Super Freak
so i just got this guy in and im pretty impressed, it definitely looks really good in hand. as this is my first EB fig i really didnt know what to expect, so here are a few of my thoughts:
The packaging is beautiful, really well done. im a sucker for great packaging so i was really pleased opening this guy up.
the HS is awesome, and this is coming from some one who hated it at first.
the paint apps are done extremely well, i have a small issue with what appears to be a minute dab of glue on the nose, but its basically unnoticeable. i have to give EB a lot of credit here they really did a great job.
their body has nothing on HT TT...this is my only real gripe. all of the joints are stiff and click into place, the feet are hard to move up and down...i was trying to move his thighs and was afraid of breaking them, but with that said there were no issues and all is well.
the accesories are cool, but i feel they lacked the attention i have seen HT give their weapons, sunglasses, ect. the briefcase is cool, but feels cheap, the sunglasses arent the easiest to get on so i gave up, and the gun has some flashing that needs to be sanded/filed down which i've yet to encounter with any HT weapon...minor stuff here but worth noting.
the watch was an issue for another boardie so i inspected mine and discovered that it had the same issue, a sticky/tacky face with black paint smudging off. luckily it doesnt come on the figure and I wont be putting it on.
the suite is really nice, and looks great...some futzing is required but not much.
all in all im really glad to have picked this up and will be looking forward for the "Respect Version" as well.
