Let me start off by saying there are not enough bald-headed action figures in this world and that most of what are out there are basketball players. Here we have John Locke from the ABC Television series "Lost," played by Terry O'Quinn, looking at the door of the hatch first discovered at the end of "All the Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues," but probably representing the excavation Locke and Boone did during the next episode, "Whatever the Case May Be." The character of Locke has the same name as the English philosopher who developed his social contract theory as an alternative to the Hobbesian state of nature. Since the show also has (Danielle) Rousseau and (Desmond) David Hume, there is obviously some sort of dialectic developing with these characters that can only be appreciated by doctoral students in epistemology (I like the thought of philosophy professors having this Locke figure in their office someplace).The sculpt of O'Quinn's face is one of the best that McFarlane has turned out to date. The figure only has three points of articulation: the neck and halfway on the upper arm (right below the shift sleeves). There are lots of interesting possibilities for posing the head but rather limited options with the arms. In his left hand Locke has a water bottle and in his right one of his many knives; both of them are bound to the figure's hands by those little strips of plastic McFarlane likes to use (but the knife slips out pretty easily, so watch it). My only real complaint is that there were no instructions on how to put the jungle background behind the figure of Locke. First of all I should point out that what you see on the box (and elsewhere) showing a flat backdrop with a green piece of plastic running along the top is NOT what you actually get here. The backdrop is now curved, giving more of a diorama look. The two long black pieces of plastic are the vertical supports and the two somewhat curved ones are the top and bottom (the one with the spikes jutting out is the bottom). You have to remove the three little plugs (although you only need two). The vertical pieces go into the front of the bottom and the back of the top; then you slide the jungle backdrop into place and put the two slots into the little perforated holes in the backdrop and then slide the whole thing into place against the base. It sounds complicated but if I can do it, then you can too (but instructions would have been nice).Along with the figure and the base there is a full-scale replica of Locke's Walkabout Brochure Cover ("Fair Dinkum Deals!) and a little black box with authentic sound clips of Locke saying things like "Do you wanna know a secret?" and "Don't tell me what I can't do! Ever!" The sound box is like three inches square and it takes a while for somebody like me to get the screw undone to put in the batteries to punch the little button and hear the sound clips. You do not put the base on top of the sound box because then you cannot push the magic button, but after hearing the sound clips a couple of time what happens to the box will not matter. Also included in the "LOST" Series 1 set of figures form McFarlane are Kate, Jack, Charlie, Hurley, and Shannon, as well as a deluxe mini-diorama boxed set (with light-up feature). I can understand getting the complete collection, but why you would want enough batteries to run all of the sound boxes simultaneously is beyond me.
