I've played the old Diablo game on the PC platform but never played the second and third part. Not really familiar with it's characters but this figure looks cool for a display piece. Had a chance to do a review since I'm holding one for repair (broken horn). Damn this figure does have plenty of horns and sharp spikes and looks really fragile. Funny also this figure I'm holding has both left arms installed so if you have plans on getting this figure be very extra careful checking if all the body parts are in order.
PACKAGING
Sadly I have no picture of this fellow in the box so I would have to borrow one from the net. Packaging is really simple nothing to say really except for the pretty cool art work at the back of the packaging.
ARTICULATION
It has 25 points of articulation and a detachable bendy tail. Really have to be careful with this one as most of his joints are really flimsy. Head can look way down and a tiny bit up and can rotate 360 degrees. Mouth can open and close. Arms and legs are a bit limited and you really can't bend them far. The smaller arms have a better feel moving around.
(Sorry no pictures here...don't want to break the figure. It's not mine LOL)
ACCESSORIES
It has none except for the small Neca circular stand. Well I'm not expecting any accessory to come along with Diablo but the least they can do is to include a really cool looking base for it.
PAINT, SCULPT AND DETAIL
Paint really looks great in that flamy orange and yellow color and that brownish black tone. Figure is a mix of matte and some shiny color and has tons of shading. Sculpt is really great same as his detail which makes it a really cool and amazing display figure specially if you're a Diablo fan. Figure stands at 9" head to foot and around 11" including the horns.
Overall I'm giving this figure 7 out of 10 stars. It's best for display and constant posing is not recommended. The feel of it's joints are really freakishly scary specially on the arms and the large horns at the back. Also based on my experience with this toy line, be extra careful when storing them and keep them along with desiccants and moisture absorbing products as it's plastic joints tend to disintegrate when kept in extremely hot and moist storage places. Best kept in open places and displayed.
Blue variant Diablo III Shadow Clone will be out real soon!
Here's a sneak peak...
