        He is GREAT! Hat fits on mine good, and I don't have any real issues, except that he should have come with a rubber chicken.

          yours looks better than the one I got, even the lapel pin sticker is more visible. Mine won't stand up and the hat/hair do not want to work together.

            Maybe I just got lucky with the hat fitting. Honestly though, if it wouldn't stay on I would have just glued it on. Who would want a hatless Sven anyway? For the price it definitely should fit correctly though.

            Mine is a bit of a pain to stand up, but not because of loose joints. I notice the shoes are a little big for his feet. The feet on FTC's fat body seem small. I see this as a very minor thing, and I plan to remedy it by adding some socks and/or stuffing the shoes with something.

              Kind of tempted to give it a try, but so apprehensive. That's a real shame to feel that way about product you'd ordinarily flip over.

                      The popularity of Svengoolie is always underestimated. When I saw there were only 1000, I knew they would sell out quickly.

                      They will be making more, so if you missed out, you will get another chance.

                        Just remember, only two people who have gotten one have chimed in. Mine is nice, so did I get lucky, or did Thunderbolt get a dud?

                          shouldn't they all be the same? I think after the 66 Catwoman I am done with FTC. THis one really bummed me out, loved watching him as a kid.

                            Yes, they should. I am just saying people might want to wait for more reviews before deciding to buy one or not.

                            Personally, I very rarely buy FTC figures because of their giant head disease. I was really bummed at how their Space Ghost came out. He is just one of many examples of figures I was really looking forward to, and was disappointed in when released. Sven was a very pleasant surprise to me, to be honest.

                              Waiting for the 66 Catwoman is becoming a snore fest, I actually had forgotten about it, thanks for the remind.
                              Hopefully she's worth the wait, both Newmar and Kitt, just keeping positive thoughts.

                                ^^^ I know she has the same glove set up as Batgirl, so that s strike one for me. Strike two is the crap body they continue to use.
