   The WOW series 2 figure was awesome in person. The details, the coloring, the quality of the piece. For someone like myself that wants to collect them, this was a great addition to our collection. We had no problem in ordering or the delivery. It came packaged well so no issues with dents, breakage, crushing etc…

   This toy is exactly what it seems – the sheild and sword are the same as some of the guards wandering around in Silvermoon City. Overall quality is good, with a large amount of detail, either in red or gold. The material is very durable.

   Unlike the cursed stance issue present with so many of these figures, the paladin seems to have made the cut. Thusfar he’s one of only a few that I haven’t had to prop to keep standing while displayed.

   All the pieces are excellently detailed, and the paladin here is no different. A good buy all around.

   very good looking detail toy. if your a warcraft fan or person that like eye candy then this item for you. the is my first toys of this series. His armor is amazingly design and His color is fine. ( no paint over in the wrong place) the only thing that i don’t like is that there no action to this figure. can’t move any of his arm or parts. so other then that it is will money spent.

   This Tauren is awesome! Its Detail is amazing! It has practically no articulation at all. But it is so cool.

   I went ahead and got the Korg Highmountain figure because I wanted something big and imposing to adorn my shelves, and minotaurs are as good as it comes in my opinion–strong, honorable, intelligent, they’ve got feelings, they’ve got muscle, and they have horns.

   So being a WarCraft fan I decided it’d be just as appropriate to get a Tauren figure, and that’s what I did. It arrived here just a few minutes ago, and after opening it and setting it victoriously on my primary display shelf, my overall rating is four stars for the following reasons:

   Pros I’ve found:
   - He’s big. And he is imposing. He’s also heavy.
   - Very well detailed–I’m not a major figurine collector or anything, I got him just because I thought it’d be groovy, and I have to say he’s very nicely detailed.
   - Removable weapon. By removing the thumb of the left hand, you can insert his boomstick (or any other similarly sized weapon, object, tree trunk–etcetera) into his mighty paw, and replace his thumb to hold the object in place. As one reviewer already mentioned, it does seem to want to pop out, but it hasn’t done it to me yet. Just takes some effort in getting everything situated just right so it doesn’t want to pop out.
   - Big and imposing. Really, I turn my head and look up at the shelf, and he just steals the spotlight. Pretty cool for an action figure.

   Cons’ I’ve found
   - Static. No, he doesn’t shock you–well, actually, his size did shock me–but I mean he doesn’t move. There’s no adjustable parts on him except for the removable thumb. This surprised me in a way, because I have an Orc Shaman figure by the same makers (I think), and you can rotate his forearms to a degree, allowing for a little bit of custom posing. But here, nope, nothin’.
   - Medium Quality Rifle; it certainly isn’t the center piece of the display, but I was rather taken aback by the quality of Korg’s boomstick/sythe. It’s quite light, and has a rather visible seam for me, but oh well. Certainly not too terrible.
   - Stability. Now here’s where other reviewers have also gotten a little miffed, and I agree with them–Korg is very top heavy. While those strong leg muscles would keep him standing balanced were he real, here they do not, and he has a tendency to want to fall over wherever you put him. I took some black paper and folded it a dozen times, sneakily slipping it under the front of his hooves to make him lean back a little bit instead of forward, and it seems to have solved my problem. Still, I’m sure there are ways balance could have been more properly obtained during production.
   - The Stand. By this I mean a black oval-shaped disk with two pegs sticking out of it, onto which Korg is supposed to stand in a threateningly awesome manner. Sadly not for me however, as the pegs are misaligned, and do not properly reach the other hole in Korg’s hooves. Poor bloke.
   - His mane. Very personal issue for me, really isn’t worth mentioning, but the mane on his back looks goofy, sticking out so far and so thick as it is. I think it’d have been cooler if they were finer strands, or if his broad back were without ‘em all together. I was thinking of getting some cloak or something for him. Customization, hoorah!

   All in all, a very groovy model I’d say. He really is an awesome figure just to have in general I think, and aside from those few minor issues, there’s nothing really detracting from the model to the point of abandoning it. If you like minotaurs or Tauren, and are considering getting the figure, I’d say go for it. Just make sure you don’t put him too far on the edge of a shelf above your bed, or he’ll elbow drop you in your sleep and his sheer weight will probably break your ankle or something, heheh. (I’m just fooling around).

   Also, I’ve given this ‘toy’ a very high rating for educational value, because I’m a weightlifter, and Korg here promotes physical fitness. Hoorah.

   Yep, it suffers from the same problem many of the figures of the Warcraft series have, an inability to stand when displayed. What’s really bizarre about this piece in particular is they went to the trouble of making a stand for him, but it’s worthless.

   I don’t know if the pegs aren’t long enough, or he’s simply too top heavy, but he drops right down quite frequently. I have to prop him up using coffee mugs.

   Another big miss for the line.

   When I first recieved mine in the mail i was like WHOA! AWESOME DETAIL! The other issues that I have had so far is that his thumb pops loose to easily (i’m thinking about supergluing it so i wont lose it) and his hooves are uneven. But other than that he’s perfect! Hes also BIG & HEAVY and since his hooves are uneven, don’t put him anywhere with glass around, he may fall and break the glass. He has already hit me in the head once. ouch.

    I was weary about buying this after all of the reviews that were on in about how he couldnt stand up right. But after getting this in the mail not buty 5 min. ago, i am pleased to say it was worth every penny. On its own it dosent stand up very well but if u put it on the stand that it came with there r no problem at all. Great product I plan on buying another one and would recommend this to anyone!!
