 Hey guys, welcome back to Coming In. TV the only place on YouTube where all geek culture collides. I'm Shannon and today on the show, we're taking a look at Gremlins Ultimate Stripe. I got this at GameStop for $30. As you can see here, we have the original movie poster. We're here, got the box holding Gizmo and Stripe popping through. Then the little cute and then crossed out clever, mischievous, intelligent, dangerous. On the sides says Gremlins. Same with the other side and Ultimate Stripe. On the back, we have a gadget salesman is looking for a special gift for his son and finds one at a store in Chinatown. The shopkeeper is reluctant to part with the Mogwai, but sells it to him with the warning to never expose him to bright light, water, or to feed him after midnight. All this happens and the result is a gang of Gremlins that decided to tear up the town on Christmas Eve. And there you see Stripe in the film. Very cool. And this opens up, it's a window box. There you see him in all his glory. Holding the chainsaw comes with an electric chainsaw. Obviously not real, but you can tell it's an electric chainsaw because of the plug. Skateboard and a skillsaw blade. So let's go ahead. Also, the packaging, it does have a Velcro thing on there so it stays closed pretty well. However, I'm gonna take it out of the package so that we can go ahead and review this bad boy. Stay tuned. Okay, so as you can see, he comes in half a clam shell. Little extras are taped in here. First we'll take a look at the chainsaw if I can get out of there. Chainsaw looks pretty cool. Kind of looks like a DeWalt. But it's Braddington power cutter. 14 inch by 200. Love the detail they put into this thing. Burn lower hand guards, nighttime tree cutting, tub curb catcher, guard link chain made in the US. All right, and then shop master serious business dove. Is that what it says? Serious business Dave, heavy duty plug, two prong plug, doesn't actually work. Stationary blade, just plastic. But the detail is really nice on this. The button does not push in, neither does the trigger here, but still very, very nice attention to detail. Very cool. And this, of course, was made by NECA, which are known for their quality adult collectibles. Then we have this skillsaw blade, which again, it's plastic, not much to that. Skateboard, let's angle this down a little bit. Skateboard does roll, rolls very smoothly, really. And then stripe is held in here by a series of rubber bands. And of course it looks like somebody ran off with my scissors. So I'm gonna have to use a pocket knife to cut these rubber bands. Bear with me a minute, guys. Okay, so that took a little bit more effort than I was hoping for. I pretty much had to rip them out of that package. So here's stripe, my favorite of the gremlins, and really many people's favorites. He was the leader of the original gremlins. And in gremlins 2, there was another stripe-like character called Mohawk that started out as a leader, but then went rogue and became a spider gremlin and kind of went off on his own. And the brain gremlin took over from there. But stripe, who I always called Mohawk for the simple fact he had a Mohawk when I was younger, but he looks really great. Very good attention to detail. His mouth is on a hinge, opens and closes. That's as far open as it can go. And then closed like that. The hair, it's only attached to the top of the neck, or the bottom of the back of the head. As you can see it flaps. And that's because the head is kind of on a ball joint. It looks like, you can turn it, you can move it up and down slightly, not too much. Then the neck is also on its own joint as well. There's two joints, one at the head, one at the neck. The ears are also kind of movable. I wouldn't risk moving them too much because it doesn't look like they're really supposed to. It looks like they might be on a hinge, but I wouldn't wanna risk it. The arms, they do not move out to the side, but they do move around just like that. The elbow is on a hinge, very tight hinge. Be very careful. The more you work it, the easier it gets, but I would be very careful with that. Especially the first time, but loose. All right, there we go. And then the hands are on a ball joint. A ball joint hinge it looks like, rotated around. And then that hinge, I don't know, I don't wanna risk it. As you can see, there is a hinge there, but it's so tight, it's similar to these up here. So tight, I don't wanna risk trying to bend it, really. Same with that one, so tight. The legs turn just like that. Knee, there is a knee joint. Ankle rotation. There is also an ab crunch, very nice. He does have a little trouble standing on his own. You almost need a stand for him. However, most of the time the Gremlins, they walk like that, which is okay, I guess. However, standing on the skateboard, you can't really, there, there. He's kind of, nope. They need, he's got peg holes on the bottom of his feet, but there's no pegs on the skateboard. This should fit in his hand, just like that in his right hand. And then this one, let's see, it does his thumb fit in the blade hole. There we go. And he does balance just like that with the blades in his hands. It's balanced well like that. He is not wanting to balance on the skateboard though. Let's try moving his legs around a bit. He's not gonna be able to balance on that. It's gonna take far too long. Then I want this video to be to try and balance him on the skateboard. So, I don't know, they made him really top heavy. There we go, we'll just, we'll have him just like that. All right, so I hope you enjoyed this video of Nekka's Gremlins Ultimate Stripe. You can find these at GameStop for about 30 bucks. Not a bad price, I love the paint job. The articulation is pretty stiff and he's not that well balanced. They really should have included a display base or display stand. So anyway, that's it for today. If you have this figure, tell me what you think about him. Like I said, it's great sculpt, great paint job. The articulation is way too stiff. He needs a little bit more articulation, but that's just my opinion and he's not very well balanced. So, take care guys, don't forget to subscribe, like and share with your friends. Have a good one.
