The handle also appears to be made from a bone, and the sculpt of it is just really nice on it. Not much is included accessory-wise, but what we do get is pretty cool, as Kong comes with an axe that he will at some point have during the film, which I'm very curious to see how it is used in the film, especially as it looks to be made out of one of Godzilla’s dorsal plates. While the posing you can do with the figure is limited, it’s still great to see them giving the figure this kind of articulation at all. This figure features wrist swivels along with shoulder, elbow, leg, and knee joints as well. Though the head articulation leaves a lot to be desired, it isn’t a big issue. This figure continues to impress me given its price, as unlike their first Kong figure they put out, this figure is packed with articulation. Overall though this is a really impressive sculpt for its price range.

Plus for those buying this for kids it’s a part of the figure that could be easily lost over time, though once it’s attached to the figure’s arm, it thankfully doesn’t really seem to fall off easily. Personally I’ve never been a fan of it on figures period, but especially when it’s done like it is here. There is one detail that I really don’t like or care for with this and others in this wave of figures in the line, that being the battle damage feature.

But from what we have seen of his appearance in the film, it looks fairly accurate, even going so far as to have his ears sculpted onto the head.

Sadly we haven’t seen much about how Kong will look in the film. And the head sculpt is just really nice looking overall. Honestly I got to say I’m kind of surprised with what Playmates was able to do with this figure given its price range, as the figure has a nice furry texture sculpted into it.
