Just got Orin today and this is the figure i was excited to see by far and I must say I'm not disappointed.
He comes in the 2 typical DCIE boxes with good artwork on the inner box and good background info too. The main difference I see between the figure and the artwork is besides the glowing red eyes on the art, a much better belt on the figure than art and the figure is missing the leg fins like he has in the artwork (those would've been killer!)...other than that he looks great!
The newly sculpted bits are:
- gauntlets (love these!)
- head
- cape and connector clasps
- belt
- trident (could've benefitted from some additional sculpting details, but overall a good, new accessory)
The rest of him is the basic 'B' sized buck...
The paint apps are solid throughout my figure, though a little heavy (again) on the hands...looks like he's wearing lots of latex gloves at the same time. I do like the muted colors on him and I think it works well with the figure, as well as under the sea.
The logo on his chest is centered and has a solid paint job.
The joint articulation is a little loose as compared to the rest I've received and thankfully he doesn't fall over with that ginormous cape...must be a pain to swim with that thing in the ocean depths.
For those of you that have purchased 2, this is a great start to making him up to resemble the New 52 Orin...
Overall, he's a great figure to look at and I'm happy to add him to my collection.
Stay Minty-Fresh everybody!
I am one of the 63%....
