Prime Spotlight: UniqueToys D-03 Fenrir
Prime Spotlight presents:
UniqueToys O-03 Fenrir
Bottom Line (*** stars- <out of a possible 5>)
By Stygian360
Introduction:
Unique Toys Ordin is moving along with this their third member Fenrir. I’ve already mentioned how I was initially concerned that UT wouldn’t have the ability to create a decent combiner- based on their previous and only other gestalt effort War Lord- but let’s just say those days are long behind them and Ordin is shaping up very nicely. So, does Fenrir do a good job of evoking ‘terror’ and more importantly is he a good buy? Let’s find out.
Articulation:
If you’ve purchased the other members of Ordin thus far then you know exactly what to expect with Fenrir. For those who haven’t, please note that he’s amply articulated and won’t disappoint those collectors who love their multitudinous articulation. His head is on a ball-joint, as are the arms and legs, and all of the articulation makes for great and easy posing. The only thing that could possibly be considered problematic- and that’s only if you lack creativity in finding ways to position them or at least get them out of the way in robot mode- are his two alt mode heads. In bot mode they pretty much just sit limply on his back and it would have been nice if they pegged in back there. Not that Fenrir will be doing any violent whipping back and forth action, thus causing the heads to slip into view, but I don’t purport to know how you play with your action figures. But otherwise his articulation is excellent and on par with every other Ordin figure thus far.
Paint:
The paint application on Fenrir is minimal but what’s here is very solid. Mostly the figure is molded in the primary colors yellow and teal, but any paint application is applied with care and looks great! In fact I couldn’t locate any major flaws on mine- such as overspray, paint drip, scratches, etc.
Transformation:
Fenrir’s transformation is fairly straight-forward and can be done without the included instructions- I know this from experience. Fold back his dragon heads, swing down his legs and tab them into the convenient knee holes, swing the arms around and pull out the robot fists, pull out his robot head located conveniently in his chest and he’s pretty much done. My only concern once he’s in alt mode are the soft ratcheting back hips, which cause him to effect a squatting pose when they inevitably slip out of place. This shouldn’t be too problematic though as it can be remedied by careful positioning of the figure- no blowing, touching, or even breathing in its general direction though. Overall I found his transformation uncomplicated but serviceable. As I’ve stated before complicated does not equal better, but sometimes (and especially at this price point) a bit more complicated wouldn’t be a bad thing. At least make me feel like I’m not just buying another obligatory member. Unfortunately with the simpler transformations it’s inevitable as a buyer to feel this way. But Fenrir’s transformation isn’t exactly a three step ho-hum effort either. I suppose sometimes you take the good with the slightly disappointing.
Bottom Line:
Ordin is going to be a great, but with the second of two recent combiner limbs for this guy feeling a tad too simple I’m beginning to feel fatigue set in. Hopefully the finish line will come sooner than later or Unique Toys takes thing in a different direction with the next two. I’m not saying there is a drop in quality or that there is anything inherently wrong with Fenrir, but he’s not exactly mind-blowing either. No limb should feel obligatory and for some reason this one does. Take that with a grain of salt though because the quality is still high and I still very much recommend Fenrir to those working towards completing their Ordin.
