It is gone to April now. So what do we do? I do nothing today, just blogging can give me some fun today hehe... I don't care with April Mop or anything else, Just want to share to my blogger friends with a great toys although it was an old toy... It is Darth Maul from Star Wars...enjoy
Sideshow is pleased to announce that
Medicom Toy Coporation has granted 1,000 pcs of the
12-inch RAH Darth Maul figure for the US market. The
figure is highly authentic and film accurate, and ready to take life on your shelf in any dynamic pose that you desire. Medicom Toy's RAH body is one of the most articulated
12-inch figure bodies available, capable of nearly any pose that the human (or superhero) body can achieve.
Each Darth Maul figure includes interchangeable hands and a display base, a removable hooded cloak, and comes packaged in a beautiful window display box.
The face does look more dangerous and deadly. Under the paint, the sculpted expression is very similar - one of stern determination. The sculpted hands all look terrific, and all work well with the accessories. The figure stands fine on his own in plenty of stances and poses, just like you'd expect.
When it comes to the paint job, I definitely prefer the Medicom version. The unique tattoos look fantastic, and the eyes are posed looking more through the top of his sockets, rather than straight out. Unlike the Sideshow version, which has the zombie thing going on, the Medicom looks much more realistic and deadly. The eyes are clean and straight as well, with just a touch of gloss to give them that wet look. This paint job is simply outstanding, and turns this in to the BEST looking Maul head produced by anyone to date. Most of the rest of the figure is devoid of paint, but the hands and rubber cuffs match well, even though they are made from very different materials.
The rest of the articulation is solid as usual.
The outer cloak is the best part of the entire costume, made from extremely nice material. There are long wires in the hood, and not just around the outside edge, but from the top of the head down the back as well. There are also long wires running down the arm sleeves, allowing you to pose these flowing pieces of clothing in action. The hood posed well too, much better than the Sideshow versions. The cloak has a hook clasp at the front, but you can also just use the wiring around the neck of the hood to hold it in place. The tunic and pants are made from a very fine material, with excellent tailoring and stitching. The pants tend to pop out of the boots easily, but with a little effort you can get them back in place. The tight tailoring tends to accentuate the skinny chest and the thin shoulders.
div style="text-align: justify;">Please note: The Medicom RAH series is highly detailed, very well articulated, and of exceptional quality, however, the Medicom 12-inch RAH line is not in the same scale as the Sideshow 12-inch figure line. Please note that the Medicom figures are crafted in a slightly smaller scale than the Sideshow figures.
