very disappointing-colors seem drab & poor articulation-size does not make up for what it lacks in colour & movement. bigger here is not even close to better in this case. cannot recommend it as a good model…

What comes in the box:
Torso, 2 large wings, 2 accessory wings, head
Mounting base
iTag
Assembly:
Assembly is easy but this toy is fragile, the hinge for one of the wings broke very easily. My first box had two “Right” Wings. I had finally gotten one that was “Perfect” (3rd Time was a Charm). You need to be exceedingly careful when putting this together.
Construction:
The body is hard plastic and the wings are a softer plastic. The head rotates and flexes. The wings flap with a click. The legs do nothing. Detail of this toy is excellent. Putting a Na’Vi is difficult with the less than flexible tail. The stand is very light, and the figure feels “Top Heavy” when placed on the stand. Be careful with this on the stand.
The iTag is more detailed than the other iTags – at least this has 2 functions of watching the Leonopteryx make a dive and roar, and rises, on top of the “Information” about the Leonopteryx. This is pretty limited, and we have a plastic bag of 15 of this iTags – quite a disappointment.
Pros:
Beautiful detail
Cons:
Fragile
iTag is a bust
Overall:
This is a nice addition to your collection of Avatar Memorabilia. For a toy, this is a wonderful toy, with the limitations, as stated above.

The size of the figure is impressive, and it’s certainly eyecatching with this size and the colour. The black and yellow pattern is very well done, although the body’s base colour is too orange and needs to tend more towards red. All four sets of wings are movable, the neck moves up and down and the head rotates. I was disappointed to discover that the jaw is not posable, nor the legs – these could easily have been mobile so they could have swept forward.
The face is detailed, though the second pair of eyes is missing and though the eye isn’t the flame-coloured mixture of orange, red and yellow seen in the movie, it would have been difficult to portray with the small size of the eyes. The blue crests and tail spires are in evidence. The smaller version of action figures fit easily to ride on the neck.
Altogether not at all a bad effort though could easily have been made better.

This model of the Leonopteryx from Avatar is impressive. It is huge and very well detailed. Its made of a dense hard rubberized plastic that is slightly flexible but not brittle or flimsy. The colors are just like the movie and the details are done nicely. I was expecting a cheap plastic toy, but it turned out to be a quality model of the the best creature in the movie. It comes with a display stand the attaches to the underbelly so it looks like its floating about eight inches and in flight. I could care less about the i-Tag gimmick that comes with the model and don’t plan on using it – its not part of the model itself thankfully. This is not a toy to be played with – its a display model. A note – the wings require adult strength to attach, so you need to build this for your child. I think the colors are correct, but I thought there was more blue in the wings, instead of black, but don’t know for sure.
