The figure sculpt is the same as the Sol Commander. It is really a good base for the figures with this line. The head is also similar being it has a gas mask on which is a necessity in the Acid Rain world. The Agurts have different attire and weapons than the Sol Commander. The upper torso is covered with a WW2-esque short trench coat and style of helmet. The figure does use a softer plastic for the hands, feet and head as opposed to other toy lines.
Articulation is the lines major strong point I feel. The figures have hinged wrists (one up/down, one side/side), ankles that move, double jointed knees, a head that can move up/down/side/side and single jointed elbows. This has been a standard on the two figures that I have seen and would imagine it will continue throughout the line. It does allow you to put the figures in poses that may be more difficult with other lines, especially any with gear. You can basically get about any pose you may want except a flat “prone” position. The head does not go far enough back to set up like that. Otherwise, the figure lets you have great posing for pictures or display.
