Thanks for the review. I don't want the variant tho, just standard. I have a no problem with a new character here or there, as long as we get a Recondo, Blowtorch, and Zap sometime. Actually I like new characters better than crap from other lines (aka Matt Crapper..er..Trakker) or even PP or TF.

I just mount the gun on his back, between his backpack & back using the opening closest to the firing end & placing the backpack peg through the opening & into his back... holds it fine.

Openend one of my regular Wraiths today. He's a great looking figure, but I actually snapped the tiny wires off from the upper arm piece on purpose to achieve better poses . the fact that they're not attached anymore is barely noticeable, but now he can rotate his forearm for cooler gun poses.
I'm still debating wether or not to get the variant. If anyone want to part with one, I'm ready to offer two MOSC wave 10 figures for it. |

agreed. that was first thing i did having read about the fragility and realising it was gonna happen eventually anyway. thinking of replacing them with elastic string or some other flexible thin tubing. still not sure i like him though... just doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of the figures.

I like the regular version better. This is just unpainted plastic. I mean geez variants should be cool not like they didnt want to spend the money to put it on the assembly line for detail work. They could have done alot more with this in the translucent form like the dvd pack snake eyes. Good pictures though thanks.

alrighty! i got my wraith in today! and I love it! I cut the wires off and now he has full poseablity in his arms! and yea he looks like tony stark but I prefer to keep his face plate over his face...lol
so yea awesome figure! great review! only gripe would be the P90 weapon which is huge! and the arms which were a breeze to fix! his face looking like tony stark but also another quick fix by leaving the face plate on. i was so pumped to hear about this figure and am so stoked i have one!

I just opened my regular edition tonight. He looks cool but I can't do shit for posing. He can't hold his gun and cant turn his wrists without snapping the hoses. So all he's good for is just standing with his arms straight down.
The biggest surprise? Lift that helmet and "my god, it's Tony Stark."

I opened mine last night and I noticed the hose thing too. I do like the figure tho, and I swapped his gun with a marauder p90 and was much happier.
