While I really enjoy the looks of these figures, I have to admit that calling them "action" figures is kind of stretching it. Yes they do have limited articulation. However, it is very limited and doesn't lend itself to a great amount of pose-ability. These are more like collectable statues. They look great in my display case, but can't be used in any kind of diorama. Still if you are a fan of the Original Battlestar Galactica series or maybe a Sci-Fi collector, these figurines have very good likeness to the actors and fantastic paint applications in addition to the great sculpt details overall. It's too bad that the fourth wave didn't make it into production. I've seen some photos of the prototypes and they would have made a great addition to this little collection.
