We've been sent both figures in this pair, so that you can see how much difference a change of head-style makes.


front view, shown with optional right hand with pistolback view

The PS4 - Pirate with Dagger wears a shirt that is open at the neck, with full-length sleeves. The pants are belted and calf-length; lower legs and feet are bare. The figure wears an empty scabbard in back, hung by a strap over the right shoulder. The right hand comes from the optional bits set.

(Note that you might want to give him a sword-hand, since he has an empty sword-length scabbard!)

The head for this figure has a kerchief tied over the hair. The mouth is open, as if the pirate is crying out, "Where's my bottle of rum?" (or something more appropriate).

Our sample had some very light flash on the upper knife and inside of both arms. The seam is barely visible as it crosses both sides of the face, but this is so minor that it is probably not worth attempting to correct.

We had trouble getting the bar to fit properly into the slottabase, causing the figure to sit too high on the base. With a bit of minor filework, this should fit better.

Figure is 28mm tall from bottom of feet to top of head.


front view, shown with incorrect optional left hand with belaying pinback view

Figure PS4a is identical to figure PS4, except for having a different head. This fellow has a beard and shaggy head of hair, held in place with a bandana tied in the back.

Seam is visible on the dagger (easily correctable).

Figure is 28mm tall from bottom of feet to top of head.
