   James Cameron’s Avatar Na’vi Leonopteryx Collectible Figure
   
   very disappointing-colors seem drab & poor articulation-size does not make up for what it lacks in colour & movement. bigger here is not even close to better in this case. cannot recommend it as a good model…

   This model of the Leonopteryx from Avatar is impressive. It is huge and very well detailed. Its made of a dense hard rubberized plastic that is slightly flexible but not brittle or flimsy. The colors are just like the movie and the details are done nicely. I was expecting a cheap plastic toy, but it turned out to be a quality model of the the best creature in the movie. It comes with a display stand the attaches to the underbelly so it looks like its floating about eight inches and in flight. I could care less about the i-Tag gimmick that comes with the model and don’t plan on using it – its not part of the model itself thankfully. This is not a toy to be played with – its a display model. A note – the wings require adult strength to attach, so you need to build this for your child. I think the colors are correct, but I thought there was more blue in the wings, instead of black, but don’t know for sure.

   The plastic this toy is made from, is flexible, so less change of breakage. It was easy to put together, for an adult. Some of the parts need some strength, so I don’t recommend a child putting it together.

   Overall, the detail is nice. The underside is almost devoid of markings though. But the rest of the creature has plenty of detail. The clear stand is a nice way to display it.

   Overall, this is not really a toy to “play” with. Its more a model to be admired, but its durable enough to withstand some light play. Though I don’t recommend this for young children. I got it for my daughter who is 11 and she isn’t one to beat it to death, so its working out just fine.

   I just wish the Ne’vi’s braids actually connected with the leo like in the movie. But the Ne’vi’s hands can hold onto the natural “reins”

   This Leonopteryx is a beautiful figurine, and I use that term lightly because it has a 20 inch wingspan. It’s huge! But then again, it was huge in the movie, and the scale of it matches the Na’vi figures correctly. The coloring is beautiful, looking down on it from above, but the underside is mostly one color. The anatomy is very well detailed as well, but with the lack of other colors on most of the body it leaves a little to be desired. It is a very sturdy model, and the wings can be (with some force required) switched between two positions, however they’re somewhat subtle in difference. The tips of the wings are clear, stiff and pointy! You’ll put an eye out with this thing if you’re not careful. It’s a bit difficult to get the Na’vi figurines to ‘sit’ on the Leonopteryx convincingly, and I don’t think if you were ‘playing’ with it (flying it around) the Na’vi character would stay in place. But I think it’s beautiful to look at and makes a stunning addition to the Avatar collection.
