00:00This is the part where you run. Here's your look at the brand-new Mondo Megan 1-6 scale collectible figure.
00:21New from Funky, featuring premium details like rooted hair and full fabric outfit,
00:26the Megan 1-6 scale figure comes complete with swappable hands and portraits. Megan is more than just a toy,
00:32she's part of the family.
00:34Seeing how things went with Katie,
00:36I don't know how much hanging out I want to do with Megan. Though, if you did want to pick this one up for
00:40yourself and hang out with Megan, she's available right now over on Mondo's site. The price for the figure right now is
00:46$215 or you can also go the route of four interest-free installments starting at $19.41 a month.
00:52A big thank you to the folks over at Mondo that did provide this sample of Megan that we can have a look at
00:56this review. Taking though the tape measure, Megan is gonna be pretty tall. In fact, she's actually eight and a half inches in height.
01:02We're standing roughly 21 and a half centimeters tall. And when you're comparing killer dolls,
01:08the closest one I have is the retro cloth release of Chucky from NECA toys.
01:12Size-wise, they're not gonna fit at all. But to be honestly fair,
01:15we never really got a true size Chucky. Closest one we have is really this one here.
01:19Also as well, I did want to bring in a character of a similar size.
01:23Here's what the figure looks like with Sam from Trick-or-Treat.
01:25This one was released from Trick-or-Treat Studios, and I think these ones fit a little bit better in scale.
01:30Although they're more closer to the sixth scale size, but really the same couldn't be said at all for Chucky.
01:36Maybe before we start talking accessories that come included with Megan,
01:38let's talk display stands. The figure does come with a circular display stand cast here in all black plastic.
01:43It consists also of two parts when getting out of the packaging.
01:47You have the main neck, and of course you've got the circular base.
01:50The slot here will guide then the shaped similar rectangular shape of plastic.
01:54They basically just snap together. You got yourself basically a really decent display stand.
01:58It doesn't have Megan printed across the front of it. I don't really think it needs to have that either.
02:02Just a regular black stand is really all we need.
02:05One issue though I have really with the adjustable neck is the fact I don't feel it's all that adjustable.
02:10This is, I'm guessing, supposed to fit around her waist. Although like if you're looking at it,
02:14there's no really way that you'd be able to pry the two prongs apart from one another.
02:18So I think if anything I would probably either attach it on to maybe to Megan's arm,
02:22and that might very well be the place that it's supposed to go on to,
02:25because I mean clipping it around her waist is really never going to happen.
02:28I still though like that we got ourselves a display base.
02:30The stand, if anything, I might just end up using on its own, or as I did at the beginning of this review,
02:35might even just have like this kind of off to the side and just Megan standing against it,
02:40not necessarily clipping around her.
02:42As for other offerings, Megan first includes a stylus.
02:45This stylus is probably one of the smallest accessories that the figure comes included with,
02:49so just be careful taking this out of its plastic prison that you don't drop it on the floor.
02:52It's cast well here in plastic. It doesn't look like it has any additional paint perhaps to it.
02:57She does also have a hand.
02:58Now the hand is really for holding the guillotine arm of the paper cutter,
03:02but really too you could also use this hand if I don't drop the stylus.
03:05You can take this and if you wedge it in between her pointer and her thumb,
03:10she holds the stylus perfectly fine.
03:14Let's put that off to the side.
03:15I guess also while we're talking about the guillotine arm,
03:17she does also come in clear with that.
03:19She rips this off in the hallway and then of course pursues in hot pursuit.
03:23This does fit into her hand. It's very easy to do basically.
03:25One thing though about the plastic though for hands is that the plastic for the fingers is pretty soft,
03:30so you shouldn't have any struggle at all getting the handle of the paper cutter blade in there.
03:35And I do like that it holds it on an angle.
03:37It doesn't have it upright, so it looks a little bit more natural when you put it into her hand.
03:41Speaking of putting it into her hand, I guess we've already done that first.
03:44Let's do the second step of that.
03:46If you wanted to put this into her arm at least, the hands themselves are pretty easy to remove.
03:50Just when you remove it though,
03:52just know though that you can be getting a peg every single time you remove the hand.
03:55This is one thing though I like that Mondo is doing.
03:57Instead of having to worry about one set of pegs that has to be shared around other hands,
04:01they just simply add a peg to each hand,
04:03so you don't have to worry any time that you're removing them.
04:06I wish more companies would do that.
04:07Anyways, you're basically going to be taking the gripping hand,
04:09just fit that very easily into her arm, and now Megan's arms.
04:13Everybody quickly run.
