Action Figure #584: Dungeons & Dragons Honor Among Thieves Rakor

  Everything is better with Dragons

 I mentioned needing more monsters, and I do love Dragons... so Rakor is finally here with me.
 Well... He does feel more like a toy than a proper collectible. While he does look nice and scaly, the scales are rather large and round, clearly, whatever got the job done, as opposed to the beautiful work Hasbro did with something like the Beholder. I do like the metallic silver on his belly, and the poisonous green they went in for his wings. Whichever the case, he is an inexpensive, large dragon, and he does look good... even if a matte finish on the black plastic would've been welcome.
 The front and hind legs can move back and forth, but they don't have joints and they don't move to the sides. The head can rotate a bit to the left and a bit to the right, but it's nothing special. He can open and close his jaws. The wings are on ball jointed hinges that can open and close, as well as turn 360 degrees, which is pretty cool. Sadly, his tail has no articulation whatsoever.
 The silver paint stops midway through his belly. Lazy, cheap Hasbro. He scales nicely next to a Marvel Legends as a medium sized Dragon.
 While a bit basic and unimpressive, he fits the dragon-sized hole in my collection quite nicely. The paint and articulation could've been better, but it's good enough.
6.0
