I bought this becuase I'm a huge fan of NBC's Scrubs. The figure I'm reviewing looks a lot (albiet not perfect) like Zach Braff's character of JD. In the photo, the figure is even wearing JD's characteristic blue scrubs.



However when the figure came to me, he had on green scrubs, something I didn't notice until I had gotten him out of his package. His right arm was loose in the socket, swinging freely, while his other joints held a pose properly. His lower arms from the elbow down, his legs from the hip down and his head are all PVC type material. His leg joints don't allow him to sit properly, leaving his legs splayed apart; his knees don't bend 90 degrees and while I could rectify this with a good hobby knife, I won't try it out just yet. Perhaps I could trade with someone who has a male nurse figure with blue scrubs on.



His molded on shoes aren't sneakers, but are just dress shoes painted white. There is a prominant "nurse" tag on his scrub top front, which I scratched off so he could be an intern.



The X-ray and stethescope are rather nice, well painted. The stethscope has small prongs on the earpieces that fit into holes on JD's... I mean the male nurse's ears/head.



Overall, its a good piece if left in the package, but for me, one who likes to actually display and play with his figures in scenarios/dioramas, there's much to be realized. Better hip and knee joints, blue scrubs, and perhaps meatier arms (come on, he's a stick under that molded on scrub suit) would be better.

My husband is a nurse and he was so excited to see this! It promotes the wonderful career of nursing to the males who don't usually think of it as a male profession.

My newphew has just become an RN and was thrilled with the gift.

This is a great product that I enjoyed giving my friend who just graduated from nursing school. However, I was charged over $30.00 for this product. When I received it I saw that the seller had a price tag on it for 10.99!!! I do not appreciate the 200% price mark up!!!

i got this gift a few years ago, and thought it was perhaps the funniest gift i have ever recieved. not only is the idea great, but the back of the box has a ton of fun facts about male nurses. perfect gift or gag present
