Flash Point Studio 1/6 Scale Deathknell Standard and Deluxe Version (ZSJL Deathstroke)

[Alatar]

Love this guy, what a shame we never got to see his Deathstroke in action!

 

[Fastball Special]

Damn I just now discovered these.

Any reputable retailer suggestions?

@Fastball Special: Check with One Sixth Kit, Giantoy, TNS Figures, NeoGeek if they have it. Follow Kit Chen of One Sixth Kit because he often gets additional preorder availability after preorders have ended.

Kit just sent me an invoice for the standard version of this. I wonder if they've put a rush on the standard one to counter SooSoo Toy orders.

This is awesome, I’m really looking forward to the Knightmare version. Kinda wishing now that I’d gotten the Luthor’s yacht version as well from Flashpoint, but I opted for Soosoo’s version of that figure.

After seeing the reviews for “Johnlander” (Oof! I literally laughed out loud at one of them!) I’m getting nervous that now that Soosoo is back in production mode we’re going to see a drop in quality. They were killing it for a while in there, e.g., with Robin, Nightwing, Rorschach, Comedian. But the Homelander head sculpt is laughably bad. Well, anyway, we’ll find out before too long here.

Alright! Got and paid the invoice from Kit for this bad boy!

This time of year it’s delayed gratification for me for 1/6 figure orders since we’re only about 6 weeks away from Christmas. So under the tree this figure shall go. But I’ll definitely watch every unboxing and review video I can find on it until then, haha. I expect Big Breda will have one shortly.

This should be a really fun Christmas morning if my preorders that have a chance to get shipped over the next 6 weeks make it here in time. Also on that list this year is InArt Gandalf (which with an order date of June 19th might not ship in time for Christmas, but here’s hoping ) and Soosoo Ozymandias.

I’m aware that there’s a risk to waiting to inspect the figure as such, i.e., that there could be a defect in it, and then it might be difficult to get a refund, etc. I’m just hoping for the best on it!

I got an invoice for both now. These will probably go under the tree but I will definitely inspect them first.

Knightmare's neck definitely needs tweaking. Other than that they are looking good!

Thanks for pointing out the neck.

What's the best solution for that? Just get a 1/6 neck adapter on eBay?

Hard to say for sure until we take it apart and have a look at it. Most likely a shorter neck peg though. Might have to be a custom one.

Worst case maybe replace the stock body with a Worldbox one.

It would have to be a pretty bad case to go that far but yeah I would imagine so.

Glad I went with SOOSOO for this.

Yeah, Soosoo has the unmasked head sculpt for the Luthor’s yacht version whereas Flashpoint doesn’t. I didn’t notice Flashpoint has only the masked head sculpt until Big Breda’s unboxing video. (For the Luthor’s yacht version, that is. Knightmare does have an unmasked scuplt.)

Knightmare version is on it's way , will most likely order the SOOSOO one to have a regular version .

These actually came out much better than I expected. The head needs lowering on unmasked head sculpt and the arms will need posing so they don't look too weedy (a bit thin at the inside of the elbow). They remind of HT Deadshot.

Got my tracking # this morning .

Caved in and bought the A version
Even though I was hesitant at first cause I already have Arkham version but it Deathstroke one of my favorite DC character ever.

Saw this posted on a FB group this morning. Figure looks pretty darn good. Still have to find a solution to the neck. But overall it looks great in the collection.
