I've been Spook "chatting" so sorry for the delay. The handle does not look like plastic -- it has a wooden look to it. (Keep in mind that I've never handled a gun with a wooden handle so I don't know any better.) I like the weathering and the rotating cylinder where you can see the bullets in the chamber. I also like that there are two sets of bullets, one to put in the chamber and the other to display. The EX is a must, IMO.
The sucker is heavy and with the two-piece base, you'll need to make sure your display cabinet can handle the weight (mine couldn't so I had to move things around). I like the sculpting on the base, it's very nicely done, but it does have a plastic look to it. I couldn't imagine them making the base all polystone -- the entire piece is heavy enough as it is.
I always regretted not buying the original polystone Samaritan but this one takes the cake. I no longer have regrets. I love the way it looks displayed in it's base. It's a great piece and well worth the $.
Hope you all feel the same way when you receive yours.
