They're 5POA like the ReAction figures. Ghost looks to have just swivel shoulders/hips, no sign of a neck joint. Yeah... nope.

Jon, Ghost and Ygritte and the White Walkers are buys.
Tormund is a maybe.


The Wall is a little out of my comfort zone price wise.

No, they're 9poa like ReAction figures with knee and elbow hinges. And Ghost very much looks like he has a physical seam for a neck hinge in his packaged profile, imho. But like the Club, the PShop the pics so damned much you have no idea what to really expect to get.

I was going off the descriptions which say 5POA. Regardless, these are a pass for me. I was really hoping they'd have gone the SWB route and shrunk down their 6" Legacy figures but nope.

I saw the prototypes at Toy Fair, they are indeed 9POA (with the possible exception of the wolf).

I wish these were better articulated, but these look fun to me. And I envision Ygritte and Tormund head sculpts leading to many Scarlett and Outback customs.

I wonder how the torsos are made. I'm assuming they're like ye olde Kenner SWs with two hollow hard shells, but maybe they're a solid softer rubbery mass like modern SWs? How are the 5poas made? It's gonna matter about how easy it will be to bash in better-articced limbs whether the chest can be kept.

Neck yes, tail no.

Hmm...

I wish these had slightly more realistic sculpts, but I will still pick up most of them.

I'm stoked just to see an in-scale crossbow that I don't have to fashion myself. The White Walker and the King will make for great D&D fodder, and if the plastic is soft enough, I can bore out the fur pieces and place them on other figures from MU to HACKS. I do like the Wall. Can't have too many frozen wasteland pieces.

One of the skeletons in the Palisades Army of Darkness 3.75" line had a sweet crossbow.

Daniel says they have pop'em ball necks, at least. But they don't even look good enough for head fodder, imho. PASS.

Ygritte and Tormund have pretty good heads. Jon and Sam look like decent headsculpts destroyed by bad paint.

Why oh why was the Night King's paint scheme changed to all shades of baby blue?

The figures themselves are pretty much just like the reaction figures with added texture and joints. Disappointing.

Yep, what he said.
