CmToys "Roman Gladiator" H004


~ Front and back of the outer box ~

Inner box design and accessories given with the figure :)

The figure resembles Andy Whitfield as "Spartacus" in the TV drama series 'Spartacus: Blood and Sand'.



Though the likeness of the head sculpt to the actor is bad, the paint job is pretty good. The eyes, eyebrows, moustache and lips are well sculpted. I personally think the skin texture is what makes the head sculpt looks more realistic :P

WWE "Cody Rhodes" Mattel Elite Series 13


Love the new packaging Mattel has produced :P

Rhodes wears a clear protective mask. He sometimes took off the mask to use it as a weapon in the ring. The accessories are: 1 paper bag that made of soft rubber and 1 black jacket with hood.
