The way this figure was made its clear a lot of time went into the design but the actual joints themselves are hollow which leads to easier breaking even when not in use. The weight of the wings warps the joints where they are inserted so again...[See More]

The flashing looks silly, so I never use it. Also, (and this is important) is the fact that there is NO light in the eyes, nostrils and mouth. This would have looked absolutely amazing...[See More]
