The Animal is good for a toy of a stick man and he's a little tougher feeling than I anticipated which is good but the cymbals and snare drums on the poles fall over easily if not all placed hugging together. Honestly though I see absolutely no reason why anybody should get the full priced version when this $12 TRU release still comes with the entire drum set and the exact same figure while the full priced $25 figure just comes in a bigger box. TRU also had a bunch of the new ultimate Jason but I just ordered one last night because I didn't expect my store to get it so I'll just wait for that one.

My Zilla also has a loose torso, and when I opened mine, had some stuck joints at the elbows due to either some kind of film or overzealous paint application. I had to heat him up, in addition to scraping some of whatever it was that was on top of the swivel with a blade before finally working it free.

Still glad I grabbed him though, as there is something about the MonsterArts one that looks off to me. Getting a decently close representation of this Zilla at a fraction of the cost is rather nice.