04:15While she perhaps has a paper cutter in her hand,
04:18one neat little feature that she has is she does have a hand that's already holding an accessory.
04:23And if you're wondering what that accessory is, no, it's not a cookie.
04:27The figure does have the ripped off ear.
04:30First of all, I think that's gruesome.
04:31Second of all, I think that's clever that they chose to mold this into her fingers
04:35instead of worrying about it being a separate accessory
04:37that, like the stylus, could so have so easily been lost.
04:42I think having the ear molded permanently to her fingers like this,
04:45doesn't look like it comes off at all, is the smarter route to go.
04:48Maybe it could come off, maybe with a little bit of fighting,
04:51but I'm just going to leave it the way it is,
04:53and I'm going to have this attached into her hand.
04:54The only unfortunate thing about this though is just by the way it works in the movie,
04:59she happens to share it on the same side as the one that's holding the guillotine paper cutter.
05:03So you're unfortunately going to have to choose which hand you want to use,
05:06or maybe you might be able to pry this out.
05:09I don't really want to do that because I don't want to lose something like this, like the ear.
05:13Is everybody hearing me, by the way?
05:14Okay, good.
05:16Let's put that off to the side.
05:17The figure also, already out of packaging, she does technically start with relaxed palms.
05:21I've already removed one of them, obviously, in favor of the gripping hand.
05:25And the figure finally does come included with a pair of closed fists.
05:29Each quite small, each well-painted, each having all their own dedicated peg.
05:34More companies need to do this.
05:36Let's put that off to the side.
05:38She does also come with a swappable head,
05:40and you're probably wondering what these two things are down below here.
05:43This is kind of cool.
05:44I really like this.
05:45Let's first of all just get the thing that's going to cause damage out of her hands.
05:49Now that Megan on her own isn't going to cause damage.
05:51Let's just get her to stand here for a second.
05:54The figure does also come included with these adjusting tools.
05:57They sort of look like they're measuring spoons.
06:00I don't think you really want to be around what measuring she's doing.
06:03Measuring more carnage than anything else.
06:05They seem to be identical.
06:06I guess my only guess is that if you happen to lose one of them, you have an extra one.
06:10But they work the exact same way.
06:13Either one of these heads, by the way,
06:14and she has a battle damage head and she has a neutral expression head,
06:17both have adjustable socketed eyes.
06:20So you can actually move the eyes around if you want to.
06:22To show you how that works, I guess what I could do is maybe take the damaged head sculpt first.
06:27Which would already be a strong reason why you may want to pick up more than one Megan.
06:32Simply just so you can have both figures displayed on your shelf
06:35with the two different stellar sculpts.
06:37The thing I also really like,
06:39and you may notice me liking a lot of things that Mono's done here,
06:42is I also really like the way that they've given a secondary tool
06:45for displaying the figure's head sculpts.
06:46How many other companies are doing this where you're getting a separate piece,
06:49like a little mannequin's bust,
06:51where you can attach the head that you're not currently using with the figure
06:54and yet still manage to display it with the figure when you have it on the shelf.
06:58Now the heads simply just pop off.
07:00So when we remove this,
07:02basically you just have like an adjustable neck.
07:03I don't even know why these have to be necessarily adjustable.
07:06Having these only just being in staction alone would have been fine.
07:08Like if there was no movement at all, would I be disappointed at all?
07:12Not at all.
07:13But yeah, there's some adjustability there to the neck.
07:16You can move as well the torso back and forth.
07:18I really don't even think they necessarily need to do that.
07:21There is also separate sections here for the arms.
07:23I thought initially, would that be there maybe for holding hands?
07:28You could just put the extra hands in there.
07:29But no.
07:30The pegs are though a little bit bigger than the pegs for the hands.
07:34I mean it would also look a little bit strange that you just have these little
07:36smaller hands sticking out from a bust like this.
07:38I'm sure they're probably using this body for something else
07:41and that would be one of the reasons why there's some posability at play here.
07:45I guess you could also take maybe the tooling.
07:48Now the tool pieces also don't fit in there as well.
07:50So it's basically just like a torso piece and it just so happens to have
07:54sockets on the sides for arms that you don't really get after arms.
07:58But one thing though I did want to do again, I'll just put that over there.
08:01So we're going to do this though with the damaged head sculpt
08:03and it would also work the same way as well for the neutral expression.
08:06I suppose actually while we have the damaged face sculpt for Megan in hand,
08:09we can actually look at how much work went into this piece.
08:13If you've seen Megan, I know we've already got slated a sequel on its way.
08:16I'm definitely looking forward to seeing a sequel.
08:18Megan was an interesting looking character.
08:20Prosthetic pieces for the most part.
