Easterling Review

First off, let me say I do like this 3 pack. The Easterlings look great, just how they did in the movie. However, I think there are some quality control issures. First off, the staff that comes with the Easterling with staff, is extremely difficult to fit in his hands, my staff broke as I was trying to fit it in his hands. The same with the Easterling with Shield. The shield won't fit in his hand. You have to stick a pencil in his hand to open it up more before it fits. Also the joints on these toys can sometimes be hard to move right after you take them out of the box. You have to start working the joints slowly, because if you just decide to twist the arm to get it moving it'll snap off. The solution to this would be to stick it in the freezer for a while, which makes the joints easier to move. Also, don't give this to any young children, because it has some very small pieces.

Cool Easterlings

These are really good toys. The Easterling with the flag is obviously the leader of the group,he comes with both his sword and flag. Witch are both removable. The Easterling with the axe is pretty cool, the only thing that disappoints me is that he only has one weapon. And now we come to my favorite one of the three, the Easterling with the swod and the sheild witch I think is a good combination of weapons. Over all this is a good way to get some bad guys that aren't orcs.
