James Cameron’s Avatar has shaken the hi-tech film industry & (neo-shaman communities) with innovative 3D technology & anti-human humanistic storyline which is similar to District 9. While the storm of Avatar movie is calming, Mattel didn’t forget about the real Avatar fans.
The Avatar collectible figures consist of the heroes & heroines of the movie (sexy Neytiri, fate-victim Jake), monsters, vehicles and surely, the war-obsessive Colonel Miles Quatrich. The figures have some extra features as well which are uniquely thought by Mattel & designers of Avatar merchandise. The Navi characters are glowing in the dark with accentuates on their illustrious blue. And using a special i-Tag, it is possible to reanimate the 3D battle scenes from the movie on your computer.
I should add that all these Mattel Avatar figures & sets are currently for adult collectors and not suitable for children playing. Most figures are without joints & material doesn’t seem to be very hard. You know, children can easily break them apart in seconds.
Anyway, let’s look at some of these very detailed avatars figures.
Sexy Na’vi Neytiri figure is about 3 inch tall and bio-luminescence property.
In other words, Neytiri figure will glow in the dark. The famous Avatar character Neytiri also has a bow & arrow in the package.
Overall, a pretty attractive Avatar figurine. Some fans complaint that the scale was not observed very carefully by comparisons of human & navi people sizes.
Even this couldn’t stop that Neytiri became the bestseller in fantasy figures section of Amazon.
Avatar Na’vi Leonopteryx Figure:
The most savage creature of all Pandora fantasy world is much better detailed than other Avatar figures.
Notice the 20-inch wingspan, various points of joints, ability to carry other human or Navi figures.
This figure ships with a stand & iTag.
I would certainly put into a special list of display figures. Scaling matches to other Navi figures. It is also a favoring feature.
Thanator figure is also very appealing. Especially skin textures, wrinkles & muscles are cast in very detail.
Like many other figures in Pandora world, you will need to put together several pieces like body, head, tail, legs etc.
It is easy for adults surely. I would also add this one to my Avatar collectible figures.
Let’s not forget about the nasty side of Avatar movie. For example, RDA Scorpion Gunship: 24 points of articulation is nice.
The vehicle figure includes double firing missiles, fourfold gyrating blades, and revolving barrel.
