Isn't this a fun & dynamic display figure? First 4 Figures tackles the challenge of making a figure that looks like it's really flying/zooming along the ground. Nothing like this has been tried yet with Tails! (Even though it was such a familiar sight in the games!) They do a fantastic job with this challenge by using clear & white plastic for the 'whipping around edges' effect, as well as showing the tails flattened like a propeller, how it should be. The little dust trail behind him helps hold him up, because they got the pointed toes correct as well. He's shown here on a Mushroom Hill zone base (note the triple 'layers' of grass and oval dotted ground.
As has become the usual with F4F, the statue / display figure comes in 2 versions, 1 that lights up with LEDs that change colors slowly in the mushrooms, & a plain one where everything is sculpted normally.
As usual, they've really got the sculpting spot-on, with cute expression, bangs blowing back in the wind, and the posture proper from the game. It's a very Tails Like statue. Also as usual, he's limited edition, so all Tails fans should order quickly from the F4F website to get this great piece. All photos & info courtesy of First4Figures.
