The following review is the third of a four part series.
The Recap
In 2000 Hasbro offered a special collection
commemorating the WWI, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam wars called the Millennium
Series. The collection consist of four detailed figures with diorama from
each war. This month we will be reviewing the Third figure in the series
representing a Private 1st class from the 7th infantry Division during the
Korean War.
like the other figures in the millennium series this
one comes packed in a plain white box which provides basic protection for
the figure but adds little to the overall experience. However, once you
remove the figure from the package you will see a great diorama of a
hospital tent in the middle of winter.
The head sculpt is great and like the other figures in
this series the paint job is top notch, The body is extremely articulate and
has a nice weight. The figure is well balanced and stands up on its own with
little effort.
The costume nicely done, and this guy is definitely dressed for
winter. The figure is sporting a multi layered costume consisting of a ,
Snow suite and mittens over a full uniform. I have no complaints here the
costume is very nicely done. The figure also comes with a helmet, and rifle
this was a little but of a let down when compared to the other figures in
the series.
Summary:
This figure displays well and for around twenty dollars
on ebay making this a great value.