08:22There may have been some influence CG in there as well,
08:25but for the most part they tried to go with practical effects
08:28and it looked quite good in the film.
08:31I mean it had sort of an eerie look to it because while it did look like a girl,
08:33there was something clearly off and more robotic about her.
08:36It really had a more artificial look.
08:39One thing though artificially added on the back of the figure's heads,
08:42how's that for a segue, is some rooted hair.
08:44The hair though is a really good quality.
08:46And sometimes too also when you're looking at these,
08:48you can also see the way that they attach them onto the heads.
08:51But like there's quite a bit of full foliage here when it comes to her hair.
08:55Like there doesn't seem at all to be bare spots at all on the figure's head sculpt.
08:59Now again if I want to show you guys how the eye socket tool worked,
09:04on the bottom of this each of the heads are going to have their own dedicated pegs.
09:07So you don't have to worry about those.
09:08Those are only going to be rooted on the inside or socketed inside the head portraits.
09:13But if I just kind of move the hair out of the way here,
09:15can you see there's another ball joint just at the back there?
09:18It actually does look like a ball joint.
09:20What you do is you take the little tool here.
09:22And what you take is the end that looks like the spoon.
09:25And you just put it against that ball joint.
09:27You kind of have to put it in on an angle.
09:29But when you get it in place, it sits right against that ball joint.
09:33And if you do it all correctly, when you move that back and forth,
09:37it also moves her eyes.
09:39I just want to make sure I've got this going.
09:40There we go.
09:41Yeah you can actually move her eyes.
09:43It's a little harder, I noticed, with a damaged portrait
09:45than it was with the regular expression face.
09:48But you can move the eyes.
09:50They seem like they move also up and down as well.
09:52Although, again, with the damaged face, I noticed it was a little bit harder
09:56to get those eyes to move.
09:57I'll show you guys what it looks like on the regular expression.
10:00But again, I want to spend some time obviously talking about
10:03how good the head sculpt looks and how equally well painted it is too.
10:07You can see sort of the under skull of her face underneath.
10:10Obviously, this is all ripped away we see at the end of the movie.
10:13Very, very nice though.
10:14Very nice.
10:15Put it off to the side for at least right now.
10:17I did want to take regular Megan's head off just for a second here.
10:21And when you remove it, don't be alarmed by the fact that there's no ball joint behind.
10:24The ball joint is still going to stay inside the head
10:27while she's decapitated right now.
10:29Let's go ahead and just...
10:30I'll take the tool here because I've already kind of been playing around more
10:33with the regular expression anyways.
10:35Just, again, fit that against the ball joint.
10:37And when you do that successfully...
10:39Maybe this one's going to work a little bit better for you guys.
10:41You can see there.
10:42See how the eye was moved to the side?
10:45We'll kind of rectify that and make it a little bit more centered.
10:47You can also move it to the other side there as well.
10:50I think that's a really neat feature.
10:52Again, it didn't really need to necessarily be included.
10:55But the fact that you can get in there and you can adjust the eyes...
10:58Although, again, it's a little easier, I noticed,
11:00to do it with this head sculpt than it was to do it with the damaged face.
11:03By the way, though...
11:04By the way, showing you guys the differences between the two faces.
11:08Very similar of a sculpt.
11:09The eyes look a little bit larger here for the battle-damaged face.
11:13And, of course, you've got the very more apparent rip across the top of her forehead.
11:18The hair, again, on both of them is really quite good.
11:20Although there's less hair, obviously, on the battle-damaged version of her face.
11:25But, like, the hair is nicely done.
11:26I mean, it's a very soft hair, too.
11:28And, like, if you're looking at it, there's no bare patches at all.
11:31I'm sure if you pried this away...
11:32If you move the curtains aside, you probably could be able to see...
11:35Yeah, there's a little bit of bareness where those are rooted into the plastic.
11:38But they have put quite a lot of hair on Megan's head.
11:43To put this back onto, obviously, the body here.
11:45Snaps it in place.
11:46You could probably go in there, obviously, and just kind of style the hair a little bit better than what I have right now.
11:50I've kind of been more kind of interested in the body and, like, the way they've done the fabric.
11:55I haven't spent, honestly, as much time really worrying about the way her hair is styled.
11:58But don't worry, I'll go in there and fix that a little bit later.
12:00Nice hair, though, overall.
12:02Well-painted face, though, too.
12:03And maybe you can probably see I've got the eye just a little bit off to the side here, like that.
12:07By the way, the trackball, when you are adjusting it, it moves both eyes collectively.
12:11You're not just going to be able to move one of them.
12:13I never really understood that with companies, anyways.
