Popeye & Bluto

Stormy Seas Ahead Deluxe
Star

Summary

Hmm…Significance of the "Stormy Seas Ahead Deluxe" set lies in its introduction of Bluto, a highly anticipated addition that complements the previously released Popeye figures. This set showcases unique character designs with Bluto's bulk and weight, enhancing the overall display and playability. The inclusion of high-quality, die-cast metal accessories, and distinctive head sculpts, particularly Popeye's bruised variant, further elevates its appeal to collectors of the line.

Pros!

  • Bluto features exceptional weathered detailing on soft goods, enhancing realism with dust and fading effects.
  • Heavy metal accessories for Bluto include a wrench and kettlebell, adding authenticity and weight to the figure.
  • Over 28 points of articulation for Bluto, including multiple interchangeable hands and two expressive head portraits, one showcasing a “battered” look.
  • Popeye comes with multiple iconic outfits, including a navy and white trimmed shirt, pea coat, and bright yellow rain slicker with a removable hat and coat.
  • Comprehensive accessory set for Popeye includes three hats, six corncob pipes (with smoke effects), two spinach cans, a compass, collapsible spyglass, and duffle bag.
  • Seven interchangeable hands for Popeye allow for various poses and holding accessories; three detailed head portraits, including a new bruised version.
  • Hand-painted authentic detailing on both figures includes realistic skin textures, paint weathering, and injury effects.
  • Both figures include One:12 Collective branded display bases and adjustable posts, enhancing display options.
  • Bluto’s large, heavy, solid sculpt effectively conveys his brutish presence, contrasting well with Popeye’s smaller frame.

Cons!

  • Bluto’s articulation is somewhat limited in knees and elbows due to bulky clothing and figure size, affecting dynamic posing.
  • Popeye’s elbow joints may be single-jointed and are somewhat restricted by soft goods, limiting full range of motion.
  • Popeye’s raincoat hat is flimsy and difficult to position naturally, not sitting well with the raincoat.
  • Quality inconsistencies in Popeye’s pea coat and raincoat soft goods, including uneven sleeve lengths and weak velcro attachments.
  • Bluto’s display stand grips are too small to securely hold his large frame, limiting posing options.

Product Description

Popeye, spinach-loving sailor, goes head-to-head with his brutish arch-rival: Bluto. This deluxe “Stormy Seas Ahead” box set sets the stage to spin a tale of two salty sailors and their ongoing titanic conflict.

The One:12 Collective Popeye gets a refresh. From his crisp white sailor slacks, to his navy and white trimmed shirt, Popeye looks shipshape and in bristle fashion! Included are three different head portraits: two classic One:12 Collective Popeye options and an all-new roughed-up portrait. Popeye comes complete with a wide range of iconic sailor accessories and outfitting listed below.

The One:12 Collective Bluto completes the set. Appearing like he has been hanging around the docks and is up to no good, Bluto cuts a choppy wake wearing a collared shirt over a long-sleeve undershirt, work pants, and work boots - all featuring his classic colors. He is packaged with two head portraits displaying varying levels of brawn and brawl. Bluto is well-equipped with some heavy, real metal gear to give his adversary a run for his money.
