FINALLY!!!
Well, that was the longest wait ever for a figure. But now the Dark Archer is in da house! As well as Deadshot, both are great figures with many nice details. Click the LJ cut to see them all!
Some thoughts:
Malcolm has the same green and yellow arrow like Oliver, I guess I'll have to paint it black ;) The ones in his quiver on the back are black.
I am surprised about their elbows. Oliver in green Arrow suit had joints that were able to move up and down as well as turn around. Now both the Dark Archer and Deadshot have a joint in their right arm which moves up and down and in their left are one that only turns. Which means that the left arm cannot bend and is always stretched out. Deadshot can't even hold his weapon with both hands properly?
Malcolm also can't hold the scimitar I made in his right hand, I had to give it to his left for the fight. I took pictures of him sharpening it, but they are not quite like what we saw on TV. But in the fight picture, you can even see the sharp edge of the blade glinting in the sun. Because I did sharpen it indeed as well. Cool!
Also, I never noticed the golden detail on his boots? There are many layers at this figure, it is seriously cool and well done. Go grab them, it's money well spent!
In October we'll get Diggle and Felicity and Roy, I will have a nice collection soon. Also on their way yet are Oliver as Arrow.2 and the Flash.

I just wanted to add - I thought I had already, but better safe than sorry - that I have a new Dark Archer now and it turned out that both his (and also Deadshot's) elbows are indeed moving into all directions! So please forget what I wrote above about the stiff arm. He still cannot aim straight ahead, but it is better than before.
I had ordered one for a friend and this one's joints moved much better, also the knees. So we swapped, as she does not intend to do any poses. So when you get yours, move all the joints carefully, the elbows should both turn around and also go up and down. Really amazing.
If you want to get the bow into his hand, you can open up the fingers and the thumb a bit. Someone also made me a picture so I would know which is the handle he has to hold in his hand:

Thanks also for the up close pic of his bow and which thing is which. That's always weirdly frustrating when you can't figure out which way the accessories are supposed to go! o_O So that's great to have a reference! :D ♥♥♥
