Jazwares – Fortnite 6″ Legendary Series Wave 1 Rabbit Raider & Skull Trooper Figures Review

 

Jazwares continues their line of Fortnite toys this year with these new 6″ scale figures currently available. The first wave includes The Visitor, Rabbit Raider, Wildcard, Skull Trooper (Purple Glow), Enforcer, and Havoc, and fans can be sure that more are coming. These figures are of similar design to Marvel Legends and have the quality and attention to detail to back it up. The 6″ figures, just like the 4″ figure line-up comes with a harvester tool, as well as character specific accessories as seen in the game.

What makes this line work so well is that former employees from Toybiz are working on this, which as you know this means they worked on lines such as Marvel. Each figure is highly detailed and comes with accessories as seen in the game, and each one is sculpted and painted with all of today’s techniques.

Thank you to Jazwares for sending along their Fortnite 6″ Legendary Series Wave 1 Rabbit Raider and Skull Trooper Figures for review. 

Availability: June 2019

Each figure is packaged on a window box with a blister card in the back. The window is seen on the front and sides and shows Havoc, his accessories, and around it is artwork including logos, character design from the game, and the back showcases the character with all of series 1 below him.

 

The Skull Trooper is mostly cast in black plastic, which is a black military uniform and has the purple skeletal deco on the front and back of his outfit. The purple deco has nicely done crisp lines highlighting some of the human skeletal anatomy. The sculpt also has some pouches on the belt, chest and left hip, as well as shin guards. The figure has three interchangeable facial portraits that each has a different expression. The detail on the faces are very nicely done and the tone of the purple is darker than on the body. Included with Skull Trooper is a Reaper harvesting tool, the Ghost Portal backpack, a Large Shield Potion, a Grenade and a Suppressed Assault Rifle.

 

Rabbit Raider is an Easter Bunny costume that’s pink with sculpted textures, bunny ears, and sandals that have the heads and ears of a bunny. The outfit includes a belt around the chest with Easter egg grenades, and armor plating on his left knee. The figure has three interchangeable facial portraits – a pastel blue bunny-modified hockey mask, normal face with glasses and without glasses. This particular outfit and design is one of the more colorful and eye appealing in the first wave, and we especially like how much detail went into this sculpt and his harvesting tool. Included is a Carrot Stick harvesting tool, the Hard-Boiled backpack, a Chug Jug, Boogie Bomb, and Grenade Launcher.

The articulation includes a ball jointed head, ball hinged shoulders, swivel biceps, double-hinged elbows, swivel-hinged wrists, hinged fingers, ball jointed torso, swivel waist, ball jointed hips, swivel thighs, double-hinged knees, swivel calves, hinged and rocker ankles.

Overall, The Fornite 6″ and 4″ figures from Jazwares are some of their most detailed and high-end figures that they’ve ever produced, and the attention to detail you see here shows just how passion has gone into make this line as good as it is. Make sure to go out there and grab yourself a set of these figures, which works great with other 6″ figure lines on the market.
