Way awsome. I played with one at my friends house for like what a munit and it was the coolest thing ever! ive played with toys where they cant even bend foreward but these beat them all! They can do things i cant even do (besides using a gun :) like stand on one hand and do the splits and stuff! I sereously recomend them!! and I Am a good modelist so it was easy to put together but may need time to put together if you are not the best at putting things together. And I don't reccomend little infents around (small parts could choke!) but they are fun you can paint them, put the stikers on or just play! A WAY COOL TOY!!! BUY THEM!!!

All the reviews above said what I had to say. So go buy one first and foremost. The true drawbacks to Stikfas are the inevitable wear and tear of ball joints and the small size. Now I'm 16 and I don't have to worry about me swallowing a part or losing one (now where did I put that uzi?) and he isn't like a lego man small but they are only 3 inches. Now like I have experienced with the building toy knex and their form of lego men the ball joints begin to wear down after awhile. This presents a problem but at the stikfas website (stikfas.com) they have tips on how to keep them up and running. Fantastic toy and I look forward to their Samurai, Knight and horse, Fireman, Green, Dragon and rider, skaterboy, police officer and dog, and cool fat torso robot with a blaster and goldenbear on the sholder. Thats...11 different stikfas right there. Oh and hopefully the price gets knocked down to maybe 5 bucks. This army is costing some dough!

These toys RAWK! I'm an adult toy collector, and female, and I hardly ever take my collectibles out of their respective packaging, but I knew going in that these were coming out of the box! I'd been checking them out, reading reviews and was a bit shocked at the price and the size (3 inches?!), but then I bit the bullet and purchased one ... and now it is too late for me! Run while you can!

My fingers get sore during assembly, and being an adult it is still easy to not wait and read the directions and make mistakes. Luckily, these can be forgiving - in some spots. Ruthlessly painful in others. Word of advice: purchase some decent wire snips, a good set of tweezers and an emery board to aid in assembly. Lay the pieces out in the order they should go together in (instructions are pretty clear) BEFORE starting, and it will save a lot of bruised, pinched and poked finger-tips.

I can't stop playing with them! I just got the new Beta Female and Dragon set today, and even though the dragon is heavier, it is still easy to make it rear up on back legs, do hand (paw?) stands, and well... so much stuff that you will never get bored. I'm buying another dragon set and custom painting the dragon... ooh... possibilities! Run away! Addictive! Hide the kids!

This toy is the greatest. All the accessories and the STIKers can make for at least a million different figures!

Fun: Simply fun! You can pose them, play around with them, take pictures of them and put them on the website(at www.stikfas.com)

Educational: You can use you creativity here! Develop your imagination, then put some paints for your own customized piece

Durability: Solid plastic. Once the hand broke in half. But it's pretty solid.(If it breaks, you can contact hasbro's customer service and trade your braken one for another one)

It's easy to see this as a cheap set of punch out body parts with guns, but there's so much more. It is, in fact, a set of punch out body parts with guns (many, many firearms), but it is also a great model for drawing and scetching. Much like the model figures used for professional artists, this can be posed in countless and lifelike ways. The variety of guns and ladder (great for hand-stand poses) will be favorites of any burgeoning comic artist. It's deceptively (though stylishly) subtle box-design doesn't entirely do it justice to the amount of fun that can be had with this figure (although, as an adult toy collecter, I found the design immediately appealing).

This is a brilliant, excellent toy and I highly recommend it to any buyer at any age, especially those with any sort of visual art interests, especially animation or sculpture. It can be mean, cute, serious, or funny, and although guns are clearly in mad-effect, this is a toy without violent or (thankfully) nationalistic or patriotic overtones. I recommend it to everyone despite their politics. I, for example, am in favor of gun control, but like Tarantino-style action flicks. This fit that perfectly. It neither endorses violence, nor shy's from it. It's real, and is what you make it to be. For this, it's highly educational, highly fun, and as adequately durable.

It's one of the best and most stylish toys on the market I've seen lately. A must have for any collector.

