I was surprised by the size of this figure. I wasn't expecting something this bulky! I thought it was just a slightly larger PUP. Shame on me for not confirming the size. My main gripes with this figure are the painting on the bones being average and the pose being bland. He doesn't have his staff and he's just kind of praying to the sky. They were probably thinking "he's casting a spell!", but if you're going to do that, at least add some extra parts/effects to make it look that way. However, for the price, it's good value I'd say. He's going to be mothballed if a really nice figure of Ains ever comes out!
