen. The basically taped the two individual brown boxes together and ship them out as one piece. I opened the first box and found a K, and the extra set of weapons. I opened the second box found yet another set of guns! At that point, I was like "Crap! Am I getting a double agent K??" Was relieved that I saw the letter J when I pull the box out!! But my letter sticker is all crumbled up coz they just jam it in....

Just opened the boxes and looked at the figures. The head sculpts are gorgeous! I have to say the likeness is better than any other figure I got to date! Even my wife was amazed by them (while she has always been critical on the HT head sculpts! haha). The knees are a little weak, but tolerable. Elbows are tight, and I figured that is because they did the "click" joints and once you bend it a few times, they are ok.

Will try to do some pictures later, if work load permits (SDCC rush at work!!) Overall at first glance, I am quite satisfied with these purchases.

One extra note - I noticed that the post office did not charge me any tax and duty, and upon looking at the paperwork, EB actually only puts $50 as the value. I guess it is a good thing for us to be able to skip the import duties and taxes. But I wonder what will happen if there needs to be a claim...

Awesome mate. Can't wait to see some pics.

Tomorrow for me. So excited.

It's crazy how much the cheaply made neuralizer is selling on ebay.

Everything but the sculpts, outfit, box, and metal stand (I really like these stands actually) is cruddy.

I would include Frank, but he has some weird sticky/tacky paint on his outfit.

These are my first Enterbay figures. They're not perfect, but I'm really impressed. How does their other stuff compare?

I'm thinking about either SF Respect or Leon. Wish they still had that deal with the two SFs for 300....

I'd say if the bodies weren't an issue, they would be consistent with the higher quality recent figures they've been pumping out the past few months like Leon, Che Guvera, Scarface, T2 and Rambo.

Well, the weak knees i suppose is the most dissapointing thing for this release. My Agent J unfortunately also suffered from puppet marionette legs, so i brought it back to the EB shop to get it fixed. Agent K is not as bad, they are also kinda weak but bearable, i suppose since hes an old man its ok to have weaker knees so we'll i'll give them +1 point for accuracy.

I've been collecting EB since early days, and besides my Jack Bauer, i don't recall any of their other figures having these weak leg issues. Even the recent RM-5 Han body was fine, why would these have problems?

As Yulli and JC Hong entered HT becoming a turning point, I'd say EB's turning point came when YJ Park entered the company. First figures being 24 and Godfather. Arnie Kim's sculpts were always nice, but paint quality went up 3 notches when YJ arrived. EB has always made pretty decent looking heads with fairly nice tailoring as well. The suit on these figures are nice, and the material they used were good. Their Godfather suits used this very thin..... kinda like ski jacket material. Which looked nice since it didnt have the bulkiness of normal material, but when you held it, it lacked the usual realism. Their bodies were always lacking since they stain easily and their accessories (esp. guns) are not up to standard (not including the 1/4 figures). Although they have been improving slowly. If you compare these weapons to the Bauer or even the Leon guns, you'll see they have greatly improved, but they have long ways to go still.

So in conclusion: 1/6 Enterbays - Nice box, head sculpt, tailoring. And if you have a chance to visit their store in Hong Kong good customer service. Have lower expectations for the rest. 1/4 Enterbays - top notch. Still an improving company.

Thanks for the information. I got a good pair of MiB. I'll be ordering from EB again.

My J can't stand for ____. K is a little better but I'm gonna def have to try the superglue method on J. The arms are stiffer than a zombie in a 1980's horror flick on both figures. I'll have to take the jacket and shirts off to get them to move right. As far as the head sculpts after giving a day I think they both are top notch. They look really good next to each other. It's just a shame that we still got some small issues to iron out.

 

[Stanlore]

Seems like the majority of owners have more problems with Agent J.

Also, to add to that, for me... it took me a few days to warm up to the J sculpt. Maybe it was the expression or the fact that the K sculpt blew it miles away. I went through a few boxes at EB, and they all kinda looked the same and i wasent 100% wowed by it. I was planning to just slap on the shades and leave it at that. However, after having it at home for a few days it does looks better to me. If you look closely you can see a very small blush in his face that really brings out the sculpt.

For the Agent K's, I also though 3 boxes and the other 2 i saw definetely had a very pink/red face. Although i picked the palest one, the reddish face seemed to highlight and bring out certain details more.... so its not all that bad.

 

[Rogerbee]

good to see u back Roger hmmmm surprised EB MIB figures getting all these issue, their RX-5 bodies were not bad also no weak knees or ankle ...

Yeah, odd really,

They get what could have been their biggest license then they drop the ball.

One of my RM-5's has a slightly loose torso so they're not all perfect. They really do have to get tough with their QC. If these figures aren't enough to teach them that then I don't know what is!

 

[EXOTICLEX]

a very quick movie I made on the ipad...first figure vid actually....so be nice....

Mines changed to Awaiting Customs Charging Oh shocker! Looks like they'll be wanting fees.

That sucks, man. I got mine on Tuesday and was lucky enough not to get any custom charges, it must be a random process they follow as i've lucky for the past few things i've had shipped in.

I should thank EB on this occasion though as they put $50 value on the side of the box so that could very well have kept it under UK customs radar

So if they've done that on your box then i expect the charges to minimal

Have you managed to bend the arms yet? I'm really hesitant cuz i don't wanna break them, but they are stuffer than my late hamster, it's crazy
