The Sentinels did indeed show up today.




I have some issues with them as the neck gets scratched easily by the plastic around it. Fortunately, since it's black it's only noticeable when you look for it, but it still sucks. Also, one of them has the plastic that connects below the thumb no properly put together on one hand, so I have a bit of a gap. Again, nothing detrimental, but for essentially $200, that should not be happening.

With that said, I am having a blast with these guys. Them being a tad smaller and not so chunky like the Haslab ones make them just feel like better toys in my book. I actually enjoy posing them around. However, because they are lighter and have thinner feet, they are more prone to tipping over compared to the Haslab ones. They also can't hold heavy figures like Sauron as easily.

I was kind of hoping due to them being smaller and thinner that I would be able to fit the Haslab "Master Mold" on the same shelf with them, but sadly that is not the case. As such, I have MM on the shelf below with my FF stuff. I kind of planned it would happen that way, but still would have been nice the other.

For some reason, I thought there was more damage to the Sentinel head than the final product. Not sure why. Nevertheless, these guys are great and I'm really looking forward to do some sort of battle scene with my Claremont team since they are the whole reason I bought them.
