Review at playkingdoms: Figures 26 (direct link)

I don't even know what to say about the "late" part this time....  :-[


Anyways, first time I did 5 klickys from one figure, I think... :P

Klickteryx:
Thanks for that. You say it's late to review but if you'd never done it then the time of this review would be quite early. 8}

A pity about the trumpet player's head. I saw it in the previews but thought it was some sticker like they use on prototypes. I think it's meant to be Louis Armstrong as he performed more in collar and tie.

The detective is a perfect match for the paperboy, they're from the same era. The gumshoe is a staple of pulp fiction. That's an accessory that's missing, a small dark grey or black revolver, most of these guys carried one.

The head is a mess.  I have no knowledge of trumpet players.. not my thing. I saw it mentioned somewhere, googled it, and seemed a good match.

A small gun like that would be great, yes :)

The problem is the klicky can't move in that thing, I doubt it will last.. and it does attract every dirt around.

Rhalius:
A pity many are ruined by weird eyes. They really need to stop trying to make that happen.

GrahamB:
Thanks for the review tahra, it's always good to see how you improve on the PM designs! Congratulations on creating 5 figures from the parts of one, that's quite an achievement.

We have only just opened Series 26, so your review didn't seem that late! It was a better selection of figures than some recent sets.
