Evolve Legacy Collection: Markov Action Figure

How sad. This could have been an outstanding collectible; however, the quality control is lacking from the sculpt on down to the final assembly. First off, the hands have not been designed to hold the large, thick weapon. The joints are very stiff and some have evidence of some kind of glue seeping in and permanently freezing the joints. I gave the figure a hot water bath prior to "physical therapy" and even a second bath with boiling hot water didn't help. At least I got him to fit into a stand. Maybe more heat will help with the hands and gun. Without the weapon he has a kind of sad-puppy look to him, like he's been stranded somewhere by Vladimir Putin. On a positive note, the jet pack is retro-freakin awesome!

The detail on the figure is great and it is a heavy figure but the joints are completely worthless. If you want to buy it and set it on a shelf it might be okay as long as you don't try to pose him and good luck getting the gun in his hand without breaking his arm off.
