Elite Miniatures 54mm Achilles figure

[Franco]

Dear Members,

I am toying with the idea of getting the new 54mm Achilles figure by Elite Miniatures.

Looking at the colour photos it looks like a great figure indeed. Has anybody bought this figure? I require some added input, as follows:

1. Is the casting of the figure good?

2. Is the anatomy of the figure correct? Is there anything which requires major surgery or is it OK?

3. What is the assembly like? Complicated - how many parts does the figure have?

Appreciate any input from fellow members.

Thanks
Franco

Hello Franco,

Why asking? Andrea figures are one off the best. You can buy it even so is Pegaso.
Now i am asking. Why don't you give the answers on the question's and gave it to us. So please write a revieuw of this kit.

Greetings marc

Franco: this figure is a gem. Everything about it is perfect. However, you may have some difficulty cleaning the seam lines along the sides of the figure. Why? Because they run through wrinkles and folds, making them somewhat of a challenge to clean. Besides this, the figure goes together with absolutely no filling whatsoever, due mainly to the figure's engineering. I'm about 50% through painting this figure, so I cannot give a complete review of it. Nevertheless, up until now this has been a true beauty of a figure to paint.

Hope this helps ...
