Ed is everything I could have hoped for! He is my first Nendoroid with arm joints, and despite me never hearing anything good about Super Movable Editions, he is amazing! My only complaint would be that his braid gets in the way of posing in some situations, but it's very minor. If you're still on the fence about buying this 1:1 scale Ed, I would recommend you go for it! I promise you won't be displeased! :D