12:14Why they would put ball joint or adjustable joints on the back of each eye.
12:18It always ends up looking like one eye is kind of wandering off to the side.
12:21The other one eye may be looking at you.
12:23I think you really need just to have one ball joint that moves both of them at the exact same time.
12:28The paint is really good on this.
12:29It's a little more of a paler expression, a paler complexion.
12:33They've nicely painted the eyebrows there, as well.
12:35Tiny, tiny little eyelashes.
12:37And again, you've got a little bit of warmth there in the lips there.
12:40Actually, they've airbrushed a little bit of darker pink around her eyes there, too.
12:44Just, again, to give a little bit of life.
12:46What's interesting, though, about her body is you would imagine looking at a figure like this
12:50and the way that they've given her her dress, like she has in the movie,
12:53that underneath all of this, you would be seeing just a standard sixth scale body.
12:59No, you're not, actually.
13:00When you start to lift the curtains away, though,
13:03you'll notice underneath her body is actually robotic.
13:07Again, saying something I've already said a couple of times,
13:10they didn't need to do this.
13:11They didn't need to necessarily put a robotic body underneath.
13:14I mean, granted, one thing, unfortunately, it does limit a little bit is the poseability
13:18on this figure.
13:18I've noticed she's a little harder to kind of turn the waist and turn the top of her torso.
13:22It moves up and down easily enough, but I've noticed there's a little bit more restrictions.
13:25But, you know, the fact that I don't know how many people would really look under the hood anyways,
13:30but the fact that though they would have sculpted as much as they did for a figure
13:34that would for all intents and purposes,
13:36you probably would just end up displaying her like this on your shelf anyways.
13:39Attention to detail is always covered here by Mondo.
13:43Speaking of attention to detail, too, I think they've done a really nice job on the dress.
13:46The dress looks like it actually has had a tie here piece.
13:50Unfortunately, though, like when you are moving the bow around,
13:53sometimes it does lift the collar up.
13:54You want to just make sure that they're down here,
13:55but it looks just as good as it does in the film.
13:58She's got the striped sleeve underneath there as well.
14:00Now, if you were to move the arms up,
14:02it looks to be like they are using just a regular six scale body.
14:05I don't know if they've used the body again or if they used it in a previous release.
14:09I mean, with how good the body turned out,
14:11obviously they'd have to tool something differently for the torso
14:13if they wanted to release a figure of this size again.
14:16But, you know, again, like she's done really, really well.
14:19The tailoring done also to the dress, it looks just as clean underneath here.
14:23Like sometimes, though, I've seen six scale companies when they do fabric outfits,
14:28you sometimes see loose threads,
14:29you see overlapping of fabrics underneath where they've taken the patches
14:32and they've sewn them overlaying one another.
14:34But like it looks a very clean looking finished dress underneath.
14:37Looks, again, just as good as it does on the outside.
14:41Underneath, of course, obviously she has herself the tights.
14:43The tights cover over what will be double hinges in her knees.
14:46We'll be looking at that in a second.
14:48The only thing I really worry, though, about is when bending the knees,
14:51I wonder if that's going to eventually start to hook the fabric on her tights.
14:56And maybe perhaps that's going to cause a rip.
14:58I mean, I don't plan to really have her exaggerate poses.
15:01If maybe anything else, I might just have her displayed in one of her dance numbers.
15:05But again, like really nice figure.
15:07I mean, she's also got shoes that...
15:09Shoes almost do seem like you can remove them.
15:11I'm not going to try to take them off
15:12because I know they'd be even more difficult to put back in place.
15:15And again, you've got some decently sculpted soles.
15:17A little bit of scuff, a little bit of scuff, but not a whole lot of it though.
15:21Okay, so looking at the figure's articulation.
15:23So the head's going to rotate all the way around
15:25because it's just working on a standard ball joint.
15:27Just fix the hair while we're doing that.
15:29Head looks down.
15:30Quite a lot, actually, too.
15:31And looks up.
15:32You can also rock it back and forth as well.
15:33I think there's an eeriness as well to having Megan
15:36with her head slightly tilted to the side
15:37and her eyes just looking over off to the angle like this.
15:41As for her body, again, like the only thing I will say is
15:44by making the body as accurate as they did to make it look robotic,
15:47it does seem like it loses a little bit of posability here.
15:50There's not really a whole lot you can really do moving the torso up and down
15:54nor really moving it back and forth.
15:55There really does seem like there's some resistance there.
15:58I'd almost even really say, like,
16:00instead of sculpting this to look like a robotic body,
16:03I mean, how many people are really going to be looking under the dress anyways
16:06other than obviously this guy for this review?
