Our first introductions to the movie figures were samples of the Baroness and Breaker who appeared on overseas auction sites in blurry pictures, and frankly the appearence wasn’t very flattering. In fact, I was feeling pretty discouraged about what the movie figures might have to offer, but then we saw Shipwreck. Shipwreck almost single-handedly turned my opinion around about the movie stuff, and gave me a bit of hope, and that hope has continued to rise as more Rise of COBRA figures have been shown. Now, I really find myself being pulled into the movie “universe” and while there is nothing at this point that will match the beauty of Resolute (in feature or toy form), I’m starting to like a lot more about the movie figures than I dislike.
So when faithful GeneralsJoes follower “davy” offered to lend me his personal version of Shipwreck that he dropped money on, just so I could review it…well, I jumped at the chance. I was honestly shocked with the generosity and the trust in me to not only send this figure back, but even to open it! He sent me the figure MOC and told me to open it up and take as many pictures as I needed, so…well…I took a bunch of ’em.
