Diablo 2, what a great game and worth the extended wait Blizzard made us go through to finally play it. As with Starcraft, The release of the game is accompanied by three action figures, The Barbarian, The Unraveler, and Diablo. You have to make one of the title character. The Starcraft figures lack detail and are pretty simple in their design. The Diablo 2 figures are super detailed. My personal favorite of these three is Diablo.
Diablo is a bit bigger than the other two. There's actually enough of a size difference to make him cost three bucks more in the stores I've seen him and he's packaged with his tail and a piece of his back separated. You attach them yourself after you open him. Diablo has highly detailed brick red scales over his body and down to his fingers that end in blunt talons. His belly, and under sides like the bottom of his tail are a liter ocher colour. The contrast between the two works well. His horns and talons are a bone white. He also has the red jewel imbedded in the top of his head. He doesn't come with any weapons but he doesn't look like he needs them.
Diablo is movable at his hips, waist, shoulders and neck. I'm really impressed with how well the seams are hidden on this figure but some posses leave him badly balanced. He'll fall over if left in the wrong position.
I highly recommend Diablo to all hard core Diablo 2 players and any one who likes collecting killer figures.