16:08I would have just rather made the torso just a standard one
16:10so that there'd be a lot more posability that you can get out of this figure.
16:13As you are turning it, there does seem like there's some resistance.
16:17I can turn it, but it does seem like there's a lot to kind of hold me back
16:21from preventing from being able to do a lot more.
16:23She does have a waist swivel though, so you can move it back and forth.
16:26Her arms easily hinge out to get a t-post.
16:29You can move them forward, you can move them back.
16:31She does seem to have as well a swivel in her bicep,
16:33double hinge on the elbow, and the hands rotate all the way around.
16:37As for her legs, Megan's legs split that far out.
16:40You can move them forward, you can move them back.
16:42There's a swivel there at the top of the thigh, double hinge on the knee,
16:47and then there's the regular articulation, of course, in the ankle,
16:49back and forth, back and forth rocking this way as well.
16:53Again, if you have any difficult time to have the figure to stand,
16:55there's always, of course, the option of displaying her with the figure stand.
16:59Even though, again, with the figure stand, this just doesn't open up nearly as much.
17:03So I feel like, if anything, they designed this more to clamp onto maybe the sides of her arms
17:07because there's no way that you can have this clipped around her waist.
17:12I mean, if you clip it maybe around the top of her thigh,
17:14but again, I feel like that may snag the material that they've used for the tights
17:17and I don't want to cause damage to that.
17:19By the way, speaking of damage,
17:21seeing as we've spent this whole time talking about the regular expression,
17:24the regular portrait, which again, super good sculpting going on there.
17:28To show you guys what that looks like, though, with the battle damage,
17:30let's just pop that off right now.
17:31It works the exact same way.
17:32Take the peg, plug it in place, just sort of fix the color there as well.
17:37My own personal collection,
17:38the way I'm certainly planning to have Megan displayed on the shelf,
17:41I'm going to go the route, I think, of just the regular looking Megan.
17:44Waldo, to be fair, though, a very valid argument to pick up more than one of these
17:48because you really would hate to think that this would have to go back in the box.
17:51As for the other accessories the figure comes included with,
17:54some of the cool touches that I really like that they added with this figure
17:58is the severed ear.
17:59I mean, it's such, again, a gruesome accessory to include,
18:03and yet, being that it's referenced from the film,
18:06I like, though, that Mondo included this as one of the options available.
18:09And of course, there's always the go-to,
18:11probably my go-to when it comes to displaying the figure.
18:13She comes, of course, with the guillotine arm from the paper cutter,
18:16though, again, we only really see it for that one scene.
18:18It's such a memorable thing, just as memorable as the dance that she does in the movie,
18:23that I couldn't leave that back in the packaging.
18:25It's going to be definitely displayed with Megan on my shelf.
18:27Can everybody still hear me, by the way?
18:30Okay, good.
18:31If you lend me your ears for a second,
18:32one thing I did want to mention, though,
18:34in the final looks wrap-up review of Megan here
18:37is that even though the one hand already holds the severed ear in her fingers,
18:41technically, what you could also do, too, with the paper cutter
18:44is if you put it in her other hand and twist it
18:47so it's sort of ledged against the thumb and the pointer finger,
18:50she does actually hold it.
18:52It obviously is not intended to hold the paper cutter blade,
18:54but there's one way to work around the idea of having her holding
18:58both the ear and the blade at the exact same time.
19:01The figure, as you can see, is currently being displayed with the battle damage head sculpt.
19:05One of the two heads that come included with this figure
19:07for, again, a price point I think is really quite good, $215.
19:12Now, again, it is currently still in stock,
19:14so if you guys are interested and would like to get Megan for your collection shelf,
19:18I think Mondo has done one of the best services for Megan here.
19:22The figure looks fantastic,
19:23taken, of course, like she's pulled right from the screen itself,
19:26with two available head options,
19:28several different hands,
19:29several different additional accessories,
19:31and the display stand.
19:32$214 is not a bad price at all to get for this figure.
19:36Still, though, the display stand is one thing, though.
19:39I don't think it's going to really work all that well.
19:41Definitely going to not work around her waist.
19:43I think, if anything, you could maybe clip it around,
19:45clamp it around her arm,
19:46or maybe around her leg.
19:48Hand, if I think, is the better of the two options,
19:50because I think with the way that the tights are,
19:52the tights, as their name would be,
19:54are pretty tight around her legs.
19:56I would hate to have that snag against one of the clamp pieces on the waist clip,
20:00so I probably will just end up displaying her, I think,
20:02without the display stand instead.
20:05As did mention, though,
20:06the figure of Megan is still available right now
20:09on Mondo's website as of right now.
