Thanks for the review and the pics. :)

I like the archer a lot.  The target will be useful as will the klicky.  I'm not a fan of the knight, though.

I don't like the knight but I do like the archer.
I do like the stripes on the archer's pants, but his boots should have been in brown or black, not in this redish-colour.
I think the archer's hairpiece dates back to some medieval sets from the early 90's, no?

can you recreate the cover pose for the archer that makes it look like one hand his near the end of the arrow shaft and the arrow itself is sandwiched between the bow's "string" and the archer's wrist?

I'm curious if that pose can even be recreated without the assistance of glue or photoshop?

After some quick shoots this is what I got.

Lolz. No armguard. So much for the 'plus' tag.

Haha, agreed! That is unfortunate that he has no armguard, but other than that, the archer seems nice. I noticed that the quiver is of a different style than that pictured on the box; how many of those blunted arrows can fit in the round quiver?

The demon knight seems cool too, and I really like the fact that he comes with a good selection and amount of weapons. I find that some of the sets now are lacking in weapons and equipment for the figures. Though of course, he is missing holders and arm pieces like you said. The helm is much cooler than I thought it'd be though, and I'll be sure to pick one up when I can. Thanks again for this review!

Only three holes in the quiver and the set comes with a total of six arrows.
