Love the way this figure looks & I'd also be interested to see if Diamond Select releases a The Mask figure with similar pose-ability. 👀 Perhaps from the comic. 👀
I love Eric Draven and the Crow is one of my favorite movies. That said, there is something about the jaw and neck size of this figure. Just way too big for me. He was a rocker, not a linebacker. Love the added fan service with the tombstone.
Theirs a Walgreens exclusive with no jacket & a flight stand for the crow plus the lightning rod from the rooftop fight scene. Oh and a different face sculpt.
@@TheReviewSpot No problem, it’s hard to come by, still trying to find it myself!! Scalpers have it on eBay though for a not so cheap price. Loved the review 👍👍👍
What a must have figure this is from Diamond. Looks just the way I would like it. And some neat goodies he comes with. Tombstone tipping over can be fixed so not a big biggie for me.
I have the Neca mega scale with sound crow I think this time I will pass with this The face don’t convence me to buy it looks son cartoonist Hopefully Neca give us an ultimate version fully articulated in the future
There’s something I don’t like about the head sculpt. I saw previews of an upcoming Mezco Crow and I think the face on that one might look more like Brandon Lee.
There is a diamond select crow figure without the coat and a clear stand for the crow with the wings spread which answers the question why there is a hole on the bottom lol haven't seen it advertised anywhere for pre order only 1 I can find is this 1
Its a really good figure of Eric Draven.i think the issue with the tombstone is just yours.mine is perfectly fine.i added a little colour details here (tiny bit of blood on the bulletholes)and there and its the best one in that scale yet.the variant might be cool too.
My problem with Diamond Select is that I feel like their in-house style lacks texture and weathering. DS figures always feel very sleek and somewhat flat.
I hate Diamond Select action figs and statues, but this piece is an exception. It's freaking awesome. I just purchased mine after watching this, can't wait for it to get here.
Thanks for your review! I almost bought this, but I just can't handle that head sculpt. Something about that neck and jawline feels very off to me. I love everything else about it though, especially for the price point.
The figure has a decent looking head sculpt, even though it's not a 100% accurate representation of Brandon Lee as The Crow. The hair has been nicely sculpted. However, the neck is a bit too long. The jacket looks good. The boots have a pretty good sculpt as well. I also like the guitar. The crow that has its wings spread could've been afforded some kind of display stand since there is a hole underneath it. The tombstone wobbles because its bottom isn't completely flat. This is still a pretty good figure, despite a few issues along the way. Otherwise, thanks as always Spot. I really appreciate the continued hard work. Keep it up!
It's pronounced Eye ban ez and as far as I know both of the guitars are made by Ibanez. One being a strat like guitar but with a different headstock than a fender strategy. Thanks for this review! I was perplexed by the crow peg hole and the extra hand
I too was confused on the hole on the bird and looked all over to place the bird. so what I did was turn the guitar upside down on his back and put the bird on the little silver peg on the guitar 🎸 🤷♂️
I just got this one and not really disappointed just more bummed/confussed as to why there was no display stand for stability amd why nothing for the crow with open wings hea just kinda there
Yeah I couldn't understand either why they just didn't include a display stand with the figure? I would have made the most sense. Still happy with the figure but more confused than anything else that they didn't pack Eric a stand seems so simple? Thanks for coming by and checking out the video, hey if you don't mind me asking, could you tell me if you're still able to see my newer videos showing up on your subscription feed? its been affecting a lot of viewers and just wanted to make sure you're not one of them, thanks again!
Yea except the weird neck and big head is more pronounced. I would get both if you could find the walgreens one.. I kinda like the smiling version because of Brandon's iconic smile, mine just arrived from Amazon and is currently waiting patiently in my mailbox 😁
The Walgreens version of the crow is fantastic amazing figure i bought a month a go for a good penny because it was only few were made. But im glad I got him though .
@@unitruth im sticking with the diamond select the crow there fantastic figure to Mezco is way to expensive for my pocket yes I do agree Mezco one 12 looks good to
Hey spot i got mine today and i was fiddling around with it and the strap can come off of the guitar and you can reattach it. And the peg hole is for the standard release that came with a stand
I have a lot of flight stands so its whatever but kinda strange there's nowhere to peg the crow. I wish the guitar had the more accurate headstock. They got it right on the statue version coming out 🤔
I have this figure also and love it. Unfortunately for you, it seems your tombstone is simply flawed as mine stands perfectly fine/even. You can try placing the open winged crow’s talons under Eric’s hair mold by either shoulder and it stays locked in well and looks really good too! Also, the Walgreens version apparently is limited to 1-2 per store. Great review!
In addition to the Walgreen's variant figure with the flight stand for the crow, you can use the peg on the bottom of the guitar to seat the crow on. Unfortunately the guitar neck is not accurate to the movie.
Diamond select made several different versions, it’s rather annoying, and very disappointing. They each come with different accessories. One comes with a sword and open wing crow but no coat, another comes with a chair-open wing crow and no coat, the other we see here. 4 different versions of a figure with minor variations is ridiculous. The Deluxe Version, The collector’s version, the chair one, oh and apparently the 4th version that looks like a vhs and comes with a tombstone, closed winged bird and a hangman’s poster accessory. 🤣 What were they thinking. Complete stupidity. Who was on the marketing team for this, this had the potential to be an awesome figure.
Great review. I was hoping Neca would make an ultimate version of this figure, but I think this one is good enough.
that movie is awesome
I loved the neca figure...I do have the 18" one with sound
@@GeorgeNadaYT very little to no articulation sadly
Same mine it’s second hand but still works the electronics
I thin this time I will pass with this
There’s a Walgreens variant with no jacket. It comes with a flight stand for the flying crow.
I just bought that one a few minutes and was like Wait! where's the guitar?!
Ihave them both now
This head and thick body sculpt looks more like that wrestler sting or undertaker or whatever his name is than Brandon Lee.
Love the way this figure looks & I'd also be interested to see if Diamond Select releases a The Mask figure with similar pose-ability. 👀 Perhaps from the comic. 👀
That would be cool!
@@TheReviewSpot The violent
The Mask comic is what I'm talking about by the way. I loved the outlandish craziness of the The Mask. 👀
Just got it amazing detail and love your content liked and subscribed
Awesome, thank you!
I’d prefer an updated re-release from NECA but doesn’t look like that’s gonna happen anytime soon.
FIRE IT UP! FIRE IT UP! FIRE IT UP!

