McFarlane Toys – We Happy Few Bobby 7″ Video Game Figure Review

 

McFarlane Toys is now offering their We Happy Few The Bobby 7″ scale figure. This is a horror survival game, and is described as a “A Game of Paranoia and Survival in a Drugged-Out, Dystopian English City.” We Happy Few is a new video game that will be coming out in the April 13th, 2018, and is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Steam. McFarlane revealed the first figure of a new potential line – Bobby, the constable of Wellington Wells.

Patrolling the streets of Wellington Wells, Bobby is always dressed in his constable outfit topped off with his distinct “Happy Face.” Always on the look out for potential “downers,” residents of Wellington Wells should always have some “joy” at the ready when they see Bobby nearby.

Thank you to McFarlane Toys for providing their We Happy Few Bobby 7″ Video Game Figure for review.

Availability: March 2018

 

Bobby stands at 7″ tall and is sculpted in a British Policeman uniform as depicted in the 1800’s. Unlike Wellies and Wastrels, The Bobby is thin, tall, stronger and more resistant to beat, and part of a police force known for patrolling the roads of Wellington Wells, occasionally killing Downers met in the streets, investigating crime scenes and guarding specific areas in Wellington Wells such as Joy Detectors, the apple tree and bridges. There only weakness is to give them a bottle of scotch and they drop strong items that the protagonist can pick up without penalty.

 

 

These officers are seen in a dark blue police uniform, black shoes, with gold buttons on the uniforms, a gold police badge, a black belt with a silver belt buckle, gold trim around the collar and cuffs, and on their helmet there is some sort of flashlight to investigate a crime. The helmet is sculpted to their heads, and their faces have a smiling grey mask over their heads, which almost makes it look like The Joker had something to do with this. His facial details includes blue eyes, and white teeth, along with a long thin smile that looks menacing. The helmet is attached to a strap on his chin, and he has black hair with a light grey wash over it.

 

Bobby comes with an alternate gas mask head, empty beverage bottle, Billy Club, and alternate hands. His articulation includes a ball jointed neck, swivel-hinge shoulders, swivel-hinge elbows, ball jointed wrists, waist rotation, swivel-hinge hips, swivel-hinged knees, and ball jointed ankles.

Overall, this is a fantastic figure sculpt with a great likeness to how he is seen in the game. The attention to detail in the sculpt, especially the facial details is excellent, as well as the gas mask head sculpt and other accessories. Fans of this upcoming game will definitely want to add this figure to their collection.
