Jack Sparrow has been an interesting phenomenon to observe in the action figure realm. Johnny Depp's likeness is so often missed and price point is not always a determining factor in resolving that puzzle. And we're talking everything from the little 3 3/4 inch figures straight up to the $200 Hot Toys first edition figure. Now the new Hot Toys DX figure has corrected the likeness issues and then some, so that is the exception. So where does this 12 inch figure by Zizzle fall? Well, I would place it as a lower end version of the Medicom figure. The Medicom figure had nice accessories but a generic likeness of Johnny Depp. But the likeness was close enough to enjoy the figure. The same can be said for this one. The head sculpt is actually much better than the paint job applied. If your an artist like myself, that can be corrected to make a fairly cool looking version. If your not, he does well as is. The outfit is above market value for a figure that retailed at $20.00 when brand new. I'm not surprised his value has increased since then. The outfit is well made, sturdy for play, and detailed enough if desired for display. If your into making customs, you can take 3/4 of everything here and make a very nice high end figure.Where the figure fails is from the waste down. The boots are molded pieces of the body and are not proportioned correctly around the ankle area. A bit too thin for my tastes. Since the boots are molded, the pants only come down to the knees, so you have to pull them down some when posing him so his knees do not show. Not a big deal, but a reminder of where they did miss the mark in production. His accessories include a sword, pistol, and compass (which does not open). The sword is made of durable, but soft, rubber. So there is little chance for injury from a sharp point since one does not exist here. His belts are nicely made and the buckles are made of durable rubber and painted to look convincingly like metal. His hat is made of much harder plastic but does fit his head fairly well. There IS a correct positioning for it though. If you look inside the hat, you will see an imprint of his hair braids on one side. That is to let you know which side seats in the back of his head to give the hat a snug fit.The hands are molded with his various rings and are effective for posing. The right hand is sculpted to hold his sword or gun. The left hand is not functionable. Overall, a very cool figure. And pics don't ever do it the justice compared to holding it in your hand and examining the figure up close. I would recommend this figure if your a Jack Sparrow fan looking for an alternative to the high end priced figures without losing a lot in quality. There are alot of redeeming features which place this figure well above the normal fray of toy-like characters. A proud addition to any Pirates collection.

This is a Christmas present for my nephew. I felt very lucky to have located the "elusive" Jack Sparrow.For what I was seeking, this purchase was considered reasonably priced. So I placed the order withoutdelay and was kept informed of the shippment and approximate delivery date. The item actually arrived early.It was exactly as described; brand new and with all accessories. I liked the attention given to detail.Not only did the item looked like the movie character, but the detail given to his clothing was impressive.My nephew is interested in pirates so I'm hoping this will get him to read more about the history of piratesand why these men and women chose this illegal and dangerous profession. My nephew loves "The pirates ofthe Carribean" movie series and will be ecstatic upon recieving this gift. Thank you for the opportunityfor me to make my nephew's Christmas a little more special.
