Enterbay "Ip Man" Pt.1


The box packaging is simple with magnetic closures at the side. The front shows picture of Donnie Yen as Ip Man practicing his Wing Chun martial arts on the wooden dummy. At the back, the top part shows the movie scene where Ip Man was facing the ten Karate students. The bottom part has some text printed in English and Japanese as guidelines to maximize the life of the said product.

Open up the box, you will see three compartment containing a die-cut foam for the figure and two plastic trays for the accessories. The accessories given are three extra pairs of interchangeable hands, a white kung fu shirt, a wooden dummy, a feather duster and a metal made colour patterned floor tile.

Besides figure and accessories, there is a printed colour card showing the drawings of hundred and sixty five strokes of Wing Chun martial arts.

As you can see, the head sculpt is still okay with an 80% resemblance to the real actor. I will do my review on this figure as soon as possible...

The packaging very classic with chinese tiles. The face can be better I agree.

Agree with you, Leon..The head sculpt can be way better but based on the current standard of Enterbay, this is very good already. I still think their Bauer and David Palmer in 24 TV series are the best figures so far besides Bruce Lee series. Their Jay Chou is also not bad :)

The packaging design in & out are attractive with strong oriental feel. The layout seems organised and given that Enterbay throws in the wooden dummy, it makes it hard to come by. A great movie that truly deserves a well made figurine of Donnie Yen as IpMan.