Ok, I'm 17 and I don'y play with very many toys, just GIjoe and GIJ nockoffs, BUT, I do thoroughly enjoy STiKFAS, I baught an Alpha Male Mil. Green, and loved it so much, I went straight back to T'R'U and baught the Alpha Male Samurai. I think they rock and are the best thing scince the ball-joint{the joint used for the figure}. And the stuff that is included! ...I love fully poseable figs and these are the best. I reccomend them for all. Best part is the face STiK-ers, I love changing the facial expressions, dumb, to mean, mean to gas mask, g-mask to insane! AH, I must buy more! You buy one too!

This toy was created by a group of people who thought of EVERYTHING that was good and true about action figures. I initially scoffed at the near [$] price tag, but the gent behind the counter assured me that once I put this little man together I would not put him down. He was right. They are so much fun, almost too much fun...
To begin with the box shows you exactly what the entire toy comes with, it has the plastic sprues pictured on the cover so you know what you're getting. Opening up the box the sprues come in a Ziploc bag. Think about that, how many times have you been playing with your actions figures (G.I. Joe, Star Wars, what have you) and lost a gun? The bag was a `slap the forehead' easy idea that should have been done ten years ago when I was a kid (oh, to have the light sabers back from my Star Wars figs). Assembly is easy enough if you don't mind getting a file to remove some of the burrs, as the plastic is not scored very deep. In about 10 minutes you have yourself an action man, ready to do anything your imagination can conjure up.
My favorite part about this toy is that I was able to put this toy in all the poses I saw on the box, no false advertising here, the range of motion is phenomenal, and the accessories and guns simply make this the best stocking stuffer ever. The action figure also comes with a sheet of stickers, ranging from silly faces to grim-gas-mask wearing- counter-terrorist-S.W.A.T.-team-army-skull-jack-o-lantern expressions. My favorite part of the sticker sheet...The Mother heart tattoo. If this figure came in yellow, I'd have my own personal SCUD toy.
Now for some criticism: Too much fun is the key, for these little plastic dudes do wear down, but the thoughtful folks at Stikfas included extra pieces of the parts most likely to wear first, as I've stated before, they thought this out. However, you only get two sets, so make them last. Another point is the scoring on the plastic sprues. I got a Tan Stikfas and the amount of filling I did to make the edges smooth was more akin to assembling a model airplane than putting together a plastic action hero. If the plastic were cut better, I would be a much happier person. Finally, and this is the one point I feel is most important, the price. I shelled out ten bucks for a [$]piece of plastic. I would love to by a score of these guys but at [$] per figure, I simple cannot justify getting a squad together. Drop the price Stikfas, and I'll be yours forever. [$] is not gonna happen, [$] is pushing it. If you can get this product in the [$] dollar range, I'll buy a hundred of them.

Stikfas is great! They're so fun and have so many possible weapons that you can entertain yourself with just this little toy for quite awhile. The body moves in an almost human range of motion! Plus the stikers are a cool way to custimize your stikfas. I'm waiting for more versions to come out!

These figures, called Stickfas,are fully posable and come with a buttload of weapons. You can pose them in any way and make action poses too. They are so fun and all, but they don't have a playset, to make a fight scene. So therefore I give this product a 9/10.

I am not given to hyperbole and being well over 30 I have sene my fare share of cool toys (Micronauts, Star Wars action figures, etc.). Where many action figures now-a-days are superdetailed, Stikfas goes the exact opposite direction!

These are generic action figures whoose roles are determined by the equipment that they carry. Otherwise (and it is a very clever name), they are just stick figures. They have a huge variety of poses that they can be put into and generally balance very well gived the disporportional feet.

I have a few of them now and have had good fun. Assembling is a breeze, though I STRONGLY recommend using precision clippers when taking them out of the plastic trees. Otherwise they will not look so smooth as the CGI images from the website and boxes.

Also it would have been nice to have a display stand in the kit, as that would enable even crazier poses for your shelf or in my case desk.

Lastly the biggest problem is that you can not stop at buying one. There are so many cool figures by this company! They are a Singapore company, which is a great country so supporting them supports the economy of one of my favorite places!
