Pros
- Two original head sculpts, one featuring an opening helmet revealing a detailed face underneath.
- Highly detailed, original design with a retro comic aesthetic.
- Unique accessories include the Omni-Glaive with translucent novablade and the Weigh of Woes anchor weapon with a real metal chain.
- Articulated Aquaticons robotic fish minions, each with movable jaws, enhancing display options.
- Fabric Tangaroanian Armor with plastic components and customizable tubing for varied display configurations.
- Excellent paint applications with dry brushing and shading that enhance armor and fabric textures.
- Comes with a mini comic book that expands the character’s backstory.
- Limited edition swag set includes a Baron Bends t-shirt and a signet pin from the Order of The Holy Divers.
Cons
- Tubing does not fit securely in the figure’s ports and tends to pop off during posing.
- The Aquaticons water display stand is made of flimsy plastic, feeling cheap compared to the rest of the figure.
- Only three sets of hands included, limiting gesture variety for some collectors.
- Ankle articulation is limited due to bulky boots; elbow movement is restricted by armor pieces.
- The belt is tight and cannot be adjusted vertically, restricting some posing options.
- Out of the box, pants may sag, requiring adjustment for a natural appearance.
Original Announcement and Product Info
Product Description
PLEASE NOTE:
- Due to limited availability, t-shirts cannot be exchanged for a different size.
Baron Bends, ancient, lone warlord of the cosmic realm and last remaining Aqua-Knight. Now a galactic nomad the Baron searches time and space on a holy quest known only to him.
The One:12 Collective Baron Bends wears Tangaroanian Armor, the hi-nanotech armor of the Aqua-Knights that is capable of withstanding any atmospheric condition as well as creating an incredibly strong protective skin.
Baron is well-equipped to take on whatever creatures lurk in the depths, wielding his Omni-Glaive, furnished with a novablade capable of cutting through practically anything. Baron is the keeper of the Weigh of Woes, a gilded anchor-shaped weapon forged from the underwater volcanic furnaces of his stronghold planetoid and infused with negatite. The Weigh of Woes harnesses immense powers bestowed upon it by The Order of The Holy Divers many a millennia ago.
Baron Bends is accompanied by the Aquaticons - his trusty, elite troop that receive commands telepathically from the technology in his helmet.
