Ghost Rider is packaged in a window box with logo’s, comic-inspired artwork on the right side, and images of the set on the back.
Danny Ketch Ghost Rider is given a brand new body, and a reuse head from the previously offered Ghost Rider figures. He comes in his black jacket with spikes on the shoulders and forearms, dark grey pants, black boots, a spiked bracelet on his right boot, spiked belt, and a chain around his torso.
His articulation includes a ball jointed head and neck, hinged jaw, ball hinged shoulders, swivel biceps, double-hinged elbows, swivel-hinged wrists, ab crunch, ball joined hips, swivel thighs, double-hinged knees, hinged and rocker ankles.
Included with Ghost Rider are two sets of interchangeable hands (open grip, right fisted, left open), and the same chain that was included with a previous Ghost Rider figure that also came with a bike.
Ghost Rider is also shorter compared to his previous comic-inspired offerings, which are shown above. Space Ghost Rider however is a bit shorter than this new release. This reused head is also given some new deco on the skull, not seen before on his previous releases.
The bike pays a great likeness to the source material and features rotating flame tires, gauges, handles, and is mostly cast in black and metallic dark grey, with a brown seat. The flame Hellfire effects are used as stands for the tires to help this motorcycle stand, as it does not come with a kickstand this is the best option for it to stay up.
Ghost Rider fits perfectly on this bike, and he can also hold his chain while riding the bike.
The bike also comes with a Hellfire flame effect so you can pose the bike with the top part sticking up, and the effect plugs into the bottom of the bike. The foot rest can also be moved closer to the front tire, as there are two spots to plug it into.
Overall, Hasbro’s Ghost Rider (Danny Ketch) and Hellcycle Figure came out great and pays a great tribute to their comic book likenesses. This is surely the best Ghost Rider and Hellcycle offered to-date. This is surely an essential offering and something you definitely will want to add to your collection.
