5 Stars Valeera - my favorite of this series
Valeera is so cool - in fact, she’s my favorite of this series of WoW action figures. (I have all of them, because I’m a big WoW-geek.) She’s got a lot of great detailing on her outfit, like the “jewel” insets and ripples in her cloak. She even has a few thin bloodied cuts on her legs, as if she’s in the middle of a big fight (which she is, if you refer to the artwork on which this pose is based). I gave her 4 out of 5 stars for durability, because she was unbalanced enough that she fell off my bookcase and one of the clear plastic discs on her feet cracked off, but she’s as good as new with a dab of Krazy Glue.
I’m not sure why the previous reviewer thought she was poor-quality - although she’s not the Most Amazing action figure I’ve ever seen, she still looks great and has much more energy and motion in her pose/hair/clothing than many other female action figures I own.
She’s described as an “action figure”, but she’s not very articulated. Personally, I have no problem with this because I’m not playing with her - I’m displaying her. I suppose a young child could find her lack of movement irritating, but I’m going to take a wild guess that 99.9% of the Valeera action figures are being purchased by adult WoW fans, not for little kids.
Overall, Valeera rocks. I just wish Blizzard would make more cool female action figures!
2 Stars common Corporate marketing
This is a very nice piece yes. Only a few problems with it. It is the most cheaply made piece out of the series. My guess is they made it out of cheap product because they knew that the Male Genre would boost the sales regardless just because she’s scantily clad. All the other pieces of the series; even the Warlock with the Three piece Staff are made better than this piece. They may as well have just made this into a Blow Up Adult Toy because that’s about the quality it is and what the piece is used for by most teens out there that play this game.
4 Stars Not too shabby!
I would suggest this toy for any hardcore fans of World of Warcraft. I love these fleshed out action figures they’ve come out with. The detail is amazing, I would have to give it a 9/10 score. A well made piece for your collection and something I always enjoy looking at.
1 Stars Inferior quality - it bends over time - cannot stand alone without weights on feet
At the time I got Valeera action figure, I gave it 2 stars.
I began my collection of WoW action figures, and this was the last one I got.
This is by far the cheapest single action figure made in the series. While the visual concept and the looks (from far) seems cool, at close you can notice that there was little love when making the details, it is poorly constructed, there were errors in the painting, the sword was a horrible looking.. it looked like a “toy sword”, instead of a “real sword”.
I put a stop to my prejudice and included this figure to my collection set. The problem is that it had some problems standing on its own (if you notice carefully in the product image, it has 2 circular transparent plastic panels at its feet that works as support). Anyways, it could stand on its own, and I went away, kind of happy…
2 weeks later, the toy began falling, lost its balance, the feet panels were kind of umbalanced. My quick solution, after many falls, was to put the draeni action figure panel on 1 foot, as aditional support. It worked, still does.
You know, the prob was that, the total weight of the toy, over time, made it bend. (Same issue has the Illidan figure - also from Series 1 - because the weight of the wings at the back is too much).
So, it bends, and today, I noticed Valeera is almost kissing the ground now. It has been 3 months after I purchased it (was brand new).
I uploaded a photo on the image product gallery. I hope it goes thru.
Overall opinion: if you are a collector, and decide to keep top quality on the Wow Series, skip this one. It is the only one that it doesnt fit on quality. Seriously.
