(More customer reviews)When you consider the price, this isn't a bad figure at all for your little PotC fans to play with. But for collectors the flaws pointed out in the other reviews are accurate. The paint job is sloppy at best and Will looks a little cross-eyed. The clothes are good, again, for the price, however they are not truly accurate representations of Will's costume.
But if you're like me and customize these figures by repainting and rerooting hair (or in Will's case cutting down his ridiculously over-sized hair)and altering the outfits to be as accurate as possible, Zizzle's 12" PotC line is an excellent base to start from, with impressive face molds. I have Will, Elizabeth, and Jack in the At World's End line and they are all outstanding. It's simply a matter of getting past the horrendous paint job. Of all the 1/6 scale figures I've looked into buying, I've been more impressed with Zizzle's molds than any other brand's, even the expensive ones.
Regarding the body, the original is atrocious. And the hands and feet are absurdly over-sized. If you're customizing the figure, the body easily comes apart as it's held together with screws and the head and the very detailed hands also easily remove from the original body with a little heat. The head and hands can then be added to another 1/6 scale articulated body without much trouble.
As a play toy this a good figure to get. As a collector's item, you get what you pay for. For the customizer, this is a fantastic start to a really great looking Will Turner/Orlando Bloom-based character.
