Almost 5 stars- Great Figure, just a few flaws

It took 6 months past their target dispersal date, but it was worth the wait. Wasteland Ranger is a gorgeous..uh..."homage" to Mad Max: Fury Road. The headsculpt is awesome, and the detailing for the figure- clothing, accessories, bandaged hand- are killer. Yes, it could have more weathering a la the movie, but I'm totally ok with what weathering they did to it.

My version came with no instructions at all about how to put it together. That was a less-than-great discovery for an amateur. And that holster- what a joke that is. You can get it on the weird pad-thing, but you can't secure it. Any good tug can remove it- and getting the two little straps through the tight little thingies where the straps don't connect to anything else blah blah. The wrist pegs on mine are a little loose, and ergo the hands are very easy to remove. I haven't put the face-cage on him, as I've seen videos on youtube that show where paint got rubbed while trying to get it on/off. If I want to do that, I'll buy a Kumik head off ebay. Lastly, the leg brace was installed upside down. Had to take that off and reverse it. A small pain, but kind of surprising that the factory would do that.

Love the figure, and love having it on my shelf. Win. :)
