Good evening, fellas!
Here are some impressions of Her Majesty.
The first pictures were taken indoors - with a flash (SORRY for that but I had no choice
).
Here you can see how the stand is used. The box comes with two aluminium rods, a short one to display the figure in a bent / crouching position and a long one to present it in an uprights tanding position as seen here. The rods can easily be switched. The attached head piece has two plastic spheres preventing the rod from damaging the body. UNFORTUNATELY the overall appearance suffers a bit from the stand but it is necessary to prevent the figure from toppling over because of the heavy head. Alternatively you would have to tie the feet to the ground to keep the figure in place.
The detail is breath-taking. The jaws are made of transparent plastic. It opens and closes.
The softness of the material varies. The side of the hood and the tips of the spines are softer and more flexible than the rest of the figure. The legs are strong enough to carry the full weight of 850g.
One of the highlights: The hands. As gracile as sturdy. They won't break.
