McFarlane Toys Elite Edition Fallout Lucy Figure

No idea why McFarlane thinks this offering competes with similarly-priced lines, but this ain't even on the level of a NECA Ultimate.

I suspect he thinks it competes because his Elite figures generally sell out.

We will see what happens with this. I would pay almost any amount for a good female Vault Dweller. But poor Lucy doesn't qualify.

The quality of these "Elite" figures seem to be slipping down a particularly steep cliff. At least the Doomslayer, overpriced as it definitely was, looked really good. This and the Persona one? Nothing about these appear "elite". I guess they expect people to pay this ridiculous price point just because these all have ties to popular video games. Middling number of accessories sure don't save it. "Here's an orange hunk of inarticulate plastic, minimally painted, that's Dogmeat, go nuts over that like people did with Krypto." No idea why McFarlane thinks this offering competes with similarly-priced lines, but this ain't even on the level of a NECA Ultimate.

I've wanted an articulated Fallout Power Armor figure since Fallout 1.I loved the TV show,Lucy is a great character but why start with her? Again, great character but with a plain human you really have to knock it out of the park to make them an exciting and desirable toy especially one in the more expensiveElite Edition line. This is not an "impressive" figure. I feel like Mcfarlane paint apps have fallen in quality. More and more his figures look like they have large areas of unpainted and glossy plastic. This one, the face looks so off and the sculpt is meh. Hope he made low quantities of this one so it sells through and he isn't discouraged from making Enclave Power armor & Mutants. The #1 figures he needs too do are the basic Power Armor types, those will sell.

This figure did not turn out well. I'd love to get a Vault Dweller action figure someday. Lucy would have been a decent substitute for my usual look, but she is a pretty poor looking sculpt.
