Six Scale Sickness

This is my first Enterbay purchase and although pricey, I'm very impressed. It's cool to see a 1/6 company going the extra mile with innovative little ideas like moving eyes and magnets etc. I think there is still some things that need to be improved upon but Enterbay is making moves in a good direction and with all the solid looking releases coming up they are proving that they are a 1/6 force.

In these tough economic times its always nice when a company releases a must have figure at the bargain basement price of... $320 USD!!!!!!!! It's difficult to try and do an objective review with the weight of that much green bogging you down. When you consider the quality of HT releases for around the $150 mark a $320 price point does seem a little excessive. That $320 tag isn't including shipping mind you.

The edition size is 5000 pieces, so I assume he couldn't have been that expensive to produce especially since you consider a new BL3 body from Enterbay costs only $30, leaving two head sculpts, two outfits, and a wooden board to make up for the remaining $290 of the price (okay, there is a little more to it than that, but still).


Sorry about the price rant but this is such an expensive 1/6 piece that the cost needs a little extra discussion. Now let's be honest with ourselves and admit you're going to purchase another BL3 body for this figure set, so realistically you're looking at $350 before shipping and just shy of $400 with shipping. If you get the extra BL3, you'll have 2 figures for around $200 each, which sounds more affordable, right? :P

I managed to pick him up for $280 shipped using an eBay coupon so I got quite a bargain but I don't think we are going to see too many at that price. Okay, on to the review!

The box is fantastic and it's pretty big, but nothing is wasted. There are some great graphics on the front and inner panels and the whole presentation just looks really slick. The handle on the top of the box is a nice addition, and the case opens with ease. Inside you're greeted by a little poster with images of the figure and once that is removed, you'll find your wooden diorama base. Under the base are two boxes, one that contains Bruce and the other that has the extra goodies. The actual figure boxes are pretty plain but I like the foam inserts used to hold the figures. Overall, it's a really nice box with great presentation which is probably another reason for the high cost of the set.


Bruce comes with a lot of extras. The diorama base as you can see from the pictures, looks great. It's well crafted and pretty sturdy as I found out when my son pulled it off the table onto the floor. You get two head sculpts with three different hairstyles: two classic "cool" Bruce and one slicked back "nerdy" Bruce. The Hair is jet black but well textured and looks very good.

You get 2 outfits with socks and shoes a Chinese Sick Man of the East" Chinese calligraphy painting which is a replica of the sign Bruce breaks after his dojo fight from the movie.


There are seven hands in total - two fists, two relaxed, one nunchaku holder, one splayed finger hand and one accusation style pointing hand. They are all very well sculpted and easy to switch out. The nunchaku I was surprised to find is made from quite a soft rubber. This helps when you want to tuck it under his arm but sometimes they look a little bendy.


The stand has a lot of potential but its propensity to fall apart whenever you move Bruce has been driving me mad. The metal stand sits in a round slot at the base, but it doesn't clip in and neither does the clasp that slots into the top of the metal stand used for holding Bruce. Any lifting motion pops it out from the top. Apart from that, the stand is very versatile with the clasp being able to rotate and move in multiple directions. The height is also very adjustable, however it's all just very finicky.

Last but not least, you get a certificate card with serial number.

I think most people who don't end up getting a second BL3 body will display their Bruce in the "navy blues" seen in his iconic nunchaku stance from the movie. However, when you first take him out of his box he is clad in the classic white suit. I think Bruce comes out of the box in his white outfit simply because it is way easier to get on. The shirt and suit have a couple of press studs on the front as closures making it an easy outfit to remove. Both are made of a nice thin material and fit perfectly, but there was a bunch of loose threads I had to cut off, which was annoying.

On the blue outfit, the black belt sash attaches at the middle point to the back of the pants and can be pretty finicky when you're trying to get it to look good. There are two press studs at the front of the pants to cinch the waist and a fabric wrap with press studs on the ankles to cinch up the bottom of the pants. The detail on the blue shirt is fantastic; they use actual toggles for the closures on the top, but these are a BIYOTCH to actually close! It takes some long nails, mega patience and midget finger magic to put the toggles through the loops. However, it's well worth the effort because the blue kung fu suit looks great. I do have a gripe with the look though, as the suit has two oversized pockets on the chest. I don't believe these are in the movie so why did they do that?

Bruce's white outfit comes with black socks and white sculpted shoes that look fantastic and have real tied laces. (I tear up at the thought of ever needing to re-tie those shoes... will need more midget finger magic!). The blue suit has white socks and a pair of cloth slip on kung fu shoes that look great but are hard to slip on over the socks.


The BL3 is a pretty nice body, it feels heavy in your hand which i really like. The Articulation isn't as good as a Medicom RAH or a Hot Toys True Type, but without a shirt the body still looks pretty damn good. Personally i think the arms are a little skinny but they have developed the body to look like Bruce with that slender, ripped style. The plastic "skin" is a little shiny which is a shame because the face doesn't suffer from that problem. In the wrong light it looks like an obvious texture change between the head and body.

The thing I find strange is that the body doesn't have at least a cut joint at the ankle; the feet can only stick forward unless you rotate the leg at the hip. I wish they went for more articulation in the ankles especially considering Bruce's habit of kicking people in the face in weird positions.

There is the same issue with the wrists; more articulation has been sacrificed for a better looking arm. I can see why they made this design choice but it's still frustrating trying to get his nunchuck into a good spinning position. You can really only rotate the hands to change their positioning, and because of this I find myself wishing even more hand sculpts were included. The neck and proportions of the body are pretty good and you can get a lot of movement out of the head, although looking up isn't a strong point.


At the end of the day you can get Bruce into some great poses, and that alone should be more than enough to satisfy a fussy collector. The great look of the body makes up for the articulation short falls. I think it's also worth noting that the figure has clicky joints instead of smooth moving joints.

The head sculpt is where Enterbay knocks it out of the park. The sculpts are AMAZING! They look so real and the skin tone is pretty much perfect. This is the reason to buy this figure. It really looks like you have a mini-Bruce on your shelf. There is no mistaking who it is and it looks so lifelike. I am nervous that they are going to start slapping around the other figures in my collection when I leave the room!

I'm a really big fan of the way Enterbay put the head sculpt together. You get the face that slots over a neck post with a magnet in the top. The hair piece has a corresponding magnet on it and when you put that piece on, it's all held in place. On the inside of the head, you have some movable eye balls so you can have Bruce looking up, down or however you like. The eyeballs look simply stunning and are fun and easy to play around with. The default sculpt is a somewhat intimidating, but calm looking Bruce and the second head is fight face Bruce. Honestly, I cant rave about how good both these heads are. The sculpts make the figure worth its high price tag and you're definitely going to want a second BL3 because keeping one of these sculpts in the box is a crime.

II'm not ever going to need another 1/6 Bruce Lee after this (I hope!). He is expensive, but honestly this for me is the ultimate when it comes to 1/6 Bruce. If you compare this to the Medicom Enter the Dragon Bruce which I also own, you are going to start laughing. Enterbay is in a league of its own when it comes to Bruce Lee collectibles in sixth scale. With all the price hikes this year from all the other toy companies, Enterbay's offerings aren't looking as pricey as they used to, but hot damn $320 is still a lot of coin.

This is the best piece of Bruce Lee memorabilia on the market and if you want to pick him up he is still in stock at enterbay

Enterbay's Fist Of Fury Bruce Lee gets a 10/10
