The White Walker is the 4th figure from Funko's 1st series of Game of Thrones 6" scale figures, and is my 2nd purchase of the line following Tyrion Lannister.Unlike other boxed series figures, Star Wars Black Series for example, the Legacy figures come in different coloured boxes dependent on the figure alignment within the Game of Thrones story. The White Walker arrives in a grey box with silver and grey titles and wording. On the reverse is a Portrait shot of the Walker directly from the TV show and then a list of the 6 figures that make up series 1.Out of the box, and I was ultra careful after the issues I had with Tyrion and that are widely reported as rife within the early GoT figures from Funko.Thank fully the White Walker popped out of the pack in one piece and was relatively easy to articulate from the get go - but I still steamed him over a kettle for a few seconds to loosen them further rather than avoid any damage.He stands a touch over 6 1/2" which allows him to stand a good head taller than the normal sized GoT figures and is accurate to his appearance in the show. The sculpt, done again by Gentle Giant, is brilliant and the head in particular is rather striking with the sunken cheeks and eye sockets. Down into the torso and body and the sculpt really delivers to capture an emancipated body. The clothing comprises of a leather skirt and leather bracers on both the forearms and shins, these are quite plain but still have some nice stitching sculpted in and some jewels and decoration on the skirt.The sculpt is really nicely painted, with a blue base colour washed over with a bone, almost white, colour to bring out all the details. The eyes are a stunning bright blue and the hair is nicely painted in an off white and the chin has a look of coral almost. The leather areas are washed to look weathered and my only painting complaint is that the very small detail decoration on the skirt is painted too thick and the detail is lost. This sadly seems to be a common theme with the GoT range as I have seen this already on Tyrion and the Ned Stark figure I will be reviewing next.Articulation scares me to death on these Funko Legacy figures due to the reported fragility and my own experience of snapping Tyrion's leg. I am happy to report no such issues with the White Walker. The head can rotate to either side even with the long hair sculpt. The shoulders are on ball joints and can swivel a full 360 degrees as well as moving out to almost 90 degrees to the body. With an elbow joint and a wrist pivot and swivel you can get the arms into some half decent poses. The chest has a torso joint but this barely adds any movement to the body and without any practical benefit wasn't really needed.Under the skirt the hips are ball jointed and the White Walker can get into a splits position if he really wants, aided by that flexible rubber skirt. There is also a thigh swivel which doesn't add a lot of value but slight twists can be enough to get the figure standing securely. The knees are double-jointed so he can flick his lower leg up up almost enough to touch his own posterior, and this allows for some wider action stance or indeed a kneeling position. When moving the knee joints in particular you can also feel a ratchet within the joint, and that will obviously allow the figure to hold his position rather than flop over with weak leg joints like a couple of figures I have reviewed recently. Finishing at the feet the ankles swivel and are meant to pivot looking at the joint, but the ankle bracers do restrict that movement.The White Walker comes with a nicely designed ice spear which is also well sculpted and well painted. My only criticism of the spear is it feels too short and if you pose the Walker with his arm outstretched holding the spear it is about an inch too short from touching the floor. I also found that the spear was really difficult to get into either hand. Once in it won't go anywhere, but I would be worried about the longer term effect if you moved this a few times.My final gripe is the decision by Funko to not provide their Legacy figures with peg holes in the feet. The Walker stands reasonably well, but the ability to drop him onto a peg hole stand would have widened the options for display.All in all I am really happy with my White Walker, and he has gone a long way to restoring my faith in the line. I am pleased to give the White Walker a 4 out of 5, let down only by the lack of peg holes, a short spear and some over thick paint on a couple of details.http://www.mephitsu.co.uk/#!game-of-thrones/c6dh

This is a well made model with no flash or surface bubbles. The colour scheme is simple, consistent, and the overall look is a faithful likeness of Arya Stark. The modelmaker even managed to make the face appear serious. The sword fits in either hand (it is not sharp, but observe the usual precautions if you let children play with it). The joints are strong and any plastic ridges are not obvious when bent. They are also stiff but should ease off with use. The figure balances easily in natural standing poses.

Brienne looks a little like Jamie Lannister in our version of this model!!! However it is well made (although the sword holster had come loose from Brienne's body and needed to be re-glued back on). The box was a little damaged - other items it was packed next to in the same delivery were unharmed - thus 4 stars as opposed to 5.

This figure is an excellent product so well made.The movement and features and whole feel and look are really so well detailed.Jon Snow is one of my most favourite characters and I would highly recommend this to any fellow Game of Thrones fan as a must buy.A great collectable item and just perfect for my collection.

Great likeness of the character Drogo and was well painted for the best part. The face had no errors or mistakes. The only issue is the knee joints are painted together and took alot of work to get the excess off so they could bend.A must for any fan of the series and much more accurate than the series 1 figures.

I have a couple of figures from this collection and for the money they are surprisingly good. They could do with a Base to stand on, because you only have to look at them too hard and they will fall over, but considering the relatively cheap price they do actually look like the characters so can't moan.

great articulation and some very good detail , only reason the product doesn't get 5 stars is that ive not been able to get Arya to hold needle :/ANY tips would be grateful but her hand is gripped closed at the thumb - Other than that the figure is very impressive and i will get some more.

Good figure and likeness. For those experiencing problems getting her to grip Needle, dip the hands into boiling hot water to soften the plastic first, arrange the sword in the hand then cool water to harden the plastic and grip position.

I was Extremely happy with this Game Of Thrones Toy - Jon Snow Deluxe, as it was a gift for someone and they were over the moon with it because "Jon Snow" is their fave character from the show!

Amazing detail....perfect for your collection! It would have been better if a base is included so the figure would stand properly without falling down.
