My first Mafex!
Since
Nightwing is my favorite superhero 'n' everything... I've eyed this figure for a while now, but it's always been outta my budget... until my crappy ex decided to dump me!
Again!
Well, what can I say? The guy looks
amazing, he does. He has a very athletic, but not overly muscular build that
fits him very nicely, and he comes with more hands you'll ever need. He also includes a stand, two kali sticks, two kali sticks connected with a bendy wire, an
incredible pair of hands twirling sticks, an alternate head and an alternate back piece that can hold his sticks. You are definitely getting your money's
worth out of this guy.
Articulation wise you get butterfly joints, ball jointed ab crunch and waist, bicep swivels and ball joints on the shoulders and hips, the hips can be dropped down for extra range, and he has double jointed knees and elbows. The feet can pivot, and the wrists are on ball joints too. While it could be slightly better, he has a lot of range, and I've had a
ton of fun posing him. I had a
few small issues with him. The ab crunch could've definitely been better, but when I play with his torso, sometimes the waist ball joint comes off. The right leg was also
dangerously squeaky, so I had to
oil it up. He's on the lower end of the six inch scale, so he is
almost as tall as the Bucky Cap mold/
A tiny issue with the butterfly joints is that they can turn a bit too much, which breaks up his blue symbol. Not a huge deal, but worth
mentioning.
Next to my other two 6 inch Nightwings. Not as overly muscular as DCUC's, but not as slim as Icons', he's just
right.
I love this fig. I've been playing non-stop with him since I got him, and I had a lot of fun posing him with DeathStroke(
Spoilers!).
