Summary
The Judge Dredd "Cursed Earth" Previews Exclusive figure features a unique metallic aquamarine blue jumpsuit and gold pauldrons, distinguishing it from the standard version. It includes a detailed pleather poncho with wire framing and velcro, a removable magazine rifle (a shotgun), a variant Lawgiver Mk II pistol, and magnetic attachments for badge and shoulder pads.

Reviews
Pros
- Metallic aquamarine jumpsuit and helmet with metallic gold shoulder pads and epaulets, creating a striking, comic-accurate “Cursed Earth” look
- Includes a well-made pleather-style poncho with wire-framed collar and Velcro sides, featuring mud splatter tampo print and a silkscreened Dredd badge
- Extensive accessories including Lawgiver Mk II pistol with selector dial and removable magazine, rifle (shotgun) with removable magazine, baton, knife, two grenades, handcuffs, and stand with dynamic posing arm
- Magnetic attachment system for badge and shoulder pads allows easy removal and repositioning without damaging cloth suit
- Approximately 28 points of articulation with double-jointed elbows and knees, ball-jointed wrists and ankles, and torso articulation, though cloth suit somewhat restricts extreme posing
- Interchangeable hands (six total) with secure ball connectors, functional and easy to swap
- Detailed paint apps including weathering and mud effects on boots and cloak, realistic washes on gloves and belt, and scuff marks on helmet
- Rifle and pistol magazines are removable; pistol features an iconic selector dial not found on the standard figure
- Handcuffs are functional with bending middle joint; accessories fit onto figure’s belt and holsters for display
Cons
- Pistol does not fit securely in holster due to rounded part of grip, causing it to fall out easily
- Rifle lacks a carrying strap for slinging over shoulder
- Cloth suit restricts some articulation and extreme poses
- Baton’s belt loop ring is tight, making holstering somewhat difficult and requiring careful twisting to attach/remove
- Pose arm on stand is less effective due to figure’s weight, limiting dynamic posing options
