It's
Wednesday, and you know what that means:
ToyFarce review!
This week, we're having a look at some of the figures from the
Mythic Legions All Stars 5+ wave from
Four Horsemen Studios. The
6th All Stars wave is being announced this week, so I figures it was time to have a look at those. The
All Stars 5+ wave had 9 figures, a horse and a head pack (
for the first time!). I picked 4 figures (
Azhar,
Duban,
Swigg and the
Xylernian Guard) and the
head pack.
First, the yellow demon sorcerer
Azhar.
Azhar is a great figure, with amazing paint apps. The bright yellow really looks great on a shelf, with the green highlights on the loin cloth. He comes with a
spear, a
sword and a
dagger. I like that he has
hooves, also. There has been a few figures that I could have sworn came with hooves, but didn't (The Unknown One for example). This figure first came out in the
Mythic Legions 1.0 wave.
Swigg is a goblin alchemist, who comes with
2 extra sets of hands, a
staff, a
dagger in a sheath, and a
bone-handled sword. He has wired
soft goods for his loin cloth, which is great. I really like his color scheme, and if you are going to put purple and green colors together, I am going to buy it. His facial expression is really mischievous.
Swigg was only part of
All Stars 5+.
Duban, the human ranger, comes with a lot of stuff:
4 extra sets of hands, a glorious wired
soft goods cape, a
crossbow, a
sword and sheath, a
dagger and his
hawk, Vedrfolnir (
Gesundheit!). Like a lot of people, I had some sort of Mandela effect where I was sure that his armor had more
blue than
grey, but it turns out: not at all. Kinda like the
white and gold/ blue and black dress from years ago. He still looks great, though! The
cape is a pleasure to handle. He has
presence in any pose you put him in, and the
hawk is just icing on the cake. He would probably have looked great on the horse from that same wave.
Oh well... Duban is also only part of All Stars 5+.
The
Xylernian Guard, who looks very elvish to me, is also a fantastic figure. He comes with an
extra head (either green skin or human skin),
2 armor face plates, a
long elven bow, a
quiver and arrow, a
long elf sword, and a
beautiful shield with Xylona's Flock emblem (a deer head). He also has a wired
soft goods loin cloth. That
shield is amazing. I'm not sure about the practicality in a battle, if it would really be useful to have a gigantic deer head on your shield, but it sure looks good. This guard is also unique to All Stars 5+.
The
Mythic Legions first head pack includes 6 heads: a
screaming vampire head, a
human female head with red hair, a
red demon head, a
dwarf head, a
bog goblin head that comes with a
helmet and a different
tongue attachment, and a
Jagualian head that comes with a
shoulder piece and a
tail to turn your figure into a feline warrior. A nice variety, and while I don't have a lot of use for it now, I decided to pick it up: a/ for the novelty and b/ maybe, for future figure 'pop and swaps'.
More news at 11:00...
