It came from the Toy Chest... He wants to get his Rock off...

I am talking of the New Adventures evil Mutant Quakke... Wankor hasn't been made in Classics, unless we count a certain time traveling palace Guard... (Wait, Nefty-kun/Disc-ord is a custom... How many of you thought this was a jab against Spector/Toyguru? Please let me know in the comment section.) He's the third Collector's Choice figure that I'm reviewing. He's also the reason Why I got this order... Please don't suck like Teela...

Who is Quakke? He's one of the Space Mutants. He delivered Grr to Skeletor (as a sort of test to see the Evil One's mettle). He also has this huge ass mace that can shake the Earth (before the Honeymoon)

Articulation:
He has the Standard Mattel-made Articulation, but he was made by Super7. No added wrist hinges for him. Mine has a frozen right shoulder. His left thigh is a bit too loose, which makes him a bit hard to stand in wider poses, especially with his weapon. Not to mention that his right arm articulation is slightly hindered by his armor in addition to the frozen joint.
3.5

Paint and Sculpt:
Here is where Quakke shines. The Sculpting on him is amazing. The essence of the character was decently captured, though he might have been better with slightly beefier arms. There is no slop on my figure, so he passes with flying colors.
5.0
Why does he keep stabbing me in the dick?

Accessories:
Mace
Quake inducing meteor.
Here is where my biggest beef with the figure lies. His staff is too wimpy to hold the extremely heavy Meteor. He has three "secret holes" where the mace grabs into the meteor. I try to set him up for pics and the heavy Meteor makes him topple before I can grab the phone to take the pics.
We need a lighter weight version of it. And every time it fell it also made Nefty-kun fall down cause it rattled the TV tray I'm using for the pics.
3.0

Overall:
Quakke gets a 3.83 as his final score, which is a decent score for a figure with so many limitations. Had his shoulder not been frozen, he would've dates better. My only REAL GRIPE with the figure is the mace issue. What's the point of having a mace that he can't use due to the excessive weight of it.
