I got my set today from Unaking. I was surprised to see Oscar's sunglasses were molded in opaque black with the lenses painted in gloss black for a dark sunglasses effect. The amber sunglasses must be a EE exclusive. Looks pretty cool though. -
Mine arrived the other day and they look great. I was particularly pleased to see how Oscar's briefcase resembled the famous one from the Kenner line.Leave a comment:

Here's my photo review of Oscar and the Fembot. Both come with identical packaging as the first wave.

Oscar's eye glasses are located in a plastic pouch on the side interior.

The back graphics are also the same as wave one.

I open mine in the same fashion as I do all my carded figures, by making three even cuts to form a flap.

They pull out (and return) easily to the package since the tension on the flap swings back into place.

Oscar's jacket and shirt are held together by Velcro. They fit nicely on the figure and look good. The tie is attached by an elastic loop that you can pull over the head, if you wish to remove. The pants have a standard metal snap. The shoes fit nicely (no socks) and the brief case is a solid molded piece. The head sculpt looks great in person and truly resembles the actor.

The glasses are an interesting story. They come with a folded instruction sheet and a tinsy tiny adhesive square that is flesh tone on one side. The suggested direction is to peel back this square and attach it BETWEEN HIS EYES.
Forget that. First, who has the fingers small enough to even peel the protective sheet back? Second, if you could, it would not solve the problem of the eyeglasses sticking out from the side of his head since there is nothing to hold them in place. So, in effect, he would look like they were pasted to his face. But no worries. My remedy? Take two little pieces of transparent tape and attached to the rims on both sides of the head (by the ears). That holds them against the head and if you rub the tape in nicely, it doesn't really show. PLEASE NOTE - These glasses are VERY brittle. Do not pull or try to bend the rims in any fashion! I'll explain in my next photo.

I immediately noticed something very familiar about these glasses... They belong to my Walter figure from the Big Lebowski line! Nice use of resources guys! They work quite nicely! But what I learned from that figure is these glasses are incredibly brittle. The slightest twist and they will snap. I had to super glue one of the rim temples back on my Walter figure. So be careful!

The Fembot is also a nice figure. I really like the head sculpt in person. The only place I grade down is on the paint apps. The factory application does not really follow the tech parts on the sculpt, so that gives it a somewhat sloppy appearance, if you study it closely. But from a casual view, it makes the right effect. No mask is included. Might have been cool to have one as a prop to pose with the figure. But really no big deal to me. That's an easy custom, if you want a face plate.

The outfit is made well and is attached by Velcro, including the belt.

The shoes are made of a firm rubber and fit snug. They remove easily and look good. Nice touch.

Overall I did not see any great discrepancy in the head sizes. This line fits well with wave one.


To conclude, I think both figures are excellent additions to the Six Mill line. Well worth the wait if you're a fan of the series. I encourage everyone to buy both figures, because these will not be out there in massive volumes and they're perfect companion pieces to Steve Austin. Priced well and a good value for the money. I believe I'll order another set to keep sealed. Well done BBP!

Great desk. I particularly love the "It's wild Steve, It's wild!" monitor at the end. Now, all you have to do is put a framed picture of Steve on his desk
