I'd also like to know, particularly with the NECA D&D figures. Golden Axe, if you have 'em! 😀Β

I will look tonight. He is bigger than Mezco’s Conan but works with Mythic Legions. Probably short for the new multiverse He-Man figures but I am not 100% sure.Β

Can't wait to see everyone's pictures. I couldn't afford to drop the cash on him at this time, but I know when they release their Death Dealer & Conan figures I'll be all over them.Β

Won't work.

He's about ML 1/12 scale. On my desk, he's got a few cm on the new Bucky Cap, squares even with Black Series Darth Malgus. Those are the only dudes I have on my desk atm.

He does look good with ER Red Sonja, the female Gladiator figures, and Mythics.

NECA and Golden Axe are too big at their 7" scale, and he looked like Wolverine against Sabertooth when I put him up against the McFarlane Hawkman. Not AS small, but you get the point.

--

I like this guy. The plastic is great, hands have give which is great for the grip hand and axe. I didn't heat him up, although one elbow was pushing my tolerances. There was some factory grit or adhesive that came out, rubbed off, and is no big deal. Paint is clean on what's painted.

Posing is better than I anticipated. Elbows get great range and the swivel substitutes fine for a bicep - I know the designer has gone into why he chose what he chose. The knees could use a bit more range, but that's personal preference. He hits most poses you'd want from the movie and just has a good presence on the shelf.

Hands pop and swap with a reassuring firmness. Swappable mouth gimmick works as intended and I wish Batman figures had it. Love that you can pop and swap everything off if you want a naked man. Or custom fodder.Β 

One thing I noticed is the boots being a slide on layer means that you have to push them up or down to match your ankle pivot/swivel, or flesh will show on the joint.

Packaging is gorgeous with embossed artwork and signature.

I like that I ordered this thing in September and it came out as advertised, right after Christmas. Done with Mezco and Executive Replicas and all the rest holding me downpaymented or upfronted for two, three years.

If Teegra hits as smoothly, and if the Girls intend to roll Frazetta back to Death Dealer or Conan, I think Frazetta Girls is on course to pull a Jada Toys on the rest of the higher end industry. Timing, quality, communication, execution. These are only good things.

--

For anyone waiting on shipping, mine shipped "Saturday night", but in actuality was picked up and moved Tuesday and arrived in Toronto for delivery Thurs morning.

For anyone who hasn't even had shipping labels, I saw one of the Frazetta ladies mention they were short staffed and solo packing things, but even then were only dealing with the latecomer preorders as of Wednesday.

PS - the bag you get is pretty fun. How boutique.

I like him.Β  I find his limitations a bit more frustrating than I was expecting, between his ankles lacking a swivel & his shoulders & sculpt fighting you trying to get his hands close enough for much two handed posing.Β  But he's got a great sculpt & finish.Β  I'd happily buy a Conan or Death Dealer from them, but not much more at this price.Β  Still happy to add this one to my collection.Β  He's just a bit short for Neca & McFarlane I think.Β  Mythic Legions is right about in the sweet spot for size.Β Β

Yeah, I think he's pretty awesome, and I agree, he'd fit really well with a Mythic Legions collection. I was hoping he'd be a nice compliment to the NECA D&D line, but I agree about him being a bit too small. I guess he could be some sort of smaller rogue character but he screams barbarian/fighter all the way. Trying to decide if I hold on to him or help find a home for him in a Mythic Legions fan's collection. Really cool figure though!

@panthercult I find him to be a very unique figure that I'm happy to own, despite not having any deep connection to the movie.Β  I think it's a bit overpriced for what it is, but I have no regrets over pre-ordering him.Β  If you're even thinking about it, then you'll probably kick yourself for missing him if/when he sells out.
