An intimidating bobblehead.
By Armando N. Roman
I've been on a bobblehead kick recently [thanks to Fallout 3], and while I don't like a lot of their work on action figures, NECA has a lot of very cool bobbleheads. When I saw that Stay Puft got immortalized in bobble-form, I hunted one down right away. This is probably my favorite one I own so far, and I can see why this guy's going for 2 or 3 times the original price. But there's one thing that keeps it from getting 5 stars, and it's the usual problem I have with NECA.Mr. Stay Puft stands at about 8" tall and is made of the standard resin that most bobbleheads by NECA are. The sculpt is really good, and he's got an evil little face here, which is a nice change from the usual happy expression (though I would've been fine with that one too). He's molded in a walking pose, crushing a few cars on the base. It's a cool stand, and this is what I like to see rather than the basic empty bases that most other companies do. Stay Puft even has a real ribbon on his hat, but the one on his sailor...napkin...thing is part of the mold. He isn't necessarily a bobblehead since his head doesn't rock, but instead his body does, while his legs stay put. He works best rocking from side to side, and goes for a while before coming to a halt. 'really cool to see one of these go for so long!So what's the problem if it looks so good? The paint. As soon as I got mine out of the box, I thought that some fan with no paint experience had done the work. NECA usually ends up using too much paint on their figures, killing the detail in the sculpts, but here, there were no clean lines. Blue paint from the sailor thing went into Stay Puft's chest, white paint from his head was in the bottom of his hat, etc. It's pretty ugly. That's one thing against me though for waiting on buying this and getting it offline instead of getting one in a store when it came out, when I could've inspected them on the shelf before buying. But from what I've seen, a lot of these guys have bad paint- even the one in the customer images.One last thing I need to mention is that the spring and post inside Stay Puft's body that causes him to bobble, is very long, and there's a chance of him breaking at the post because of this. Just be careful that you don't rock him too hard, and that you hold him by the base with one hand and support the back or front with the other when you're moving him off a shelf because he could probably break if you tilt him in one direction for more than a few seconds.Even with the poorly applied paint, this is a great bobblehead for any collector or Ghostbusters fan. And as long as you look around for a good price, you should be happy with the purchase. Now if only they made a Janine bobblehead too...
