Personal Story:
First of all, I did not buy this...thing. It was given to me by a generous seller on Ebay when I purchased some Kubricks from him. Thanks man.
 
Introduction:
This is a Kubrick figure based on the character Chucky in the horror movie, Child's Play 2. There's a full set of 8 common figures depicting the "Good Guys". Each Chucky wears a different hat and represents a different occupation. Confused? Me too. There's also one hidden and very rare evil Chucky with a knife.
 

Sculpt:
This is a pretty boring figure. The one I have has a boring red toolbox. There are no unique features other than the hair. The whole figure is pretty bare in terms of the sculpt. There's no extra vest or accessories on the body at all. The majority of the details are in the paint. Which leads us to...
 
Paint:
...the paint! And what an ugly paint job it is. I'm not talking about how sloppy it is, I'm talking about the colors. Blech. This is one ugly-looking piece of crapola. The colors are rainbow vibrant and very hard on the eyes. The face is well-done but that doesn't help it from the horror of the body. I can't find anything good about the colors at all. Medicom really messed up this time.

 
Overall: D
One of the ugliest Kubricks from Medicom. I'm really confused why Medicom chose to make these. I would've liked it if Medicom had focused on making the evil Chucky a common figure instead. We could've had more fun with those. But Medicom decided (for whatever reason) to make these stinkers. Unless you're a hardcore Kubrick collector, stay away from these. Even a Child's Play fan would find these laughable.
 

Where can I find this?
You can find this in various online import stores and auction sites. Not too hard but not too easy either.
