Gandalf the Grey has 12 points of articulation and great detailing and facial sculpt. He has a removable robe and comes with Glamdring and staff. His hat sits snugly on his head, so he won't have to chase it when a gust of wind comes along. One of the neatest features is his light-up staff: his left hand has several metal connectors that cause the staff to be raised and light up when a lever on his back is pressed. The connectors are a bit finicky and not necessarily seated well, but careful handling should solve any major technical difficulties. The ball joints in the shoulders allow for a wide range of arm movement; the paint detail is clean; and the easily removable cape is flexible and does not detract from the clean lines of the figure. This will make a wonderful gift for any Tolkien fan (not to mention for anyone into just plain cool toys).
