Tonto 1/4 scale, Mordles reviews

[Michael Crawford]

Getting an update done tonight was looking dicey - thunderstorms took out the power for a few hours. But the good folks at DTE got things up and running again, and I have two reviews for you - I'm looking at the very cool quarter scale Tonto from NECA, and Rideruya is checking out the nifty little Mordles. The old school collectors might remember them from back in the day...you can find both reviews at the usual:

Great review! Thanks Michael.

Thanks for the review Michael! Was tempted to get the 1/4 Tonot but you're review and pics confirmed that there really isn't much difference between the 1/4 and the 7" figure

It really does just look like an action figure someone just stretched out to be huge. How strange

that's how all the more recent NECA 1/4 figs have looked to me lately. Their best ones for me are the original Predator and Gollum. but Avengers Cap, Iron man MK7 and the yet to be released MoS looks like giant toys. They're 7" stuff is much better IMO

Awesome review, Michael, will you be doing one for the 1/4 scale Ranger, as well?

 

[Michael Crawford]

Maybe - I have to admit I'm tempted to grab one. With the Keaton Batman and West Batman coming, I'm really excited about this line.

Thanks for the reviews, read both of the Tonto ones. Been wanting to get the 1/4 Tonto and Lone Ranger, drakeship's $69 was too enticing, but only Tonto is in stock.

Question, how reliable are these guys? Went ahead and put Gladiator Hulk, Lone Ranger and Man of Steel PF's on Pre-order too since I didnt have to pay anything, and bought the Tonto...then realized I dont know anything about this company and an awful lot of the site is in Spanish/bad english.

They're pretty new to me too, so I'd appreciate hearing back from people on their experience with them.

Well i already got my Tonto shipping notice from them, so ill report back when he gets here.

Well I said I would report back on Drakeship: Got my figure, the 1/4 scale Tonto is fantastic! Cant wait to add the Lone Ranger to the shelf.

The box from Drakeship was literally beat to hell. The inner box was just barely surviving as it had been wrapped in newspaper. The figure, fortunately was undamaged. I reported this to Drakeship CS, and their reply was that they have gotten alot of such complaints and were not happy with the Post office...Ok...

I put Gladiator Hulk and Man of Steel on Pre-Order, and they keep sending me pay now in full notices, so I am going to cancel those and order direct. Their policy is that you pay when its ready to ship. Very confusing.

They did ship quick and provided tracking info.

Love the Tonto. Looks great. Articulation is pretty stiff though.
