TMNT Mega Bloks - Bebop (Villain Pack)

Image
I've finally reached the end of my TMNT Mega Bloks rope.This Is the Bebop Villains Pack set that comes with Bebop and three Foot Soldiers.     You gotta hand It to Mega Bloks for creating  such  cool little articulated figures .It's amazing to me that something so tiny can be engineered to fit so well together and work!Seriously,If Mega Bloks created a 3 3/4 figure in this same manor,It would totally work!Imagine the fun customizers would have. It could be something like Mashers but without all the goofy ports. Baby Foot Soldiers!Everyone's favorite elongated skulled purple alien ninja!  I didn't think I was gonna dig the sewer plumbing display stands too much but man ,I fucking love em!The little action shot portraits are just awesome to look at.Mega Bloks has a way of making you forget that these are lego esque children's building blocks.I decided to get creative and add a second floor to this display.  Check thi...

I'm glad I passed on the Playmates  Nickelodeon cartoon series  Bebop now that I have this movie version in hand.It's a way better representation of the original and that's all I really wanted.Something that came close, at least. Out pf the packaging,Bebop Is a hefty figure with very little paint apps.The sculpt Is decent with some texture to the bare areas to give it some semblance to  pig skin .The weapons are nicely sculpted as well,but again,no paint apps to speak of. Articulation Is a little wonky in the arm areas.His wrists seem to want to swivel,but don't.They'll move a little but anymore twisting and I fear they might break off. I could try the hot water trick to see If they loosen up a bit.His legs are pretty mobile for them being so short.You can move those around nicely.The head ,while articulated,still has limited movement.       Tattoos are always  a plus on any action figure .So are mo-hawks and studded bracelets. ...
