I too had a broken candle flame on opening but nothing a bit of glue won't fix. The movement in the sculpt really makes this piece pop on the shelf, particularly compared to my standard 'A-pose' figures :) <br /><br />Thanks again mate, brilliant stuff Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10650300288693913319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-79081499784749315912016-03-06T19:54:56.627-08:002016-03-06T19:54:56.627-08:00Yup, that's part of why I wish Marvel would li...Yup, that's part of why I wish Marvel would licence some Pete Wisdom figures - he's looks almost exactly like a darker version of John, right down to the trenchcoat and the flames!jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-31113914066398005472016-03-06T18:22:47.625-08:002016-03-06T18:22:47.625-08:00I like the movement of him but he seems kinda &quo...I like the movement of him but he seems kinda "light" to me.

I haven't seen the full series yet (one of these days I probably will though), but from what I did watch, it's much less violent (and weird) than the original comics. I haven't watched Gotham, but I the episodes I saw were probably less violent than Daredevil.jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-33267474940048646862016-02-08T19:03:09.212-08:002016-02-08T19:03:09.212-08:00Oh Congrats!

Shame about the candles though. <br /><br />I actually like the simple box designs, it doesn't detract from the figure which is nice. And I'm really loving the painting and sculpting on his face.<br /><br />What did you think of the Constantine series? I have never watched it, only saw him briefly when he did a guest appearance on ... Arrow I think it was.<br /><br />I couldn't watch Gotham or Daredevil tv series because of the insane amounts of violence, not really to my taste. I had heard Constantine was similar?AlasseCarnesirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10014121062303198129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-36679136548227355402016-02-08T09:02:09.938-08:002016-02-08T09:02:09.938-08:00Lively is a great description - for a static figur...Lively is a great description - for a static figure, they did a nice job of creating the illusion of movement, didn't they? :)jSariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091297532711995227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6443729619692022416.post-79682291753658575092016-02-08T08:43:19.934-08:002016-02-08T08:43:19.934-08:00This is a great figure!

Too bad about the broken candle and the bad packaging!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
