It’s Physician Voodoo. He didn’t go to 4 years of magical medical college to be known as Brother, thanks very a lot. I’m so well timed with this overview, this determine is already discounted on Amazon! Let’s do that!
I just like the art work on this field fairly a bit, but it surely does make me want there have been a few cool equipment like a magic hand, extra elaborate jewellery, or magic guide for this model of Brother Voodoo.
Brother Voodoo comes along with his workers, two units of fingers (two grip , proper open and left fist) two blast results, and Blackheart’s leg.
The Blackheart leg has sharp sculpting, so sharp that it harm placing him collectively. Having him largely collectively does make me want they made him a bit larger. I feel it’s my Capcom online game coaching, however in my thoughts’s eye Blackheart is sort of a bit larger.
The workers of Legba seems to be reuse from the Guide of Vishanti Physician Voodoo and it’s properly detailed, however I don’t love how the shrunken heads look extra like demon skulls with pointy ears. I’m positive there may be current artwork that impressed this, however more often than not I’ve seen them depicted as extra human. It could be enjoyable to sculpt some human heads and fix them to the workers with some poseable wire. It’s solid in translucent purple so it has a glowing impact and the 2 blast results wrap across the workers effectively to provide the impression that the magic is coming from his fingers and transferring to the workers.
The determine itself seems to be to be based mostly on the newer Vulcan physique with a brand new belt and cape and the outdated head from the Guide of Vishanti model. The newer, bulkier physique has a extra imposing presence than the unique. The cape has a pleasant hold to it and plugs into the again. I observed that it will typically twist askew as I used to be transferring this determine round. The bracelets I don’t acknowledge, however they’re a bit unfastened, so will fall off when swapping fingers in case you aren’t cautious. I ended up dropping one on the best way from my storage capturing space to inside the home and now I can’t discover it!
The inexperienced portion of his belt is clearly new with extra wrapping and stream to it and the string to the skulls is now beaded. The skulls look the identical, however are a bit extra sharply detailed right here than the unique.
You possibly can swap the cape and bracers from the older Physician Voodoo determine from the Dormammu BAF wave onto this one in case you like, although the heads don’t swap as properly. The brand new one is a bit tight and low on the outdated physique and the outdated head sits a bit excessive and unfastened on the brand new one.
The most effective a part of the paint is the portrait. It seems to be like the identical sculpt as the unique to me, however the brand new paint provides it a completely completely different high quality. The cranium face paint actually appears like actual face paint in that it fades out and the Dr. Unusual meets skeleton Halloween costume symbols on the physique are bulkier and extra substantial which I feel improves the whole look. One factor I do miss is that the cape is usually drawn with the diamond motif from Brother Voodoo’s authentic costume on the trim and it will have been good to get that painted on this cape.
Articulation is typical legends type and all strikes effectively besides lifting the left arm is a bit restricted by the cape.
General, Physician Voodoo is an enormous enchancment on earlier releases though he re-uses so much from the unique determine. Admittedly, Physician Voodoo was very low on my listing of current Legends figures I’d wish to see re-done and in the event that they have been doing one other Jericho Drumm, I’d have most well-liked the basic Brother Voodoo look. I’d have favored extra jewellery round his neck and extra fascinating bracelets, however since I misplaced one of many bracelets, I’d simply need to customise some. Within the pictures under you may pinpoint the place I misplaced a bracelet as a result of it switches to the unique determine’s gauntlets.