Jipp, hard pass for me. Face is tooooo long and looks comical, his neck is faaaaar to long as well. So sad.

hmmm thanks for the heads up, I'll have to check for that one
Was just about to post this same info... That's what I get for being late to the party.

@BlessedDoongleBerry I know i will not be paying $100 plus for a $17 figure!!! I’ll just enjoy my deluxe version I have instead.

He looks so goofy! Can't believe you guys like this 🤣🤣

Go on eBay they have it for $30s
Walgreens has it for 16.99

It can't rain all the time!
Omg its great figure.
So I alredy know what I want for christmas :D
Knowing Diamond select with the john wick figures, we could see more Crow figures

The walgreens issue looks much better

will the crow attach to the bottom of the guitar when guitar is placed just like you display it?
Amazing!
My favorite movie
Great figure. Picked it up a few weeks ago. Still would like to get a figure with the original comic look though
Same here!
Awesome video and review!! Enjoying these Diamond Select Statue Reviews!!
I have a lot of flight stands so its whatever but kinda strange there's nowhere to peg the crow. I wish the guitar had the more accurate headstock. They got it right on the statue version coming out 🤔
Looks pretty goofy! I'll stick with my neca figure
Animated... You got it. But for me that's bad! If this was for a cartoon then maybe... But for the movie?? It's goofy lol
I think there is a peg on guitar and crow can be attached to guitar once on the back.
Decent
This looks good!

Thanks for the info!
I feel there should've been a peg on the bottom of the crow instead so it could peg into the hand with the hole in it!
Probably the same crow mold that comes with the other version and the flight stand
now Im curious to find that other Crow figure
Just insert a plastic pin on the tombstone and peg the open winged crow on it.
exactly
I hope I don’t fail math this year
Do jakks pecific Rocky battle damage toy
Do Rocky 4 battle damage figure
Do more predators
In addition to the Walgreen's variant figure with the flight stand for the crow, you can use the peg on the bottom of the guitar to seat the crow on.
Unfortunately the guitar neck is not accurate to the movie.

They're all dead they just don't know it yet.

😍💔😭
I'll stick with the hot toys one..dont like this
Looks nothing like Brandon Lee
I look at it as being more an Animated take on The Crow
@@TheReviewSpot but was that what they were going for? And if animated then why not from the comic? Strange
Because it’s Sting
